@FinalGirl I never considered removing someone from the reply chain when stepping in to say "Might I suggest you don't fuck with my sis." Adding it to my to-do list.

@samlitzinger Learning from John Oliver that the Free Press and the for-profit unaccredited University of Austin founded by Weiss with Palantir cofounders Joe Lonsdale and David Sacks (aka Trump's crypto guy), are both funded by the billionaire founder of Kind (hq'ed in Austin), I discovered that I will never buy another Kind Bar again.

And unlike a lot of boycotts that I was already participating in by default (e.g. Walmart), I used to buy a Costco-sized box of them every month or two.

It's usually out of character for me to make fun of someone's looks, and beneath the dignity of the Fediverse for me to do so, but am I alone in thnking that Utah rep Trevor Lee looks like a toilet brush who wished he was a real boy, or at least to be Sporky?

Even if I'm alone in this, he deserves all the same respect as any other homophobic nazi.

I'm sorry to everyone asking queers to save Netflix from Elon Musk and Chaya Raichik, but for those of us who left years ago, suddenly returning to that abusive relationship is not an option.

Wait. I'm actually not sorry. Just go on about your day.

21 strikes for Christopher Sanchez before he threw the first ball, down and in, in the third inning.

24 is the record though.

@leedohm @mhoye Pennsylvania has a bunch of them. Most noticeable in Amish Country: Intercourse and Bird-In-Hand. Now if we also had Jilloff and Vibe, we could make pretty much everyone happy.

@mavnn @mhoye Ain't that a kick in the pants.

@skinnylatte My wife and I met at an International Women's Day march in San Francsico with a contingent from the "BA Cyberdykes" mailing list. Because we'd both grown up on the East Coast, we accidentally found ourselves walking a half block ahead of the rest of our group as we talked.

Later, I admitted that I'd gone hoping to score points with the woman who'd organized or group, and had also broken up with a girlfriend about two weeks before. So had Chris!

I scream, you scream, we all scream for epidurals.

@evan I haven't been to a casino since COVID started, and even before that I'd dialled back to maybe twice a year because it wasn't as much fun going to play poker without my Dad after he passed.

@WarnerCrocker Does it become a felony if it has extra jalapenos?

@WarnerCrocker He could be mayor in a heartbeat if he was willing to primary Cherelle Parker, which he's not. State AG is not out of reach, but with a first term Republican incumbent it's going to be a squeaker.

@WarnerCrocker I object to their use of "customers" rather than "unwilling victims"

@pixelpusher220 @ai6yr I've been suspicious of those portable camera installations ever since Lowe's started putting them in their parking lots two years ago.

But since they also abandoned their DEI programs with Trump's election I've already switched away from Lowe's to the local Ace/TrueValue franchises.

@Mastodon @johnonolan "Today, Ghost's annual revenue is over $8.5M while total publisher earnings on Ghost have now surpassed $100M." That implies a very livable ratio, certainly better than Steam, Apple, or any other publishing platform.

Please, Ghost, never enshittify your payment model.

I only even heard of three of these, and not finding any on lists of Yuri games, so *shrug*.

AFAICT #Fedicon is not being live-streamed, but will videos be up on PeerTube or other streaming platform later?

Every time you see a cybertruck on the road you have to shout "punchnotsy" and poke your sibling so they're paying attention and know to give the driver the finger too.

@skinnylatte I don't know if it's still good, but when I was there for a conference, some friends took me to the Crown and Anchor, and I remember that the food was good but mostly it was to introduce me to a flight of Scotch.
