  It’s called the gay community

  A lot of journalists are really bad at using the machine they use to do their job and it shows.

  Also what do you have against blind people

  Have you been on bluesky? There’s lots of furries there

  If you go on Bluesky they will tell you. Lots of people saying that they feel isolated because there is no algorithm feeding engagement, and federation doesn’t lend itself to finding your friends from Twitter easily without one of those migration tools people were using. Then another chunk describe Mastodon users as a “HOA” because someone told them to put a CW on something.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Regular loaves of bread have pre-slicing technology figured out, so what is it with bagels and English muffins?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I once ate at a residence hall cafeteria where they had these fuckin bagel guillotines that you basically positiones your bagel in as if it was the head of a hapless French aristocrat and you could be all like vive le revolución and chop those fuckers. But they’d all seen so many bagels without sharpening that they required great strength to slice through a chewy bagel. In fact they probably slowed down the process.

  The moral of the story is that bagels are hard to slice on a large scale.

  I buy all my monitors on Craigslist because I am broke as hell and people unload 1080p monitors with chunky bezels cheaply

  I’m hoping regulations get in the way of this. The FAA is barely comfy letting people fly a drone beyond line of sight with a waiver, fully automated flight for untrained passengers is going to take some doing.

  Trust me folks an EV is on everyone’s mind with gas prices like they are these days. Nobody can really afford either thing, amirite?
