You can't make a billionaire without breaking a few laws.

I get a mite queasy when I see junk from the '90s labeled "vintage"

Oooohhh boy, waking up at two ack emma has got to stop. Makes a rough start for the day. I did get some stuff done, though. Made the heating pad cover a friend asked for, then more sewing, including the reconstruction of a back brace into a belly brace. I have more than enough shopping bags now […]

Huh, just remembered it's my onlybegotten daughter's birthday.

It's okay, Bunky - the US is still a world leader. There's just been a little change in catagories. Now its tops in corruption, hate, AI slop, narcissism, hypocrisy, environmental destruction, disinformation, bullying, waste, disease, misogyny, bullshit, willful ignorance, and general […]

Hokay, I got my refund fromEthernet Servers Ltd., and we part amicably. If you need a need a very affordable webhost and don't mind an AI option, they seem to have very good feetch and I would say the support is on the ball! It's too bad...I'd like to love them better.

Shite, I have to reboot because I tried to delete an accidentally fropped item off my desktop without using the file manager and that horks the file manager. Weirdest Mint bug I know of.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

I should do something cslming for a while, origami or sewing.

Does anybody know of an HONEST webhost that's affordable?

ohgrod trauma I just did a high-speed search and grab for a new webhost. It's getting too close to renewal time with my current AI-contaminated host. Next comes the migration, and telling my ex to go to Hell or Hades, whichever is closer. And I still want to get off WP, and, until I do, my […]

Wuh. Spinnerface day. 😵 💫

What a damnably appropriate day to find new Internet radio to love.

In my unsolicited opinion, Muppets Treasure Island is the runt of the litter, an overdressed gass bubble, a moldy slice of pie. Maybe I'm just not in the mood for the worst songs ever....

I start downloading a batch of recently purchased audiobooks - after sucking down a few gigglies of other stuff - and sheeeeit low drive space warning. 😱 [sigh] Didn't I just install a bigger drive last year? 😭 It's tough being a file hoarder 🙄

@rikiwilchins.bsky.social 2026 Feb 12 AP: After Natl Park Service takes pride flag down from flagpole at NYC's Stonewall National Monument, city leaders -- including Manhattan Borough President -- and 100 activists & residents show up to raise it again.

Too busy sewing today to toot. I feel a touch guilty because my shopping friend thought one of my bags was for her. I could have given it to her, but I made it special for me. So I promised her a bag. Hers has quite a sampler - bits and pieces galore.

Effective immediately, I will be moving all my project's documentation from Discord, to frozen food review section of walmart.com.

I wish apps would remember that I've rated them already. 🙄

TL:DR; The Salesforce CEO at a company's annual all hands gathering asked international employees to please rise in the audience, then made a "joke" that ICE agents were in the back of the room ready to nab them. Guillotines for billionaires is the moderate choice at this point

REVENGE

LOL I was mourning my rusty Spanish yesterday. Today I'm trying to figure out if a thread in Italian is tech or politics.

oyfg don't wait a month to go shopping again Five bags. Ooooof.

Not the best night's sleep, and, since I finished it on my side, it took ten minutes to get my land legs. Thank whatever there's nobody around to distract and irritate me by hollering "Watch out! Careful!" and grabbing at me as I weave and wobble around the kitchen like a drunk about to take a […]

I get to go grocery shopping tomorrow! The "mail-hole" in the snowbank needed widening for vehicle door access, so I had at it for a bit, then made a path to the trash carts. As I was putting the shovel away, I noticed a man and woman looking over the situation, talking in rapid Spanish. Then […]

Into the third novel of the series, and I found a TYPO. There was a miscombobulated sentence in an earlierone, and various instances of noticeable repetition and *moderate* "as" overuse. I feel like I should be taking notes and sending them to the author. Knowing me, I probably will 🤣

I love audiobooks since my eyes have gotten really cranky. However, I don't regret starting on a non-audio series. I'm om the third one already. Thanks to an improved sleep schedule, my eyes aren't getting too tired.

Um...no, there wasn't a hard object in that piece of dried apple 😬

In response to Trump’s horrific meme portraying the Obamas as monkeys, I've photoshopped his face onto the body of a well-known racist, rapist, insurrectionist responsible for killing millions of people.

Abuse and overuse of the word "as" is a writing habit I deplore. If a writer doesn't notice the annoying repetition, they should use word frequency analysis once in a while to get rid of the fleas. It's a good thing to do anyway, because it can reveal all sorts of bad habits. How many times do […]

The MtM bindrune, stitched at last by the Mad Sewist (actually I detest that trendy word - well, I detest everything trendy, so what odds). I'll make a nice shopping bag to stick it on.

No matter how you do it, text extracted from a PDF needs a lot of editing. Not just the chopped lines, but split and run-together paragraphs, null characters, and initial letters flying off because they were drop-caps. Global S&R takes care of some. A text editor that joins lines intelligently […]

I need to dig into some sneaky browser settings. Problem is, Furryfox (like most browsers) remembers its last window size. When there is a small pop-up window, closing that pop-up after closing the main window sets the opening size and style for the next-opened window. So what, you say, close […]

There are snowplows out there [shaking boots emoji]

Coffee, coffee, do your thing; My innernet has lost its ping. The bird of morning will not sing, Nor rise on Pheonix' flaming wing Until I feel that caffeine ZING

I made meatballs well in advance of dinner time so they could develop their flavor like awesome leftovers. 😋 😜

How am I today? Well, kinda like... https://mastodon.seism0saurus.de/@hourlyslothbot/116008471882048886

I am done with trying to say nice things about stuff I don't like. If you say anything nice about any feature of something you don't like, people think that you actually like the thing itself. Thumper's mother can go fuck herself.

Jus sittin here watchin the quaint customs of the local tribe 🍿

This one I made for ME. When you have two black and white floral prints from the early thirties, and you've been jonesin for something red, black and white (Goddess colors).... I finished it last night at dinnertime. I was in no state to fiddle around with […] [Original post on mastodon.sdf.org]

The best pentacle EVAH. So cool getting gifts for Imbolc 🤣 🎇 😍

A friend once confessed his uneasiness at watching a post with highlighted text flying off into the cloud. Yeah, I agreed, what if it falls off?

I want the Electric Mayhem to play at my funeral. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7wHNp8qeEQ&list

I finally get done checking my email...Mr. A. Friend wrote one line - "I'm gonna warm up the truck" I know wht that means. I'm getting prezzies 😃 (so is he - or should I say sew is he - considering what I've been up to lately 🤣 )

BOTANY! https://www.youtube.com/shorts/M5JlX5NGxRk

Only two daily things in my life are scheduled. Breakfast can not occur before eight AM., and dinner not before eight PM. Somehow, for me, this fixes insomnia, weight stabilization, and post-coffee grogginess. Things I should have figured out years ago 🙄

The coolest thing I ever did in my life I did when I was about 13 years old. I was obsessed with robots after seeing Star Wars, and wanted to build my own, but we were poor and I had no money. I decided to make a robot that was self-driving and autonomous with whatever we had around the house […]

Chicago last night supporting the general strike #chicago #minneapolis #iceout

Tucson, Arizona has risen up against the regime and its violent ICE forces, the brave people of Tucson declare: "Tucson doesn't stand with tyranny" "We must win, for your brothers and your sisters, friends and family, we have to fight" #3E #GoodVsEvil #NationalStrike #ICEOut
