Today I just got my 9th #covid19 vaccination, this time with Moderna mNexspike. The first time was in December 2020. And I STILL MASK WITH #N95s.

TIL that the Earl of Carnarvon who owns Highclere Castle (which plays Downton Abbey on TV) is descended from the 5th Earl of Carnarvon who worked with Howard Carter in Eygpt. Yes, Tutankhamun Howard Carter. www.highclerecastle.co.uk/visit-us/egy...

When global warming was nudging four degrees, and millions had already died, a lifeline came from the most unexpected place. Astronomers stumbled upon the spectral band for Stellar Nucleofusion Management Protocol, and adjusted the solar output to stabilize planetary temperature. The Plutonians […]

Recently got bit by the #downtonabbey bug and have been slowly chipping through the episodes. I opted to purchase them on media since it makes it easier and I don't have to chase them around. Not entirely sure why it didn't gel for me before, but I'm enjoying them a lot. It might also have to do […]

Me, to myself: ok, this is a completely weirdo thing that imma gonna post that will be of interest to maaaayyybe two other Mastodon weirdos, here goes! [gets trending bot notification]

#dinkum is a cute game and it's hitting my #animalcrossing button without having to play it on Switch (though it is coming to Switch soon!). I had been looking for a substitute to run on my #rogallyx and it definitely fits the bill. It has a very strong Animal Crossing feel.. Except the part […]

Disrespect boundaries, I lose all respect for you.

*thinks he'd like to make a video about the hike, but isn't sure if he'll remember to film enough stuff* *comes back with 841 clips, including 61 separate GoPro shots of the non-POV kind where you set up the camera, walk by it, then walk back and collect it, tripling the distance walked*

Do not go gentle into that good night, We should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray. Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light

The new wheelchair arrived. I took it out for a thorough test last night and it’s literally everything that I could have hoped for~ Never in my life would I ever expect something like this to happen. I cannot understate how impact this is to me. How much […] [Original post on transfem.social]

"Kirk should not have been killed. On that, all Christians ought to agree. But to argue that he should be praised is to suggest that racism and the Christian faith are compatible. And who really wants to be on the record arguing that?"

Well, the 1st Amendment was nice while it lasted.

Working from my Timeline data to refresh my memory (...which meant having to write a conversion script since Google Earth somehow can't import Google Timeline data...), I've worked up a reasonably accurate reconstruction of the route I took hiking around SF Bay […] [Original post on clacks.link]

This is where I left the airport, 17 days, something like 225 kilometers and countless blisters ago. The circle is closed.

That was one of my best talents, finding weird workarounds for stubborn bugs... usually the bugs were stubborn because management refused to allow Dev to write a patch. In fact, I was fired from my last FTE tech job because I invented a workaround for a database bug, but the workaround itself […]

Recently was looking for a 24-48 port gigabit switch with PoE for the house and decided to look at old stuff, and found a #cisco 3850 for $90 bux with everything. Couldn't beat it. My only grumble is that the rack for it is near the den, and the whiny fans were getting to me. I was digging […]

Since I was walking right by, I had to stop in to see the Bay Model again. Even on this scale, walking around the whole thing is a bit overwhelming.

Proton Mail Falls Under U.S. Jurisdiction If you read their Terms of Service, at first glance, they reference the laws of Switzerland. However, because they now have offices in the United States — along with registrations, trademarks, copyrights, and patents in the U.S. — they also cite U.S […]

Y'all, what an awesome set of #polyamorous books with triad or thoruple representation! I appreciate you. :) Relatively empty still on MMM, but I suspect that's the genre's problem. I now have a spreadsheet. 🤣 Which I am happy to mail to anyone who wants it - […] [Original post on social.coop]

Yes, Linux can run without RAM. 🤯 If you setup a hard drive (SSD) with a large enough SWAP space, the system will treat the SWAP as Ram. Yes, Linux can run without a HD. 🤯 If you have enough RAM, you can boot Linux up from a USB, and run Linux without a hard drive, as it loads everything into […]

Made my first individual lasagnas in my 2C Souper Cubes and I'm kinda worried I did something wrong--since I wanted to take them for work lunches I baked them in the trays before popping them in the freezer, and my trays are all stained now. Should that have happened??

God I love a good spite house.

This is good reporting by Alex Brown at the Washington State Standard, thoroughly debunking the GOP claim that the two firefighters arrested by ICE at the #beargulch wildfire weren't actual firefighters. Brown found documents proving that they were all classified as firefighters and had been […]

Something interesting is happening to the fedi, I keep running into more accounts of people based in my side of the world, those close to East Africa (I even saw a Shona poem today, from further down south). I know it's not a mass migration but it's a snail spreading the word. Not a cheetah. So […]

An evening making music with my @vixyandtony.bsky.social bandmates @vixyish.bsky.social , @tfabris.bsky.social , and @stealthcello.bsky.social for no other reason than because we love each others' company and love playing together. My heart is comforted and full tonight. 💜💜💜

Yesterday, in addition to doing 17 km, was exciting for two reasons: I finally turned north to start heading up the east bay, and I got to tour CrunchLabs thanks to friend of the channel Evan Barnes! But now I'm getting into what looks to be a pretty boring […] [Original post on clacks.link]

I've been doing a re-watch of the series #extrapolations on #appletv Love the story-telling and the cast. But it is a little hard to watch it AND deal with the smoke outside. The orange light and the smell of camp-fire. AQI at the nearby sensor is at 142. And I gather from other reports it was […]

It's like a camp fire out there. :/ Thankfully N95's are plentiful in the house so I don't have to cough my way to bringing the bins back up from the curb. Bleah.

Tell me where you are from using only two words: Green Jell-O

and out and hand-dried. after taking these I sprayed it down with wd-40 original to displace hidden water - hopefully - and now it’s out in the sun to dry #bikerepair #BikeTooter

Dr. Oz is wrong and what Dr. Oz is saying is dangerous.

#washingtonstate just issued a public health standing order to allow individuals 6 months and older to access #COVID #COVID19 vaccines from a health care provider: https://doh.wa.gov/sites/default/files/2025-09/COVID19VaccineStandingOrder.pdf. I ~think~ the impact on this is that people between […]

… I miss my false belief that people gave a damn about other people.

I miss going to cons. I miss it being safe to go to cons.

I never liked having Bob as an Uncle. He always wanted to make things seem easy while putting a lot of emphasis on the familial relationship.

Seriously, Warwick? What the actual fuck, my dude.

Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.
