@Snapai This may or may not be officially supported, but in practice, it does work - copy the full url (including the https) to the post on Bluesky into the search bar in Mastodon/etc, then prepend it with "https://fed.brid.gy/r/". That should trigger Bridgy to grab the post and relay it on the […]

One of the things that I hate about ADHD is how it just weighs on your closest relationships, and you'll never even realise until it's too late. How can you know you forgot something when you can't remember it? How can you know you didn't hear what was said when it never registers?

@anewsocial I want to boost a bsky post on here (well, thread, actually) made by someone this morning, who joined the bridge after posting it. Can it be made possible to request links to bridged posts from the bot, in such a way that the record is created retroactively but not published to […]

Our foster rabbit, Asante’, has been with us for two months. She’s gained half a pound and grown the softest new coat. 🌟 The vet cleared her for adoption with the caution that future humans will have to watch for possible dental issues. But he says her teeth look […] [Original post on sfba.social]

[Tylenol, autism, statistics, and memery] According to the only study good enough and also showing a correlation, the incidence of autism among prenatal tylenol users is unchanged (controlled for parents), but parents of autistic children (likely on or near the spectrum themselves) are 1.6% […]

idk I just think it's interesting how a school can go "yeah smoking is bad but here's a safe/accepting space if you need it" and it actually works

Is the opposite of sitting in the nosebleed section, sitting in the nosehair section? :dragn_think:

Watching bsky people react to the predictably awful censorship rules taking shape next month and people saying "We'll just have to make bsky 2!"... .... Hey yknow. If you want to do that. I've heard of a few webapps you can throw at some hosting to make your own, and fediDB says over 30k […]

If functional immortality (mortal but no old age decline) was a thing we'd all take a lot better care of ourselves and everything, I think.

Give a man a fish, you'll feed him for a day. Teach a man to phish, your access to this toot is about to expire, click on this suspicious link to verify your account!!

Y'all, Anxi does awesome art and fast, and Azure makes awesome music. If you've been holding out on supporting either of them, now would be a great time!

I noticed that sodium acetate and sodium citrate are usually treated for kitchen chemistry like things you have to buy separately, which is fine if you need a bunch but for just a little in water, both salts immediately say to me "baking soda and vinegar (acetic acid)? Baking soda and lemon […]

Kinda disappointed that a google search for "eschew" doesn't immediately return "gezhundteit".

I still think about the pre-cryptocurrency version of the Ripple concept. The idea of short circuiting currency somewhat, by just using computers to trade IOUs and personal credits directly, using a web of trust. I still want that. You can have what I can make as long as you make good on it and […]

Why did the fediverse reddit replacement choose to use the "community" structure for topics, instead of hashtags? The thing with subreddits is that I think people are looking for people discussing a specific topic, not a club that shares a topic's name, usually.

With all the documented impacts of stress on physical health, why is all of the advice even in medical journals just "try to relax and not worry about it - meditate and go for a run, and keep a gratitude journal"? Not that a valium or THC prescription is what I'd expect, but you'd think there […]

Tonight I spent 4 hours in artistic hyper focus, and 3 hours gaming, and honestly they felt about the same, wonder how much creative work I could've gotten done in the past if I hadn't gotten sucked into games so much. Not that I mind games, just sometimes I spend far more time on them than I […]

Hyperfocusing makes my butt hurt from sitting in the chair far longer than I should. But I don't get this often, so I'm keep going. >:( #adhd

insulting a whale who's bad at eating like "krill issue"

Running D&D last night, a battle that inadvertently wound up being too easy, and the warlock managed to roll a nat 1 (critical fail) firing a firebolt, and narrated it just missing and sinking into the pool of cursed water in a cloud of steam. So I just spawned a steam mephit out of it, to the […]

Clicked a bsky link, and was greeted with this. A new feature! that Mastodon has had since....well the commit date on github lists Nov 2019?

A fitted sheet that looks like a pile of treasure, a flat sheet that looks like scales and wings, and pillowcases that look like a treasure chest and a gelatinous cube. I need to design this.

All the gyal pon the dancefloor wantin' some more what- Come, Mr. DJ, won't you POOTIS SPENSER HERE?

So I just ran across this cool thing: https://tenbluelinks.org/ It helps you set up your browser's default search so that it just points directly to Google (not proxied through a 3rd party site), with &udm=14 tacked on the end to tell it not to return AI summaries. Specifically, encoded in […]

cuando me preguntan que por qué no me voy a bluesky

My character earned an epic boon in D&D last night, but I can't help but read "epic boon" as if Jon Bailey (honest trailers guy) was saying it.

My seeds are finally sprouting after a month, I'm so excited! These are TREES! Looks like freshly boiled tea leaves provided the sterile damp environment they needed.

Whatever happened to people chatting and socializing on the internet? Most of my group chats seem to be dead except for the occasional social media forward

My music player was playing "Vale Decem" - 10's theme, which ends with the Tenth Doctor's regeneration (and would normally segue into Murray Gold's "The New Doctor" for 11) .....but then it shuffled to "Cartoon Fridays" from Cartoon Network. Now THAT was an unexpected regeneration!

Measuring proportions on my own hand, realized there were two circle arcs going on here. Like, arcing from the base of my index finger, centered on the radius (thumb side of the wrist), I get the length of the base of the pinky. And then arcing back the other […] [Original post on dragon.style]

This makes me wish we had a DIY ecosystem for the patterns themselves- digital libraries of open/public domain designs, easy to build or buy plotters for either fabric or tissue, etc. https://circumstances.run/@davidgerard/115129645086157197

Reading about how mobile devices are getting so locked down that, in the US at least, you can no longer root a lot of them. I wonder how long til my next tablet solution is to slap a big touchscreen on a Pi instead :P

I just found out that in my notes app, in addition to → to type → I can also just type →. Rar, rarr, rarr! → → →

[Self reflection, no +/-] The games that are most addictive to me apparently are the ones that give me a quick sense of mastery. A vacation from imposter syndrome, at least internally.

It's pretty funny that the only reason @anewsocial's "Bounce" only works to move from Bsky to Fedi rather than both ways is because of commonly expected federated social network features that Bsky refuses to implement. Not really a surprise tho... it took Bsky HOW long to get around to […]

🎵 Wake up in the morning staring at T Kitty (Hey wake up, *prrrl*) Grab my PJ's, run out the door, open some cans of Tiki, (meow!) Before I start up my day, feed a couple of cats, Close them in sep'rate rooms so they don't get too fat I'm talkin' nailclippers […] [Original post on dragon.style]

I would like to be ultra wealthy so I could just throw sufficient money at the people who could actually solve modern tech issues, like the utter lack of any concern for UX or privacy. Of course, being the sort of person to want to throw sufficient money at people, I'd never have it in the […]

Last night on D&D, our orc bonk (barbarian monk) asked if she could use Liam Neeson as an improvised weapon. #dnd53 #ttrpg #outofcontext

Was trying to solve a massive logistical problem to untangle the D&D session I'm running tonight, then I reread the statblock on an incidental character, and realized that I had had the solution in front of me the whole time! 🤦‍♂️

Oh come on, this is just getting absurd.

Woke up to see a cat trying to flee out the door with my pajamas this morning, so that was something.

"I don't care if it is from the right shelf, it wasn't in the right place, it's not part of this collection! Just- put that book back where it came from, or SO HELP ME-" #ttrpg #dnd5e #modron #monodrone #firbolg #MonstersInc

@xyla Actually this is a sign of distress, airplanes aren't supposed to drink like this. They normally use a straw.

If you're on Bsky, please follow @ap.brid.gy if you haven't already, so I can see your interactions on here. Not that I'm getting more than a couple right now, but they're mostly invisible to me unless I go look.

Facts.

Last night on D&D: DM: "What you read on the page is not names as you would understand it, but strings of various vocalizations, buzzes, clicks, and other sounds you could make with your mouth." Eduardo (kobold) to the dragonborn bard: "Is this language what I've heard you bards call […]

My kobold got coated in worms at the end of a battle tonight. He flailed a bunch, then singed one of his friends with a radiant blast when trying to shake them off .

You are now legally a bird. (I always do this with Hat in Time, unfullscreen to make the tablet sync, and draw a bird face onto Hat Girl)

Is there a way to just give bridgy a big ol list of accounts, and find out which ones are bridged? I want to move all the people my disused bsky account follows, and follow them from here instead, if they are. Unfortunately, the only way I know is to have Bridgy invite each of them, up to ten a day.
