Apparently you can make me watch and share a 12 minute product advert if you hire Matt Berry and Jemaine Clement for it and let them loose.

This is fun (also testing my test self-managed instance visiblity)

Today is the tenth anniversary of the death of Grace Lee Boggs, one of the great guides of my life. In her spirit, let us always keep asking ourselves, "What time is it on the clock of the world?"

If you're in Detroit, consider going to this.

Dear @Gargron I have always loved how mirrors and lens create overlapping and different worlds. The man reflected in the mirror is not the One shooting and the blured couple in the background is also in a separate bubble. A bit like the fediverse, don't you think? Have a good week. With gratitude. Desideria.

I agree with the general idea, but the article contains some inaccuracies. FOSS means free as in libre, but it doesn't necessarily mean free as in beer.

Take RCU (davisr.me/projects/rcu/) for example. It's free thanks to its AGPL license, but you need to pay to get it. And when you pay, you get one year of updates. Then, you need to pay again if you want more recent versions.

Seeing the world through the eyes of #shrimp 🍤 #bees 🐝 #apes 🦧🦍 #dogs 🐶🐕 is a deep-dive into wonder. It generates a humble understanding of diverse ways of seeing the world #communication #behaviour #vision #animals #Boycott4Wildlife @palmoildetect.bsky.social palmoildetectives.com/2021/03/…


Making ranked lists can certainly be a convenient way to communicate and organize things, but it seems ridiculous to rank the significance of Nobel Prizes. As if the toxicity of prize culture, and all of the amazing discoveries and scientists that were overlooked over the years, isn't bad enough

@Gargron @Mastodon Oh no! I just broke my mug 😫😭 Is there any chance to replace it or are you planning on running another sale of the mug?! I am so sad right now.
in reply to Eugen Rochko

Yeeessss!!! This saved my day. I was in such a bad mood this morning 😅 As feedback: I hope the quality of the cup is the same as before – whoever made them originally did a *really* good glaze on top of the print as protection! Good choice of the manufacturer on your end 👏

Nooooo!

Smooth water and I bet that there are loads of good skipping stones along the lake edge!

And I am here not there!

In Prague today, I went to find the spot where this picture was taken: Soviet tanks in the city center in 1968, crushing the Prague Spring - an attempt by the people to gain more freedom and independence. Soviet Russia wasn't having any of it, here in the heart of Europe.

Look what this place looks like today. Flooded with tourists. I found that the picture was taken from a spot right in front of the medieval famous astronomical clock.

What's happening in Ukraine is more of the same.




For #Caturday: This is the cat who, for three years, would dash out of my office the moment I entered. Then about seven months ago, for unknown reasons, that all changed.

You can see how (not) stressed out Tennessee was last night, sharing the office with me.
