Queer, trans. RESIST TYRANNY. Nazis and TERFS fuck off. 18+ Heller for life. Bass-baritone. Cats and chocolate. I don't auto-moot -- it's not personal. He/him.
Happy Thanksgiving to all my American peeps! May you be sated but not inflated.

NO BLACK FRIDAY (unless you shop hyper local)!

Lovely timeline cleanse thread. ORANGE CAT ALERT!
THREAD.

3 years ago, with no warning, a brilliant orange farm cat wandered over from the draughty barn where he had been living, in rural Cornwall, and decided he wanted to live with us instead.

We decided to call him Jim.

This is the first photo I took of him, on that night: December 1st, 2022.

Fuck AI. Seriously.
NEW: AI “recipe slop” is overrunning search and social. Food creators say Google’s AI Overviews and glossy fake food pics are drowning out real, tested recipes — collapsing traffic and setting home cooks up for disaster, especially this Thanksgiving.

Israeli group B’Tselem notes that, since a supposed “ceasefire” in Gaza, Israel has:

* killed 345 Palestinians,

* denied food to 70% of the population who need it,

* demolished a further 1,500 buildings.

All of this is in blatant violation of the agreement.

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who’s coming to save you?

Oh, I'll get saved all right, but it will be a MESS. 😂

DO NOT WANT.

Just in general, okay? Nothing awful happened. No specific trigger.

Hmm, that's not strictly true: while the Do Not Wanted-ness of my morning is universal, *right this particular instant* it refers to getting out there & exercising.

Okay, you know what? Just forget I said anything.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers at the University of Exeter have found that getting vaccinated against shingles- a painful and debilitating condition that can flare up years after infection from varicella zoster virus- not only LOWERS the risk of infection, but can also PROTECT against Alzheimer’s disease!

I did pretty well on my to-do list yesterday. Missed a couple things, but did add picking up candy canes for a WQRC table on Sat.

I seamed one sleeve of the baby jacket while we played a game, then the other afterwards. Got all the way to the marker & realized I'd seamed the WRONG SIDES together. 😱

I adore miniminuteman and his efforts as a science/history communicator, fighting the tide of bullshit out there. But he left one important note out of his vid on the "mystery" out the Roanoke colony.

2. go grocery shopping
3. exercise
4. cancel Musescore Pro
5. schedule routine bloodwork
6. work on side project or baby sweater or Yule card

Ugh.
