I have my omad in the mid-morning. Decaf coffee helps with the caffeine ritual part too.

Somewhere, I’m sure. Lots of hacks that change the play for better or worse, it’s a masterpiece I don’t mind paying for, I think the developers did a job worthy of some compensation.

This is absolutely unreal, from the Robinhood Snacks newsletter:

Moderation snare: This week the EU warned Meta that failing to remove pro-Hamas content could violate the bloc’s new moderation rules, resulting in heavy fines. Users looking for war updates on social have had to navigate through loads of misinfo, old footage, and video-game clips.

Ad squeeze: Mark Zuckerberg’s vision for Threads was to be a positive space. By remaining mostly brand-safe with less real (and “fake”) news, Meta could pull more ad revenue away from flailing rival X.

Searching: Last month, Threads blocked searches for keywords like “Covid” and “vaccines” as cases rose in the US.

I still play Fallout 4. Absolutely my favorite modern game, C&C Tiberium Wars and Diablo II though…..don’t I wish modern games were even close.

A damselfly.

At the time it was torture, but in the presence of time I reminisce fondly on the intensity of those feelings. A fire that burns hot, usually burns for a shorter period of time comparatively in my experience, I prefer the steady heat of a love like slow burning hardwood over a deep bed of embers. Infatuation can settle into such of course, and it is always fun.

Having a suffocating childhood crush.

Dark are these times of constant tension and war. It’s important to focus on those close to us in our daily pursuits and share small successes. We all need a break from the show on the global stage. I caught a rather large wiener pig that has been sniper nursing a sow with a full litter today after a three day feeding time pursuit. It felt so good! #peace #homesteading

“Dear and Illustrious Friend, Permit me to inscribe your name at the head of this book, and above its dedication; for it is to you, before all, that I owe its publication. Reading over your magnificent defence, my work has acquired for myself, as it were, an unexpected authority. Accept, then, here, the homage of my gratitude, which, how great soever it is, will never attain the height of your eloquence and your devotion. Gustave Flaubert, Paris, 12 April 1857”

Beautiful.

Oh man. Hairy on the tongue. Hmmm. 😏

For sure. No question. Does it have to be a long kiss? Lol.

They could be potent allies in the coming famine? Lol. Your courses might mean nothing, but pork and eggs now….

You know, I often think that resource scarcity is at the root of most behavioral problems societies experience. There should be enough for everyone, but avarice prevents plentiful living. For some, the few, there is never enough. It’s so difficult to draw that line though, I live in plenty, but feel chased by the wolves of scarcity every day of my life thanks to my childhood. It’s complex for so many people. Automation is coming for most jobs, the people will need resources to live, meted out without judgement. I’m hopeful, but pessimistic.

Basic income is difficult to accept and touchy to implement, but necessary in the coming times.

Anything with a shoulder presents a problem though, too little headspace or product leakage around the increased diameter.

Fathers who are loving and passionate for justice don’t allow endless unproductive suffering to persist in the reality of their children. Omnipotent fathers would certainly not tolerate the persistent presence of a injurious molester in their child’s room, yet here we all are, living amongst self serving animals with the supposed presence of a persecuting fallen angel our “father” does nothing about. Religion mitigates the human fear of death and the loss of loved ones, ritual allows us to imagine we have influence over chance, no matter the dogma, it’s contrived fiction. I would never stand in the way of belief bring peace, or intentionally try to undermine anyone’s faith,but in discussion of what is real and not real, these things are legitimate concerns.

Yep, I can’t avoid seeing the female anatomy here, leg bones, vaginal canal, vulva, etc.

The best submerged solution I have found are food grade glass marbles. I do a lot of lactobacillus fermentation and I prefer glass to plastic or metal because ultimately these things influence flavor over time in acid.

I have the loose skin weirdness AND the facial wrinkles! Lol. 😞

I had several login attempts. Thank goodness for two factor authentication!
