I gave it one day off this suspicious drug to see if things improved, but nah. I gotta go to the ER tomorrow in the states and get a CT of my abdomen. An MD friend says some diverticulitis can go sideways in creative ways, and it’s not worth the risk, since it’s the prime suspect. He says I gotta go. But I’ll wait until afternoon when I know it will be hurting when I arrive so I can make a proper entrance.
I don’t mean to be that guy here, but we’re going to have to face the fact that America is almost ungovernable. When it actually gets there, then what?

And the fediverse, by any name, is the first real opportunity to yank it back from the fuckers.

And as they prove every day, of late:
⏵Batshit stupid is all too real.
She is so tiresome. Whatever moves her name from point A to point B. That’s all she’s ever been about. And the media is always thrilled to help her get it done.

JFC. I am really learning to hate this fucking country.

I sure miss Tweetdeck's notification filters that let me tune-out things I've seen many times before. Mastodon users don't seem to care enough to notice or comment about it. I find it a productivity killer. Why should I have to see my own posts again just to learn of activity on them. Xitter and Bluesky handle this far better.
Good morning . If there's going to be a big commercial, mass-social media dog, I'd rather have a federated Bluesky take that lead, at least until activity Pub has a bump in Mastodon alternatives and better onboarding for them.

Xitter feeds me this xit all day long. It should be illegal to do this.
nostr:npub1x7cjvwsrppt55pdrnt04g4tmwslmte480ypcax47af5gdfw68x8s2346cu I see a vague mention about migration without any detail (is
moving posts included yet?), and lots of needed structural things, but not much about user features (such as quoted posts) that many have been waiting for. I’m curious about the onboarding stuff.

I guess you know you're getting old when tits and ass spam really irritates you.
Despite my great experiences with Upper Peninsula Michigan Healthcare, I still can't get over how few Black faces I've seen here. And by few, I mean none. zip nada. Not in the airports, nor the supermarkets, or even Burger Kings where I didn't think the flame broilers could even operate without black black employees. It's easy to see why extremists can sucker these people so easily. They don't understand diversity because they've never experienced any.

I'm working on a browser plugin that diverts anything clearly performative to your performative timeline where a bot will auto-LOL stuff you never read. You're welcome.

Wouldn’t it be cool if we had a few dozen ProPublicas competing with each other on important stories the way big daily newspapers once did? It would be a new golden age for journalism. Which could really use one.
