Last Notes npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Meta really went all-in on the "new reality" of mainstream fascism. They explicitly permit harassment of queer folk, and explicitly reject facts. There's no way to cleverly interpret that. It's just 100% awful. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog I've had fire ants go after me because I sat too close to their nest. Apparently these are worse? Do not want. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog These ants are really not the peaceful fungus farming sort. HUGE mandibles, for biting things extra hard. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Trying to wrap my head around the idea of "justice" which lets mayors shut people out of their home after it gets bombed, and lets the landlord cancel the rent contract when that happens. Apparently that's how you solve someone getting bombed in the Netherlands. Just make the victim go away, then no more bombs. Except it has become more common over the past few years, from 212 in 2021 to 1234 last year.

"Yes, but surely" No! Nothing surely. No but. Just straight up bought for money, no further criteria. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog I despise the people "arranging marriages" like that as much as any slave trader. I can't see how it's any different. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog The people selling the plastic thought it was brilliant. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog What a powerful me- [stares at tree being climbed be a school of fish] Uh. Yeah. Powerful metaphor. [the fish are using reverse-diving suits, with mecha limbs] You can't expect fish to meet that kind of- [panning to the left, we see jellyfish using similar suits which are holding an on-land math seminar, demonstrating advanced proofs on a blackboard] What the hell is in this tea? :nkotea: npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog The Hague went into the weekend with a bang. Part of an apartment row collapsed, and windows across the street were broken by the shockwave. No evidence in yet, but my guess is this was someone's fireworks stash. There have been numerous finds of poorly stored fireworks in homes, created by persons who know fuck all about explosive safety.and just wanted a side hustle selling fireworks. Not that it matters much for the people who's home exploded this morning. https://nos.nl/artikel/2547368-portiekflat-in-den-haag-deels-ingestort-na-explosie npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Turkey's also looking to hand off the Syrians who fled there, into whatever part of Syria is "liberated" by their proxies. A lot of european countries want the same, so they're not really against Turkey "helping" one of the factions win. No matter which one. There were even some pols making noises about sending refugees back to areas controlled by Assad. It's truly heartless. Purely about anti-arab xenophobia. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Yes, just keep your data on corporate where you can enable "do not share" so only law enforcement can get at your data. While you're actually terrified of law enforcement more than anything else. The absolute incompetence of advice like that. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog At least he's a fringe party hack. No chance of this horrible stuff getting anywhere near enacted. But that he even feels okay with saying it aloud is not good. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Die mad, prescriptivists! npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog I can see how that must have been confusing. I meant the floor with the main entrance. The one with the doormat reading "Come back with a war ant!" with tips of mandibles in the background. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Protesting in response to a protest ban is exactly the right response and I hope they will continue to do it. Because fuck that wannabe-dictator bullshit. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Was Spain ever hit this much in a single year with this? It seems a lot to happen within a month. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Already saw how, and this will surprise everyone *so* much, it was white people again. Blaming others for not saving them hard enough sure is an interesting take. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog ✋ Are the board games good, though? npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog See, this is five years old, but it holds up just fine today. And it's certainly still a relevant message. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog You might like @npub1sh5…uyrq who talks about a particular aspect of gardening. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog I love how I can just say FUCK here and I don't get algorithmed to death. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Christian monks and buddhist monks would at times engage in this. Performative humility is a heresy, but only if you get caught. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Abiding in reality has become extremist and radical. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Every time I can choose, it feels better to choose the loving option. It doesn't always work out. But it feels so much better than giving up. And I've seen people who chose selfishness and hate reach the end of their life, and there was no joy there, and hadn't been for decades. After they drove everyone away, they only had one person left to hate. It's not the future I want for myself. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Wow. "They might kill people in Canada, but let's not get too upset." What the fuck is with these modern conservatives? Used to be they'd take any bait to rail against foreign countries. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog If this sticks, hoping for a similar ruling in Europe. After those two jurisdictions junk their model, nobody else will respect it anymore. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Always willing to shop for a researcher who says what they want to hear. "Science". npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog People often have no idea how drastically different a cultivar can be. Events like this are great eye-openers. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog High quality mosstodon content. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog So many people don't know how to make use of the green ones. They're by far the least popular kind in all the grocers near me. They're just right for a lot of things, though. Like, there's things I don't want to make without them. And I'm thinking about how all of them would be a lot better with these instead of store bought ones. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog The most important part is that your family knows you're safe. A lot of people aren't right now, so even just one person less to be worried about will be welcome. And you're doing a lot, making their voice heard where it matters. Don't know if any of that logic makes the feelings easier to deal with, though. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog To imperialists, a demand to stop occupying foreign territory is the most unreasonable demand. It's their main goal, after all. Anyone who pretends Israel has any right to occupy anything outside their borders is simply part of the imperialist project. And that includes those who ignore that Israel is occupying parts of two countries. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog I'm too addicted to C to ever break the habit. It's recommended that you keep small children and impressionable adults far away from C, lest they learn it and become like me. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog It's very close to natural human behaviour, too. Before office jobs and construction work, most people would be involved in making food from seed to harvest. Little wonder that it feels good to do. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog So, currently there are large floods in Europe, Africa, Asia and North America. South America and Australia have had them, too, this year. #ClimateCrisis is now. Not "unless we" or "in the near future" or "we can still avoid". It's happening right now. And this isn't the "new normal". It's still actively worsening. We haven't arrived anywhere. It's a wild ride, and we're riding it full speed ahead. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Making the job nicer for the workers is never an option, is it? npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog It's still an unmitigated affront against all that's good and holy. No matter how you try to justify it, it is wholly reprehensible. Repent, ye sinner! npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog I would use mayo and cheese for many things, but ramen isn't one of them. Same for any bowl-with-broth-and-noodles dish. A horrified "Why would you do that?" is my gut reaction. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Some of the things in the bible seem socialist. Feed people only because they're hungry. Give them drink only because they're thirsty. Give people clothes only because they have none. Give people shelter only because they have none. Those are very literal things the Jesus in the bible says people should all do, when able. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog 8/10 from the last decade is a little bit much. 9/10 if we stretch it to 11 years. Basically, the anomaly is having a record from 1949 in this list. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Amazing how they gave Madison a functioning crystal trombone. Like, 100% crystal, how is that even possible? npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog In a true free market of labour, the worker should have the option of not selling to anyone. That would quickly shut down so much abuse. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog The hard truth is that ingredients limit the maximum result you can get. You were probably at least okay at it to begin with, just didn't have the right things to make that skill shine. Glad you're back to baking things. Nothing quite like that smell of treats getting baked drifting out of the kitchen. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Well, it can be fixed with a simple part replacement. Not even the most expensive part, so obviously you're lucky. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog It's almost like I lived in mythical times, where I saw a certified architect draw a blueprint. Like with pens, on a big table with a large sheet of paper stuck to it. It's harder, slower, far less forgiving with errors, but it *worked* and people did that for centuries. I can't help but feel a sense of loss even though I fully understand why the switch to electronic versions happened. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Gives a real different timbre to "Peace was never an option." memes if it's with that anatid. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog You can't just make crimes illegal! That's anti-criminalist bigotry! npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Flu, e-coli, RSV, noro and tuberculosis (!) are definitely fond of taking cruises. All the enclosed spaces with lots of people in them are great for those. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog XR blocked a lock in IJmuiden, causing a cruise ship to be stuck. They're making the point that cruise ships are floating environmental disasters, which exist purely for entertainment. Over 2000 passengers left the ship, which is stuck at a dock in IJmuiden because of the delay, although XR only blocked the lock from 03:00 to 07:00 (talk about waking up on time for the climate!) They made headlines in NL, though. Great success. #ClimateAction #ClimateCrisis #ClimateChange npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog I'm very content with the army of frogs. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Don't be silly. The blood eagle isn't an expression of love. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Ìt's a fun, hectic game. Also, if you can understand Swedish a little, the spoken parts are at times hilarious. Basically 99% of the reason to learn Swedish. The other 1% is swearing at Ikea furniture. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog I was referencing the vidya masterpiece of yore, Magicka, in which the crew encounter someone who strangely switches to Romanian to deny his vampirity. And this leads to a shocking revelation, later! npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog [cuts a 1ft piece off a wooden broomstick and starts to sharpen one end] Du är nul vampir, säger du? npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog Hm, so if someone suddenly exclaims "Jerusalem" because they're surprised, we might be dealing with a 19th century vampire? Good to know. npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog I wonder why they resigned immediately after my move? Surely it's not THAT big of a ... oh, it is. Well, that's nice then. Now to *always* play that well. #shogi https://media.mstdn.social/media_attachments/files/112/685/185/219/747/360/original/2739b94a0dfe9690.png npub12wmaxgnz4hpdszccgp7aud58ggh2pa72lvezx45p3vhu7sye5wxs4apwfj JustAFrog If it isn't covered with sand, it clearly should be.
