Do you think social media has become too much of a popularity contest? Want it to actually be *social* again? Just miss Cohost or hate the concept of numbers? I wrote a user style to abolish stats from Bluesky. Add Stylus to your browser of choice and install gist.github.com/querkmachine...

What I’ve learned from Puzzmo adding Freecell is zhat I have no idea how to play Freecell

My pal Danielle Koenig shared that her father Walter Koenig passed away last night at age 90. A performer whose kindness and warmth shone through the screen. He will be well remembered.

"Starting October 30, business accounts will consent to Meta scraping their websites if they continue using Facebook, Instagram, or WhatsApp." How many artists have a business page? I've been telling people to stay away from Meta for years now. If you use FB, IG or WA, read the article.

The Venn diagram of political beliefs and religious/spiritual beliefs has so much overlap it seems wild that one of them is considered protected speech and the other isn't.

Between Sweden’s ‘country for introverts’ and Oslo’s ‘enjoy your time here or we’ll murder you’ campaigns, you really gotta wonder what’s been going on in the Nordic tourism industry.

My domain registrar still hasn't responded to my support requests. Their renewal system isn't working properly, so the beeps.gay domain is imminently going to expire and there's bugger all I can do about it.

If the things hosted on that domain go down (including my Mastodon instance) in the next 24-48 hours, that's why. :ying_annoyed:

CW: ph (-?) The MRI I got to investigate why I have hearing loss found nothing relating to that, but did find potential evidence of a new and exciting condition. How fun.

"JK Rowling is already a billionaire and everyone already knows about Harry Potter, what's the point of boycotting?" Nobody thinks boycotting will bankrupt her. We know she's gonna die rich. We're just asking you to show a shred of solidarity with trans folk. Absolute low bar bare minimum shit.

I have invented zhe most batshit (by my standards) design for a webbed site let’s see if I can actually finish it to a standard I’m happy wizh

Today is an ordering breakfast on Deliveroo kind of day, apparently. :ying_flop_sleep:

My favourite 3 panels of Judge Dredd from the Judge Death Lives story - Wagner and Bolland at their best. The panels, the text and the speach lines "GAZE INTO THE FACE OF FEAR!" and "GAZE INTO THE FIST OF DREDD!" have stayed with me since I first saw them in 1981 #DayofDredd

CW: GBBO God I love Danni's queer, autistic, tech-and-anime dork vibes. Now if only they were doing better at baking things. 😅

CW: UK politics I’ve been a campaigner for electoral reform away from FPTP since I was literally 15 years old. It’s such a blatantly unfair system of running elections that has the side effect of promoting short-term thinking, tribalistic politics, and voter apathy.

CW: UK politics I honestly think a significant number of the political issues that exist today in the UK and US can be traced back to both countries operating FPTP elections.
