I suck at starting conversations so, DMs open here to oomfs discord: mia_t_witch DM for signal (and Bluesky was supposed to be my attempt to put myself out there more)

they should make makeup tutorials that don’t presume I have years of experience doing makeup, or someone to teach me irl, because I am just a girl with a makeup brush set and a few items and zero clue what to do

While the second hate campaign aimed at a trans creator in the last six months once again thrives over on Twitter, I’d hope the folks calling themselves allies who decided to go back over there because Bluesky is no different would consider not being there.

Imagine feeling like your country's newsmedia could at any time turn its back and begin this level of hate campaign against you, to the point that they harass you and everyone you love to the literal ends of the earth, mining you for content until your death and even after. How would you live life?

Another one here where the British press just smashed fuck out of a member of the public’s life for no good reason, just because they wanted to and nobody will stop them doing at. And they’re still going, even now.

Okay so can we use this to move people over to @mu.social and @eurosky.social or @blackskyweb.xyz or @transrights.northsky.social Like advertise your web and mobile apps under this post. Plug that you support this & let's use this momentum to start migrating people to other clients/PDS/appviews.

Consider why you might not want a company that is subject to the laws of the countries in which it operates to be able to directly query the pronouns of its userbase. And you can always use a profile link pronoun.is

pronoun.isPronoun IslandPronoun.is is a website for personal pronoun usage examples.

an outdated system in a salmon farm using PHP was found to have been breached, allowing the attackers to perform remote cod execution

@mia.omg.lol

I don’t think I run anything vulnerable but better safe than sorry - I’m losing track of CVEs. This also affects my other server that the “Bluesky without Bluesky” experiment runs on but nobody is using that….

Parakeet@parakeet.at

in light of *gestures broadly*, I’m going to pull the plug on the machines running the Parakeet AppServer and Relay services. I don’t think anyone is currently using these but they’re going to be out until tomorrow evening UK time

*narrator voice* she did not have furniture (bed is going back - the picture showed part of it being reversible. it is not)

Mia [is away for a bit]@mia.omg.lol

why is decorating so hard? i have paint and furniture and now i have to find carpet and ughhhhh this is difficult.

today has not been fun and not even in the jovial “what’s going on in the internet” way, I mean several large things have gone wrong and it is all too much for me at the moment and I just cannot.

Mia [is away for a bit]
@mia.omg.lol

well I’ll admit that the whole ongoing CA situation has been a very fun one to watch unfold from the periphery of the internet today (I have been mostly offline but sometimes logging in and it keeps getting worse!)

cheating a bit because I knew this photo was there but boat, being moved! (Taken on a Fuji X-M5 in Greece by yours truly)

nate@zzstoatzz.io

Go to your camera roll and search "boat" and then post a pic of a boat you like

mia-heads will be pleased to know that the paint looks wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy better in the light and on the wall and I am no longer crashing out about it

Mia [is away for a bit]@mia.omg.lol

they should invent a mia that can explain the design visions she has in her head because if they did, I would not have been sat on the bed nearly in tears for 20 minutes over concern for the paint colours (which I cannot take back)

one of these days I’m going to work out how to get deadlock because it _seems_ (from what I gather) like it’d scratch the 2018 casual overwatch shaped itch I have? idk?

I don’t have a thing that I’ve seen that matches the colours I want, only that one is too blue and not lilac enough, and the other needs to be more pale/lighter, but it’s all moot because I can’t even take them back anyways.

my favourite genre of bugs are the ones that happen in test but not in prod - I am glad that they do not blow prod up constantly but otoh I have no incentive to rewrite this dodgy async recursive function lol

@mia.omg.lol

like this is a belief I’ve held since 2022 (when I too was still on twitter) there is no reason to be there, bc there is nothing over there (or nothing worth tolerating it for). under no circumstances do you gotta promote your thing on twitter.
