I’m quicker to block here, but if there’s a mute option (like mastodon has) I use that a lot more often.

Neat! I either followed accounts from elsewhere, or they randomly found me and I found them back, or or I started using tags and people comment on my things and we follow each other sometimes.

The packs are probably much easier!

The eyeballs on the dog are making me giggle very hard! That is one hell of an expression!

Because they trust us to not step on them. They see that we try to avoid them, and so, of course we won’t hurt them!

Smart but not quite smart enough to realize accidents happen lol.

They do seem to know if someone is disabled though and tend to either run faster (to clear the person’s path faster) or give a wider birth from what I’ve seen. They have to be near the human for awhile to realize though, that’s a learning curve for them.

Sounds like a nightmare for insurance purposes, at least here in the states.

Given they tried to claim my identical twin was not my father’s child but I was. (Twin cost a lot lot more. I was nicu for a week, they were nicu for a month)

The insurance company did not win that argument.

You claim one twin you claim both your dinguses.

Bonk bonk they go into the windows! Fucking asshole bugs those are!

Oh man, I loved wearing turtle necks and ankle skirts and still being a whore because I had the audacity to have DD by high school! I never even touched a boy in even the vaguest ways in high school!!!

Salt water taffy is pretty nice! I prefer fudge though.

“Existing!” and then usually they pause and we talk about something else.

I liked just building houses! It was so much fun to make intricate places for people with no worries about cost.

My dentist texted me to say my appointment tomorrow is canceled and I need to call to reschedule.

Took me calling 9 times to get a human. Because if it goes to hold music, it then just shunts you to their ‘ai’ that can “reschedule, make appointments, cancel appointments” but it FUCKING CAN’T

What it does instead is fuck up several times in a row before giving up and sending a note to the desk.

Which doesn’t get seen until like two days later.

So you hang up the second you hear the ‘ai’ assistant talk and call back until someone picks up during the ringing phase.

I’m sure this isn’t making the front desks job miserable, not at all! Blegh.

It’s Passover and turns out it’s hard to get ice cream that’s kosher for passover because most brands use corn syrup and that’s not good for passover. I’m not going into why it’s…silly to me.

But I have an ice cream machine, and I love my mother, so I made her (and by extension her husband and step son) some vanilla ice cream, sans any corn syrup (or corn starch, a litter of home recipes use that) and then I delivered it to her.

I was going to bake an Easter (oh I see auto correct, you’ll caps Easter auto but not Passover) bunny cake, but my bunny cake pan must be in deep storage. Husband is ostensibly catholic so bunny cake.

The cat is also being an absolute menace. She needs attention. But not any old attention. She needs attention of the person who was napping. Me. Can’t go yell at the awake guy, noooo. Wake up human lady! Attention time!!!

I love her

While my roundness says snack, ultimately my tiredness wins out. Nap time please!

And without a small cat yelling in my face today. She’s been a menace!

No TV in the bedroom! That’s for rich people, like people who have ice makers in the fridge and the whiring blades in the sink!

Nasty little children mocking people different than them. Glad I’m out of school and when people are weird they only talk behind my back!

…well it’s not better but it’s different I guess.

Eeeey, we have that machine as well! Device to poke holes that doubled as the measuring cup for the water to put into the steam unit! Cool stuff!

We would sleep with the cat at night but at night she’s a running nightmare.

Napping during the day? She’s allowed in the bedroom then and is all snuggles and purrs. If I don’t nap, the bedroom is still open then and she’ll sleep in the bed sometimes!

My favorites are “Whooooose the stupidest cat in this house? You are! You are!” And “Whoooooo is a dingus? You are!”

It always ends with you are, lol

Both phones and modern medicine are pretty cool to me still!

I can talk to someone on the other side of the world? Basically instantly? Damn! That’s sweet!

Diseases that use to ravage the world are just. Gone. I don’t have to worry about getting smallpox and just dying. I get a single shot, once? (Maybe a few times for the nasty diseases) and then I just… go do whatever? Damn, that’s amazing!

It would be very hypocritical of me to care much about it. So I’d wish them luck and to know it won’t be easy.
