gizmo @gizmotron.bsky.social · 30/09/2026It really pisses me of in this Internet age whenever there is a serious incident in the news, everyone rushes to make "witty" comments or "hilarious" posts to milk tiny amounts of karma in the moment rather than appreciate the seriousness of the situation and empathise with the people involved. 110

gizmo @gizmotron.bsky.social · 24/09/2026I once dated a girl who thought the following were distinct taxonomic classes of animals: Mammals. Birds. Fish. Ducks.
