Chris is doing this thing where people respond "why don't *you* run for office?" so he's running for the California Assembly. He can't do it alone, though... he'll need help from us all. @kluweoc.bsky.social Out of state contributions are welcome. (Yes, it's through act blue but...)

I agree with this.
Quoted bit from the Wirecutter podcast: "Until I have a robot that can take my food and put it into the microwave, I don't understand the purpose of being able to be far away and having Alexa turn on my microwave."

"First of all, that's what kids are for. You tell the kids to put stuff in the microwave."

crap photo (i'm just not good at that sort of thing) of my kitty discovering cat tv on youtube. riveted to the screen! inadvertent furniture placement has ensured that she can also watch from her feeding station. #cat #kitty

I'm in central NY... no VPN... on an android tablet. I get this image after getting the original BBC sounds interface. I expect that the app gets location information and then puts up this screen.

oddly, I hate this now. I thought the $49.99 would be the regular price. #bbc #bbcworldservice

lots of cruft on this list I simply won't eat under any circumstance. official assessment was "Your food choices could not be tied to any one social class." not really enough questions to make a real determination. do it for yourself here: www.idrlabs.com/food-choice/...

this is taken from a for-rent ad for a local building that's being redevloped into apartments. apparently I'm allowed to keep a lynx or small mountain lion for a modest pet fee of $25/month along with a nonrefundable pet fee of $300
screen shot describing the pet fees... I'm allowed to have two fifty-five pound cats for a one time fee of $300 and a monthly fee of $25/cat

once the food happens there's the hunt for a post-morning nap spot. depending upon whom and the weather there are three spots for this: on my sleeping pillow, right in front of a window that gets great sun, or on the sofa where there's a hidden heating pad. This photo is from last night. 2/2

protip: if someone blocks you then you should make sure you block them back. if they decide to unblock you later (to harass you maybe) you'll be protected.
a initial. view of the blocker's profile showing that they have blocked me. seeing this I will block them by using the three dots menu at the top right of their profile that user's profile. showing that they have blocked me and I have blocked them.a notification that someone has blocked me.

lol. that's just not gonna work. a skeet from a former follower that presumed to tell me how to behave. I don't know this person, nor did I ask them to follow me, but here we are... I'm also not interested in "growing my page" I blocked this person.
@milaal.bsky.sociao says "If I follow you, I expect you to follow me back. I believe that's how we can both grow our pages and support each other. It's not cool if someone follows you and you don't reciprocate. Let's be respectful and supportive of each other."
