Feeling judged by my cat’s water fountain.

Meta is like we’re collecting all of your data from everywhere, we’re linking it to your account, and there’s nothing you can do about it anymore.

"The whole thing is a hoax," Trump says of the Epstein scandal while Tim Cook is sandwiched between Trump and Vance. Minutes earlier, Cook gave Trump a ridiculous glass and 24k gold statue in a very spectacular display of sucking up.

Amazon's AI is the worst. Amazon sent me the wrong item, I did a return, Amazon sent me the correct item. Today I got an email that I returned the wrong item (DUH), and was going to get charged. The AI has no flow for this, but tried to convince me I didn't need to speak to someone.

Here’s a quick and easy protocol for dealing with any MAGA idiots on Bluesky:

The Trump Mobile Plan website claims that it will include Telehealth with "Contactless Blood Pressure, Heart Rate Monitoring." It seems to imply that these features will work with a biometric face scan, which is very impressive technology for a cellular service.

It can look super nice as is, with minimal backgrounds. But I want my cat as my wallpaper, and Apple didn’t account for that apparently.

Juli Clover @juli.bsky.social · 10/06/2025

Control Center is a good example of the background dependency. I think the first screenshot here is mostly okay, though I’d still like less translucency. The second is chaos and distracting. This is beta 1, and there’s time for refining. I’m glad to see something fresh overall.

Speaking as someone who has covered Apple for what feels like forever, this court order is really something special. “For this court, there is no second bite at the Apple.” lol.

It’s been a rough day. Here’s my cat, he is sorry about your 401k.

Zuck is a slimy, gelatinous worm and I hope he makes a real mess on Trump's shoe when he gets stomped. There was an opportunity here to not be a total quivering bag of offal like Musk, but instead he decided to make his platforms worse for the entire world. www.theverge.com/2025/1/7/243...

It's frustrating that there's no opt-out for AI search results, so I'm just going to switch search engines.

First Google Search AI fail of the day: Looking up how long I have to contribute to my IRA for 2024. Google gave extra wrong info on contribution caps only applicable to Roth IRAs. I had to take the time to make sure I wasn't wrong about limits because of confusing added info I didn't need or want.

Some wins from the kiln, and one big loss. The shelf I made warped like crazy, not sure if firing upright would have helped. RIP. I do wish I’d put more lavender mist on the snake pitcher, but I still like it. Little house dish turned out better than expected, I struggle w/ clear over underglaze.

Not sure an op-ed from a healthcare CEO that earned $23.5 million in 2023 is going to hit quite like Andrew Witty hopes, especially when it has real thoughts and prayers vibes with nothing actionable. More like achieving best profit outcomes.

I’ve been taking a hand building pottery class for the last month to add to wheel skills, and I tried to get ChatGPT to make me a slab template for a teapot. That is apparently not something AI can even remotely do.

Juli Clover @juli.bsky.social · 16/11/2024

I have 17 pottery creations at various levels of completion, and my goal this weekend is to finish (most of) them. Will I make it? Probably not since it’s almost noon and I’m still mindlessly scrolling.

Had my first tufted titmouse visit! When I set up my bird buddy, a gang of house finches took over and wouldn’t let other birds visit. I took down all my bird feeders so the finches would move on, and I’ve had some success. Look at that little mohawk!

So the last thing I wrote about on Bluesky was my seven week old kitten. He’s 18 months old now! I guess it’s been a minute.

TGIF, this week was stressful. I need to find people on Bluesky who just talk cats and plants, recs welcome.

Please enjoy this seven week old kitten. He is super snuggly and has a purr louder than most adult cats.

The advertising pictures for this absolutely terrifying creature on Amazon are hilarious. I really don’t know why I get these bizarre suggestions on Amazon, I basically only order vitamins, cable management things, and filament. a.co/d/4MwgqSc

If you need a six foot plush goose, Amazon has you covered. This has almost 200 ratings, so there are over 100 people who possess a six foot plush goose. www.amazon.com/Stuffed-Animals-Pill…

Does anyone play Peridot and want to be Peridot friends? This game is cute, but it feels like Niantic isn’t promoting it at all.

One of my favorite hobbies is buying Lego sets and then procrastinating on putting them together. It’s gotten really out of hand.

Hi, longtime Twitter user, short time Mastodon user, and new Bluesky user. Please enjoy this picture of Toby the cat, otherwise known as Tobo Chico or Toblerone. And feel free to message me if you want to discuss plants, cats, or obsessively printing drawer organizers with your new 3D printer.
