Is this an API-weirdness artifact or just an extremely ahead-of-it’s-time art piece? 🙃

A bird has shit on me.
She peeked over the edge of the bed. “Are you still there?” she whispered. The monsters under the bed did not reply. “There is an elf on my shelf.” Silence. “It watches me, and reports to Santa.” A hoarse growl came under the bed: “Turn the light off.” She smiled. “Thank you.”
: it’s disappointing seeing Twitter users delete their history. It’s just as good to opt-out of providing content for Elmo to monetize by marking your account private. Deletion means that others can no longer reference favorited/bookmarked materials.

have disabled Siri on my iPhone and Watch due to changes iOS 16. Apple won’t notice me, but there will come a tipping point when Apple will be unable to recover.
: Like every open-source project, mastodon is not built for actual people.
Exhibit 2658: there’s no way to merge/hide cross-posted material.
…seriously considering deleting the Music app from my iPhone. It consistently plays music that I have never heard before randomly when I have not opened or interacted with it at all in days.
I know why, and have filed two radars about it. Apple “fixed” one and ignored the other.
Programming is chaotic magic. There are no rules. You ask a game dev “Can the player summon a giant demon that bursts from the ground in an explosion of lava?” and they’ll say “sure, that’s easy” and then you’ll ask “can the player wear a scarf?” and they’ll go “oof”
I don’t want to host my own backend. And I definitely don’t want to host my own front end! Why does every service have to have an angle?! Why can’t someone make a simple status/microblog that does what it says, says what it does, and doesn’t try to be clever?
Unarmed queers in a gay bar in Colorado Springs were able to do what hundreds of armed men couldn’t do in Uvalde.
Last night, Toledo City Council approved $800,000 to purchase the medical debt of Toledoans, creating roughly $160-240 million in debt relief.
This is what it looks like when your government works for you. Toledo is leading the way!
If I can be media analysis corny for a second, I think one reason why the Green Ranger stuck with so many kids was that his arc showed that people sometimes hurt each other for reasons beyond their control but that they could make it right if they worked at it.
Hey @manton @help My blog’s custom domain is throwing TLS errors and/or nginx errors…
hey @manton search should accept an activity pub url, not just a user name
Our whole stupid discourse—liberal and conservative—summed up in one Fox News clip.
I desperately need a Tweetbot for ActivityPub.
No, not for mastodon. I don’t use mastodon, and mastodon does not implement ActivityPub Client, only (mostly) ActivityPub Server. I’ll write my own ActivityPub-supporting microblog before I install a mastodon instance.
