❗I can't see many posts at the moment. I'm only seeing 'No Preview Available' for both my own posts and many of yours. My apologies if I miss or don't like your images. 🥺 Others seem to be having the same issue, so if it feels unusually quiet, it's not you, it's us!❗

FEDIVERRRRRSE! I mean, FREEEEDOOOOM!

If Pixelfed is working for you, you should see William Wallace for #StatueSaturday 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

My dumbass was about to share a screenshot to tell you I'm having this issue too. But then I remembered you wouldn't be able to see it either. 😂✨

@NotAHopeInHades I messaged @meoralis this time because last time I messaged you it really was just me and I was like... This chick is going to think I'm a lunatic if I keep asking this. 😅 I mean, I totally am a lunatic but my eyes mostly work.

At least commenting still works! 🍿 @NotAHopeInHades

So, how we all doing? (Imagine we're all sitting around a 🔥) 😂✨

~meoralis~14h ago

@NotAHopeInHades @Jess.Stetson That's the spirit! 😂 I wanted to show you the new chickens. They're really cute, all gangly and leggy. 🐥🤭 And we finished a new flower bed in the front garden today (in the rain at 7 °C, yay), so I hope I'll have more flower models to share soon. 🤗 How are you doing? Anything interesting happening your end, aside from the posting woes? 😀 (Remember I'm German, so I take any "how are you?" questions very literally! 😋)

I would happily give you my direct number for chicken updates! 😂 As for me... Meh. Went out to try to get a photo for today and came back with what's technically known as bupkis. So when this pixelfed shit sorts itself out I'll be posting a cat pic.

~meoralis~13h ago

@NotAHopeInHades @Jess.Stetson TIL a new word! 😂 Never heard of bupkis before! Oh well, it's not the first time and it won't be the last. Hopefully, it'll sort itself out overnight! I'm calling it a night anyway – I'll have to get up super early for the chicks' wake-up service. We put them in the henhouse for the night with the old hen, but I'll need to get them out before they wake up properly. Otherwise, they'll get a whole set of bitch slaps from Henna for hogging her bed. 🫩

Nighty night!

@meoralis @jess.stetson Oh YAAAAY! I hope everything goes well with the chickens and that they get along! ♥️ Lovely! What kind of flowers did you plant? I'm doing fine thanks! Spent most of my day at the park, taking photos. Lots of flowers, a pigeon and a turtle!! (It's a pretty bad turtle pic so let's see what we can do with it!) Oh and one of a bee! I was so excited about it I've already sent it to Jess 😂.
We love cat pictures around here! Actually, forgot to tell you there was a cat on a leash at the park and they were adorable!! 😭✨

@NotAHopeInHades @Jess.Stetson Haha, thanks, I hope so too! They are very lively. 🫣
I haven't planted anything yet, we've only put in the edging stones. And since our house was built on an ancient Indian burial ground (okay, maybe it was an industrial chicken farm ... wait a minute, that explains SO MUCH!), we had to use proper tools like a rotary hammer and abrasive saw to install them, which took ages. 😮‍💨 The flower bed faces north, so I'll probably go for some ferns (yay!!) and other shade-loving shrubs and bushes. I've got next week off, so I'll probably spent a few hours at a garden centre AND BUY ALL THE PLANTS! 😏 Sigh, spring must be in full swing in Bologna now! We almost had a flurry of snow today, I don't think turtles would cope here (yet). 😅

The fact that there are now chickens on the land that was once an industrial chicken farm is actually hilarious 😂 Their ancestors are speaking to them from below and telling them to act up! You need a Henxorcist! 😂 Some ferns and shrubs would be lovely though! Let us know what you get! (Unfortunately no garden space here, so I am vicariously living through you!) . You know what, it's pretty odd here. It is and it isn't. Some plants seem to have arrived early and are already finished blooming, while others are just getting started. Weird times 🤷🏻‍♀️. The turtles live in the pond in the park and I think they have a heating source, so they're grand! ✨

The turtles live in the park! 😭 I want constant turtle updates now, too!

Update: still swimming in the pond. More at 11. 😂✨

OH FFS! Those hens are getting alllll the vibes from that farm! I don't blame them for being angry! 😂

Oooh Cat on a leash! I tried that with Mac once and he just lay flat and went dead weight. Then he hid from me for two days. 😂

"Mother has restrained meeeee!" 😂✨
