My favourite genre of "spooky things caught on film" videos are "ghost hunters get spooked by strange noises in what is clearly a squat, but keep investigating until some poor guy has to wail like a banshee at them while hiding in a cupboard".

They'll find half drunk bottles of cola & beer, the remnants of rollies on a table in a room with a mattress & bedding, & say things like "this is so weird, why is all this here?"

My brother in the paranormal, it's a dude's home! Leave!!

Today has been an absolute clusterfuck. One of my hens was grabbed by a fox & spent two hours in surgery. So that was expensive. She's home & feeling sorry for herself but doing okay (she's 9yo!). Then someone managed to clone the bankcard I haven't used for two weeks & expires at the end of tomorrow to spend £460 on Ticketmaster. Then the banking app was having connection issues & the chat bot was absolutely useless.

It's nearly 5am and I have to be back at the vet at 2:30pm but brain is fried

One advantage Bsky has over Masto is that I very rarely have to block ai enthusiasts there.

"But it helps with my disability."

If every walking stick in the world was designed & made by Nazis with the purpose of destroying liberal democracies & enriching the already super rich, & every step I used them for felled a tree & poisoned disadvantaged towns, I'd put up with hobbling.

There is no ethical consumption under capitalism, but God damn there are lines in the sand.
