Targeted marketing gets everywhere these days. I was just Googling how to improve my barre chord technique, and then this ad popped up in my Lemmy feed...

I seen some thangs.
I'm still liking Threads, but it hasn't replaced Mastodon for me; the two platforms have palpably different vibes and constituencies (or at least my corners of them do). I thus find myself living a ridiculous double life across two different micro-blogging services, with neither one getting the attention it probably deserves.
Maybe the problem will go away if/when Threads federates, but there doesn't currently seem to be a date on that, nor even a date for a date.
I tried to keep half an eye on the Apple event, but the way every little tweak and update comes swaddled in superlatives makes it a tiresome effort to try to work out what changes (if any) are actually interesting.
It transpires that during the holidays the council has removed all the car parking spaces outside Scarlett's school. Needless to say there has been no concomitant upgrade to public transport.
There's a script I've been meaning to write for at least five years. It would probably take a full working day to put together, and would save me about 30 minutes a month. Hmm.
(Obviously I mean a computer script, not an Edinburgh script. A stage show ain't gonna save nobody nothing.)
I'm kinda drifting away from Mastodon a bit, just because there seems to be more interesting, fun content to read on Threads. But I don't feel very inspired to post much myself on either site, as I simply don't feel I have a community of my own to address. That's the main thing I miss from the old Twitter.

This looks amazing, and I am definitely nowhere near clever enough to take advantage of it.
