Dear reader, I just spent the last 20 minutes on a holy crusade to find out where the hell my stapler went (my thieving daughter squirreled it away to her room) and the irony is not lost on me that THIS is the stapler in question. #LifeImitatesArt #BurnDownTheBuilding

I'm about to make saying "build a community not an audience" a blockable offense. Some people need an audience to keep a roof over their head and food on the table, and it's the only option for many marginalized people who aren't able to be gainfully employed in society due to bigotry or lack of support. What do you want them to do, just starve because a fascist burned down their only means of generating income?

And why the hell are you letting brands own the word "audience" anyway, and pretending it's some dirty thing now? The arts have used that word respectfully for centuries, long before brands came around

I'm sorry I keep posting about this but as a working slash often starving artist the mastodon interaction purity police is really starting to get to me

I am pleased to report that now I have a working battery in my old MacBook Air, it is merely half dead as opposed to the three quarters dead it was.
The thing that annoys me the most about webp is that so many websites serve up images in the format, but so few accept the format when you go to upload/submit an image.

Time travel is actually quite easy to invent. Ridiculously easy. Far more people have the capacity to stumble over the knack of time travel than to comprehend the effect of the earth’s 30km/s orbital velocity in combination with the sun’s 250-odd kps galactic orbital motion. Interstellar space is LITTERED with inventors who discovered, briefly, that a flux capacitor recharges in just *slightly* more time than the length of time a human can hold their breath in vacuum.

elon: doctor, i'm depressed because nobody likes me...

doctor: go see elon musk, very unfunny clown. colonialist, racist, fuckface billionaire puddle of shit and a fucking worthless waste of life, everybody hates the cunt and wishes he would fuck off and die, that might cheer you up.

elon: but doctor...

Let this be how they get him. Lord, I ask so little
"Taber how come you keep posting about evil billionaires on their own website. Isn't that contradictory or something"

Remember: Twitter is Elon's company, he has the free speech and free association right to run it pretty much however he wants and to ban people for petty narcissistic reasons.

And we have the right to laugh and point at his ridiculousness and at the free-speech pretenses of his gullible fans.
