Mostly crochet and other fibre arts, maybe some digital art too (if you’re very unlucky). NB, ND, and always tired.

I'm supposed to do the 2h trip on public transport to see my parents again today, but I don't know if I really can be bothered. I saw them yesterday, and it's going to be raining a lot here today.
Morning everyone! I've done a couple of pages of #DigitalArt exercises, and now I'm working on the #crochet bag pattern I'm figuring out for when I eventually start some kind of crochet channel.
Hope you're all doing well?

This would also be a good time to remind people that a lot of the people who want to avoid #politics are politically active already, and are here to take a break. I've been directly involved in politics, on and off, for over a decade now. I even do phone banking, write letters, and I used to canvas and #protest before I became disabled.
I think there's this perception that the people who avoid politics are the people who need to be reached, and people who don't know how to turn off the politics jam things into the apolitical timeline to try and "reach" us... But most of us don't really need to be reached.
This platform is literally built by people who know enough to know why having a platform that isn't controlled by a single person or company is important.
If you want to talk about politics, put in hashtags we can block and CW the crazy stuff.

Australian GeographicDid you know that Australia’s iconic koalas are considered endangered in Queensland, NSW and the ACT? 🐨
Thankfully, more than 3000sq.km of forests on NSW’s Mid North Coast have been earmarked for the Great Koala National Park to protect this special species. But there’s still work to be done before this proposed reserve becomes the haven koalas desperately need.

The audacity of them to remove my only reliable safe food, the bastards
No actually, I still have not yet recovered from the utter betrayal of Kraft’s new “deluxe” Mac and cheese recipe
Jeff MartinYup, it's true. Firefox 128 includes new adtech features that are turned on by default and announced with very little fanfare, so most people might not even know they're there. 
Well, this is me telling you they're there. You might want to go ahead and take a minute to opt out.
Here's the little helpful explainer from Mozilla about how it all works:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/privacy-preserving-attribution
My read seems to be: Mozilla says website surveillance is generally bad and should be defended against. Cool. No notes. Firefox actually has a lot of nice anti-tracking and privacy features there and that's the main reason why I like Firefox.
But, and I swear I'm not even joking a little bit here, Mozilla goes on to say that advertisers might be happier if Firefox itself just tracked you directly and sent activity reports back to them.
Doesn't that sound great?
Now, to Mozilla's credit, they claim to anonymize the activity reports. And you can still meaningfully opt out of the whole system.
But WTF, mate?! I use Firefox *because* it fights against adtech. Or at least it used to. Now, Mozilla just lets adtech right in the front door and hopes you won't notice? 
Well, we noticed. Mozilla is damage and we need to route around it.
UPDATE: The about:config setting for this is `dom.private-attribution.submission.enabled`. It's a bool. Set it to false to turn it off.
