Writer, programmer, sometime-philosopher, parent and lover. Cyclist, hiker, canoer, camper, yoga disciple and Tai Chi enthusiast. Compulsive fixer/builder/maker; my collection of repair tools is prodigious. I almost certainly have undiagnosed #ADHD (inattentive presentation) as well as a few trademark #autistic traits, but folks nevertheless seem to find me friendly and approachable, and I can be fun at parties once you manage to convince me to go.

@mcnado Do ICE agents lock their vehicles when they’re out and about? It sure would be a pity if something like that were to go off inside one…

Finally installed Waterfox. I mean this in the best possible way: it's almost indistinguishable from Firefox.

I had to manually import my data (for some reason it wouldn't do it automatically at install) but apart from that minor issue, the transition has been painless and it's working exactly as I'd hoped.

Think I've finally got a new browser.

@LiamGilmartin Yup. Pretty toxic; just like a lot of fungi!

Particular to this article though, I remember reading a report (nigh-on three decades ago) about jimson weed poisoning cases in the southeastern USA, from accidental/unintentional smoke inhalation. It listed “visions of small green people” as a signature symptom of the condition.

@LiamGilmartin My first thought while reading this was, doesn’t jimson weed have the same effect?

@BritishKoalaTea I see a resemblance to Ron Pearlman. 😜

@[email protected] It does make me wonder how bad things have to get before some left-leaning 2ndA types, who’ve lost family/friends, get the bright idea to dress up as ICE officers, complete with masks 😷, and seek out some real ICE goons to extract that existential price from… 🤔
