That was such a fun race to watch! George deserved a podium, but still such a great drive by my favourite diva.

I'm excited for quali later and the race tomorrow

Dear f1 broadcast people... the "to leader" timing page is absolutely fucking useless in a race. It's great for quali, but the race timing page should be intervals, kthnx

I had the misfortune of seeing the thread for the twat who wants to ban gay porn on fedi...

He wants to do this ostensibly not because he's a homophobic bigot, but because surely we want to make fedi

* family friendly
* more appealing to the masses

I say this with my whole chest... no. We don't.

“perfect now all it needs is my signature stamp”

lmao

I am smol goat
I stand on molasses
I do not care
How sticky my ass is

Today's plan is car go fast and knitting. I'm onto the second sleeve of my Ginger top and pretty soon I get to start the decreases which is very exciting.

Might get the fabric cut out for a new top, I'm so desperate for some new shirts that even with all the commissions I gotta make the time.

What are you lovely people up to?

Hang this in the Louvre. A perfect post... I made a description card.

Pro-tips for anyone creating an address form.

ZIP code is not a generic English term for postal code, but instead a very specific USPS thing (it stands for Zone Improvement Plan). If you serve anyone outside the US of A, call it "Postal Code".

Not every country has states, don't make it a mandatory field.

Many, many more nuances to international addresses, but these are the ones that bother me most as a Belgian.

California’s Point Reyes is getting a rare chance to rewild after a 2025 legal settlement led 10 of its 12 commercial cattle operations to leave the park. Around 69 km² of former ranchland is now slated for restoration, including some of California’s last native coastal prairie. Elk — who used to compete with cattle for forage, and were fenced into a peninsula — rejoice. The Revelator https://therevelator.org/rewilding-point-reyes/

You can't grow a forest without nurturing individual trees along with the supporting ecosystem. The trees make the forest.

It's easiest to start on fertile soil with all the necessary resources, but it's not impossible to start with very little.

Pruning helps a little, and you have to be extremely decisive early on with aggressive invasive species.

This post is about people and communities.

But comparing gay porn to execution videos as if people taking part in a performance with consent is somehow the same as someone *literally being fucking killed* is just.. I don't even understand how a person could stitch those things together

If you don't like what a server hosts, block them. If you don't want to, that's on you.

It's absurd and entitled to expect other servers to curate your timeline for you, particularly when you can do it yourself.

Expecting other servers to ban pornography because you don't want to see it on your own is the most stretch armstrong reach I have seen this week lmao

#3GoodThings #Today

1. Having someone talented and further ahead in their career than me take the time to help me hone an idea.

2. Ordering in takeaway for dinner cuz it's been A Time.

3. Experiencing the joy of Ted Lasso for the first time.

Why are we so against art theft until the art was made by a sexworker?

If you see accounts that get off on posting stolen nudes, tell them to get off Fedi.

It's art theft. Report them.

My body, my right to share it.

#PornRequiresConsent #StopArtTheft

I would kill or die for Larry the cat.

8 minutes into the first episode and I think I'm in love with Ted Lasso.

(no spoilers pls, this is my first watch!)

In case you missed it: getting the #shingles #vaccine lowers your risk of dementia later in life by 20% and even slows the progress of the disease for people already suffering from Alzheimer’s.

Shingles itself is awful: painful and even mentally debilitating. So please consider getting the vaccine.

As I get older, two things happen

1. My eyesight gets worse

2. Visual information is being progressively removed from user interfaces to a greater and greater degree, such that I need better eyesight to use the same apps to the same level of capability

Also, apps now frequently auto-update and move things around, just in case I wanted to learn to use the app by simply memorizing the positions of icons

In recent years, the number of #SpaceFlights has grown steadily... and will continue to grow in the years to come. This is not without #consequences for the chemical composition of Earth's #stratosphere.

Scientists believe it is time to study the potential effects of the chemicals released during a satellite’s #launch and #re-entry phases on the #ozone layer, the Earth’s #climate, and #life on Earth: https://www.essc.esf.org/2026/06/25/pr-airl-whitepaper/
