Oh wow. Melbcat was in her bed by the window and when I brought her afternoon tea in I saw a huge magpie perched really close to the window just observing. It was basically standing over her watching her sleep.

I wonder what that was about.

The worst part is I can’t block dodgy recommended channels without being signed in. And yeah, it does still behave algorithmically for me.

So kids are still going to be seeing manosphere content, MLM crap, and whatever else. Not to mention alcohol and gambling ads if those haven’t successfully been blocked (which has been made harder to do without having premium unless you know how)

Same. I think Steam may have been added to the list for age verification but will need to double check in case I’m thinking of the UK version of this.

I’m not sure about email but am wary as Gmail addresses may be linked to Google search signins and YouTube which absolutely are going to ask for verification. I’ve been downloading media from Google drive and switching to different email providers on services that used a Gmail just in case.

to the tune of Get Lucky

Up all night cos sleep’s fucky

I was late with Melbcat’s afternoon meds due to nap and she hated being dosed directly… but lately she hasn’t been wanting to eat it in meals so I’m required to be the bad guy. (She eats plain unmedicated food just fine.)

The first California poppy has come up. It’s yellow, not the pale faded yellow of the nasturtium but a Cadmium yellow.

They always seem to be up in their feelings but I doubt it’s fear.

Or if it is it’s weirdly misplaced

Whatever gets the nutrients down you! You want to be banking plenty of calcium in your bones in your younger years

Yeah those threads… they get so pissy and defensive.

I’m sorry to hear it. It’s good though because it means he’s been seen and everything is being managed. Fingers crossed he’s okay soon 🤞

Yay painsomnia

I requested my data from the other place but it’s just given me a spreadsheet of permalinks to my comments and such… I wanted to back it all up as a private copy and delete from the site.

I’ve downloaded python and the Bulk Reddit Download files from GitHub but have gone wrong somewhere. The terminal command didn’t work.

Two of the nasturtium pots grew all of the seeds and are full of blooming flowers of the same colour. All of the seeds came up in another one but no flowers yet. Another pot has a single small plant with one flower of a different colour. There may be another single one that hasn’t bloomed.

Weird distribution. I planted the seeds at random and the same or a similar number in each pot, and all at the same time?

Edit: Damn I should have put this in the gardening instance. It’s looking a little bare and I’m trying to keep other instances alive

He looks like he’s laughing at a really good joke

That sounds cute. Not sure if these would be too big https://www.amazon.co.uk/Heavy-Duty-Weatherproof-Multipurpose-Organizing-Bundling/dp/B0CMXC1LH3

Good it works for you, be careful not to get dizzy

Craving a cup noodle randomly right now. Either chicken, oriental, or curry flavour. But they don’t agree with me.

I looked out before while it was still light and there were heaps of nasturtium flowers out. Most are red-orange but there’s one single yellow flower in another pot.

I got some chewable calcium, fingers crossed this one is tolerable. My back hurts -_-

I would reuse if not so lazy. It really isn’t as good tasting but it’s fine if you just want to have another hot drink.

I tend to use generic instant coffee for no waste
