If you were unfortunate enough to e-file your US #tax using HR Block, Taxact or Taxslayer, your most sensitive financial information was nonconsenually shared with Facebook, where it was added to the involuntary dossier the company maintains billions of people, including people who don't have Facebook accounts.

Americans: Happy Thanksgiving. 🦃🥔🍠🥧

I hope you have good food and good family or friends to celebrate with.

Non-Americans: Happy no Americans at work day.

The real duality of man:

Everything is a disaster, but everything will be fine

Them: "Mastodon is hard to use."
Me: _gets started easily_

Them: "The #fediverse is fragmented - hard to find anyone."
Me: _easily finds many folks here I know or enjoy_

Them: "It's just white male tech nerds"
Me: _discovers fairly robust presence of non-white, non-male folks_

Them: "It's set up so it's antiviral"
Me: _sees more interest in my thoughts here than ever on the birdsite_

Them: "Local servers are like isolated islands."
Me: _finds a canoe to explore archipelago_

hot take: the more i use it the more i feel like C is an overgrown scripting language. the basic syntax and concepts involved are extremely simple, it runs on virtually anything, and its very resistant to having code in more than a single file. that's a heccin scripting language if i ever seen one
#C #programming

If you don't have anyone to celebrate Thanksgiving with, I will astrally project myself into your house tomorrow.

Don't do any weird shit and make sure your dakimakura is in a tasteful state between the hours of 3 and 5 PM.

Sweet potatos (yams, are fine if you don't have any) and stuffing are my favorite part of the meal. make extra. I will get drunk and say retarded things to make it awkward.

Thank you for hosting me (in spirit) 🙏

Proposed resolution:

When Tumblr joins the fediverse by implementing ActivityPub, we should:
- Defederate Tumblr if they inject ads into the federation for our users, and
- Defederate Tumblr if they place federated posts (our posts) alongside ads.

No ads on fedi.

Edit: This is a PROPOSAL. The intent of this is not to dictate terms, but to encourage admins to develop and consider policy before the crisis happens.

The cat gets out.

Mai accidentally gives Yuuko the cold shoulder because she has headphones in.

Yuuko tries to copy Mai's homework, but Mai keeps handing her comics instead.

Hakase adopts the cat and names him Sakamoto. She invents a scarf that lets him talk.

When designing your game, you want some visual icons for important statistics. Hit points are easy (hearts) and attack and defense are sword and shield, respectively. Gold is simply symbolized by coins.

But what of Experience Points? You can't just use the letters XP. You need a visual, symbolic representation. And finally we have one:

A potato.
