- Automated messages that call me “Nickname MiddleName1 MiddleName2 Surname” are so annoying. You clearly know my full name. You can call me by my full name. You also clearly know my nickname. You can call me by it. But why the franken-full name format? (Mastodon) ()

@williampietri@sfba.social It's cars. It's always cars. Both Monkeybrains and the preschool feel entitled to free parking on a plot of land that neither owns. It's almost like every problem in every city ends up being because of cars. I'm starting to think that maybe cars are bad. Cars make people DERANGED. Has Rudy Rucker assaulted anyone over parking lately?

Studies show monsters mashing earlier every year due to climate change
“I was working in the lab, late one night, when my eyes beheld an eerie sight. For my monster from his slab began to rise, and suddenly, to my surprise, he did the mash. IN THE MIDDLE OF OCTOBER!” Studies show monsters mashing earlier every year due to climate change by Posts by Mary Gillis

- “The American mastodon (Mammut americanum) became extinct about 10,000 years ago. They looked similar to mammoths, but were separated by 25 million years of evolution and show key differences, especially in their teeth. While mammoths had relatively flat teeth, which were good for grinding grass (their main food source), the much smaller mastodons had more pointed teeth —perfect for a diet of twigs and leaves.” #MastodonsOfMastodon #LaBreaTarPits (Mastodon) ()

So I’m on a lot of personal finance forums and subs and, one of the more annoying things about those spaces is how very often people suggest moving to a state where many women and trans people and other minorities don’t have any rights, because obviously halving your cost of buying a house is more important than like, personal safety. Also that so many of those folks have no clue why shit like that.. matters, how it impacts our daily lives.

I have just been informed by New Scientist magazine that World Standards Day this year is October 14th. Except in the USA where it is October 12th. This is further evidence for my theory that we’re living in a simulation in which the creator keeps turning up the dial marked “ridiculousness”. Doomed, we’re all doomed. 😂

I’m so pissed that Gavin Newsom vetoed the bill banning caste-based discrimination. This is the definition of a Pyrrhic victory. “Hindu” lobby groups have convinced the public and politicians that Hinduism is inherently bigoted: “But opponents of the bill said it unfairly targets Hindus because caste is a part of their religion. “ https://calmatters.org/politics/2023/10… #Caste #AntiCaste #California #SB403 #SouthAsianAmerican #GavinNewsom
