@Sfwmson I've not planted any because I've read Hosta can be toxic to dogs. I'll have to do additional research about that.

Speaking of the ancient and honorable tradition of drag, please enjoy Tom Holland doing “Umbrella" by Rihanna youtube.com/watch?v=jPCJIB1f7j

So folks, don't forget to check if your Ikea chair is compatible with your screen. I'm not kidding. A thread 🧵.

I've had the problem with my new screen for several weeks now, that every now and then the screen goes black for a few seconds.

Today I had enough and wanted to investigate the problem. So I started changing all the cables, plugging the screen into a different socket, and and and. Nothing helped.

Over-50 gamers feel overlooked, AARP finds

Yeah, gaming companies. I game every single day. I've been gaming longer than my favorite streamers on Twitch have been alive. Give me games I'd be willing to pay for. I am definitely not alone in this. Puzzles, resource management that doesn't have constant combat, relaxing, and that doesn't take a state of the art desktop to be able to play are things I'm always looking for. FYI!

A nice demonstration of how #geology underlies #ecology - different #lichen communities growing on Lewisian gneiss and a basalt dyke within it. #Raasay, #Scotland.

I don't know why this hasn't received more publicity, but this fifty-foot sculpture was unveiled recently in South Dakota.
It's called 'Dignity' and was done by artist Dale Lamphere to honor the women of the Sioux Nation.

Hi mastodon! I have a jewelry store at nora.jewelry/!

I'd really appreciate shares on this post, the Twitter exodus is killing my reach and sales have been low. Thanks!

Fun fact: during early development the gonads of the human fetus remain undifferentiated; that is, all fetal genitalia are the same and are phenotypically female.

- So, if biological sex can't be changed,
- And if life starts at conception,
- Then all men are trans.

Sorry, Republican men. You made the rules.

It's no UFO... but always amazing to see. Early yesterday morning, the all-sky camera at Poker Flats, Alaska caught something strange along with the usual green bands of aurora - an expanding blue spiral: vimeo.com/818040730 - The culprit: a SpaceX Falcon-9 launch from Vandenberg three hours earlier, with the Transporter-7 rideshare launch. The spiral was the fuel vent from the discarded second stage booster, spinning and creating an ephemeral 'galaxy' in the Sun overhead.

Clearing

Do not try to save
the whole world
or do anything grandiose.

Instead, create
a clearing
in the dense forest
of your life
and wait there
patiently,
until the song
that is your life
falls into your own cupped hands
and you recognize and greet it.

Only then will you know
how to give yourself
to this world
so worthy of rescue.

— Martha Postlethwaite

There is a #homeless man that I am friends with named David. He's lived in my neighborhood for over 12 years. He's not violent or dirty. He doesn't do drugs. He has a mental illness that makes him talk nonsense. He is #missing. Probably near Hollywood Presbyterian in LA. HELP US!

When Women Speak, Listen

Had people simply LISTENED to these two women — Anita Hill and Hillary Clinton — and TRUSTED them, our democracy and its judicial system wouldn’t be the shit shows that they are today, in great part, due to the self-serving misdeeds of morally bankrupt Clarence Thomas and Donald J. Trump.
