Real time. Hi I'm Dani, a medical lab scientist. I've been on the net since the '80s, so this isn't my first rodeo. :blobcatfingerguns:

If you don't know what we do, we make doctors look smart. We do all the blood and body fluid testing — , , , , , etc. We are the jack of all lab trades.

In my previous life I was in . I love all kinds of , , , , about games and media, , and . My guilty pleasure is .

I think, with a little patience and a lot of hard work, we can make this place just as awful as Twitter 💙

I don't know if this is appropriate here...
Our sweet kitty Ash is going in for dental surgery December 19th to remove one (possibly more) painful resorption tooth lesions, which will cost between $1400 and $1900 (to be determined after he gets his x-rays to find out how many teeth are afflicted).
Any support is appreciated!

“I’m worried about crime, so I’m going to vote for the party that will put more guns on the street” is a galaxy brain take

@joshtpm

I signed up for c.s a week ago and still haven't gotten my invite. That's the main reason no one is adopting it. No one can get in unless they know people.

@ohmbroo
Thank you! We have such a massive shortage of blood and donations make such a huge difference!

sick of those uppity, city-slickin’ USB3 hubs not providing enough current?

be sure to stop by and pick up some of Aunt Kathrin’s good olde-fashioned, homestyle chargin’ ports

NASA Wallops launch this morning, people! 5:50 AM ET (10:50 UTC). 90% Favorable weather for launch unless we get a wayward plane or boat, it looks good.

Anyone have a list of Ukraine OSINT folks that have made it over here yet? I need my regular dose of technicals (though they are so far past using techincals that I am in withdrawal, thank God).

I've got @osinttechnical. That's about it.

I've been calling it shitposting for, god, nearly 20 years, so it's kind of cemented that way in my brain. :ablobcatneon:

@geekaflame

Some of us need that kind of engagement or we look elsewhere. Different kinds of minds. :ablobcatbongo:

I'm 46 so it's not a Millennial / Gen Z thing. I need music on, something to read, Twitter or Discord on another device, maybe even a game going, too.

Lol did you see that the head weird nerd blocked the COO of the biggest marketing trade association that represents like 800 different brands? Like Jesus Christ.

@Pwnallthethings Other frustrations with this place:
- nobody is able to pay to insert "promoted" toots into my timeline
- nobody puts random cards into my timeline trying to entice me to follow people I don't care about
- nobody ever fills my timeline with random posts people I follow have liked

It's sooo frustrating to be shown only the things I ask to be shown instead of a bunch of random crap I don't care about!

Reports from aviation-safety.net that a Precision Air ATR 42-500 (5H-PWE) has come down in Lake Victoria. Pretty large plane.

Lotta complaining about the unintuitiveness and learning curve of Mastodon from people who use Excel on a daily basis.

@dcbaok
@seperis

The instance I'm on has them coded in by the owner. It works within the site and externally I think it looks like a link to the original toot.

@bluestocking
Absolutely everywhere you're going to buy those from are going to be buying them in turn from someone who has drop shipped them from China. The cheapest way to get them is to buy straight off AliExpress and make sure you just buy stuff specifically for food.
