@scorpiontongue@kolektiva.social Disarming domestic abusers would at least save us a bundle on police salaries

Today I learned that Veronica Mars's father was previously the Thermian leader in «Galaxy Quest». D'oh!

@Popehat I am faintly disappointed that you corrected “egocentricity” to “geocentricity”; I imagined a radical economist proposing a distributed version of the principle of self-interest.

@LizardSF You know, it's a long time since I last heard those last four words.

Reading 20yo blogs and webcomics and wondering how dated they are to those who aren't so far out of touch as I am

Can something be a be-all *xor* an end-all?

“So you made the world, good on you; but what have you done for me lately?”

My kitty made a noise that made me think of the harmonica in «Once Upon a Time in the West».

And now it works again, presumably because I posted about it.

Argh, my Firefox suddenly won't save images anymore. The beachball spins for a bit but the dialog box never opens.

@LizardSF So the crown union with Scotland never happened? (And how much does that matter?)

For years I have washed my hair with a Kroger-branded knockoff of Head & Shoulders.

Yesterday in another supermarket, finding no dandruff shampoo other than H&S, I bought the real thing for once.

Today I used it … and now I'm going to wash my hair again to get rid of the scent, which persistently stings my eyes.

This is a recent phenom; perhaps an early sign of dementia. Or, as some might say of me, merely the latest.

I have lived with cats for forty years in all; and yet sometimes, when I see them moving about on their kitty errands, a little part of me goes “what the heck is that? how is it possible?”

Scrolling here is very strange.

@trinsec Found it, thanks. Standard does include “Mastodon light”.

Last weekend I signed up on this and two other instances. I might prefer qoto simply for its white background, or is that user-configurable?
