@sean In the middle of the summer, when the sun goes down and the day cools down nicely as well... you'll find plenty of those blasted plant-eaters in my garden. :P

One day I'd had it with the gajillion snails in my garden and decided to take one long dark evening with a flashlight to catch all snails I can find.

Pleeeeenty of copulating snails too, and my gloves were terribly slippery at the end of the hunt!
Afterwards, the amount of plant damage was reduced drastically, though. :D

Yeah, I'm not really a romantic.. :P

@voltur@elekk.xyz Wasps are fucking assholes.

@bonifartius Heh, I moved from TAN codes via SMS to a banking app too. I actually find this convenient, since it's all scanning the QR code now.

@freemo I hope 20 lightyears (the closest star from that constellation) is far enough to keep us safe. :P

Had a chat with a coworker yesterday about how in world maps the African continent doesn't seem that very huge, while we're both pretty aware that Africa is actually bigger than it seems.

I was vaguely aware that the curvature of the Earth isn't really helping matters much, but there seems to be a little bit more to it according to this site:
edition.cnn.com/2016/08/18/afr

Also, even though I was aware that some countries/continents were smaller/bigger than what they seem like on maps, I wasn't really prepared for that huge a difference! Greenland, for example, is actually just a very small part of Africa's size!

Some other sites with some nice visual info about this topic:

My country is even tinier than I thought! 😋

@shadomeson Flawed in what way? It keeps scrolling from new posts? In that case turning on Slow Mode might help.

@mur2501 Good thing I barely use those services then. Telegram ftw for me atm.

If people are wondering what kind of puzzle games I usually play.. uh.. well this would be one of those. :P

@freemo Champignon creme. ;) There are tiny chunks in it I think, but they're too small to bother. Even those croutons are bigger.

@freemo And I respond to your objection with getting a Cup-a-Soup Champignon!

Nyah!

@freemo Amazingly vile, indeed! I've tried eating them, cooking 'em up and stuff. Nothing tastes good.

The only time I like mushrooms is in a champignon creme soup. Those can be delicious! I always fish out the solid chunks first if they happen to have those. :P

@freemo Having an icky texture and tasting slimier than a politician?

@freemo I'm pretty sure it's not the mushrooms. I hate mushrooms, see. :P

@freemo Damn, what drugs. I want to know so I can take it again next time! Y'know, for science!

@freemo Dunno about the expanding part. But the image starts to have a cool 3D effect when I stare at the middle for too long.

@ianmacd Ieuw. Die man lijkt me zo onstabiel als wat. Zijn uil lijkt me nogal verdwaald.
