cobalt going beige today

@yurnidiot@mstdn.social Oh I sure am glad to see this. Feeling a bit more sentimental today than usual. I’ve been following the LA fires and thinking of places that were precious. PS. I would like to think this video isn’t AI assisted. I just want to believe it’s really a puppy buddy.

@TheBreadmonkey Whoa that’s a whole page of AI fakery! I didn’t imagine Google could get this bad.

@Bellison22@mastodon.social Just today, earlier, I kept thinking "I SEE you Corporations who backed down to MAGA, I SEE you News Media who backed down to MAGA, I SEE you GOP legislators who backed down to MAGA, I SEE you University Presidents who backed down to MAGA..." My list went on an on. And I stopped when I got to "AND I WON'T FORGET".

@hallunke23 @TarkabarkaHolgy Like “compassion fatigue”. That’s when even listening to friends who are describing ongoing challenges on financial issues or health concerns becomes too much for you because you have heard so many such stories you’ve got to take a break from hearing more for a little while. So “outrage fatigue” is like hearing or reading so many horrible actions taken by a government body you can’t deal with all at once or hearing too many stories so you need a break to regroup.

@TechConnectify I can't believe how I must have watched the original video and forgot about 1/2 of the tips. So today I watched this whole 27 minute video and was very impressed. It was not said in this new video but recently it was in the news that pods are contributing to microplastic particles in the water supply. So for ecological and environmental reasons I will be switching to the powder once again. Highly recommend US folks who use dishwashers take a look at this.

@davidpierce@mastodon.social reading the history here is a flashback to many approaches I used to make internet content organized and really useful to me in both work and personal life. Reader was a big loss to me 10 years ago and then later Google Plus. Now getting braced for Gmail to be axed perhaps in sudden but typical Google fashion. Great article here.

@GeekmomK@infosec.exchange @Deglassco@mastodon.social @notafurry@hulvr.com Thoughtful and excellent post. I believe you are right: Mastodon is not really social in a way to build social action, especially urgent action.
