i'm not racist i have a white friend

don't fucking stare at them. this goes for basically every wild animal but also domestic cats. humans and dogs (which we co-evolved with over millions of years) are the weirdo outliers in nature when it comes to eye contact. for every other critter, they will usually interpret looking at them for an extended period in one of two ways:
• i view you as prey and am actively considering hunting you
• i view you as a threat or rival and want you to know that i'm not letting my guard down around you

most animals are constantly using their senses to maintain situational awareness of their surroundings, and the way humans prioritize vision over hearing and smell to zero in on only what's right in front of them is fucking alien to them.

this is *part* of why cats can't stand people who pay too much attention them and seem to gravitate towards people who ignore them. not staring means you're comfortable in their presence and lets them know they don't need to be wary of you.

it's different when you already have an established relationship, but it's critical for building trust with strangers.

Someone should have told me how good Old World Blues is before now

from an article that is the embodiment of liberal fragility and NIMBYism. some people doing some cool ass shit

you can lock your account in account settings to have more control over who follows you. i didnt know about this for like the first year i was here and its pretty useful

@stolas a single garbage company has been intentionally fucking up our tax system for decades https://www.propublica.org/article/inside-turbotax-20-year-fight-to-stop-americans-from-filing-their-taxes-for-free

Real talk, it's wild how American's have to file taxes. Its just all automatic via PAYE over here unless you own a business or are self employed.

The PS6 will be a thin client that is subscription only
The PS7 will be a pill you take. Instead of a screen, you just hallucinate the game.

white people, when was the last time you had to do extra shit to get your skin color correct in a game you're playing?

Valid wurm.

@ new people (and a few old ones): please for fuck sake thread your posts, don't make me go hunting for the other fragments of your message, this is not myst

you don't need a specific reason to not approve a follow. Someone's energy doesn't feel right sure go ahead. No pronouns in bio, sure. whatever reason you want is valid because no one is owed access to you.

#1 long term fediverse tip. turn off automatic following and make it so you approve followers manually. Be as arbitrary as you feel like with who you decide to approve or disapprove of following. only let folks have access to you and your followers only posting that you want to have access.
