@mconnor I'm pretty well addicted to the e-bike pedal-assist on the HSD at this point, given the hills around here 😅

@mconnor Ah, yeah, that looks like a pretty handy bike too!

I'm trying to decide if I'm a fanny pack kind of person

Huh. Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves was actually pretty good?

@socketwench ...but it could be 🤔

You ever get like, not a coherent part of a song, but just 500-750ms of a song stuck in your head? Like the CD is skipping in my brain.

I've got the "WOO!" from around 0:22 of "Dumbest girl alive" by 100 gecs stuck in there right now

I need a “microblogging” platform for just 1-3 second sounds. Like how neurodivergent folks just make odd emotive noises at each other instead of saying words. Just that but online.

(I mean i guess that’s discord but my brain is poisoned by broadcast social media)

@mdhughes heh but also…

(Sheep bleat)
(Meow)
(Fire alarm low battery beep)
(Bark)
(Giggle)
(Zombie moan)
(Water drop)
(Obnoxious bass drop)
(Burp)
(Minecraft villager)
(More farts)

@mdhughes Yesssss

Oh yeah, and another bike thought: I've put about 925 miles on my bike over a couple of years.

Not particularly impressive in general, but kind of impressive just for me when I had kind of stopped riding a bike much at all for the previous 5 or so years.

@jwildeboer @timbray It can sometimes take awhile for the preview to get picked up by your instance, FWIW. Each instance goes out and fetches the page to parse the metadata. It's the "flood" effect some folks have complained about whenever they publish a post with a link in it, hammering the site in question

Hmm, maybe a good feature of a reciprocal stimming audio platform would be a button that posts the sound back at the original poster.

Not a boost or a favorite, but an echo button. Like if you post a "meep-meep", all your friends "meep-meep" back at you

I kinda feel like that thing where folks hit the emoji response on a chat message that echoes one of the words or concepts found therein is similar.

Like, "I took the bus today" (55) 🚌

"Zydrate comes in a little glass vial" (3) 🧪

Tuning into ... well this is chaos from croatia

re: Eurovision Song Contest

@Shrigglepuss yes but also

Neon popeye arms are so in right now (I'm digging Finland)

@robertbrook@mastodon.me.uk

@craigmaloney Oh you like Rush? name 20 of their albums

@catbuttes @doot Entertainment center cables in the way? Chew a path through the brush

@doot @catbuttes I've replaced the same lamp cord 5 times now, trying a different cord cover material each time. I think now it's just a taste test for them

@catbuttes @doot now THAT's thinking with portals

@socketwench I think I wrote exactly this thing in a journal entry today

@futurebird I forgot what ant-lions were like, so I googled and this is what I found

@futurebird Also how to get rid of antlions

@mookie @jrconlin DUCKS AREN'T REAL. OTHER BIRDS ARE THOUGH

@otto I've got a gaming PC with me at the couch, and I've occasionally wondered how it might work to proxmox it into the basement and do "cloud gaming" on my LAN
