@Marmalade I can't tell you how heartening it is to hear someone name Pokémon and be able to go "holy moly, I know those!" 🤣

(Even then, I never finished Gen III)

JUST IN: ProPublica’s “Life of the Mother” series, which exposes the fatal consequences of abortion bans, has won the Pulitzer Prize for Public Service.

This is the second consecutive year we’ve been awarded this distinction and our eighth Pulitzer: https://www.propublica.org/series/life-of-the-mother

@jotyler That's ok, Jo. I don't need you to be my mommy.

You're already my pope. 🤭

@EverBeyondReach Now 0s don't count as digits? :SurprisedPikachu:

So this may be a bit diffuse but can anybody recommend any platformer that has as fluid and, for lack of a more helpful term, nice feeling movement as Skul: The Hero Slayer? Like smooth, responsive..

By way of contrast, Blasphemous or Hyper Light Drifter (which does not make them bad games), where the need for the feeling of impact results in pauses that break the flow of movement.

I realize I'm not explaining it well, sorry!

@somekindofgarf Yeah, literally almost all my doors have a little hole in them and you can hear them inside. 😰

@pomegranate_stew Yeah, my ex brought me some glue traps but I refuse to use them. They're just too horrible. I have one of the regular ones so I'm going to start setting it.

They're really cute but now it's a problem. I can't leave pots or pans on the stove 'cause they fill with mouse crap by morning. We have to rewash dishes all the time because they get in there too.

@retrosponge 😰 That sounds awful.

I'm pretty sure they've basically taken over a room we use for "storage" (a.k.a. a room full of crap we haven't cleaned or organised in YEARS).

New gender-neutral greeting just dropped ...

@pomegranate_stew I would happily trade all my pasta and old flour for the little bastards pissing off somewhere else.

Otherwise, I'm going to have to resort to poison. Toño (dog) has killed a whole bunch of them over several months (at least they die in seconds) but there are just too many now.

We don't really have "humane traps" available here, and it wouldn't be practical anyway. 😐

@pomegranate_stew The FUCK are they even doing there?! 😣

I have MICE inside my doors now.... fuckin' GREAT. 😒

@rand__althor :RIP: Skype

"I used you for like, a week in the late 2000s."

@EverBeyondReach Yeah, I've just about had it with goddamn "he's the Chosen one meant to rule" stories. 🤨

@pomegranate_stew The only thing I'm spawning is pounds* that won't go away anymore. :SadMuffin:

*Kilos, actually, which is twice as bad.

@pomegranate_stew I dunno what you mean. 🥺

I go to sleep every night dreaming of wiping out the billionaires, TERFs, and fascists from the face of the planet.

✅ ...and by "Black Widows" I mean the elite assassins from Marvel.

These natalist goobers need to learn how to read a graph.
