One of the factors that lead to my current social isolation was how COVID permanently shuttered local coffee shops.
I got to know baristas and some of the regulars in those places. All of a sudden that human connection was gone forever. #SundayMusings
1. I think i'm the smol-est person at #FediCon2025 -- in the photos I've seen so far, it's very obvious (for the record, I am 5'0")
2. i really want a Capicola Monte Cristo sammich :ms_loud_cry: --- I think it's coz i'm overtrained and intermittent fasted for 2 days during the conference that I wanna eat something salty and spicy (likely my body saying "I need more electrolytes)
3. i really want to have dinosaur-shaped gyozas like what I saw from @Natasha_Jay's video.
I also learned there's a place in Mexico that does dinoquesadillas OMFG. I love spicy quesadillas! I can't remember the last time I've eaten a quesadilla so it means I haven't eaten those for more than a year (I went on an ayurvedic diet in Valentine's 2024 to Spring 2025) to improve my gut & skin health). Dairy was one of the foods I was not allowed to eat.
SRSLY: i love dinosaurs so any food shaped like it, I WANT TO PUT IN MY MOUTH #kuchisabishii #randomthoughts #sundaymusings
See the dinoquesadillas here OMFG

Die Tatsache, daß wir immer noch "Zollstock" sagen, zeigt wie lange es dauert, bis sich (auch fundamentale) Änderungen durchsetzen. Wer glaubt, mit einer genialen Idee die Welt verändern zu können sollte daher vor allem eins haben: Geduld und den Willen auch generationenübergreifend zu denken und zu planen. #SundayMusings
@chestas have you ever noticed the last rank is: ate, bait, Cate, date, eat, fate, gate, hate?
I am not saying that here, on my slice of the #fediverse, I found "my" people. What I do say is that Facebook, Twitter, Insta, TikTok, BlueSky, Threads are definitely not "my" people. But I would love to see all of them use a common language at the low-level -#ActivityPub. Once that happens, things can only get better :) #SundayMusings
the sky is blue

Today is #Sunday
How many #church leaders around your community and the world at large are spreading #farright #zionist (& #GOP) #hubris about #Israel's right to defend itself when the #truth now is that #Netanyahu has led #IDF into indiscriminate #revengesieges that extinguished the lives of innocent #civilians and #children in #Gaza? It is my duty to decent humanity to call them out.
Sorry if my #SundayMusings are not to your liking - it is too difficult to feel otherwise now.

Good #Sunday morning #mastofolks!
Sharing how to be happy from a wise and down-to-earth man:
“I get to work in a job that I love, but I have always worked at a job that I loved. I loved it just as much when I thought it was a big deal to make $1,000.
I urge you to work in a job that you love. I think you are out of your mind if you keep taking jobs that you don’t like because you think it will look good on your resume.”
-- Warren Buffett
Please read my latest short story, Eavesdropped Conversations. The hidden pleasures of listening to other people's conversations.
I think I've uncovered evidence that we're in "The Matrix".
I take the dog for a walk on the same route along the beach most mornings. I often bump into a friend or two and a few people I'm familiar with but...
There also seems to be an infinite number of people and dogs who are procedurally generated - I've never seen them before and never see them again!
For all my #artists out here in the #Fediverse :black_sparkling_heart:

Ian's Laws of Laundro-Dynamics:
1) A t-shirt entering the wash rightside-out will be removed from the wash inside-out due to the Entropic Wash Cycle.
2) A lost sock will remain lost until not more than one week after its match is discarded.
3) A fitted sheet will never equilibrate into a tightly folded square after it is removed from its original packaging.

I’m so used to NOT posting or replying or really engaging at all on the bird app (except for with people I know IRL) for fear of being harassed by all the crazies (although I was never what one would call a power user) that it’s gonna take a bit for me to get used to not just reading and scrolling but actually interacting with strangers again. And using hashtags. #sundaymusings 🤔
It's perhaps an esoteric reference, but the #Federated tab is an Untempered Schism: a glimpse into eternity that's bound to drive most people insane.
