The US government is doing something hateful and stupid, science is awesome, the UK government is doing something hateful and stupid, trans people are hot, people are making crafts, the catgirls are meowing at each other, Ben is storing Creme Eggs in a medically inadvisable way and you should use Linux. Post hourly. You're welcome.
@afewbugs That thread on the OP is a wild read. Fucking hell.

@robincrow I just can't get my head around how much he apparently did not expect the reaction that anyone who had been on Mastodon for more then two minutes would have predicted

@afewbugs I want to read what the people I follow wrote not some LLM's idea of it, also summarising posts from a microblogging site is surely the peak of attention span failure, if you can't even read the relatively short posts from people you chose to follow

@TheBreadmonkey @SaguaroLynx without wishing to victim blame, had I stumbled across this news story I don't think I would have thought "You know who are a mature bunch of people to share this with who won't make any weird insinuations whatsoever? The good folk of Mastodon that's who."
