Heck yeah I'll give you a follow over on Bluesky. I'm following a handful of people that are bridged Mastodon users. Yours will be the first Mbin one though. I really hope all the kinks get worked out over time though because I really love the idea of interconnectivity.

The minute checks stop going out is the moment shit gets real. This will impact everyone. Yes the people directly getting checks will be in dire trouble. But I don't think most folks understand just how much our economy relies on this system. Business will take a hit, more people will end up having to support aging parents even more than they do already, and every working American is going to immediately question why they've now lost money to this system. Billionaires can fuck around with money because it's not really or tangible for them, but normal folks... Yea you just don't fuck with people's money.

I did the economic blackout yesterday but I donated to this charity after seeing the news. I don't have much either but I hope it helps.

I noticed that too when I watched the video. He's too obsessed with gold and has always been garish with it. I'm sure it's why he paints himself orange too. It's weird.

Hello fellow med tech. The science is the best part of the job. Just wanted to pop in and wish you good luck with school.

I don't subscribe to dull men's club but I've been enjoying the posts showing in my All feed.

Omg there is a name for that. I definitely fear eternity more than I fear death. My only consoling thought is the idea that time is a construct of physical reality so we "have time" to experience living and that really the entirety of time is happening all at once. I have no idea why this idea brings me comfort though.

Can confirm, I can see the post on Bluesky side but can't see any comments other than Bluesky people for now.

Yea I'm still trying to figure out how a fire truck can physically get around rail road arms. Like at that point why not just drive through them. They break pretty easily and would have been less expensive than destroying a whole fire truck.

Lories are wonderful and playful birds. Sounds like the little lost guy found a great home with you. 😊

Damn that zoo is right up the street from me. I haven't been in a few years so I had no idea they had pygmy hippos. They do have an emu herd that you can hand feed and a large aviary which is always awesome.

Ugh this just triggered memories of that scene from What Remains of Edith Finch (IYKYK).
