I love that, thank you very much.

Sounds like a kid who didn't wanna be there raised hell. Lol
Kermit or nothing
The blackberries are ripening. I walked a friend's farm and picked a couple pints.
The locusts are out and singing of an evening.
The corn sweat has kicked in, it's muggy and smells like corn outside.
Life's not bad when you ignore the stuff they want you to focus on.
Just when you think that site can't get any more enshittified
You know what... I do use a VPN and adblock/anti tracking stuff. I'd never thought of that being the reason. Which I guess just goes to show how it defaults to "let's show this person tits and rage-bait, that'll likely keep them clicking."
That would also explain why YouTube, which I have a paid sub for, always seems to show me stuff I'm interested in. Hahaha
Then why isn't it full of gardening and woodworking posts, cause that's literally all I seek out.
I do not look at porn, nazi bullshit, or any of the other crap assorted sites try to force on me. The "algorithm" just sends you what it thinks you want to see, or what the programmer does want you to see. It's isn't some ambivalent god that just blesses you with what you're already looking at.
I keep vaguely informed. But watching it 24/7 is unhealthy.
Know what's going on, but don't obsess over it. Because, as you rightly state, there's nothing you can do about it anyway. Why get upset over stuff you can't control?
Bsky user here - I just want Twitter without Nazi bullshit.
Now get rid of the whole GCA and let me buy full-auto rifles at Walmart.
Got this notification when I opened Chrome when coming back to my desk after lunch.

"Make me a rustic picture frame" aka "Oh goodie, I don't have to sand or finish it!"
(midwest.social)
Acquaintance wanted a "rustic-looking picture frame" made out of "barn wood" for a jigsaw puzzle. I asked how fancy they wanted it. They said "Not at all." Okay then - here ya go.

My depression goes away in the Winter. Come summer I get seasonal agression and hide in the basement.
