The Mastodon instance I’m on has blocked all known Meta IPs as a preventative measure. So I imagine some admins will federate and some won’t, and users will be free to join the instance that they wish to.

My old neighbour tells me that the person who moved into our last house has been known to chase neighbours down the street to insist they come in for a cup of tea. So I think there is a line here where it can become socially awkward.
Busy, busy week ahead. The eldest is going to high school this year, so we have a parents assembly tonight and he has three full taster days, so the routine of the week has been thrown into chaos.
“80% of all those who suffer from tinnitus have a form known as “somatic tinnitus,” characterized by the ability to alter the pitch of the ringing in one’s ears by clenching the jaw or applying pressure to the forehead.”
Woah. I thought everyone could do this. I didn’t appreciate that it was releated to my tinnitus. That’s wild.
Doesn’t work on Jerboa ☹️ At least I now know why my feed seems to be filled with these html image links.
Can’t beat a bit of Marble Madness. I believe it’s in Braehead Arena which is used for Ice Hockey, so hopefully it has a beast of an AC system!
We live in Edinburgh, where the schools finish at lunchtime, so I have about 3.5 hours of freedom.
And this weekend we’re going through to the Play Expo retro games thingy in Glasgow tomorrow! Last one was in 2019, so looking forward to that.
Indeed. Hence the grimace!
I blame CSI and Law and Order. I think they oversaturated us with “of the week” procedurals drama so collectively we all jumped ship to these shorter, high concept shows.
The heat and the kids. Looking forward to the summer holidays! 😬
I remember when I was a kid we moved from Newcastle to Scotland and I swear it took my Mum years to get used to saying rolls instead of buns. I wonder how many iced buns she had to go through before getting it right.
I was listening to “Sonic the Comic the Podcast” recently and they were reminiscing about Woolies and I was trying to remember what they sold. But all I could think of was ZX Spectrum tapes and pick & mix. I guess… drills…?
I’m on the east coast of Scotland, and it must have rained last night, because it’s muggy af outside. I think all the moisture is just evaporating. Walking outside is like going into our bathroom after my eldest has had one of his marathon showers.
Recently I was at the dump an the guy in front of my had two full wheelie bins in his car. I thought he was the smartest person ever until I saw him try to 1) maneuver a full bin out of the car and 2) upend the bin into the skip.
