It's impossible to please folks as in competitive mode if a team loses:

-Mercy defeats back-dive-flankers attacking her because nobody looks behind? MERSY Y U NO HEAL?

-Mercy takes out a sniper that everybody is ignoring and getting killed by. MERCY Y NO HLZ

-Mercy asks for sniper help. MERCY PLAY ANA KILL HER UR SELF

-Team kill happens while Mercy is desperately trying to chase after everyone who is off 1v1ing far in the weeds. MERSY U SUK.

Sigh. But I love Mercy. :D ❤️ 👼

A republican governor in Florida called people mutants and demons from another planet today.

While I would so love to own both these, and I will claim the demon part muwahaha, we can’t be mutants from another planet because a mutant is mutated life from the same planet.

For me to be mutant AND from another planet, the governor would have to believe that alien life exists. His religion won’t allow him to. But hey, welcome to and wondering about the equation. :D

Tried to do MIDI-softsynth with my M1 Pro last night. Forgot that there isn’t a headphone jack on “modern” devices. So how to send a USB digital piano MIDI signal to the iPad, and hear the iOS app’s softsynth? Don’t bother using AirPods, the delay is so high from key press to when the tone is heard.

So I’ve had to join Dongle Club(TM) and ordered a USB-C hub that has a USB A port and a headphone jack. Sigh. This used to be so easy on older iPads. So much for techno “progress”.

Lights' new chill-beats remixed version of her PEP album called "dEd" is very nice! Exactly the Sunday vibe I was looking for. <3

Taking children from their parents is one of the qualifying elements of a genocide.

IE: Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

got covered in freezing ice yesterday, felling trees and damaging homes, vehicles and more. Hundreds of thousands of people without power.

My mood-elevation-attempt comment to peers of “Climate change has angered the Ents” was not well received.

There's not a doubt in my mind that if Mr. Rodgers had known about trans kids, he would have invited them onto his show, shown them love, and taught a lesson to all of his viewers about pronouns.

Please stop using “mom” as an example of an unsophisticated user of technology. This reinforces harmful stereotypes.

Instead, I suggest using “congressperson”.

I really enjoyed Amazon’s Rings of Power. It’s not a Game of Thrones, but it’s so fun, moving and interesting that I looked forward to every episode. I’m surprised by the metric of how many viewers stopped watching it. O_o

@JayRobbie Thunderbird + @libreoffice as a Microsoft Office killer? We couldn't agree more! In fact, you might start to see the two of us working more closely together in the coming months...
