"Mediocre Bunny" Evelyn

@LoganFive@beige.party Don't brag or boast or talk yourself up - be patient and wait for others to see on their own how good you are at things.

@ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org How will they let everyone who was planning to attend know it’s canceled? …Calling them all would take 10 or 15 minutes at least.

@taylorlorenz@mastodon.social This author blames teens’ mental health problems on things like the recession, adult mental health problems, and opioids- all things that would require deep societal changes to address. It is easier to (try to) kick kids off of social media than to change how the world of IRL adults actually works.

@futurebird@sauropods.win There’s an Oregon coast cryptid with no origin story that I know of. Bandage Man prefers the kind of rainy nights when the darkness seems impenetrable, and you’re alone with nothing but raindrops, pavement, and the huge empty void of the Pacific waiting at the bottom of the cliff on one side of the road. (Have I spent too much time driving in exactly those conditions? Yes, oh yes.) He doesn’t do anything- he just appears in the back seat of your car… */

@david_chisnall 😏 It's worked well for me to tell advocates of intelligent design to just take a look at the hormonal sequences involved in the human female menstrual cycle.

@catsalad@infosec.exchange @Viss@mastodon.social @cR0w@infosec.exchange Wow. I really have not been hanging out in the right wrong parts of Mastodon.

@TheBreadmonkey@beige.party @internetsdairy@mastodon.art BRB I have to go make contact with my arugula connection

@catsalad@infosec.exchange I think that just shows that your bubble/echo chamber* is doing its job. *these terms intended in a humorous, bantering, not at all derogatory way.

@paninid@mastodon.world At last, my opportunity to express myself by incorrectly quoting Dorothy Parker: Wappity Zappity, my red hen, She lays eggs for gentlemen. She cannot be persuaded, with gun or lariat, To come across for the proletariat. Take that, AI!

@MaryAustinBooks@mstdn.social @TheBreadmonkey@beige.party @LoganFive@beige.party We try, but leatherwear can be hard to find in beige.

@maxleibman@beige.party Now I want to go to a party that is just TOTALLY LIT! [sees your Tolstoy, raises you a Dostoyevsky]

@futzle@old.mermaid.town I had no idea my "fuppence" might be a real thing. Color (or count) me frice surprised. 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

@futzle@old.mermaid.town Possible thread swerve, but it's a story I seldom have any context in which to tell: An English expat friend & I (an American "inpat"?) were talking & joking about the old British money system, with the shillings & all. He mentioned that two pennies were "tuppence," and three pennies were "thruppence." So, I asked him if four pennies were "fuppence." He said that he really wanted fuppence. Lots & lots of fuppence.

@PetraPanda @EUCommission Or that someone would add festive cake & bunting stickers to their very dignified photo. 🙂

@Walruths@mastodon.social @LoganFive@beige.party So. Are you "feeding" the kitten or the mouse? (or the unicycle?)

@CheapPontoon@beige.party @dgar@aus.social Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don’t.

@ShaulaEvans@zirk.us @maxleibman@beige.party [saunters your direction, lights up a Melville, after offering you one from the pack]

(Arggh - hit send too early, & can't edit without losing results. Please forgive my typos.)

@futurebird My mind leapt to a sci fi saga where plastic objects were animate & sentient; & there were Tampon Applicator tribes and Bottle Cap tribes and Left Shoe tribes, all traveling and trading and warring (& having forbidden romances?) with each other. *not sure how the romance thing would work, but strongly suspect that I don't want to think about that too much.

@SordidAmok@mastodon.social I once nearly did pillory a colleague who threw an orange peel into the woods at a beauty spot in a State Park.(Sure it'll biodegrade ...eventually.) I had to remind myself that current law would probably not consider that sufficient provocation for grievous bodily harm.

@MichelPatrice @Strandjunker @Kierkegaanks So there is no speech. Or rather, what the friend/WH advisors/designated adult in the room said was “If you try to deliver this heap of vitriolic garble, it will become obvious that your brain is now toast.” What a complete non-surprise.

@lacroixboi@beige.party You could use your ill-gotten gains to buy stakes & rails to section off part of your yard, and then hammer those stakes into the ground with your fencing club.

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social Note that this is each written *line*, not each sentence. "Never Go You Let Now" is weird, even for an uncle.

@dgar@aus.social You forgot to add "...between the sheets." "You will continue to interpret vague statements as uniquely meaningful ...between the sheets." Works with non-meme fortune cookies, too.

@disorderlyf@todon.eu @ScottishGreens@mastodon.scot Sorry. Should have made much clearer that I think "Scexit" is a delightfully absurd & and very scexy word. 😜

@disorderlyf@todon.eu @ScottishGreens@mastodon.scot (semi-off topic) (preface to say that I'm all for Scots determining what to do with their own collective future; and I'm strongly of the opinion that Brexit is the pile of hot garbage that everyone said it was going to be) "Scexit" sounds like the kind of sex act you would need a room full of easily cleanable surfaces for.

@LRRRonEarth@beige.party @faraiwe@mstdn.social Like Mexico paid for the wall? 😏🤣

@Wallflower@beige.party And on fire.

@Troggie@beige.party That’s handy for transport. 🐈‍⬛

@maxleibman@beige.party What, he's just going to send us all head-sized gas ovens instead?

@Binder@petrous.vislae.town Maybe that's how we should tax the rich: "Just 100% of whatever you spent on recreational drugs last year."

@david@photog.social [non-Aussie spoils the thread] "Tawny Frogmouth" is definitely my new stripper name.

@DemocracyMattersALot & here I thought you were supposed to have your own picture on your passport.

@dgar Yup. That always makes me see red.

@EUCommission @PetraPanda No worries. 😎 In fact, you’ve treated me to that rare circumstance where somebody made an error and it wasn’t me. 😉

@EUCommission @PetraPanda 2026 - 1951 = 75 (Or is this a deeper question, & I’m being a Eurosplaining reply guy?)

@Kierkegaanks @lisamelton Oops- apparently it’s not as unobscene as I’d thought. https://toad.social/@grumpybozo/116415324612651567

@Nickiquote I'm thinking about going totally nutritioncore.

@faraiwe@mstdn.social @LRRRonEarth@beige.party Fair point.

@secretsloth@mastodon.art @maxleibman@beige.party Contingent upon donations/kickbacks from the natural gas & petite-sized oven lobbies, oc.

@helplessduck@beige.party Congratulations! 🥳🥳🥳

@osakajack@famichiki.jp Noticed this is from 2024- do you happen to know if it’s up to date?

@marlies@tacobelllabs.net I agree. It always feels weird to select the British flag on a computer set up to operate in American English. But, if we didn’t use flags, how else would/could languages be represented?

@attoparsec@clacks.link Big Brother has a thousand eyes.

@Jgbird@mas.to Thatsa Rabbit.

@marlies@tacobelllabs.net @Flittermouse@girlcock.club Wow. I didn’t know about that.

@micchiato@kolektiva.social The original machine-smashing type of Luddites; not the mere “too cheap to be an early adopter” kind of Luddites like me.

@nazokiyoubinbou@urusai.social @rotopenguin@mastodon.social @cmconseils@mastodon.social To get the proper "freedom units" equivalent, you have to hang the cake pan below the oven rack from (pairs of) wires of appropriately unequal lengths.
