Alien Enemy

@chu@climatejustice.social the thing that’s been on my mind is that “we had no control over the bad thing it did” is… not the great exoneration they seem to think it is.

@nein09 I feel like a porchestra has to include Kermit on the banjo.

@nein09@weirder.earth That and that it's the sort of wrong belief people have because they do drivers' ed in schools but never learned the actual rules for riding a bike.

@nein09@weirder.earth It's such a car-headed way to be wrong too, though that's waaaaaaay down the list of things that make this shit annoying.

@carkner "I'm shocked that there was politics in this event called 'Yiddish Revolutionaries'" :facepalm_g1: The museum's response is disappointing, tbh.

@nein09@weirder.earth ITYM feature

@nein09@weirder.earth I'm picturing a character played by John Cleese.

@futzle@old.mermaid.town the option I want in the poll is “great word, sounds weird spoken by people with no trace of a South Asian accent”

@ghost_bird@weirder.earth a terrible accident that I’m certain you’ll regret for the next zero seconds.

@ewen why am I craving waffles now?

@emjonaitis@mathstodon.xyz whew that one took me a while.

@attoparsec@clacks.link ahhhhh, it looks so good with the cloudy sky.

@joXn @attoparsec I was familiar with the trope before moving to the US in 2003. Oddly, I can’t think of a UK equivalent.

@beandreams I got instant evocation of Win 3.1 from that ribbon. I think it wasn’t the default palette but must have been one I had selected for a while.

@skyglowberlin This is fascinating, thank you for getting into the weeds a bit. I'm so used to just treating satellite imagery as though it's from the zenith; I'm accustomed to season mattering, and sun angle in daytime images, but I just hadn't thought about this aspect of the challenge in your kind of work.

@skyglowberlin On further reflection, I think it's likely that most imagery I interact with has already been normalised to at least some extent.

@th@social.v.st I also love your pencil case / tool bag.
