People can’t even grasp the concept of a billionaire. It just feels “rich” to them. But put it in terms of time:

1 million seconds is 12 days
1 billion seconds is 32 years

That’s what an obscene amount of money a billion dollars is.

I’m weak 😂😂😂💀

This is my nominee for least-covered, least-understood story of the decade. The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact is the righteous and plausible path to ending the Electoral College. No constitutional amendment required.

That seems too good to be true. Also, to wrap your head around it requires a bit of effort. It’s almost like (content warning!) math.

But take a minute or two, and the light will dawn. This could happen. And it should.

And this is why I leave my garden

Creatures need a place to live during the winter!

If any marginalized people want help setting up a mastodon server, I'm happy to help. I've been running my own personal instance for a few years out of a computer in my basement. We can do a video call, chat or whatever you're comfortable with.

This made me laugh. #genx

There should be a reality show called ‘Love is Bland’ where people who’ve been together for ten plus years load dishwashers and pick things to watch on Netflix

Sometimes it just happens, ya know?

I gave my taxi driver a big tip because he braked for a pigeon in the road.

A star will be born in the coming months! Not quite, but a star in the T Coronae Borealis binary system (T CrB) will explode as a nova between Feb and Sept and become visible to the naked eye.

How do astronomers know? It is because this is a “recurrent nova”, one that grows and erupts every ~80 years. It is known to have erupted in 1217, 1787, 1866 and 1946.

After explosion, it will be visible to the unaided eye for several days and about a week with binoculars.

Kids: MOOOM can we please stop at McDonald's?!

Mom: We have McDonald's at home.

The McDonald's at home:

@faraiwe Added alt text.

ME: hi, I would like to buy a hamburger for the same price it was two hours ago.

CASHIER: ma'am this is a WENDY'S.

Cashier: Welcome to Wendy’s. To celebrate our new surge pricing system, we have added a new menu item. It's called the Cryptoburger. Would you like to order one?

Me: Is that made with blockchain?

Cashier: No, it's made out of sasquatch and chupacabras. Never frozen.

If you're transferring your account to another server, before you actually do the transfer it's a good idea to rename your old account something like "(YOUR ACCOUNT) has moved" and put a link to your new account in the profile text.

Most Mastodon apps show links to new accounts automatically, but some don't. Renaming and including the link in the profile means everyone will see the redirect and new account, no matter what app they use.

For an example see here:
