I had to convert from Common to Freedom for this one. Are y’all ok over there? I’m used to that kind of heat here in the desert but goodness I couldn’t imagine 115f near the coast y’all must be dying 😬

Years ago I purchased a Fossil Explorist Q wearable smartwatch. The first software update, about a month after I bought it, turned the device from a functional smartwatch into a brick that was so slow it was nearly nonfunctional.

The device was not powerful enough to run all the spyware they tried to pack into that update, turning it into an on wrist heater, occasionally getting Hot enough to burn me.

I’ve never seen a device so thoroughly destroyed by enshittification so quickly. That’s experience turned me off of wearables forever. Maybe I’ll make my own someday. Maybe I’ll get a Pebble now that they’re back-ish. I’ll never get anything with wearOS on it again. Hell after the last year I might never get something with Android/iOS again either.

I leave for the theater when its scheduled to start. I’m in my seat with usually a few minutes to spare. Its super nice living so close to the theater.

I’m on lemmy. I’m an artist so I also have an account on Pixelfed.art because it has a portfolio view I can show people.

Otherwise I am a non-participant in social media.

Porcine slang is quite versatile in English!

Pig: someone unkempt or otherwise undesirable.

Pig: an officer of the law.

Hog: to keep all or most of something to oneself.

Hog: a motorcycle, specifically a Harley Davidson or Indian Motorcycles style bike, rather than a sport-bike

Hog: I’m jorkin it right now, and by it, let’s just say…

Swine: a relatively outdated generic insult (ex “you uncultured swine”)

Pig-out: to engage in excess, to act as a glutton.

Wait is Jenkem the… Substance or is Jenkem the fumes that come off of the… Substance 🤢

People I know who don’t like Cats don’t like them because they expect them to allow them to cross all their boundaries like dogs do. You can’t expect a basically wild predator to respect your boundaries, you can however respect its boundaries and that is where the folks I’ve met who dislike Cats fail. They try to hold it and get scratched because it didn’t like it. They overstimulate it and get scratched because the cat didn’t like it. I’ve seen SO many people who dislike Cats because they don’t understand how to approach an animal with caution and respect, and think that because the wild predator responded to discomfort the way a wild predator would do, that Cats are bad or evil.

Edit, to clarify, my comment was about people who say Cats are evil, not about people who simply don’t like them.

Isn’t all Jenkem concentrated?

I’m my experience folks who call Cats “evil” usually don’t have a very clear understanding of consent or non-verbal communication.

Sorry y’all, that was me trying to update my jellyfin metadata
