@JWBananas@Rentlar@SilentStorms sooo... the follow-up had a very specific point. Many people were getting a residue after trying powder detergent, and I wanted to help with that.
My main issue with detergent pods isn't so much that they're wasteful, per se, but that they cost a lot more for, potentially, worse results.
Many dozens of people continue to tell me that trying powder detergent both saved money and made their dishwasher work better. I stand by that.
It seems you have replied to, and carried on a reply chain with (meaning that presumably notifications went both ways), a user on Kbin from your Mastodon account.
I'm probably a bit late to reply, but... He was @ mentioned in the body of the original post, which Mastodon would have notified him of because mas.to is federating. Opening the notification would bring him to this thread on Mastodon, where everything would appear as it normally does when viewing a thread on Mastodon. From there, you can hold a conversation as normal with notifications and all. Unless you were looking at instance URLs, you probably wouldn't even notice the user you're replying to isn't on Mastodon themselves.
PSA for any fellow Linux CS players out there: the June 20 update to CSGO made the game crash on every launch for me until I disabled the Steam overlay. Not sure exactly what the cause was, but I suspect something with CSGO doesn't play nice with the redesigned Steam overlay.
As more and more instances are providing multiple services under the same management, we need a term to talk about this type of arrangement. A Fediverse Galaxy is a collection of federated software that is provided by the same admin or collective.
Even if Trump loses in November, even if he dies in prison, today's #SCOTUS ruling on presidential immunity is a set-piece for absolute tyranny.
As soon as the GOP returns to power, America will devolve into a pure fascist state. They've laid that out, and now their court has granted them that power.
Far-right extremists broke the highest court in the land -- a fascist's hand-picked judges keep ruling in his favor. They don't care about #trump
This graphic was part of a Facebook post I found helpful (see link). I saved it to remind myself that I'm not wrong or a terrible person just because I'm anxious; there probably are reasons (often the ones described here). I'm hoping that identifying them and working on accommodations might help more than my previous approaches (since those were "hide all your feelings and push through" or "tell yourself this doesn't matter" there's plenty of room for improvement!)
This reminded me of this quote. And I relate.
Learning how to regulate and embody one sensitivity is an ongoing practice but definitely worth the effort. ✨️🫶🏻🧘♀️✨️
@Ilovechai@Autisticaurochs@actuallyautistic@autisticadvocacy@actuallyaudhd@neurodiversity Great, I'm the James Webb Telescope, but never had a team of NASA engineers before I was put into orbit. Now I'm stuck up here with no way down except burning up in the atmosphere and it's cold and scary and there's too many other things in orbit wizzing by me.
Or maybe I just take analogies too far sometimes. 😝
My Pride Street paranormal cozies are the queerest of them all, plus… corgi sleuths! They aren’t for sale on my site yet, but like all my books, are on all retailers. You can also request from your library.
@thorncoyle@lgbtqbooks@bookstodon These were lots of fun. Love Marsha P. Johnson, corgi detective. The whole gang in that Portland Gayborhood sounds like a fun place to live.
