Can’t have a birth rate crisis and an immigration crisis at the same time—unless you’re racist. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino My skin looks amazing today npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino In my book, a tax on >$5m second homes is a vice tax, and I really see zero downside. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…xefq to be fair…reading Marx is a goddamn slog. He could have used a much less lenient editor. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…wm3n god it’s so frustrating. The presidio is incredibly beautiful and as I understand it, basically self sustaining. It is one of the few neighborhoods in sf that is affordable for young families. It is an unmitigated success. So of course…can’t have that. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino “If you give ppl UBI, everyone’s just going to be making pots or painting or something!” npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino Ok i have to make a main dish for my friends’ Seder. They are vegan. So kosher for Passover and vegan. Probably potatoes. Also I do not have a working oven. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…u7p7 for me, also, the goal of a lot of tech being pushed today is replacing humans and human interaction and I do hate that. But a lot of tech is also geared towards human flourishing, and I LOVE that. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…kyza I remember reading it and being like “how did this ever make it into the canon of US literature?!” npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…6jyx @nprofile…nzcs npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino My 3yo woke up and demanded sardines for breakfast. He ate like 2/3rds of a tin. Then he demanded to “drink the juice.” npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino 3yo: how much is how much? npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino My 3yo demanded apples with ketchup this morning. Horrible but, fine, if that’s what you want, you got it. Then he asked if I wanted to taste it. I obviously did not. This mofo turned these tables on my so quick with a “you don’t have to eat the whole thing but at least try it” npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…pfuj @nprofile…yw99 npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…pfuj @nprofile…yw99 npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino I truly love writing alt text, maybe particularly when it forces me to confront how little I know about the world around me. Like, ok this is a picture of a rock. It is…brown? There are things growing on it. They are…plants? lol I’m really sorry for the people reading them but listen, yall will know what I know. As little as that may be. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…2ujz remember when we drove out the taliban and they totally never came back? npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino Ok all, my step parents insist they don’t want things and like when I donate in their names. What are nonprofits that need some extra love (I know that’s literally all of them but humor me). They’re old hippies who care about unions, nature, children, human rights. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino I was at a kids bday party last his weekend and someone there was visiting from Tennessee. She said she was surprised we were letting our kids run off and play instead of following them around. She said in Tennessee everyone stays really close to their kids *to keep them from being snatched*. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…e4ry @nprofile…kcm7 npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…nks4 I haven’t read any of these! So exciting! npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…e4ry sorry to say but it seems like you’ve been led into an alternate dimension by some sort of magical creature npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino Has anyone made a gift guide to buy from artists/crafters/creators here on #mastodon? npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…e4ry teeth are horrible npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…6ljh I feel like the muppets more than anyone would embrace all our flaws and idiosyncrasies npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino My kids preschool teacher does this thing, which I just love. You’ll come in at the end of the day and he’ll say something like, npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino I’m trying to figure out if I should temper my excitement tonight but I feel like…this has been the most crushing, exhausting year. I’m just gonna be happy. This rocks. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino 🚨Alert! 🚨 npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…p9sc that’s awesome! If you can share, I’d be curious who they are. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino You think ppl should be resisting differently? Got a great idea of how? Great! Get organizing! npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino Just having a fond flashback of when #muni doors opened when you stepped down the stairs in front of them and how this design was completely unintuitive. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…args I’m 37 so I think I fall outside this. When I was coming up the hand wringing was all about hook up culture and how *much* casual sex we were having. But at this point most of my friends are married. One friend has gotten a divorce. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…eqw3 @nprofile…yj3v @nprofile…zex5 npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…yj3v @nprofile…zex5 @nprofile…eqw3 npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…zex5 @nprofile…eqw3 npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…9phy ok but if moms did it how much can it really matter? Moms are always obsessing over silly things. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino Please let today be the day I find my dog. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino Well npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino Sometimes I wonder how funds would get distributed if instead of passing laws funding different things, everyone got a tax bill of some % of their wealth/income and a menu of where they want it to go. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino Sooooo I think at this point it’s actually cheaper for me to just rent videos at the store than deal with all these streaming services. We’ve really come full circle here. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…39ss I listened to some podcast about people who have perfect memory and it was fascinating. They could do jobs like making sure film sets were consistent across shots with total ease. But they also basically never got the benefit of time healing any wounds. Like the grief of a loss never receded into the past. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…tmdj red tailed hawks. Partly because they’re beautiful but also they just remind me of home (even though they live all over) npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino Today my 4yo had me do a photo shoot of him… with his favorite bus. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…0ftr I mean just by flying there from the US you’ve emitted the equivalent like 5 years of only drinking bottled water for a whole house so… npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…2lya @nprofile…qz4x @nprofile…gvf8 npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…qz4x oh man what happened to their amoeba bumper sticker?? npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino Ok sure, bet the house on AI solving the climate crisis. But if that bet doesn’t pay out, who’s on the hook? npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…cygt that young infants should sleep alone on their backs in a crib. I just really think in the near future ppl will think that was inhumane to all involved and the move will be safe co-sleeping. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino @nprofile…args my parents bought me a really expensive pair of boots before I went off to college and I was so shocked by what seemed like an incredible indulgence. Nearly 20 years later…boots keep booting. Just needed zipper repair. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino It’s pretty remarkable to me how much the ideas of Always Coming Home by leGuin keep pulling at my consciousness, given that I was pretty ambivalent about whether I liked the book. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino Who’s #cooking what tonight? I’m making a new trout recipe and it is not going well. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino Do the small thing. The tiniest of victories feels immeasurably better than the endless string of defeat. npub1d9r6elqm4rdzzcaygd85ylxh8v29h2ehs70h53g6x6e24szy8dhqcemdez MinmiTheDino Hello SFBA! I’ve been wistfully thinking of switching over here for a while and recent fosstodon choices gave me the push I needed. So #introduction time!
