There’s a dot on a blank spot. Weird. Go back and squeeze in the i Turn to the next form and… DO EXACTLY THE SAME THING AGAIN. At this point I’m looking at my hand like, have we met? What are you? Another issue - same forms Trying to write Amaxxxx And instead of an A and an m i end up with a 3-4 peaked mountain range like ^^^^ but all various heights and a random one in the second or third position has the crossbar of the A in it. So. Okay. The first time - lazy/error/old age But the second time? When I slow down and try?

You can’t buy raw ice cream or syrups without dogshit added. And instead of resisting this, stopping buying shakes altogether, or learning how to make ice cream at home from scratch, 99.99% of people accept this, and just eat dogshit when they want shakes. And if you think this is crazy far fetched nonsense, you obviously don’t understand…. Windows 11. Ba dum tish npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 @nprofile…xzsh I’m not sure i follow npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 (if you’re wondering where Wendy’s is at this point of the story, Wendy’s has been total dogshit since they sacked Dave Vousden in 2012) npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 Next all the little local dairies get into the action. Tip-Top’s offshore owners announce supermarket bought ice cream will contain 25% dogshit from Q1 FY26-27. So it starts to get tricky to make dogshit-free shakes even at home. npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 A few weeks later again, BK follows suit. The increased demand for dogshit starts to press the price a little. Dogshit is no longer found freely lying around turning white in the sun. npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 Next month it goes up to two teaspoons. A few McDonald’s franchisees start to make noise about this being bad for business but corporate are adamant: it’s cheaper than the other base ingredients by weight. Any milkshake business that isn’t bulking out with 2 tsp dogshit per shake is going to be left behind. npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 I mean… what are you gonna do? Change to a different store? Learn how to blend milk, ice-cream, and syrup at home? Come on… Be real. npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 Starting tomorrow every McDonald’s shake contains half a teaspoon of dogshit. But, listen. It’s blended right in. It’s icy cold. You can’t even taste it or smell it over the base ice cream and flavour syrups. So, it’s fine, right? npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 This paints a very different picture of the Gordonses involvement in the management of Epstein properties I mean never mind the lottery winning antics - which is FUCKING INSANE - they’re described as PROWLING in Santa Fe and Albuquerque for VICTIMS #rpb https://alisav.substack.com/p/yes-jeffrey-epsteins-zorro-ranch https://o.mastodon.nz/media_attachments/files/116/296/591/861/360/326/original/e507ec73bc89f4c2.png npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 PUFFPAINT MOTHER FUCKERS hell yeah https://o.mastodon.nz/media_attachments/files/116/294/250/192/109/318/original/289ea50213e9d0d1.jpeg npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 Dude in line in front of me had a ticket for an Australian show 😳 that won’t work mate npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 I got one fat bastard tee shirt 👍 npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 They better not have sold all the fat bastard tee shirts to the overflow show crowd tho npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 Mild heart attack I suffered when my teammate said they had a good time at Electric Six LAST night 💀 DID I MISS IT??!?

MOSTLY I am doing this on the cheap (but time intensive) with op-shop/online/friends houses/storage units CD scrounging. And some re-buys of classics on Bandcamp (alongside fresh new tunes!) And re-downloads of humble-bundle tunes in lossless formats, which i didn't appreciate the first time around. But I can hear the difference now (! maybe not between 360k mp3, but 128-192? for sure) While rebuilding my new (old) phone I kind of tripped on all my historic iTunes purchases - hey - why are these LOSSY AACs instead of shiny LOSSLESS ALACS (or something)? Well... SURELY I can re-download all these purchased things in the gooder format, right? (Mild spoiler: no. no you actually CAN'T. The lossless format is unrelated to purchasing, only subscribing. But I don't know this yet, at this point of the story!) Well. I don't have windows (along with iTunes) anymore either. And I've burned several hours trying to WINE iTunes and I'm not doing that again. So. Sidequest - what else can access Apple Music / iTunes purchases? APPARENTLY this application called Cider exists which can connect to and download your Apple Music without Apple Music platform/windows/mac. Sounds Great, right? Well... It's NOT. After BUYING it and installing it - it won't authenticate to Apple Music. Hm. Reinstall a different package? No. Learn how to run from AppImage? No. Learn how to install from repo using command line? STILL NO. Update all possible/plausible dependencies and re-try all of the above. Still nothing. But I did learn about all those things (unwillingly). Hmm. Look in the forums. Comments dating back to Oct 2025 and as recently as 3 weeks ago: "Hey! This thing won't connect to Apple Music! What gives?" There's a sucker born every minute... npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 i'm so fucking dumb i just spent about a day (on and off) and $8 of actual money trying to "fix" something that isn't broken / do something that would never work, and buy something to do the job that can't be done (and doesn't work) mute this (short thread) if you don't want to learn from my example - may I be a warning to others npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 But If we don’t register for the protest the caterers and merch vendors can’t plan accordingly think people npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 Too real #rpb npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 @nprofile…2y0p I npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 Sending dickhead a letter in the first place was a tactical mis-step 🤷♂️ But THE JOKE DOESN’T REALLY WORK IF ITS NOT IN CRAYON There’s a Whitcoull’s ten minutes down lambton quay.

What is this even?!? npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 Tintin always gave me the ick as a kid but i cannot pretend i was doing a discourse, I just thought it was vapid. Compared to say, Asterix, or reading kid-trap scifi like Ray Bradbury #rpb Realising as an adult you have to read past a lot of racism to retain the wordplay juice of Asterix... I wouldn't die in a ditch to reclaim or rehabilitate it. I just really liked them puns. Finding out that Peter Jackson is a hard out Tintin stan explains so much 🤣 BUT WE WEREN'T ASKING FOR ANY FURTHER EXPLANATION 😭 npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 i'm serious about intermission though - i'd need to dehydrate for an hour in a sauna to do a 120+ minute runtime without a pee break if you want me to buy popcorn and a big gulp soda, i'll need a catheter putting in or an intermission break npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 oh, project hail mary is OUT NOW npub1f3l6au4fetun05gt6qhfgz5sxwv2zad93f3at938nw85c39gpd8sy3m9fl 🐙ptoothfish🐙 anyway... i'll probably go to dune cubed https://o.mastodon.nz/media_attachments/files/116/258/423/236/436/142/original/1dc75a9c1c7b8e48.jpeg
