@eliasg because your activity helps build your profile.
It's possible for the expats to protect/lock their mastodon accounts and converse with each other.

I've always been misanthropic, but since my brother died 4 yrs ago and only the extended family who DIDN'T use Facebook sent condolence messages, my estimation of them is... well, i have better regard for slugs.

@tomasino That heating pad is underneath the 19 yo cat 23/24 hrs. Perhaps I need another for the 15 yo cat.

@schmutzie That's a true mark of a generation gap isn't it? "I don't have to show you this ID. It's a merchant manual violation to make my ID presentation a requirement for purchase." "It's for your own protection." "I'm well aware of the extent my credit card issuer protects me."

猫の所有者：暖かさのために猫があなたの膝の上に座っていないようにするにはどうしますか？ 彼は天気が気に入らないので外に出ない。

#cat owners: what do you do to keep a cat from sitting on your lap for warmth? He won't go outside because he doesn't like the weather.

Please listen to "Intergalactic Wasabi Mix" if you can. It's streaming now.

#readers of #AmericanLit and #20thC #essays and #nonfiction: I am keen to introduce the writings of #HLMencken to my Fine Young Son. His youth is of age and life experience, not vocabulary or critical thinking. What #recommendations do you have for a representative assortment of Mencken's essays and opinion editorials?

"It's WET out! You messed up on the WEATHER! This is YOUR fault and you need to CHANGE it NOW so I can go OUT!"

"I don't care if the male biped drove me to prison and back. YOU let me rot there in a cage with other caged cats for TWO WEEKS! GET AWAY FROM ME, you fickle, cruel Deity!"

night time is also dark night of the older cat's soul: "I need you why don't you talk to me I need you why aren't you here I need you give me an answer where are you God"

Listening to Mark Hollis is like eating potato chips, except for the waist-thickening bit. Here he is sounding like his hero Arthur Lee of Love, in 1978 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WG3upOuSHWk

@xmanmonk pronto is a way of eating that restricts the range of foods to microwaveable.

The reason Mark Hollis looks great is because the difference between photos is eight years. If he looks like his 1991 picture in 2018 I will switch to his way of eating pronto.

Part 2: 80s Pop Stars

Bitchy comment: Paul Weller ("The Jam", "Style Council") is this decade's anti-smoking PSA poster child. We're talking Bette Davis territory.

I am watching YouTube videos of 80s Pop Stars today, and so many of them look great and healthy over 30 years later, some of them hot daddies. Green Gartside of Scritti Politti was a shock https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2BvNUQrxNxo.

mastodon.cloudはロシアのスパムロボットによって無視されるほどの日本語ですか？

This morning I wonder about peoples who created letters for their society's alphabet then decided not to pronounce them. E.g. English and the letter 'r' in the words arse and better. English transplants to other continents decide to pronounce the letter 'r' in those words. Does this happen with other 'Empire' languages (e.g. Arabic, French, German, Portuguese, Spanish)?
