@mavica :samaww:

@mavica while the computerfairi.es shipping and fulfilment centre is usually staffed by hedgehogs they're all off on their winter break so the orders will be packed by yours truly

@mavica it's a mavica!

@trashyfins @LaserScheme :samaww: eight legged fuzzy opossum friends!

@LaserScheme opossums are so good

@lune "let's get a bunch of people
and put them all in trees
we'll kill them all for odin
and hope we don't fucking freeze

don't know where this is going
it's all turning slightly wrong
I don't know any norse
and I suck at writing songs"

Yeah, sure, there's no problem playing "baby it's cold outside" every christmas because "it was a product of its time" but if I go around singing "let's get a few people tied up in trees and sacrifice them to odin this midwinter solstice" which was an incredibly popular song at the time (if a lot more pithy in the original ancient norse) then I get chucked out of lidl

@noelle "it was a product of its time" is an excuse for it existing then, it isn't an excuse for repeated radio play every year

@mavica cool, will do when I know

steam's saying delivery delays expected and that it'll be 6-8 working days to get to me, so might take a little while until that happens

@mavica right, I'll put the order in and find out the best way to get it in your paws

@mavica not entirely sure, don't know how big the package is (write your own jokes here) but probably under 20 quid?

quite possibly well under

@mavica £11.40 to me, then however much it is to send it your way, I'll do it if you want one

although showing "ease of setting things" next to a perpetual calendar is... an interesting decision

(perpetual calendars are massive pain in the arse to set)

I do enjoy when the swiss watch industry decides to take the piss out of stuff

:thaenkin: if you reduce the temperature of a genderfluid person do they at some point become a gendersolid?

if so, does this also imply that really hot genderfluid people become gendergas?

@auravulpes ah, thought something might have broke

yeah, we're running an older version, but I don't recall us missing any particular security/privacy features... I'll have to double check that

@sydneyfalk wheeeeeehearsal: practising a play while also going down a water slide
