(Dog Walk Report 6/23) Cosmo wants you to know: it is quite warm and muggy. The whole neighborhood was still. Pmails were scant again, an afternoon thunderstorm wiped the server clean. He started new chains for the others, and hit send with curly shuffles. The fireflies were the only creatures stirring. Air conditioning was greatly appreciated when we got home. #cosodogs #dogsofcoso #jrt #nightwalker #midnightramble

Seriously.

This is just a SLICE of the type of shit we have to deal with.

I told the FOH manager…”Ya know, some other restaurants go to a ‘limited menu’ for ‘concert weekends.’ She ‘oooohed’ and scratched her chin. 🤔😏

I've finally come to the point in my life where I'm starting to use COSO more as a 'user' and less as 'the creator' or 'sysadmin'.

I still have an extensive TODO punch list for COSO, but 7 years in, I've stopped having to firefight so much.

I don't know if this is a good or bad thing. Will update. 👍

@th3j35t3r

Over the years, you have sometimes "come out of the kitchen" to mingle with us, your guests at this amazing party you host

You are the creator/administrator, but you have engaged with us in a personal way

When you do, it compounds the fun we have

and it also powerfully shows that you do not see us as targets for manipulation

On other platforms, the admin doesn't think enough of the users to be authentically present

So to me, your involvement underscores your integrity

I may have to get into Lego.

@Gambit_1 @_txgal They have started coating wiring in a soy based type of material like plastic and the mice love it. PITA.

FUN FACT: Marjorie Taylor Greene thought her behavior in connection with Jan 6, 2021, was so legit and legal that she asked White House Counsel for a pardon afterwards.

Wanna see some crazy shit? 🤪

For Dad’s Day, we stopped at Hunter S. Thompson’s old favorite watering hole, the Woody Creek Tavern, for lunch.

In my city in Ohio, Pride is a BIG deal!! We have so many great families, advocates, and just plain awesome forward stepping people that the celebration here is huge! Well over 650 THOUSAND people were here for the parade/festival.. and I am so lucky to have known/friended some wonderful local folk.

@NorthernInvader This is a crime against humanity, as well as an underhanded and dishonorable attack on sovereign countries.

The people responsible should be tried at the Hague, and locked away from humanity for the rest of their lives.

But hey, it's not like our government at the time didn't sow even more misinformation on our own citizens, spreadind the disease and killing people at home, too.

The golden rule is not "Treat others as shitty as your own".

@Gambit_1

I used to get picked on from my family members that I'm like that bc I was born in the year of rats. 😞
