I just realized there's probably #BikeTooter folks who haven't seen the 8rad, an 8-wheel, 2-seat recumbent cargo cycle, or its second iteration the 8rad 2 solar.

- A vehicle the size of a large car. At the front are two comfortable reclined seats for riders with pedals ahead of them and the first set of wheels. Behind them is a structure somewhat reminiscent of a covered wagon, with rows of solar panels all over it. Two of the upper solar arrays on the near side are folded out to catch the sun, while two lower arrays are flat against the side. Inside the covered area is a large flat platform. Three more sets of wheels are visible below the cover. A large half-dome of clear plastic over thin rods protects the front. (remote)

Your occasional reminder that while "life begins at conception" is often framed as a religious view, it actually has no Biblical basis whatsoever.
It was made up by Republicans in the '60s, who manufactured a rift around abortion to draw votes to their party.
They went out and found a couple of Bible verses that maybe kinda sound like they mean that if you don't think about them very hard. But the entire proposition is not religious; it's purely political. Don't buy the framing.

Mastodon FeedTime to listen to some of my mixes I created during lockdown. :blobcatheart: I really enjoy them and often think about making some more.. :blobthinking:
https://www.mixcloud.com/sandra-peters6/I also have 9 playlists with roughly 4 hours of music each. Those were made for our almost monthly livingroom dance parties during lockdown.
So making playlists or mixes just like that isn't a thing for me, but when I get a theme (as with the mixes) or some song wishes from my friends (for the playlists) I really enjoy finding other songs that fit in mood or style and make it nice and varied.

Watched a show that had that "Oh Yeah" song by Yello. You know the one, it goes "(oh-oh) Oohhhhh yyyeeeaaahhhhh," you've heard it every time a sitcom wants to show avarice or lust, it was in Ferris Bueller's Day Off, you know it.
Anyway I remembered that being the first CD my dad bought to go with his new CD player, and he was talking about how it was a very digital song it suited this new whizbang future digital format, and he cranked it up so hard the windows rattled, it's a happy memory
Anyway on the show I had subtitles on and there are lyrics? "Oh yeah! The moon! (oh-oh) Beautiful. (oh-oh) The Sun! Even MORE beautiful, hahaha! (oh-oh) OHHH YYYEEEAAAHHHH" and wow his voice was so distorted I never clocked he was saying that, it always sounded like mrrworrbrglebrglehuhuhuh
So I go look it up and there's an interview:
"First I did the music and then I invited Dieter to sing along, and he came up with some lines which I thought, ‘no Dieter, it’s too complicated, we don’t need that many lyrics’. I had the idea of just this guy, a fat little monster sits there very relaxed and says, “Oh yeah, oh yeah”. So I told him, ‘Why don’t you try just to sing on and on 'oh yeah’?… Dieter was very angry when I told him this and he said, ‘are you crazy, all the time “Oh yeah”? Are you crazy?! I can’t do this, no no, come on, come on.’ And then he said, ‘some lyrics, like “the moon… beautiful”, is this too much?!’ and I said, ‘no, it’s OK’, and then he did this ‘oh yeah’ and at the end he thought, ‘yeah it’s nice’, he loved it himself also. And also I wanted to install lots of human noises, all kind of phonetic rhythms with my mouth; you hear lots of noises in the background which are done with my mouth."
I love this, that this song used in sexy or covetous situations, is actually about this floppy-bellied lazy goblin just sitting around and appreciating the sky
Also I have this image of Boris patting Dieter's hand and looking into his eyes and going "TRUST me, Dieter, this chubby little flopgoblin will be a big hit for us"

I'll never mention it again because everyone would've forgot I said it. :)
But they are absolutely building their own federated protocol and #threads is the nucleus. We can look at #blueSky for a sneak preview.

I'm really stuck on this conspiracy theory I've got that Bluesky was designed from-word-Go to do something particular that furthered Twitter's goals. But now Twitter doesn't exist, and the sorta-Twitter thing that does exist doesn't have the same goals as the Twitter execs who spun off Bluesky. So the robot just keeps marching on and I do not know if the robot has enough self-awareness to interrogate its own goals
