I got cut off from my account that had some ebooks on it when I moved back to the UK from the US.
I forgot to change my 2FA mobile and had no access to the number once I left.
No way to log in.
Spoke to "customer support" - 'use another email to make an account' - how will I access my library?? 'It's fine'. It wasn't fine. I've never been able to get back in. UK support won't help, US issue, US won't help as I can't prove it's my account, or you can only use US numbers to speak to them or whatever. The two depts won't talk to each other.
And changing my address on our 'family' plan locked my partner out of the device for like 6 months. I so regret that we bought it. I use it with Libby and that's it.

I bought one 8L bag of 'Unherd' powdered oat milk to try, which should arrive tomorrow so, yay - but since Sunday they have now sent me EIGHT emails.
Please fuck off..??
Will be giving feedback on that regardless of how the trial goes.

Please remember, dog people, when it's breeding season (Spring/Summer), there are nesting birds and other wildlife hidden away in the grass, under rocks, behind trees etc.
Letting your dog run off-lead through meadows etc is highly disruptive to breeding animals and can kill them. You might not see or realise.
Please leash/lead your dog in open and wild spaces. Run with them, stay on trails and pathways as much as possible
Please.

libraries are also great! I get loads of ebooks from mine.
And authors support them too. Reading is very accessible thanks to them :)

the whole point of the Handmaid's Tale is that most of it has happened to women already somewhere in the world at some point in time. Atwood is clear about this.
The sooner people stop holding it up as some outlandish misogynistic endgame perhaps the sooner we can make more progress against the reality.

Finished the Talos Principle II base game
Good stuff, but imo not as good as the original. I'll get the DLC when next on sale.
Stil very relevant and important games, I think - if you're at all into philosophy and like some at-times-devilish puzzling, get in there. Music is great.

Also we could sing this in choir and it'd hit way harder, better (not necessarily faster) https://youtu.be/TW4Br9J9ie4?si=lMDPQSv9d9D90nS5

Yeah, there's a lot of positive to be had outside the gigantic, fashy mega-corps that have taken over/enshittified the most popular stuff.
That we can have this (or any) chat cross-continents and expand our understanding, get a glimpse into other ways of living and thinking - super valuable.
See the beauty of the world at our fingertips - and the constant horrors many of us were so easily ignorant of before, using righteous anger to push for better.
There's a lot of shit, misinformation and danger on the internet.
But it's also made of cats, so.
I am VERY glad we did not have 'social media' when I was at school - I do feel for kids/teens now, who have all this to navigate with so little support (or active making-it-worse) from adults and policymakers.

yep, like why did I waste some of my youth staring at the box where my dad insisted on watching golf, darts, fishing and other interminably boring stuff when I could have been doing anything else
The same movies I've seen 20 times though they didn't merit even a second watch.
Some things are better (some problems are more just... Family)
I'd say the fondness is largely just familiarity? People like that.

I keep saying this. Why are people so reluctant to be accurate and cause as little harm as possible when discussing these crimes?

naked portraits are not the same thing as targeting specific people and making nonconsensual sexualised and abusive images of them. Like at all. The former is art. The latter is abuse and harassment. Do not conflate them.

I was following loads of great cartoonists on my old account. I need them back. I want more!
Like @npub1hkp…sqkz & @npub1zja…mraq, whom I've found again - who are your favourite online comic artist, fedi?

Where my #WomenWhoGame at?
I'm glad to be slowly recouping followers and finding cool people, but there's definitely a bit of an imbalance going on here.
Are you: a gamer, birder, anti-AI slop comrade, lefty, singer, science writer... We might get on! Ladies, please say hi 👋👋

Thanks for re-following me, former and now current followers!
Much appreciate the intro post boosts, having my old account nuked means I've lost about 600 people :( so every little helps.
So poke me if I haven't followed you back and I was before, too!

Hi, I'm Marianne, AKA Noodlemaz!
I've actually been here since 2022 but my old instance just got shut down. Please follow me again here 🙃
I'm a science communicator based in London, UK.
I'm in London's nerdiest choir, Ready Singer One - we do music from video games, film and TV!
My PhD was in cancer biology; molecular pathology of cancer.
I love games, nature, SciFi friends (hi!), music etc. and look forward to chatting here :blobcatbounce:
