A slight #Introduction

Hello I'm James. I've bounced around the internet under the handles of SeniorCitizenKane, or MisterPants, and lastly as Mayornaise.

I'm socially awkward and shy irl, very much an introvert.

I do a lot of Like and Boost, less so self penned toots. I'm recovering from a serious stroke, and that took away my funny creative toot making.

I've been a guitarist my whole life, the stroke ended that as well, but I'm struggling to play again if I can get my fingers to cooperate. I'll get there. If nothing else I am an eternal optimist.

I come in Peace and Love, and if I appear odd or ugly, I apologize in advance. My brain is trying.

Good morning! It’s #bookshopday today, a chance to support your #localbookshop wherever you are.

We are closed this week but you can support us by liking posts, signing up to our newsletter and buying books online through @bookshop_org_uk or audiobooks through @librofm - or leaving a review on Tripadvisor or Google.
Please pop into your nearest bookshop wherever you are today and help support local businesses, not billionaires. X

I’m trying really hard to be a glass-is-half-full kind of person, but the glass is half-full of shit.

Your occasional reminder that Jeff Bridges has been hand-drawing his web site for decades https://www.jeffbridges.com

I used to wonder how IBM could possibly consent to create a system to help Hitler organize his concentration camps.

Then I look around at all the tech companies aligning with fascism today.

Just noticed it’s gone past 50 million reloads, well done everyone, a v productive use of our time & resources! https://vole.wtf/reload-clicker/

Had a wee wander in the garden to see what fungi delights were hidden away. Not a great photo (need to go out when it's dryer & better light) but this one made me grin.

This will crash the global economy

Tis the season of these wee beauties flying around and bossing everyone about... #robin

Dear Labour Party - you don't neutralise the threat from Reform by adopting their policies or talking points. You do it by reducing inequality. Fascism doesn't flourish if people feel they're fairly recompensed, equally treated, well-fed and well-housed and their jobs are safe. So be more Labour.

X is where you find the people who think they run the Internet.

Bluesky is where you find the people who think they ought to run the Internet.

Mastodon is where you find the people who actually do run the Internet, and kind of wish they didn't.

(WIth apologies to Yes, Minister)

The latest wave of AI scrapers to hit us are running javascript... and all match
(window.innerWidth===800 && window.innerHeight===600)
I wonder how much memory and CPU they will burn before stopping...

#AI #demiseOfTheMachines

Shitty bots swamping my site again today. Have had to take part of it offline to cut them off. How the fuck is this legal? Copyright aside it's destructive.

Fucking fuckers.

Last boost from my lovely techy about their latest behaviour, in case it's useful to anyone else.

Edit: Last boost here, as probably easier to find with a link
