Which social media platform do you see the most toxic feedback on your posts or replies?
YouTube is shocking for me. If I post even a relatively benign comment I seem to risk a disheartening response. That’s why BlueSky gets almost all my attention nowadays. It feels a little more open minded. 🤷♂️

I know a great place to do some more rigorous testing. I’m sure they’ll happily pay the power bill…

I keep whinging about the heat but it’s still spring and it’s nasty outside. Hot strong NW gave us 37° & it only got down to 20° last night. If we weren’t on the coast it’d be much worse. Of course tomorrow we’re getting one day of torrential downpour & flash flooding. Welcome to QLD Australia!

When you wake up in the morning to a body gently cuddling in to your back and then a limb softly drapes over your arm and… you roll over 🤨🤣

But it’s likely the most typical source of mispronunciation… so not at all surprising really. Thought hard for a non-locale word & found one. Even IF they get it first time you notice the pause as the brain analyses it.

This effect startled me initially, thinking it was a glitch. All I get now when I see it is a feeling of repulsion or being shunned from entering data. It’s not inviting me to engage with that edit box. At the very least one needs to feel one is being sucked in rather than pushed back 🤷♂️

Getting warm now down here. Wildlife, always plentiful, is getting even more so. Lovely Australian White Ibis was walking around the backyard until one of our dogs came & chased it! Got an awesome pic as it started to fly away. A cockatoo also came to check out a passionfruit. Checked me out first 🤣

Another local coming out to enjoy the warmer weather. These water dragons will sit on the footpath & generally ignore you. Our dogs are a few years old so don’t bat an eyelid when spotting one now. Often see them swimming along the waterways among the swans. Makes the dog walk seem more peaceful.☺️

Spring is upon us down under so I’m posting this photo from last night of one of the many new faunal visitors starting to appear.
My wife almost had a cardiac event & she told me to spray it but I said I’ll release it outside. It moved too fast so it’s hiding in my office now! 🤣
