what i mean though is i don't actually like social media that much for having actual conversations, and for status updates you can get away with something much simpler

honestly for what i use social media for it could probably be handled with some shell scripts and a public atom feed

« “Clothing doesn’t make me a better warrior,” Link said » you tell 'em champ

why can’t music apps just let me copy the name of a fucking artist or song

@aescling cat you should actually watch it sometime

« Democratic voters have no shortage of motivation to turn out: Many feel as though their basic rights are being threatened, something a party’s voters ordinarily aren’t concerned about when it controls both the presidency and Congress. » hm

i've seen two links in the past week and one from a somewhat reputable source

why do people link to deseret news

actually THE MITCHELLS VS. THE MACHINES already said everything we need to know

news apps: just let me tell you what things i'm interested in

@Canageek@cybre.space there is also shapecatcher.com/ if you prefer drawing, but there are so many unicode lookalikes that it can be difficult (for example i got "circled crossing lanes" and "circle with superimposed x", which are not the correct characters in this case)

if all else fails you can try just browsing the mathematical symbols and operators block but i find a text search with a good guess works ~85% of the time

@Canageek@cybre.space for future reference, i typically use r12a.github.io/uniview/ to get the unicode character corresponding to a given symbol (type a guess for a word which might be in the name, like "times", into the search box and click "text")

if you know the LaTeX there are probably sites which have those mappings as well, although i'm not so familiar with them

once you have the character in unicode, pasting it into wiktionary or wikipedia can be a great resource

« It is not that queer people create culture and normative people get to consume it. We are trying to meet our needs »

@Canageek@cybre.space wiktionary has more options if that's not right: en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E2%8A%
