@oatmeal 2025 standing on the porch with a chainsaw and a beer hat, waiting to burst in.

@oatmeal The first three days of the new year are Wednesday, Thursday and Friday: W-T-F. (not original)

@oatmeal Seeing this at 9:46 pm EST so can totally relate

@oatmeal@mastodon.social I see you live in Northern Europe too? 😅

@oatmeal it should say solar eclipse as a lunar eclipse is not at all rare. Lunar eclipses are visible to half of the planet all at once. Solar eclipses are very local.
I would share this if it would say solar.

@oatmeal Murphy's laws 😂

@oatmeal what is funny about seeing you pop up on the fedi is that I always make your avatar face 🤩

I can't really draw but please enjoy this candy headbanging skull

🤘 💀🍬

@oatmeal I tried to add an alternative text for the picture. 🙂

@oatmeal Me, every time I get sick. Makes me a terrible patient, too.

@oatmeal For women, it's the other way around, isn't it? 😉

@oatmeal ALL THE YES

@oatmeal It can only be understood by people over 40.

@oatmeal Stop watching me for inspiration.

@ohtheprofanity
I resemble this Toot...

@oatmeal I feel seen

@oatmeal Me, every morning.

@oatmeal It’s me. This is me.

@oatmeal relatable. Image description, title “how to sneeze like I do”, comic panels “sneeze once, sneeze twice, keep sneezing, this is your life now”

@oatmeal I feel like the cat version is the same. Less "eating batteries" and more "jumping places I can't get down from."

@oatmeal or finding ways to hurt/maim your owner... like going from a sitting position to 60mph in 0.5s almost ripping your owners shoulder out of the socket and/or pulling them face first into the ground and dragging them!

@oatmeal 100% my greyhound Gus. In his early years, Hubs and I resigned ourselves to coming home and finding him gone because he chewed through a cord or, I don’t know, ate glass or something. But he’s 9 and still alive, much to our amazement.

@oatmeal : TRUTH!!! (Not you, but me)

@oatmeal trying hard to be the guy on the top, but still a bottom.

@oatmeal Algorithm driven social media in a nutshell.

@oatmeal for exposure I hope. :P

@oatmeal I don't mind the repeats, I'm just happy to see your posts on mastodon!

@oatmeal Now you will be paid in exposurecoin. It's the same thing, but it's on a blockchain now.

I think the best way to handle blogs and followers is to have your blog support RSS and ActivityPub so people on the Fediverse can easily follow it. And non-fedi followers can comment by making an account on your blog that's secretly also a fediverse account.

The only downside is that now you're not just hosting a blog but also a fediverse server.

It would surprise me if the system for this didn't already exist.

@oatmeal a "old" one but now more actuel 👍

@oatmeal Good visual description of @pluralistic 's enshittification theory.

@oatmeal Springtime for Twitler

@oatmeal
Split your lungs with blood and thunder,
When you see the white whale !

@oatmeal welcome on the fediverse Matthew! It works a bit different then the birdsite here. Search works on #hashtags and posts spread by boosting. Make an #introductions post so people can find you and pin it to your profile so that new browsers can read it. And *nope* please don't explode the servers on #caturday :bongoCat:
