  • What is the feeling of having sudden pain in the head when woken by an alarm?

  • That is exactly what it's like for me. For me I find it worse with dissonant sounds. I can be in a loud city without problems because it's almost white noise I can tune out. But if it's annoying sounds or a lot of different sounds it's like a stimulus overload and my brain shuts down and I get irrational and angry.

    I finally started recognizing it's something I do, so I can at least alert someone I'm with that I'm overloaded so give me a moment (preferably away from the stimulus) and I'll be useless until it passes.

  • Trump accepts key endorsement from police union while celebrating sentencing delay on felony charges

  • The Fraternal Order of Police convention in the battleground state of North Carolina was billed as a way for Trump to pitch himself as a law-and-order figure and cast his Democratic opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, a former prosecutor and California attorney general, as weak.

    It's amazing to me that we live in reality where a certain population believes that a convicted felon would be seen as a "law and order" president, but the prosecutor and AG would not.

  • Firefish is entering maintenance mode

  • Ugh, of course there is.

  • Firefish is entering maintenance mode

  • Popular take, but I also thought it was dead. I was on Firefish and noticed it was seriously degraded in day to day use. I started with Mastodon, but the *isskey platforms just have a better ux/ui (IMO) and I really didn't want to go back to Mastodon. So now I'm on Sharkey, and hoping this one sticks around!
