Today #Google "celebrates" #BubbleTea (aka #boba) with an interactive #GoogleDoodle about the drink.

I'm guessing it sidesteps the fact that the name "boba tea" (and thus the bowdlerization "bubble tea") comes from the large breasts of the anime characters that boba joints would put on the cups' plastic covers, which drove the drink's popularity in its native Taiwan.

Today's NYT podcast The Daily slams "nonprofit" hospital systems for price gouging and elitism, including #Sounders new jersey sponsor #Providence. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/01/25/podcasts/the-daily/nonprofit-hospitals-investigation.html

Anyone know if there's a simple way to entirely quit slack on android?

I know I can sign out per workspace, the problem is my company has about a dozen workspaces and I'm in 5 of them.

I want to just... quit from the app :P

Hmm. Let's say you run your own solo #mastodon #instance. Your #federated #feed will be limited to the instances of people you #follow.

But what if you made a dummy unused account on your instance that simply followed a person from every notable instance?

As I understand it, that should greatly broaden the net for your federated feed.

#Seattle indie paper #TheStranger references the #SoundersFC - #Providence disapproval in today's Slog. https://www.thestranger.com/slog-am/2023/01/23/78826883/slog-am-measles-case-confirmed-here-come-the-chatbots-and-you-know-what-this-bike-path-needs-more-gravel

In other news: #SoundersFC #AllianceCouncil (fan advisory group) has joined #ECS in opposing the #Sounders - #Providence sponsorship over issues with Providence's anti-#choice, anti-#trans, and anti-poor practices, calling it a "seemingly profound disconnect with the club’s organizational values." #seattle https://soundersalliance.files.wordpress.com/2023/01/alliance-council-statement-01.23.2023-2.pdf "

Since I seem to be on a bitching-about-stuff kick, the new names for the Seattle Link lines are dumb. The 1 line and the 2 line? Those names don't mean anything. "Central Link" and "East Link" mean something clear.
