Paul Flo WilliamsWhat is the point of this? <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/fugly" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fugly</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/pointless" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pointless</a>

Michael HorneI'm still on X. For my sins. I used to get so much engagement there. I now get so little. It's sad, really. Guess that's what happens when you sell a platform to an almighty tosser who doesn't care a jot.Think I might quit very soon. I tend to only use it to do <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/pointless" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pointless</a> interaction anyways.

Mark HCatching up with some TV quizzing and my admittedly limited knowledge of UK Top 40 hits by KC & The Sunshine Band was nevertheless good enough for three <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Pointless" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Pointless</a> answers today.

ჯąօʂƓҽìʂէ✫Kinder wollen auf Herdplatten greifen. Sie wissen was "warm" und "heiß" bedeutet. Sie wollen wissen, wie heiß die Platte sein kann. Das gilt natürlich nicht für alle Kinder. Manche greifen auch rauf, weil da oben was steht das sie haben wollen. Und viele haben grad überhaupt keinen Gefahreninstinkt. Aber ich war so ein Kind, das es wissen wollte. Heute will ich wissen, wie sich die Oberfläche der Sonne anfühlt, wenn mir die Hitze nichts ausmachen würde. Oder, wie stark der Wind und der Druck einer Atombombe ist, wenn er mich nur nicht zerfetzen würde. Oder, wie groß das Universum ist, wenn ich nur so alt werden könnte, und das noch dazu, ohne dabei meinen Verstand zu verlieren.<a href="https://wien.rocks/tags/Pointless" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Pointless</a>

Mark HCatching up with today's <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Pointless" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Pointless</a> and if there's ever a question to which the answer is either the Shirelles, the Shangri-Las, the Ronettes, the Chiffons, the Crystals, or the Velvelettes then we will definitely get it right at the sixth guess.<a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Music</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Quiz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Quiz</a>

CBinNYC<a href="https://hachyderm.io/@liztai" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@liztai</a> I believe you. I’m just laughing that the US bans one app from China that is replaced by *another* app from China. 🤦‍♂️ Seems pretty <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/pointless" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pointless</a> right?

Mark HI don't think we pay enough attention to politics in the rest of the commonwealth here in the UK, but on today's <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Pointless" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Pointless</a> that we've just caught up with we managed to get two pointless answers for the final round of Aussie Prime Ministers with A, U, or S in their surnames. So yay us!

100% TAX ✅ ✅Why isn't the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bluesky" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bluesky</a> bridge such a bad idea?You would ask, wouldn't you?Well, the answer to that lies simply in well...threads is partly federated, which means some accounts there are partly federated and most of them are inaccessible unless each user gets at least 1k followers. Getting 1k followers for your average <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Jane" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Jane</a> and <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Joe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Joe</a> is mostly impossible unless they adopt the philosophy of <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/f4f" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#f4f</a> which is <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/pointless" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pointless</a> mostly.That's not good enough for the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fediverse</a>. Thus the bridge assists us!

Mark HNow catching up with today's <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Pointless" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Pointless</a> and there's a category of Famous Virgos that doesn't include me. I shall complain to the BBC about this snub tomorrow.

Stephen CookPerhaps blocking doesn't work in the way that some trolls think it does.Case in point:User s...n posted a provocation, threatened to block anyone who disagreed, and did so. (I'm perplexed as to what this achieves, but never mind.)So I'm now blocked by s...n. Thank you! But only on Mastodon. s...n announces his other fediverse accounts on his Mastodon profile (which I can still see, but not the posts). Mastodon block doesn't seem to propagate to those accounts.<a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/trolls" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#trolls</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/blocking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#blocking</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/pointless" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pointless</a>

Kevin RussellJust want to help understanding of Republican dysfunction, general george cluster dysfunctional, is that the mindclot caucus threw out their "Speaker" for allowing a vote on Ukraine aid before renaming airports after Emperor Palmateen.The guy they replaced Macandcheese with just allowed a Ukraine vote, making the last two years of chaos pointless.<a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/pointless" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pointless</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/vacant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vacant</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/stare" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#stare</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/VacateTheMind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#VacateTheMind</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/maga" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#maga</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/potus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#potus</a> Let me add, in contrast, Biden said two weeks ago that the GOP Speaker would be doing this.

Inside the Red Head's HeadIt’s coming to the end of the work day. 25 minutes left before I can punch out for the day. It’s feeling like a long week, though it’s been mostly quiet. It’s weird. It’s cold and rainy here today. I was hoping to be able to open the windows again, but no dice. The cats are clearly disappointed. The forecast for tomorrow is pretty crappy as well. Oh well.There is a little bug in the office with me right now. Robin Sparkles the Cat is hunting it. It’s a little fascinating. I think the bug is just screwing with her. Could be.If you haven’t guessed, I have nothing interesting to write about in this post. I just feel compelled to post something. Funny how that happens sometimes, right? No? Just me? Crud.I want to go on a trip or something. Even if it’s just a day trip somewhere. New York is calling me in a big way. I think… maybe. It might actually be my cameras that are calling me while pretending that they are New York. They are manipulative little bastards sometimes.I’m streaming the Apple Podcast app from my MacBook Pro to a HomePod on my desk and it just stopped playing. What’s up with that? There was only 30 seconds left in the episode I was listening to. I skipped to the next entry in the queue and it’s fine now. Weird.I have a toothache. Tylenol is handling it, but I have a toothache.Crud.Okay. Clicking publish now. Future generations will look at this post and marvel at the pointlessness of it all. I think they’ll marvel at the pointlessness of the entire blog, but what can you do, right?Publish.<a href="https://robertjames1971.blog/2024/04/18/end-of-the-work-day/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://robertjames1971.blog/2024/04/18/end-of-the-work-day/</a><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/apple/" target="_blank">#Apple</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/blogging/" target="_blank">#blogging</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/pointless/" target="_blank">#pointless</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/pointless-blog/" target="_blank">#pointlessBlog</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://robertjames1971.blog/tag/work/" target="_blank">#work</a>
