I'm 'using punctuation in a filename feels wrong' years old.

I wish every cis person in this world could understand that it is genuinely safe and okay to experiment a little with queering your gender, even if the end result is "Yep, I'm still comfortable as what I already am." You've let yourself into the playground of identity liberation, and decided […]

Received this shiny thing in the mail yesterday. Thanks to @ursamajorawards.org and again to those that voted for my otter-themed coming out tale. Really an absolute treat of a surprise to be nominated along such talented writing creatures. #shiny #chirr

"A Swedish Library Forgot to Close Its Doors and Something Beautiful Happened." https://www.zmescience.com/science/news-science/public-library-restoring-trust-in-humanity-repubz/ I love this story -- about libraries and the people who use libraries. #libraries

Fàilte mac-màthar! Well I got a promotion at work! I'm the new Certified dietary manager for my hospital. I still need to take the certificate course but I expect to have it done quickly after it starts Im not waiting around! it was a very significant raise already with more after I finish :)

Jadzia: What did you do with the tyrannosaur that attacked Kasidy? Garak: It's in the transporter memory buffer. Jadzia: How? It was enormous! Garak: I compressed it in a .rawr file

I was watching this video by Hank Green talking about the Artemis II photos. I hadn't known that they caught an eclipse during their trip. What an amazing image! https://youtu.be/oaXRREHVkHo

On a brief rewatch of Steven Universe, I was reminded of how good the final song of the series was: https://youtu.be/hS-RLzAchLM

Why those gorgeous shots from Artemis are courtesy of a 10-year-old Nikon camera, rather than anything shipped since then: https://petapixel.com/2026/04/06/the-10-year-old-nikon-d5-dslr-really-is-the-best-camera-for-artemis-ii/ #photography #nikon

Alex Avila talks about transgender activism: https://youtu.be/6v54r-wB_rE Part of their longform video on patreon. This speaks to my own non-binary gender, but I wonder how it lands for people more closely associating with masculine or feminine gender identity.

Would a creature who was half human and half goat who wrote incisive stories pointing out society's inequities be considered a satyrist? #foliagehumor

I just caught this video talking about an assistive tech I had never heard (heh) of called 'induction loop' - but more importantly, it covers its successor Auracast! Really cool tech. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WmSM_yCyV3U

Some Max selfies for today

[uspol, white priveledge (as a person of white descent)] This is something that as a white gay enby I have to revisit with myself occasionally. I do have struggles that extend from my own marginalization, but the very fact that I was born to all appearances as a white male in a conventional […]

RE: https://social.coop/@cwebber/116217477822586442 The whole "AI" industry is just based on the hope that they can deskill people fast enough that they'll have to rent back cognitive support systems. Forever. It's like Uber. Just that they don't try to break existing transportation […]

[nudity, sex] I really love how this set came out. RE: https://4bear.com/users/ytetic/statuses/116210672737319499

Look at this super awesome Game Boy animation that @kitsunekit.bsky.social did for me. <3

Been a while so making some Finnish pancake (pannukakku) this morning, since my shift starts a bit later. I dig pouring the batter into the melted butter~

Post an old meme to confuse young people

My favourite piece of internet today is the theory that Jesus was actually a type of yeast. Turns water into wine Floats on water Makes bread for 5000 people Put in a cave for 3 days and lo - he has risen! Jesus was a sourdough starter. Also this would imply: We should be calling him 'Mother' […]

[Dystopian tech, us courts] The absolute worst part is there is genuinely no way to guarantee the jurors safety here. The only safe option would be to mistrial and run the case again with a strict no-tech in courtroom rule. I can only interpret this act as deliberately intending to harm the […]

Haven't posted a #dinner in a while but damn I just made lemon chicken with spätzle and I'm wishing i could have another portion (even though it was massive)

I've only had a chance to read three chapters of Nameless by @[email protected] and I'm already hooked. I think the lead characters are great, and I love the way she describes the impacts that the nanotech maguffin has on society.

Worf: Do you like my Klingon bird of prey tattoo? Julian: Where? I don't see it. Julian: I hate you.

Odo: You're like the ocean Quark Quark: Because I'm deep and unexplainable and my eyes are sky blue? Odo: No. Because you're salty and you terrorize people.

I've been trying to teach my kids that they should stop wearing and listening to the same things everyone else does at school. It's OK to get wild haircuts, piece their noses, go thrash around at electro-punk shows. After all... Children should be scene and not herd.

From silly to relatable.

Notepad++'s update mechanism was compromised from June to December 2025. They believe it was a state actor practicing selective targeting and not a no-hosts-refused malware gang situation. https://notepad-plus-plus.org/news/hijacked-incident-info-update/
