Cops are so consistently the dumbest mother fuckers I meet (I see them somewhat often because work reasons) You’d think just like, statistically, there’s enough of them that there’s gotta be a couple smart ones. But apparently not!

Does anybody actually get the coleslaw at Raising Cane’s or does everyone replace it with an extra toast?

it would be sooooo funny if the portland fire only lasted two seasons again

Kars4Kids scandal shockingly not an Epstein thing

That every other person is saddled with as much sopping wet interiority as you are is actually one of the more overwhelming and terrifying of the conceivable metaphysics, and goes a long way to explain why there's such a rich ecology of toy solipsisms to retreat into

ok we drawing, here's an elf girl sketch

Every day I contemplate the fact that we still don't know what causes left-handedness. Ages ago we as a society decided it was totally normal and stopped punishing and ostracizing kids for it. Today the thought of being anti-left-handedness is bonkers to us. This is a post about trans kids.

who wants to be on my podcast

Video podcasts??? What’s next, audio photographs???

The new BBEdit update looks great. I use emacs for basically all my text editing at this point but I have such a fondness for BBEdit that I think I’m gonna buy the update anyway

thanks for the advice kamen rider

SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL IS GOING TO HAPPEN

My state requires ID verification if more than a third of a website’s content is explicit, but it never specifies how that’s counted as far as I know? If I have a thousand pages of plain text and one page that has a 4K porn video that’s as big as all the text files combined, am I in violation?

Just heard about Quinta Brunson playing/writing a Betty Boop movie and honestly I’m very excited. I’m not usually one for reviving old IP but I love Betty Boop and Quinta is fucking hilarious, I think it could be good

idk just take it

I spilled my Baja Blast :(

Embarrassing that a bunch of people are seeing a post where I said evangelical when I meant puritanical. I know evangelicals are also puritanical, but there’s enough of a linguistic and theological difference that it does in fact matter to me lol

i will forever hate video

anyway psa: trans your gender and have weird sex. it’s good for you.

I lost a bunch of data and had to reinstall my OS last week because I forgot to back stuff up 🙃 do your backups!

He didn’t do it he was with me that day and we were in a different place

Been using the Xteink X4 for about a week and it’s so good, it’s definitely going to be a daily carry from now on. My only real complaint is that you can’t highlight stuff.

bought some stuff at a vintage store and scanned it

ahhhh why is stitching scanned images together so hard

One of the weird things about having at one time been a candidate for ministry (it’s a long story) is that I know that basically no one talking about Calvinism, whether for or against, has actually read Calvin.

Ann Stephens, 1977 Topps Charlie's Angels style.

The search engine options right now are basically: 1. Useless spying adware getting worse by an actively evil company 2. Adware that works maybe 60% of the time, but seems to do an ok job privacy-wise? 3. Good, ad-free search with an overpriced subscription by a company whose CEO is an asshole

I’m so tired of being enraged. Rage can be righteous and powerful, but it burns incredibly dirty, and it doesn’t last long enough. I don’t think rage can be the fuel to build the better world we need. And yet I find it so, so hard not to be constantly enraged at the world.

I’ve never done it and I’m too afraid of heights to try but I just know in my heart of hearts that I’d be an incredible Olympic diver

@rubymayvalentine.net I really like this lil guy is it okay that he’s the screensaver on me little ereader thing

Alyssa Thomas, Kahleah Copper and Jovana Nogic have been on a tear for the Phoenix Mercury ⚡️ As a group they're averaging 50+ PTS in the last 4 games! Don't miss them in action as they face the Toronto Tempo at 10pm/ET on League Pass.

Anyone on a Mastodon instance they like and I could join? I’d like to have a better option in case this place goes south but I’ve never really loved any instance I’ve tried. A place with cool trans people, that allows tagged NSFW, & is reasonably unlikely to shut down suddenly are the main criteria

heard about a young farmer who learned Javascript. yeah, she joined the forEach() club

Excited to find out if this is actually on League Pass or if it’s blocked because I live in Phoenix

tried using OCR to get an old photoscan PDF into real text, and it turns out it's just easier for me to retype it. The OCR tool I'm using (TextSniper) is p good, but by the time I've read everything twice to make sure the text is ok and fixed the quotes and apostrophes, I could've just typed it out.

How do I make a *good* epub? Everything I’m finding online is saying to just use Vellum but I’m not spending $200 on this. It’s just XML inside right? There has to be a better way to do this

I like this VN a lot! I played it last year and I still think about it often. It was just so charming, and I really loved the characters, especially Olive

telling all my friends to make websites and helping them do it is so fun

me when i log on to the computer

The only internet celebrity I respect is the Rizzler

Only furries are brave enough to ask important questions like “what if birds had massive tits?”

Sometimes I think about getting a second monitor, but then I realize how much mismatched color would annoy the hell out of me and decide not to do it

I had a beautiful weekend full of print media, grassroots DIY organizing, the beautiful city of Detroit, the beautiful people of Detroit (cannot get over how sweet y'all are), connections, sex, art, and beauty. Get out there, trans folks. I took a chance on a train ride to Chicago in 2023.

I know I beat this drum a lot. It's kind of the one true thing about me that I've always known even when on autopilot living the wrong life in the worst town. If you even kinda think you have it in you, Make Something. Anything. Create. It makes existing worth it.
