Merry Christmas to my cat, who found and broke into her treats while I am away and can’t do anything about it.

Otherkin would rather commit wire fraud than go to therapy

The Dunning-Kruger Effect and the Streisand Effect, when merged, become the Bari Weiss Effect

“See you in seven years. Eh, six. You know, let’s play it by ear.”

Bari Weiss’ two accomplishments so far are hosting an interview that she desperately wanted people to watch (but they didn’t) and trying to spike a news story that she desperately wanted nobody to watch (but they did)

i ordered from a local sandwich place that turns out to use doordash to deliver and i can't help but notice that they highlight "delivery arriving early" in bright green but when it rolls to late the text is "delivery time updated." hm. wonder why that is.

i've been slowly ramping back up into the skills necessary to maybe make and ship a video game. i am kinda excited about the possibility. godot is really fast and intuitive and i love working in it, and i have some friends who can do a lot of the art and stuff and a pretty solid idea.

i don't know why i find packt offering an AI assistant for their books called "book+" so funny. the reason i'm coming to you is i learn programming better from paper books. book+ would be even more physical and more easy to mark and flip through and made of even more paper. you have created book--.

Today I mostly went shopping in Nagoya, but I still found invertebrates.

[first day as a shepherd] boss: where are you going? me: [pointing] star boss: what? why me: [shrugging] baby

I like to imagine that there is a rivalry between two top ham-sniffers: one, a meticulous keeper of precise traditions, the other a brash bad-boy with a colossal nose.

This Garurumon is the most Twentiest ever. Twentiest gigs-

CBS paid the president of the United States millions in bribe money and now they censor news reports so it does not annoy him. I don’t know how much plainer we can put this.

You can fluster any of your ΘΔ friends RIGHT NOW by messaging them "I'm going to make you stop pretending you're a person permanently."

woof

little! guy! little! guy! little! guy! little! guy! little! guy! little! guy! little! guy! little! guy! little! guy! little! guy! little! guy! little! guy! little! guy! little! guy! little! guy! little! guy! little! guy! little! guy! little! guy! little! guy! little! guy! little............... guy!

the only thing i'm really taking from this whole experience was that even his wife didn't like him all that much

Well, now I have something new to shout when startled.

Your power bill has tripled and you can't afford new PC parts just to create this.

i have to admire the chutzpah of top golf charging you $6 for not having been to a top golf before

I like video games because they allow me to act out my wildest power fantasies

i don’t give a ton of credence to the whole intergenerational squabble however i do think this is the single most zoomer behavior on the planet

was going to go to a cat show today but i guess the cat show was a scam and the guy putting it on canceled it and took all the money which, if you ask me, doesn’t seem all that nice.

Be careful what you wish for #planeposting #planeyboys

Shirokuro, a Japanese restaurant in NYC's East Village, where the interior mimics a hand-drawn black-and-white sketchbook.

can’t get over this insanely cute art that @drevin.bsky.social made for me

""The Kennedy Center" -- John F. Kennedy" -- Donald Trump

i really hope they boarded up the room they did the focus group in with these folks inside

i have noticed i have this weird habit, only on bluesky, of thinking i typed an important word in a sentence and then realizing it's missing when i re-read it after posting i don't care, it's not like this matters, it's just weird how consistent it is and how it only happens here

100% of crunch originates from leadership setting deadlines or expectations that were unreasonable or impossible and then holding the people beneath them accountable for keeping their commitments. the only time it literally any sense if if it is you, personally, who made the commitment.

it's always so funny to me how much of a self-own apple's yearly game awards are, they're routinely giving "best mac game" to shit that's so old it's borderline free on other platforms.

Roly-poly-amorous, or, being very into isopods.

they are massively overplaying their hand here. the only thing meta has going for it is that everyone's there already and it's kinda low friction and easy to fall into. it is hard for me to imagine someone paying to access it. harder hill to climb than twitter, even, which is nuts.

spotify is heinous in lots of ways but stariting the "wrapped" trend is something i really hate them for. every fucking work tool, every app i use has some pop-up that keeps me from doing what i want that offers to recap all my toilet flushes this year or something in some half-assed way.

there are so many coffee shops this one should be easy

oh my god

watching the fandom react to pawbert is like watching a friend date a person who is uglier and meaner and dumber than they will ever accept and feeling confused as to what the fuck is going on

> have you had the barrel aged malort? > what kind of barrel, an oil drum? oscar the grouch’s house?

Things are going great over at X, The Everything App

Matching portraits for @fritter.bsky.social and @jackalteeth.bsky.social 🐶❤️🐶 #Commission #TraditionalArt #Portraits #Ink #Dogs

the kind of person everyone should strive to be

it appears i will not be flying tomorrow

assuming nothing explodes tomorrow i have just finished my final meeting until the second week of january, breathing a big sigh of relief
