on some otherwise inconsequential day a decade and a half ago, i idly put my first mobile phone into one of my two trouser pockets, and that choice unknowingly informed actions that i would perform dozens of times every day for the rest of my life

Much love to all of my trans, nonbinary and gender-nonconforming friends and acquaintances on the transgender day of remembrance. 🏳️‍⚧️ Trans rights are human rights. Here's to a brighter and less bigoted future.

just got a VISIT AMERICA ad lol. used to get ads for states or hell, individual cities. now it's just "please come spend some money here, anywhere, please for the love of god we're fucking cooked"

it is actually amazing how much better your mental health becomes if you take a break from social media

remember when cuomo lost that election twice? lol. lmao, even.

rip 😔

Okay, so the hollow is in the 'sliding down ladder' animation, and this spot is directly below the ladder up to where the firebomb hollows are. I think that the enemy may have hit the 60fps sliding down ladder bug and gotten stuck in the animation, phasing through all of the collision.

Really enjoying Strange Horticulture by @badvikinggames.bsky.social, and will probably go straight onto the sequel when I finish. I love cataloguing stuff - which the game makes so satisfying - and discovering secrets, which are in constant supply. Also love that it's set in a fantasy Lancashire lol

i just flew in for día de los muertos and boy are my arms dead

when non-americans say that trunk or treating and tailgate parties are weird and discomforting, it’s not that we can’t understand that they’re fun. it’s because you’ve seemingly destroyed all other social spaces, and now routinely gathering in parking lots surrounded by cars is bizarrely normalised

the only reason why i believe that kier starmer, the current leader of the labour party and prime minister of the uk and ireland, is not a paedophile? it's because he's never fucked. he is a fuckless individual. that man has never fucked.

bounding towards you on all fours, wearing grinch crocs on both of their feet and both of their hands, is someone wearing an incredibly realistic grinch costume. or, hell... #naddpod

we are all pronglers on this blessed day

going directly from "there are no adults in the room" to "everybody is 12" with no steps in between

Apart from the far, far greater number of people online now compared to “the old internet”, one thing that we used to be able to do a lot better was moderation. Forums had smaller scope, and better ability to deal with agitators, crazies and bad actors. Shit got shut down a lot more effectively.

it's too late, i've already depicted myself as a cool-ass dinosaur, and you as a terrified pissbaby

i'm the kind of nerd to own the .com and .co.uk domains for their own name but even for me it feels really lame to have either of them as my bluesky name

i may be a fussy bitch, but i like my political candidates to exhibit the kind of long-term thinking that doesn't result in them getting nazi tattoos

i like it when big, sensible, adult political decisions result in billions of suddenly available great british pounds going towards absolutely necessary bombs and missiles. i do not like engaging in any discussions about spending more on the nhs or transport because where would the money come from

Feels like, I dunno, maybe it might be a good plan if we associated this obviously bad and increasingly unpopular idea with the politician whose entire career has been telling us it would be a good idea

instead of having to work or do literally anything, ICE could send a handful of AI generated videos of them beating up civilians to trump - the same exact videos, everyday - and they’d get paid because he’s fucking stupid and wouldn’t know the difference. but they don’t, because they’re fascists.

Learned that an anonymous outside expert on submersibles did an interview with the OceanGate Titan investigation, and they released a transcript, with all the names redacted. The first line of his first answer? "I'm sure you're familiar with my film Titanic."

lol bluesky blocklists are great, love the fact that i was blocking the official whitehouse account before i knew it existed

big tech and ai harvesting all of my personal info is bad, yes. targeted advertising is bad, yes. the thing is, they're just so fucking bad at it. i have money and like things. make me more aware of music or films or games i haven't heard of and might like and i'll probably spend some money.

lol at xbox wanting verification that i'm over 18 years old. bitch, the account you're asking about is over 18 years old

like we joke about it, but it's really clear that these people aren't even actually capitalists, they're literally just fucking idiots who don't have the ability to do any kind of long-term thinking

i like trains

Dark Souls 2 Firelink Edition is finally out! This is a new DS2 experience with new visuals, items, weapons, armor, enemy and item location and many more changes. Tell your friends and family. I hope you all enjoy it.

i just flew back from the beach that makes you old, and boy are my arms old

@kingborehaha.bsky.social congratulations on the dark souls

watched @hankgreen.bsky.social's video about caffeine

It’s difficult to understate the role that creeping, insidious, algorithmically-driven isolation has played in harming society - and without spaces to simply exist alongside other people, it’s only going to get worse

one of the simple joys in life is discovering a song that you absolutely love, and then doing a dive into the band’s discography and finding out it isn’t even your favourite song of theirs

haven’t been doing internet or news all day and just worked on my little project, it’s been fuckin great

every government: as you know, improving your lives (your lives, not ours) is simply impossible. anyway, here’s fascism

it's not FOR us

the existence of even one ex wife dismantles the central lie of marriage, that it is an innate characteristic of no carol i won't stop embarrassing myself why won't you let me see my kids

remembered about that interview on the preorder cd for dark souls

October 15th sounds like a good date...

Kat Abughazaleh: I think Kristi Noem should have consequences. I think she should be tried at The Hague... It is not normal to have masked men repel down from helicopters into apartment buildings, to arrest families in the middle of the night.

fuck you if you think we will reach a better future without trans people standing beside us

trans rights

I am posting two characters I like and tagging 5 others to do the same if they want The theme for mine is Discovery, but potential spoilers if you read the alt text @skelemann.bsky.social @taskbari.gay @jordanhass.com @jesterpatches.bsky.social @solibrae.bsky.social

people who disagree with me are wrong and should be banned, actually

post like a dipshit, pay the $10 dipshit tax. that’s how real forums work

news item 1: starmer says that in the name of safety and peace, they are stepping up police presence on the streets news item 2: investigation into the met police says they're institutionally racist and sexist fucking clown country

hell yeah
