Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

Fantastic thread breaking down all the bits and pieces of Bad Bunny's halftime show.

Putting on a banger half time show and making it all about love over hate? Fantastic. Bad Bunny is great.

vancouver.citynews.ca/2026/02/07/o... Wild how we're loaning a public service money instead of replacing the leadership responsible for multiple strikes. And why are we loaning it anyway? We don't loan Manitoba funding for hospitals or demand the navy give IOUs for new subs.

GM: Charisma check. Mamdani: [rolls natural 20] GM: that’s a d6 how did you Mamdani: [direct to camera] Did you know you can check out board games at your local public library? 😊

If you are a game developer working on a modern military shooter and want to speak to me about Call of Duty being mentioned during this most recent ICE shooting, please reach out at gita at aftermath dot site. I am happy to keep you anonymous.

thanks to @ricklane.bsky.social for talking to me and other modders. sorry not-sorry for the ludicrous headline quote btw credit to @asponge.bsky.social who coined “concrete murderzones” years ago to describe QBJ1 and it stuck in my head all these years

the woke mob is giving He-man pronouns

Gene is a wonderful person who has absolutely fucking walloped cancer in the past. He’ll do it again.

This place never truly felt like Twitter until I read a live bus kidnapping thread

Rough vibes on this website today, likely because people feel Hopeless and Helpless Because Can't Stop It and No One Who Is Supposed To Is Trying To So Now We're Fighting Each Other™. I recommend activities such as book, or potentially instrument if you like instrument, or even do talk on phone.
