speaking as a metalhead: the guy who hasn't removed his nazi tattoo is not a guy you want to be around. I don't care what he says about how he got it. if he didn't get it covered or lasered, you cannot trust him.

I will repost this forever.

I saw something that said “being annoyed is the price of community” and that really hit it on the head. Being part of society means being inconvenienced, uncomfortable, and frustrated sometimes, but other people do that too to make life together easier for all of us. That’s how it works!

You work here long enough you move past the fear that comes from understanding the frailty of human life and replace it with taking joy in the small things that make life worth living.

There are many people whose lives are so much better for having you in it. Remember that. You are important, and you are loved.

me on friday evening, saturday, and sunday: this thing that came up sounds like something for monday chris to deal with! me on sunday night: oh no

One of my least rational beliefs is that if you pull off a heist without hurting anyone or getting caught within a day, that's your stuff fair and square.

Each time a tech platform makes a change to a UI element they should pay a small fee and it doubles every time.

Pro tip for indie unity devs: take three seconds to swap the default UI font with something nicer. Not bothering makes your game feel 1000% more amateurish

Demon Slayer has a lot going on for it but its female deuteragonist being a young girl who is unable to speak and simultaneously has the power to transform into a toddler or a busty lady, and spends most of the time conveniently stuffed in a box... Idk that doesn't take a lot to feel weird about.

Idk if your first impulse when you see something you dont like is to call them fat or gay as a dunk maybe youre not the open minded ally you think you are lmfao

I cannot stress enough how important it is to do silly, frivolous things that serve no other purpose than making you happy.

We really, REALLY need to be talking about this as an industry. This is not normal. This is not sustainable. There is so much talent out there underemployed and barely hanging on and just as much talent already in serious financial trouble. I don't know how you fix it, but we HAVE to fix it.

Another one: Consuming a piece of media that you're protesting in any form, even through piracy, is likely to make you participate in that media's fan community - and thus provide advertising and legitimacy for it. Don't consume it at all, even for free. Just avoid it - support alternatives instead

Is there anyone who actually thinks “Yeah, I would love to get desktop notifications from this website, now that I have visited it for 30 seconds!” Or am I just an outlier when I don’t?

I actually can't quite put into words how much contempt I have for crap like this--which is itself deeply contemptuous of students, teachers, and education as a whole. What garbage.

When I hear them whining about how ICE are intimidated by/can't possibly do their job with protesters nearby, I think about how many young women have had to pass protestors for years and years just to get their reproductive health.

Bringing this back again. I know some of you will come home saying "see nothing bad happened" not knowing that some bad things actually DID happen. Please listen to experienced activists and organizers. They've been doing this longer than you have. Police are not your friends and not on your side.

This is too real

Today is #nationalhagfishday I hope you have a good day and if not I hope you escape the day via copious amounts of slime www.nationaldaycalendar.com/national-day...

Let's not pretend that the first people to lecherously rub their hands together when genAI arrived were overworked creatives or white-collar workers in desperate need of e-mail summaries. It was businessmen not wanting to pay workers, followed by guys who take pictures of kids in playgrounds

I'm not trying to be a dick. But they picked two fat republicans for a bunch of jokes when the young republicans said the worst shit imaginable. My fat ass is out there fighting for what's right. Stop equating fat with bad or less. Stop telling ME I'm one annoyance away from being your target.

this is a mantra i have adopted and i understand might never be delivered, i do not care. i believe we will break these people and i believe we do that through solidarity. there are far more of us than them.

Now, more than ever, you have to be a weird little pervert who makes art of questionable quality. You need to be driven crazy by the flesh. Because, as we all learned from Cronenberg's The Fly, the computers are not made crazy by the flesh. They can't do it like us.

I'm so tired of only ever seeing art of plus sized fem bodies drawn with massive balloon anime tits and no other breast sizes/shapes, there's plus sized ppl with small tiddies too y'all. :v draw more varieties of body type you fuckin' cowards. 🔪🔪🔪

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

Honestly, it needs to go further than this. We need to confront the fact that democracy and wealth hoarding cannot coexist. Allowing people to amass the resources of a small state/country allows them to act as such, which is inimical to a shared society of “one person, one vote.”

Great thread on the distinctive political culture of Portland, by a US historian who is very much from Portland.

There are some days where art feels so effortless and it’s a joy and then I can go weeks with art being a real slog. I complain about this all the time.

John Carpenter made some of the greatest movies of all time and then retired to make music with his son and play video games. It’s possible he has lived the greatest life in human history.

So the trick to being a Linux person is wanting a computer to satisfy the same niche in your life that other people fill with lovably neurotic pets.

When you’re trying to find a partner, you might be tempted to become malleable and open to accommodating people who might fit. When you date somebody actually good for you, you should come away from that with a firmness that the way *you* are is already good and you can find someone who likes that

sanda science saru makes the kind of fever dream anime that in my youth I had assumed all anime was. Am I in this for the long haul? IDK, but I highly recommend the experience of walking in blind to episode 1. holy shoot.

My life, by Matt Tarpley

People just don't realize how many layers of "irony" and cloaking are used to launder white supremacist propaganda into greater public acceptance and just *how many* things, about US culture in general and internet culture in particular, have white supremacy at the core of their rotten heart!

Lol. Lmao, even.

I'm thinking more about this and I think industrial music keeps re-evolving from first principles because the conditions that produced it are everywhere

Imagine how boring it would be if there was only one way to be human

It’s weevil Wednesday yall

You can simultaneously recognize that (a) sacrifices must be made in order to obtain power in the American system, and (b) because of (a), candidates, even the ones we vote for, are not heroes, cannot be absolutely trusted, and are never entitled to uncritical support.

lmao, kristi noem wanted a black bloc fight and got an inflatable rave instead. fuck you DHS, rip city forever.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.
