I also want to say thank you to the person who introduced me to the French word 'beaucoup' this year. It means a lot.

If I can go this long (month+) without my beloved mocha frappuccino, you can join me in not crossing a picket line

Gentle reminder that we're more than half-way through the month, so be sure to schedule some time to listen to Counting Crows' LONG DECEMBER and feel wistful before it's too late.

That used to be a jail??? Wait... Buzzy's is gone??? I've been gone from Boston a long time.

🦦🌊 #telekitneticart #formline #indigenousart Another otter formline commission for loial otter via TG!! :>

We've had these two little posters hanging on our wall for basically ever. They helped our kids get through middle school and high school and I personally still take a second to read them often. Printable PDF here: lumpley.games/wp-content/u...

this is a reminder that we dont have to settle for newsom in 2028

♥️🍎

HEY SEATTLE we have till 8 to vote for katie wilson don't let me down bros. don't fucking embarrass me okay

It’s cool that Chuck Schumer, Kiersten Gillibrand, and Hakeem Jeffries just proved to every future dem that establishment approval is irrelevant tbh

If you don't remember the Bush / Cheney years, don't think of him as Bush's JD Vance. He was Bush's Stephen Miller.

I think about this a lot.

I've been thinking about Matt Furie a lot during this period of political frog realignment, so I made this comic dedicated to him.

i’m just so mad because if we absolutely had to elect an unqualified media personality to be president we should have gone with either of the guys from CAR TALK

cloistered garden (2021)

Last year I reimagined the work of 30+ artists to feature Moe Syzslak. Recreating famous painting was a fun challenge! I’m gonna share some of my favourites the rest of this month. Here’s Claude Moe-net.

Inconsistently reproducible memory corruption

Heavens to Betsy Betsy to Heavens Heavens BACK to Betsy Betsy GOOOOOAAAALLLLLLLL

Station music: Ashess - alone in the depths of the sea

more evidence for the theory of "COVID broke the brains of the powerful because the only social contact they had for months was people online yelling at them"

KIM KITSURAGI - “You need to get your shit together.” YOU - “But I don't wanna get my shit together!” KIM KITSURAGI - “Then the world will turn away from you, and leave you behind.”

Cranking up the Metric lyrics: 🎵Buy this car to drive to work. Drive to work to pay for this car!🎵

From bravewave.net/interviews/t...

sometimes the extremely popular and oversaturated thing is that way because it really is that good. such as it is with the MM2 wily stage 1 theme

The real generational divide is people who refuse to watch a video if it could be an article versus people who refuse to read an article if it could be a video

New management sim just dropped

Every day, I do things. And yet, without fail, the following day, I am expected to do additional things. This is some bullshit

i’m so old, i remember when going on the internet made you smarter

The human brain was optimized for: • Gossip in tribes of 150 • Tracking berries vs. poison berries • Running from tigers Now we use it to argue online with strangers about macroeconomic policy. Evolution’s patch notes are a mess.

I've worked 4 days in an office this week and it feels like it was 4 weeks. I don't know how anyone goes into an office 5 days a week. I don't know how I used to.

JOYCE MESSIER - “Of bodies of water and forest-covered surfaces, clusters of light where the cities lie. You've seen the montage, we all have -- this world is enough,” she concludes. CONCEPTUALIZATION - It *must* be. This is the greatest and kindest arrangement the atoms had in them.

rough day. not much I can do. so here's a frog.

Helpful #gamedev tip -- When saving your game, if you're overwriting a previous save DON'T open that file for write access. Depending on OS and your library and moon phases, this may set up for corruption if the program is interrupted. Instead, save a new file and rename it to overwrite.

I have taken the Tylenol that was in the medicine cabinet and which they think probably is the reason you like trains forgive me but that’s bullshit you got autism from your dad

It had been over 5 years since I spent a day working in an office, and I gotta say the newest LED lights are quite nice. Plus I kind of missed the hum and HVAC system. Tomorrow will be busier though so we'll see how that goes.

I don't think that the point being made is incorrect here, but also people are so bad at estimating statistics that if you showed them a board of 10 colored circles where 1 is blue and asked them what percentage is blue, they'd say 20-40%. That is the percent for "more than none but less than half"

I like my fridges dumb, young, and full of plums

hey so i never want to hear someone say “racism is dead,” again, k?

Just like Alexandra Erin's frequent point that if ANY person loses due process, YOU lose due process (bc without it you can't prove you're not Them) If trans people lose gender rights, everyone loses gender rights

I don't think pointing out the fascists' 'hypocrisy' is a good use of time. It's not hypocrisy, it's hierarchy. They actually do believe that they have the right and obligation to dominate you because they are superior to you. They are using their power not being hypocritical.

I love the people I follow who have a rotating cast of ridiculous usernames. It makes the doom scrolling give me a smile when I look at who retweeted an anger inducing political post and have to think, "who the hell is Big Sexy Hamburger?"

One less thing for me personally to worry about in this dumpster fire world: I landed a job and start next week. The job market is hell out there. Everyone still navigating it has my sympathies.

Happy 36th anniversary to Nine Inch Nails' first release (Halo 1), "Down In It"

The free speech activist who built a list of professors he worked to get fired for their speech must be celebrated for his support of free speech, and anyone who quotes his speech accurately in context will be fired and/or face state punishment by the champions of free speech, do I have that right?

I didn’t know people made memes this good any more. I didn’t know this was allowed.
