Note that property investors get grandfathered changes, but NDIS participants do not. So our Government is effectively saying property investors deserve the dignity of maintaining their current comfort levels, but people with disabilities do not.

hysteresis, I barely know sis

So I was bedridden for 16 months, and I've been focusing on getting employed since then. I'm making progress but I'm still up to my ears in debt from being sick for so long, and I'm out of food & rent money. If you've got a couple dollars, it'd really help. Thanks so much! ko-fi.com/fooneturing

yeah linux is much more approachable than it used to be. one trick i learned in the past is to post something like "linux sucks cuz it can't to [thing you want to do]" and some nerd will fix it for you

Owning physical media does make me cool as fuck, actually. "Hey babe, I got that new album you like on Spotify. Come over and listen?" Rizzless. She has internet. No bitches "Hey babe, I got that new album you like on vinyl. Come over and listen?" Novelty. This hooks em. Drowning in pussy

She looks like a Raid Boss from the Garden of Salvation!

Two things can be true. However, it is impossible for three things to be true. The trick in life is to figure out which exactly two statements are the true ones and stick to those

"i can't believe her name is katie tightpussy that is so immature and unserious" Do you think this is my government name. Do you think i write "Katie Tightpussy" at the DMV. Did a horse kick you in the head.

Angsty pretentious teenage me writing a dream journal near christmas 1987 shows up as 95-100% AI generated, by detectors offering to sell me services to re-generate my text with AI more humanised so it passes as not AI. It hurts to think about — even more than reading 16 year old me.

the final insult of AI is going to be forcing us all to become linux guys. we're all going to be like oh yeah downloading stuff on linux is super easy you just juice the tarball and compile the pulp in the sudo command line. not like windows where you have to click on things

I remember when you could buy Spice from the gas station. My friend ended up talking to a wall for about six hours and tried to play Double Dash with the tv off convinced that he could win every race with his mind

I always think about @hkesvani.bsky.social talking about how Britain is a nation of/for motorists where the experience of driving fucking sucks.

If you boost, hype or market genAI or generic LLM shit in any way, I will remember and I won't forgive. Ever. At the very least, I hope you got paid because doing that for free is just embarrassing. #fuckAI

Maybe the thing with AI is that blaming coders for underspecified needs wasn’t working, but we don’t want to actually have to explain ourselves to the coders, so we get a proxy we can’t usefully blame. So like maybe what we needed were unions.

I will say that pre-built Bluesky accounts that have been washed from being content scrapers are not *as* expensive as washed accounts on more high-traffic sites, but they are not free, and I have seen with my own eyeballs at least $500 worth of accounts at *minimum* this week.

For the record everyone, this is why I block content scraping accounts basically on sight, even ones that I would normally enjoy (cute corgis! Cottagecore!) It’s worth considering, on a non monetised site, why somebody is trying to build a large following with non personal posts.

How about we shift some linehaul road freight from road to rail? Even today's diesel hauled trains use just one third of the fuel per tonne-km of road. Just 1-2% of freight between adjacent interstate capitals currently goes by rail, and there's plenty of capacity. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-04...

My solution to open up the Strait of Hormuz: Split it in two using a Beyblade, like Moses did with the Red Sea

Do not watch Sesame Street on Tubi with the subtitles on 😭. I swear, I didn't edit or add anything. Is it hilarious? Yes, but also, they need to fix this immediately. Absolutely incomprehensible and bad

I have a perfect idea for fixing and funding this app simultaneously: make each reply cost $1, to be refunded when it is liked by the OP.

i’m the amy that blocked this obvious scam bot the fact that the replies to this post below are saying things like “who pissed in amy’s cheerios” is why scam bots are so prevalent on here

all these universities kept axing medieval history departments as if they thought tyrants beefing with the Pope was going to stop being relevant

And this beautiful game on grief is out now! If you want to support Arab-made work about the Arab world, history, arts, and culture -especially in a time of destruction and erasure towards our people- I cannot recommend this game more. store.steampowered.com/app/3451680/...

Hey if you still have an Angelfire or Tripod site, or if you like one, now is the time to back it up, like, urgently

Doing a basic calculation using a chatbot instead of a calculator uses between 2.5 million and 62 million times more energy. And using chatbots for calculations is *extremely common* - the companies have marketed these systems as general purpose, everything-apps!
