I need a native French speaker that I’m not related to to explain the usage of on vs nous to me

Lower executive pay would make most companies more profitable.

Normally I'd say "with all due respect" but in this case, none is given. Absolutely the fuck not.

“Sneering odium” 🤔 I’ll remember that when I’m climbing off your mum.

Hello Press and Content Creators! If you'd like a key to cover Mythmatch on Switch ahead of the July 7th launch, you can request it here on PressEngine! requestkey.net/Mythmatch And if you can think of anyone who'd be a good fit to cover it, please tag them!

Some of my AV equipment politely displays "Please wait" when I switch it off. I'm not clear what for. If it doesn't turn off on its own, what chance do I have of stopping it? The machines are rising up, and I want to be as far away as possible.

Apparently the CEO has had a death threat sent to him which is completely unacceptable. Although the actions of others are not my responsibility, i would like to ask people to remain civil and polite, not least because I am being blamed.

I had a message this morning from the CEO of the Tank Museum to inform me the below product has now been removed from sale. He has advised me to ‘reflect carefully on whether it is responsible to make claims publicly‘ about the Tank Museum having a reputation for pandering to Wehraboos.…

Israeli lobbyists: Remove the terms “Palestine”, “Palestinian” and “Israelite occupation” from your displays! British Museum: Okay. Egypt: Can we have the Rashid Stone back? Britiish Museum: Fuck off!

I get what they're trying to do here, but this is abelism at its finest. What about those of us who can't because of disabilities? Like school attendance rewards, we have to miss out through no fault of our own. 1/3 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... @meassociation.org.uk @actionforme.bsky.social

Going with my mum to the supermarket and this meme pops into my head every time. I’m 54.

For clarity, we have 111 in the UK, where we can call anytime and speak with a healthcare professional that will essentially triage what pathway you should take - go to your GP, hospital, pharmacist etc. Again, free at the point of use. Universal healthcare ftw 🙌🏻

This is Harley. She's never rolled down a hill before, but she's super proud of her first attempt. 13/10 nailed it (TT: jesskoselke)

Fix the built environment and a lot of physical and mental ailments will be mitigated against. The government is actively harming you whilst it refuses to undertake these measures.

Loved working on this story about a rare copy of the Declaration of Independence found in the UK National Archives - and seized from a captured American privateer in 1776. On board, a crew of multiple nationalities including a freed black man, Daniel Cottle 1/x www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Tee hee and all that, but this is how Scott Johnson, one of Radiohead’s techs, was killed. It’s NOT GOOD ENOUGH to leave stages badly rigged. They need multiple, systematic checks.

Combustion chamber from V2 missile reused as flower pot on grave of 4 killed in explosion. Koewacht, Netherlands/Belgium.

its *literally* never too late, yall. I have met folks that transitioned in their 50s and 60s and all had great results. Its *never* too late.

Supermarkets. Do a deal on Kevin Bacon DVDs by giving away a Mr Kipling cake with each one. Call it Footloose & Fancy Free.

Show me a cool physical game.

I recapped this story back in 2020 when I was told about this text size slider. I was so happy they did it and I constantly tell this story to prove the point that feedback after launch can be beneficial and also it's never too late to add accessibility. youtu.be/drGck89IHe4?...

I just don't get it anymore. Once again another studio that had great accessibility. My favourite accessibility story where they saw feedback about text size was too small in Outer Worlds so they then spent a few months after launch adding a text size slider. But that doesn't matter anymore does it?

one of the best adventures money can buy, and a ridiculously SMALL amount of money in this case

Ooh, here’s a screenshot of the title. It’s very interesting, features some fascinating research undertaken by the Sorbonne which explored how the colours would have presented during the tapestry’s early life, alongside lots of other really interesting research. Am going to rewatch it myself 🙂

I've only recently learned that ACAB means "all cops are bastards". I thought it meant "assigned 'cunt' at birth".

this feels so long ago

I love noticing little moments of symmetry as I travel on the London Underground network. I spotted this perfect alignment at Whitechapel station.

Oh, thank god, “Weird” Al Yankovic is still cool. (He turned down an offer to appear in an LLM software commercial.) www.syracuse.com/entertainmen...

I’m happy to announce the release of a new open source 3D physics engine called Box3D. I’ve been working on this project for a few years now, but it represents over 20 years of experience writing physics engines for games. Read more here: box2d.org/posts/2026/0...

I see games on consoles at £65+ and thoroughly enjoy my £5 Steam summer sales.

I don't want to wade into the discourse, but there is no equal access to downloads. The internet infrastructure in the US is legit dogshit- all I have to do is drive 25 minutes in any direction to find shit internet. Which we all rediscovered during covid video calls for online school failed.

While preparing the trip to Ithaca, I was lucky enough to have a chat with @meghna.bsky.social and @joostvervoort.bsky.social. We discussed taking billionaires to court, their game All Will Rise, and Meghna made a great point about the joy of fighting for good things: youtube.com/shorts/qnFcq...

"Trans rights are human rights" is a nice thing to say but if you're an ally, what if—and stay with me on this one—what if you made our lives a little easier by helping us afford to live? $60, 396 indie projects made by queer humans across the globe, all DRM-free. itch.io/b/3682/the-p...

So they want to be the number one game company in the world… except they’re going to cancel and shutter every studio that’s not making Halo, Gears or Forza. Truly the executives are forward thinking master planners.

Godot’s new AI policy is here. the TL;DR: all code must human authored.

When people ask me if I have any good stories from when I used to interview rock stars for a living my mind often goes a bit blank, and to be honest a lot of it was quite ordinary and unremarkable, but on the other hand there is this.

"They had random judges kind of burning the ladies. I don't know if they were guilty or not." ...You don't know if the ladies were guilty of being WITCHES?

Chicago History Museum is doing an ad hoc free admission day tomorrow for Chicago residents in order to give people an air conditioned place to be during the day, which is a lovely move. Do other local museums do the same during extreme temps? I hadn't heard of it before.

If someone has the audacity to assert that ice cream "isn't a healthy way" to counteract the summer heat, then it's perfectly acceptable to politely remove them from your circle of friends.
