*getting the shit kicked out of me* Okay the Yuuzhan Vong-

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have discovered a powerful antibody, known as 04_A06, that is able to neutralize 98.5% of MORE THAN 300 different HIV strains AND permanently reduce HIV viral load to undetectable levels, making it one of the broadest-acting antibodies against HIV identified to date.

Yessss. I just used Claude Sonnet to transcribe text from a ton of image files and translate that to a fortune file, saving me time doing a repetitive task. :)

This #ArmisticeDay, I highly encourage everyone to read about the history of the Anzac Memorial, and in particular: nas.edu.au/crucifixion-... I had the privilege to visit the Anzac Memorial this year, and it is one of the most horrifying and incredible sculptures of remembrance I have ever seen.

Our Veterans deserve better. #VeteransDay

Trying Syncthing out!

Almost* nothing in life makes me less happy to be an American than health insurance open enrollment periods. And I have really good health insurance! *(not counting recent political events)

Welcome to Seattle, mind the w y l d l i f e

I know there's at least one person here who follows me for updates on the #DNS setting. Well, good news, I have a story planned to release before the end of the year that covers a lot of the lore and general background of the setting as well as the fallout of current political year on the characters

🔥 Happy 250th Birthday, Marines! 🔥 We salute the United States Marine Corps for its legacy of courage and commitment. Thank you, Marines! #SemperFi #Marines250 #USMC #VeteransStrong #WDVASemperFi

One of the best Mars games, and one of my absolute favorite city builder and optimization games, relaunches today! Highly encourage giving it a shot if you haven't already. www.paradoxinteractive.com/games/surviv...

I would like to stop receiving AI spam. I don't want to hear about your poorly integrated and underdeveloped AI add on. Thanks.

www.ctvnews.ca/canada/artic... This is only going to keep on happening, too. If Washington State is serious about keeping easy visitation going with BC, we need to strengthen our control over our own border to prevent Federal overreach from making crossing between BC & Washington a hazardous task.

Hey do any of my furry friends know of someone who would be really good at drawing a deerfox / Christmas version of me? If so, please let me know!

Been doing the free weekend for #CitiesSkylines2 and it's actually really neat AND runs on my old computer! I'm not a hardcore city gamer, but what I like about it is that a lot of stuff that previously required mods and advanced knowhow is just; right there.

Also I completely buy into the Meyers and Kurt had a relationship thing sorry not sorry.

My "actually Cyberpunk can be a pretty great series" turn around continues. Edgerunners is fantastic, a really good Studio Trigger production, love the bit at the start with "you must reup your washing machine sub". Setting is at its best when it explores desperation, loss, & POC experiences

Back from a lovely vacation to Japan with @binaryvixen899.bsky.social! We walked around one volcano and drove around another :) then we did the most absurd return back to the PNW, Kagoshima to Tokyo via Shinkansen, Tokyo to Hong Kong via air, and then Hong Kong to Vancouver. North/south/north, haha

Dear Windows: I am running as Administrator, what more permissions do I need for this health check? Access denied for what?!?

BREAKING: The USDA tells states funds will be made available later today to pay November SNAP benefits in full.

Doing housework and need something to listen to in the background? #DragonAscendant is the first English biography in over 130 years, on Japanese 17th century disaster bisexual warlord Date Masamune. Now available end to end in one handy playlist! open.spotify.com/playlist/3qo... #Skystorian

The opening of Cyberpunk Edgerunners really gets me. "Please reup your washing machine subscription" just _damn_

If you can, travel to another country and go out to lunch at a busy social restaurant. Engage in human connection, it will nourish you.

I often think this about unions (the monetary cost benefit part), when you look at how much money companies that are at their peak spend opposing unions, it is simply absurd and perhaps betrays a deep insecurity.

Mods are asleep, post Air Canada Concorde

The bonds that connect people are so much stronger than the ones that divide.

Feel it

I stand by my belief that only deeply, deeply out of touch people reinforced by other deeply out of touch believe the idea that the average voter understands and follows the extremely complex conspiracy brained transphobia espoused by online weirdos (IE: "transgenderism = ultimate narcissism" )

The 2024 election was not a binding referendum on American culture that everyone must accept and accommodate. Never was.

Mamdani gets next week’s New Yorker cover:

And if the if the vote shifts a normal amount, she will win. This was always likely to be close. Keep calm and prepare to cure ballots if needed!

Anything helps <3 www.gofundme.com/f/help-a-tra...

I AM GOING TO BE HAVING A HUGE GLASS OF ASAHI TONIGHT!

I AM SO HAPPY FOR NEW YORK CITYYYYYY!!!!!

MAMDANI WINS!!!

An Air Canada flight right now

I am going to try harder than ever not to unnecessarily discuss depressing politics with my loved one this year. When I do have to, I always note that we will win; because this is something I believe. _But also, you bet I will be making it lighter by inserting Yinglet resistance fighters into WIII_

Most people are good people, and will view you as a person, not as an object of disgust. Transphobes are lying to you. The world is not against us, the vast majority of people are just going about their lives, not sharpening stakes specifically for us.

A better, kinder world is possible. With horrible ugliness and cruelty comes the possibility to open people's eyes to the lies that they have been fed and the alternate cooperative paths that will benefit all of us instead of just enrich a select few through cruelty and suffering.

Osaka on Halloween night is the absolute best. GO OSAKA!!!

happy halloween i am ready to confuse some trick-or-treaters

!!! Hyper Police finally got translates into English !!!

hey um if this doesn't get 2500 fatter in 3 days, star won't be able to do her bottom surgery

I also think that a lot of the harm of social media comes from the attempt to engage with a gigantic social context frame. People aren't built for that, it's why my strategy for "a bunch of people I don't know are mad at me and I don't agree and don't care about them" is "turn off notifications"
