Wacom doing planned obsolescence with a "Thank you for your support" on their staggeringly overpriced products wasn't on my bingo card but I am UNSURPRISED. If you too are in this position, allow me to draw your attention to what's probably your best solution: opentabletdriver.net

i don’t like it when people try to vent at me. it’s exhausting.

I hate how overused Alice is in fiction, particularly with blonde girls who venture into a strange new world, but also I want to name a character Alice, who is a blonde girl that ventures into a strange new world. am i a hack

It’s an eminently binge-able, addictive series that pays tribute to all the classic horror tropes while reinventing them in surprising ways.

oh my god

‘Melissophobia’ is a fear of bees. ‘Mel’ is Latin for “honey.” The name, ‘Melissa,’ comes from the Greek word for “honeybee.” In Greek mythology, Melissa was a nymph who fed the infant Zeus honey instead of milk. Later, the gods turned her into a bee (spoiler alert).

the animated Witch Hat Atelier is such a delight. they adapt the comic’s beats so well. in ep 13, Richeh’s badass “neener neener” to the brimmed cap is straight from the manga (vol 4).

the juxtaposition of this image and this quote is misogynistic www.cnn.com/2026/06/22/u...

I love the idea of them overlaid, as heart and mind for me are never separate (or as one friend said to me recently, “to you the personal is paramount”)

my dad is dead

tired of the "#1 dad" nonsense. if you're a dad, stop treating it like a joke and post your actual national dad ranking. i'm # 492,018, which is actually really high up there, but more importantly it lets me enter ranked dad lobbies where i can get matched up for fistfights with dads of my caliber

If you can't celebrate anyone else's achievements and treat everyone as your competition, don't be surprised if no one will stick their neck out for you and all you have left are enemies.

For months, an artist peppered me with messages, telling me he could draw + paint better than artists I currently working with. He's pretty good, but it was obvious working with him would be a huge pain in the ass. His ego was excruciating. Today, he sent another pack of insults and I had enough:

the more i think about GI Joe, Transformers, and Power Rangers 5.5E compatible rules, the more I wanna see how they handle guns and modern-ish tech (Joe), giant robots / mecha (TF), and superpowers (presumably Power Rangers? i never watched that show). heck yeah. i wanna mix all that shit up.

Two men promised a $1.1 million 3D printer could fix this town’s housing crisis. To this day, the one duplex it printed still isn’t finished. A $590,000 deposit for the printer was forfeited. And the more reporter Molly Parker asked questions, the weirder things got: propub.li/4nlU1VD

i get the sense that the people who hate Joseph Campbell’s “monomyth theory“ most don’t actually understand it, because there’s nothing to hate…? He never purported to describe every myth, never claimed all 17 stages (12 via Vogler) are in every myth, none of what his harshest critics claim

There's only ONE basic movie plot. "How do I get away from these dinosaurs?" The dinosaurs may be debt or feelings or Robert Mitchum. But it's all the same thing.

This is the closest I’ll ever get to a real job

I keep thinking, how is this one in particular not a bigger scandal? www.bbc.com/news/article...

A nation cannot survive when this is the unironic epistemological framework of one of its only two major political parties. Although to be fair, I've seen it come up more and more in non-political conversations. The "crime is out of control!" argument, for example.

random: imo manga translations always work better when they keep the honorifics (-kun, -san, -senpai). I know there's no direct translation in English but they make a lot of a character's attitude toward the character they're speaking with so much clearer.

“The point of the paper is to formally show that we anthropomorphise too readily."

We were the only UNIONIZED employees he’d ever had, too. I am broke as hell now, but I’ll never regret saying this: EAT SHIT, YOU PATHETIC TWERP. No matter how much cash you accrue, you’ll never know the joy of solidarity. Your life is empty, and you’ll be remembered as a warning to children.

hah! well *I* buy them when they get released but only play them years later when they are on sale and nobody cares about them anymore because I am an idiot

"Hmmm, that's a nice public domain IP you have there, would be a shame if.... GODZILLA HAPPENED TO IT" 🫡

I feel like digital humanities was this great 15 year moment of techno-optimism that created solid resources and showed how old media connected to new media. Whereas AI is going to introduce a period of techno-cannibalism designed to devour digital humanities labor and anyone else in its proximity.

I cannot stress enough that this IS NOT NORMAL. As in, it does not happen. Unless, of course, the government wouldn’t want defendants to find something in discovery by pursuing their legal fees under the Hyde Amendment.
