Putting this out there for those who need it

42/ Found it strange that ppl push back on my argument that sales of electric vehicles are going to accelerate after Iran War, coz LINE GO UP for a decade now Turns out almost no one knows this fact:Sales of internal combustion engine cars peaked way back in 2018 ourworldindata.org/data-insight...

gonna give her the benefit of the doubt and assume this is an alibi post for whatever she’s planning

昼寝終わり、懇親会にGo

Here's the initial block list of those who attended the WHCD tonight. Adding names as it becomes clear they were there.

when i give thanks for living in my beautiful fish-fueled oligarch monopoly land, i like to say a little prayer for the money pump guy who stands on the hill pumping money out of the money factory. that guy’s great

(visibly pale and distraught): “don’t worry im okay i’m just processing a lot cheese right now”

in these difficult days, i can only hope some brilliant mind is working on bespoke utensils for eating loaded nachos

primary source for the ian watson obit i just posted was this fantastically rich and informative article about early Warhammer fiction and thoughts on the respectability of tie-in writing in general. amazing things can and do happen in ip writing, with perceived constraints elevating the work

RIP to an absolute unit. the Draco books got pretty ridiculous, but Space Marine is a gut-punch high-bar classic of the genre, often imitated, never equalled. seldom has a universe so forbidding been made so inviting and alive. for Dorn, for Terra and for glory 👊

I enjoy the paleontological figurines posted by @tetzoo.bsky.social but actually double-took at this year's must-have (in)action figure in our local Tasmanian toyshop: a putrefying sauropod carcass. What child wouldn't love this. Anyway, it's a mood. #dinosaur #model #paleontology #toy

I've been seeing variations of this post hitting a ton of groups on facebook for market vendors lol people are sick of this shit

1/7 🧵 There’s a storm brewing in #Budapest that should have certain politicians across Europe and North America feeling very uneasy. We’re seeing the blueprint of how the Orbán government allegedly functioned as a "fifth column" for russia within the #EU and NATO.

"Light Fossils" dinosaur light painting by artist Darren Pearson, known as Darius Twin, using a unique photography technique. The artwork is created using long-exposure photography, where the camera shutter remains open while the artist moves handheld lights to "draw" the figures in real-time.

This really puts my problems into perspective.

From #Apollo (left) to #Artemis (right), two glances at our only home, 54 years apart. One was our Blue Marble — full and vibrant. The other seems like a tiny, solitary jewel in the black cosmic ocean. Yet it’s always the same #Earth. The same heartbeat. That’s us… in both.❤️ 🔭 🧪

Imagine if a woman had started a war of choice, but she got bored of that war, so she talked about redecorating instead….

imagine what you could do if elected dictator of a 1st world country. u could ban plastics, diesel and streaming media, invest in free trains and solar power and enforce lifetime warranties on tech. imagine getting where *he* is after 80 years on earth and pissing it away on all this stupid bullshit

“Blood for the Blood God,” Hegseth added when pressed for comment. “Skulls for the Skull Throne.”

This iron age man buried in Sussex was so proud of his awesome helmet that he developed an archaeologically detectable neck injury from wearing it so often.

Well it's Sunday, I hope you're having a good Weekend, here's a #RandomWhiteDwarfCover Issue 22. December/January 1980/81

spotify is bad for musicians

Steve Tappin

going to assume we have No Kings to thank for the fact that people aren’t using ‘king’ to address men any more, so that’s a big win right there

Every sentence brings something new to the madness. Stick it on CEEFAX.

How I feel reading 99% of art and media critique these days

Stepan the lynx in Kyiv is still a fatass even after a year of being cut off from US military funding. Truly Ukrainians are resilient.

'but harry potter was such a huge part of my childhood' reminder: the only reason jk rowling is doing a harry potter tv remake is bcos she wants a version she can flog that doesn't involve the original cast.

Haha

absolutely infuriated at having to see or hear anything having to do with the harry potter shit again. wallowed through a damn decade of that stupid british people crap. harry potter themed pub crawls and adults talking about "their comfort series" and here we are right back. we live in hell

more important scholarship #birds #charts #tongheron

Translation takes years of expertise and experience to accurately understand and reinterpret meaning into an entirely different culture. Using AI instead will a) be shit and b) takes paid work from specialists, making their existence less viable. Scab behaviour.

I was asked to give my thoughts on generative AI usage in games - here they are!

Dietz’s Dark Forces series is some of the most understated, personal and powerful Star Wars fiction out there, with endearing & inventive character arcs and a wonderfully dry wit. those books taught me so much about how to flesh out a world and never be afraid to let your characters be human ✊🥹 RIP

Massive and immediate retaliation is the best policy. Unfortunately...

there is a great plague upon the Warhammer media universe, a horrid evil that absolutely must be stopped, and it is audiobook narrators who think they can do accents
