I keep being like "I just gotta get through this month" but seriously at some point I'll be done getting through months and be able to have a nice time again, right? RIGHT????

As a Girl Scout and a Whovian, I am in love!

As his first day as president, we shall see Tolkien back in all the schools! (Seriously, though, the bar has indeed changed. Go for it, Colbert. You'd almost certainly have my vote.)

Man I love commissioning people I would be a menace if I had a lot of money

A limerick. Based on a true story.

— Fashion is a feminine coded interest and thus considered frivolous, whereas masculine-coded interests, such as architecture, are considered "serious." Doesn't matter if a tremendous amount of skilled labor or creativity went into making something, such as the handmade lace or shoulder line below.

Pierre Bourdieu once argued that the question of whether something is art isn't answered by the artist's intention or even the object itself. Instead, the quality of being "art" is conferred by a community — curators, dealers, auction houses, audiences, etc. 🧵

Y'all if you're forced into using Chrome, here's what you need to do to get rid of that AI bullshit they're downloading to your devices even when you delete it.

Chrome is reaching into users' machines and writing a 4 GB on-device AI model file to disk without asking. It is the weights for Gemini Nano, Google's on-device LLM. Chrome did not ask. Chrome does not surface it. If the user deletes it, Chrome re-downloads it. www.thatprivacyguy.com/blog/chrome-...

Hey, Beaumont Texas and surrounds: Go get Missy! Dilute Torties are some of the best cats. They’re generally very sweet and affectionate, they bond with their people and they’re just lovely.

@mayor.nyc.gov Hubert Mohamed is exactly the type of cop the NYPD should not be employing — NYC taxpayers should not be paying this abusive piece of crap!

This website still works; I just checked. Seems to host everything under the sun: "Motherless is a moral free file host where anything legal is hosted forever!...

Today is my birthday and I'd really love it if I could get some reposts or something I guess? Here is a collection of my favorite pieces from the past couple years, I hope you enjoy them as much as I did making them. #art #sciart #nature #animals #birds

This also goes for canon and non-canon ships. Or almost-canon-but-then-the-show-got-canceled ships.

I try to be a good person and have sympathy for people in legal trouble. And, certainly, in these troubled times one is called to almost reflexively sympathize with the people arrested rather than the police. But our HOA manager has been arrested, and I am currently building a guillotine for them.

This article says, “To look at them today is to read time itself. “ which is an Italian phrase that loosely translates as: “These guys are old as fuck.” www.montecarlotimes.eu/2026/04/30/b...

Having a house in Scotland with solar panels is a really eye opening experience. Solar panels work in Scotland - and if they work here, they work anywhere, because everywhere else in the world is sunnier than here

If you want to go back to the Nazi bar purely because your numbers arent big enough, go right ahead. Also that means youre a Nazi. Go fuck off Nazi, and Ill make sure to tell all my mutuals to avoid your Nazi slop, you fucking Nazi.

Recently, I heard the sad news of the death of Joanna Crosby, specialist in the history of apples and orchards. She came on the podcast to chat with about it me in 2024. I've put out the episode again in case you'd not heard about her great work xx open.spotify.com/episode/7iX6...

Just saw an Amazon AI HEALTH ad and the fucking HYPOCRISY!!!! So when we (chronically ill folk) research and use our brains and talk to other people suffering and then seek treatment we're using "Dr. Google" and Shouldn't Do That. But A LYING THEFT MACHINE IS OKAY?????????? SUCH A FUCKING JOKE!!!!

AO3 put out a warning detailing what kinds of automated bot comments you should watch for, remember its AI doing these archiveofourown.org/admin_posts/...

If you read a fanfic for even 5 minutes and it makes you crack a smile, leave a comment telling the author that. something as simple as "this made me smile" matters a lot when majority of writers are either getting no comments or botted AI hate comments suicidebaiting on AO3

This is one of the most quietly revolutionary things any city can do to improve kids' lives & outcomes. If you genuinely care about kids having access to education or safe after school spaces & activities, then fund your libraries, staff your libraries, & make every public school ID a library card.

This is the line EVERYONE needs to take. Art is art is art and the moment we budge on that is the moment they get the foot in the door to policing *everything*. Open a book. Read some history. Look at what's happening around us. Art* cannot hurt people — censorship absolutely can, has, and will.

i've been getting more folks telling me about this and it's not anything i agreed to. it's been stolen like AI steals. please vandalize it if and when you see it.

I tried out watercolors on some handmade paper I got for my birthday.

hot take: women are less likely to use AI because we’re quick to clock flattery as a tool of manipulation

swear to god nothing has radicalized like me like watching rich men burn our planet, dry up our freshwater and poison our kids to invent the world’s most powerful technology — a robot chick who laughs at all their jokes

For my Heated Rivalry friends!

Play on easy. Play on hard. Play cozy games. Play brutal games. Play one game all year if that’s what makes you happy. Video games are not a purity test. If they bring you joy, comfort, laughter, escape, or peace… you’re playing them right.
