The Luddites' actual argument was that automated looms meant expensive, skilled workers were being replaced with literal children, who were then getting maimed and killed, and maybe this is bad.

ATTENTION ALL NEW YORK TRANNIES WHO GOT FUCKED BY THE TECH INDUSTRY

I completely understand 1930-40s Germany now.

It’s so fucking strange to be at once inundated on all sides of my professional life by people swearing things are normal in some way and my brain working well enough to remember when and why we built the standards and practices we’re actively dismantling. We’ll learn our lesson, but far too late.

Fucking on the arcade floor sofa tonight

Pause. #chicago

You ever close your eyes for half a second and immediately start dreaming? No? Just me then? Okay.

I wrote about what looks very much like a formal US plan to institutionalize a global network of concentration camps.

I would like to posit that for most of human history, work was being done largely under the influence of drugs. Sobriety is thus the outlier; productivity under sobriety thus anomalous, and why we find ourselves so exhausted by the productivity demands placed on us.

One of the many problems of being a hypochondriac is never being sure when you’re at a ‘normal’ stage. You notice it only because the amount of anxious brain noise reduces, though it never goes away. So your sense of wellness - mental and physical - is defined through different shades of grey.

Not a big fan of this weird gland that keeps getting inflamed, calming back down, then getting inflamed again.

Better believe my name was dominating the library card for this book in grade school!! One or my favourites!

DID YOU KNOW IF YOU FIND A HORSESHOE CRAB THATS BEEN TAGGED BY THE FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE AND SUBMIT THE LOCATION YOU SAW IT USING THE FORM ON FWS DOT GOV SLASH CRABTAG THEY SEND YOU A BEAUTIFUL CRAB PIN

Wait wait you’re saying the company responsible for the largest theft of IP in history has leadership that doesn’t respect the IP of its partners? Really? You mean to say that Apple didn’t know they were getting into bed with conmen? REALLY??? And now they’re getting what they bargained for???

RIP Bonnie Tyler. And RIP Tandi Iman Dupree. This remains the best stage entrance by a drag queen of all time, even some 25 years later, and the best use of Tyler’s “Holding Out for a Hero” ever. youtu.be/IHQA5vqn6rw?...

Hey look, I'm bringing my game demo to another physical event, yippee! (I am definitely not relishing in y'all's Wiimote struggles. Definitely not, hehe.)

I think if you needed any more evidence that the cuts are shortsighted and focused on cutting as deep and as fast as possible with little regard for the future, this is pretty definitive. That engine felt like magic in some spots. A colossal waste of talent and resources.

this is the coolest thing I have ever seen

ICE is engaged in a very large escalation nationwide, with the agency claiming to be hitting record arrest numbers amid the return of quotas. This has gotten very little attention from the media because ICE learned lessons from the chaotic disasters of Kristi Noem’s tenure. Keep a watch.

It’s rad af that my friends and people I respect are increasingly figuring out their path through transness, but it is WILD how it seems to be happening kinda all at once? Like we all woke up fed up with our lives and went ‘well I ain’t dying this way at least.’

I think it’s wild that as you get exposed to a topic, you learn a basic understanding, then how that basic structure is wrong, then how the more complex structure is also wrong and why the basic structure is used as a simplification. And this applies to EVERYTHING. Like, calling asha sharma unfit.

If you can help folks please reach out to them

The onion never misses

"id software's tech team is being laid off" is apocalyptic. it's an oh, it's over-over for me

There’s a particular type of c-suite brain that does not understand the difference between generated material based on the largest theft of ip in history running on machines actively killing us at great expense so you can make a shittier fake fast food logo, and the goalie on your manchester roster.

Can’t believe the world cup just ran out of cum.

If you want a list, here’s a list.

Meet Periwinkle Patch, the plush cow dragon! This adorable patchwork plush premiered here at Anthrocon and I just had to share a few pics before I got home to edit the rest💜 More pics and details soon, I promise!! Owned by @scufflesrat.bsky.social

By speaking out, this Major has likely relinquished his right to millions of dollars of future benefits and entitlements of his service. Health insurance, pension, etc. When Hegseth was threatening Mark Kelly an other veteran members of Congress, that’s what he was after. Not a small show of courage

Kinda bummed to hear people are claiming this is AI. I spent ages on this banner. My patrons saw many WIP shots and I got the fat layered PSB on my home computer. Like hell I'd touch AI. Please correct folks spreading this rumor.

This shit is how I know I’m ace.

Things really started going downhill when they disabled /me on the discord mobile client.

I dun wanna take off my skirt to get dinner :(.

Don't do any of this.

Remembering Trans March a couple years ago where I almost dropped my skirt in the urinal of a port-o-potty. “IT IS TOO EARLY IN THE MORNING TO BE COVERED IN THE PISS OF STRANGERS,” I shrieked. One port-o-potty away, a pitch-perfect Gandalf replied “AND WHAT ABOUT THE PISS OF VERY OLD FRIENDS?”

Good lord, I need a different job. Absolutely going nuts.

newatlas.com/energy/elect... Dang, getting 95% restoration on electrodes just by taking them out, giving them a chemical bath, and inserting in a new battery. And repeating again for 90% restoration! Massive cost reduction for delivering second (and third) life batteries.

istfg if you use the word ‘robust’ in a pr, I’m ignoring the whole thing.

My brain is so completely dysfunctional amid *waves hands at everything*. All I wanna do is make music and dance. And I’m not very good at either :/.

"Weird Al" Yankovic has always been a real one. Just learned that he very recently turned down "a nice pile of money" to shill for A.I. Damn right he did. @alyankovic.bsky.social www.syracuse.com/entertainmen...

Connie Jonika is a scary and dangerous person. Please ban them from any convention spaces, online spaces and then keep an eye on them that they actually don't do anything violent. I'm serious.

Welp, lessons learned today so far: how not to core your vial of injectable drugs, how important proper battery storage is. Shall we go for a third?
