I love everyone responding to this with jokes and not acknowledging that this is a thing one of the programmers at Bluesky did

Not many people know this, but Microsoft modeled the intellimouse explorer based off Steve Ballmer’s shirt in the famous “Developers” chant

people are really sleeping on what an ally barney is

Bought an Xbox One S from goodwill and even though it had been factory reset, it was still set as the previous owner’s home console. Hello free copy of RDR2…

Fucking Time Machine salesman ripped me off. I bought a Time Machine from this guy and tried to go back in time to October 10th, 1582 but it didn’t work, saying “invalid date” or some such. Tried again using a hard override and it dumped me off the coast of Africa on 1/1/1970.

Our first Unreal Engine 3 president

"Videogames cause gun violence" was the excuse used to distract from the facts the Columbine shooters were neonazis, and here we are pulling the old Jack Thompson special again, because of course...

Hiding file extensions by default is still one of those features that I can’t believe is still a thing. While I’m sure it looks neater, having it there makes it harder to catch double-barreled extensions like LOVE-LETTER-FOR-YOU.TXT.vbs

You all failed the assignment.

CAN CONFIRM

oh look the very reason we were screaming about gavin newsom and pete buttigied legitimizing the sports nonsense is now happening. never vote for a democrat who compromises on minority rights. it doesn't matter if they're "blue".

Imagine if every time you got id’ed to buy booze the clerk took your id and photocopied it and put it in a filing cabinet. Imagine if that filing had been broken into before and they never changed the locks. Also they could sell that filing cabinet of ids to anybody who asks.

getting really sick of my friends telling me the cursed blade is warping my mind. it's LITERALLY fine. i can stop fucking using it whenever i want. i think they're just jealous. like they know it'd corrupt them but i'm clearly stronger than its influence. in fact, i'm stronger than all of them...

ATTN Catholic furries. Unless your partner has a fishsona, NO VORE ON FRIDAYS.

if you're wondering how things are going on tumblr, it turns out one of the people who has been making "won't somebody rid us of this troublesome priest" type posts about various trans women on the site is also actively posting on kiwifarms and an actual pizzagate believer.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

> uk parliament pushes legal and extralegal exclusion of trans women from public life > women's groups start closing en masse masterful gambit keir and joanne. surely this will protect women

A repeating pattern I’ve noticed: Trans woman: *makes a post about specific forms of transmisogynistic behavior by TME trans people* Trans women in the replies/Quote Reskeets: “This happened to me.” TME trans people in the replies/Quote Reskeets: “This never happens.”

imagine if taylor swift got sent to the worst prison in the world on trumped up charges and then two years later when the apocalypse happens she gets let out of prison to help convince a giant city destroying kaiju to help stop the end of the world.

my gf wanted me to pick up a jar of mayostard from the grocery store. for fucks sake we are a mustardayonnaise household.

We've only been aware of Trump's racism since a 1973 article about his real estate company refusing the rent apartments to black people, the first ever mention of his name in the NYT. That's why his Obama meme comes as a total shock. Who knew?

Petoria and Joehio have deep and long standing cultural ties and any attempt at a peace process between the United States and Petoria should recognize that Joehio has always been closer to Petoria than the United States and make territorial concessions to match.

He's a sexual predator who was fucking a trans woman while using her as a patsy to write a book about how he thinks trannies are all gross perverts.

Upon the advice of my scheming vizer, I have decided to change my will so that my kingdom will be split equally among my three sons when I die. Now to drink this goblet of wine that my scheming vizer has suspiciously been encouraging me to drink.

Funniest mistranslation I’ve seen is in the inuyasha manga where “Yankii” which means “delinquent youth” was mistranslated as “Yankee” as in “American.” Because it still works.

How are we going to get to the moon if we can’t talk between two or three buildings?

Emma Tennent and I wrote a paper on this. TERF submission to AoNZ government committee, only talks about trans women but never refers to them (starts our "neutral" with 'transgender people' and slowly makes it clear women are meant with twisty category implications. (pdf at my researchgate) 1/2

Kash has of course done a lot of damage as the head of the FBI but I was worried he would come in as a Miller-esque true believer laser focused on weaponizing the place and he's mostly just dismantled it largely through neglect because he is laser-focused on Being A Celebrity

Charles Dickens: The plight of how Victorian England treats children is intolerable and we shan’t tolerate it any longer. Also Charles Dickens: My worthless son Plorn just sits around and does nothing, so I’m gonna drop him off in the Australian Outback to toughen him up.

the reaction to the death of Scott Adams should contrast particularly with the (eventual) death of Bill Watterson, who will be mourned in the style of the ancient Pharaohs, with all of Ohio entombed alive along with him

americans, please: do not take the bait by resisting ICE yourselves. just give the democrats $20. they will give it to ICE so they can train more guys

I’m tired of hearing about the hockey show for straight women who have their bachelorette parties at gay bars.

BEN: one of the major failings of the dem party last election is the unwillingness to say whether it's true or untrue a boy can become a girl GAV: yeah ... BEN: can you say a boy is not a girl? GAV: i uh- and- you know- [laughs] we can go down- a year ago i was w/ charlie having this conversation

good news! if you need or want to know what transphobic shit gavin newsom got up to with ben shapiro today but you don't hate yourself enough to go through his podcast, i do! 🏳️‍⚧️🧵here is a thread of clips for your immiseration

just increasingly obvious that everything online Dems got excited about in casting Newsom as a “fighter” was simply the skilled efforts of a comms team who knows exactly what online Dems will fall for, while the man himself has a spine made of absolute tapioca pudding

I feel like there is a very obvious answer as to why a letter from an administration that is trying to shoehorn AI into everything would send somebody a threatening letter that had some tells of being generated by AI.

istg if someone ever dares to hit me with cis men or trans men are affected by transmisogyny again, i will tattoo this transcript to their forehead

The concept of intersectionality has been abused quite often by a lot of dumb people to say "well what about marginalized men" when this is what Kimberle Crenshaw was actually talking about when she synthesized the concept, albeit originally specifically misogynoir not transmisogyny.

"Trans healthcare is healthcare" disappeared one day in 2020 and hasn't been seen since.

Apparently ICE goons in multi-car caravans are circling Spanish immersion preschools in the city taunting and photographing the parents and neighbors who are patrolling the school perimeter to keep kids safe.

A Supreme Court Justice is saying that it’s not anti-trans discrimination to only ban trans women since they’re not banning ALL trans people. But tell me again how “we’re all f*gg*ts in the eyes of the state.”

You don't have to like Scott Adams or agree with his views, but please don't harass people who have their Dilbert house in their bio. A lot of kids grew up with Dilbert. Dilbert got us through some tough times. Dilbert saved us. Dilbert saved me. Please let us mourn and process our Dilbert feelings.

My girlfriend and I tried to spice things up with some roleplaying. Didn’t quite work out though because she insisted on 3.5e and I wanted 5e.

Perhaps it would be sensible not to harass the trans woman for being mildly perplexed by people being horny for the CGI dog?

sometimes i remember this clip and it reminds me that THIS was the show that tumblr lost their minds over to the point of inventing elaborate conspiracy theories about how their favorite white boi ship would be endgame. THIS show: youtu.be/0FSKTndbwVo

Because of a conspiracy theory-based stunt by a January 6 insurrectionist who was trying to intimidate children and daycare workers, Trump is now freezing ALL childcare payments across the country. You’ve got to be fucking kidding me. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
