95% of authors are not making a living through book publishing. The public needs to understand this.

yeah

in Doom (2016) there is a secret area that has an image of Dopefish from Commander Keen holding a pair of guns painted on the wall.

Right-side up, but stacked so the only the top one is exposed. Mugs are right side up and always get a rinse anyway.

There. Now you have something to connect the serial port on your #RC2014 type thing, so it can talk to the terminal baked into this board. VT-100 with colour, basically.

So a while back I was commissioned to do short bios of various rock stars, and they were just about universally total psychopaths, with the huge exception of Freddie Mercury. A lovely man who did good by his wife, his lovers, and his cats.

hot music take: classic VNV Nation ('95-'05) was basically Alanis Morissette for the industrial crowd

We were somewhere around Barstow on the edge of the desert when the drugs began to take hold, Charlie Brown

yeah

There is a post circulating on Bluesky encouraging the moving of a frozen turkey straight into a pot of hot oil. We are combating this misinformation the best way we know how - through the power of dance music.

dropped out of an audio engineering major because it was too early for bandcamp and didn't want anything to do with the exploitative nature of the music industry in 2002. Computers were eventually the hobby that made money and I hate it

Mirror's edge will always be one of those games that will keep an existing memory in my heart, and that's partly due to its wonderful main theme, which has also been my ringtone for 15 years.

I bought a Nokia phone from an Iranian on Craigslist once and it was ALL Arabic numerals on the phone! Oh no! 🤷‍♀️ Fortunately I had a solid 80s/90s Evangelical homeschool education and was taught exotic things like Arabic numbers and how to be a submissive wife

Everyone should read @theradr.bsky.social book, "On Repentance and Repair." Then, we should hold people responsible for repenting and repairing the damage they've done

those motherfuckers BETTER not drag Uncle Pey'j into this AI bullshit. i keep saying there's no way Ubisoft could possibly create a worthy follow up to the masterpiece that was Beyond Good & Evil now, simply because they've lost the point entirely.

Sunrises 😇🤍✨

Capt. Vasiliy: "-and drive from state to state. Do they let you do that?" Capt. Ramius: "I suppose" Vasiliy: "No papers?" Ramius: "maybe we should go back to the Soviets and claim it was all a secret security test that nobody can verify"

So... spells. We're using spells to undo the work we've done... tricking rocks into thinking with lightning. And trapping evil cars in circles of salt. The old ways are new again.

Today is the day to repost this meme about International Men's Day, one of the most unironically wholesome memes that has ever been made. Shoutout to all my fellow champs, chiefs, and kings. ✊

"Honey you're attractive and gorgeous and I want to have sex, but could we fuck to something that isn't Horsell Common and the Heat Ray (Official Audio) from Jeff Wayne and Richard Burton's progressive rock album War of the Worlds based on the works of HG Wells?"

Share a TV series you've watched from beginning to end more than once. it's rough but I adore those queer magical disasters

This is one of the reasons why Hackers (1995) has aged as well as it has—a large focus of the effort of "hacking" in the movie doesn't even involve using computers!

if most of you knew the things I get up to in order to keep my garbage brain from catastrophic self-destruction, you'd probably try to have me committed. i'm not really a danger to myself but if you knew *why* I'm not you'd freak out anyway and that just does not help things.

The Phoenician Scheme. It's the sort of film one might study in a cinematography course and it's frickin hilarious with a fairly heartwarming ending

CITIZENS OF SEATTLE: I'll be performing at Ass-tronauts & Robo-tits, a sci-fi burlesque show on December 6th in West Seattle! It's gonna be a great show, get your tickets now! www.ticketleap.events/tickets/the-...

EMERGENCY The hearing went badly, and we're not considered tenants. I may have to leave without my partner and daughter imminently. PLEASE HELP PLEASE HELP. I HAVE NO RESOURCES LEFT

A terrible idea I must put out into the world just so I seem prophetic when someone searches back and says WHAT DID SHE KNOW?!: There will be LLM pets at some point in the future. When folk get sick of hallucinations and creepily emulating humanity, we'll have strange small furry things -

Cozy books can fuck and still be cozy. They can fuck a LOT, in fact. Almost too much, according to some readers. That’s cozy to me.

Someone posted this blank so I had to fill it out.

The improved Magic Wand tool is exhilarating.

"OP, why are you a woman" "when I was 13 my parents turned me into Mom 2.0 so my incubator could spend her days out shopping"

A few shots from my test run this evening with @gingerdraven.bsky.social It felt good to get back into the studio, but how wrecked I felt afterwards physically really told me where I’m at on the road to recovery.

oh my god is this why LLMs are containing such a rapid foothold in schools, because they're basically teaching kids to read the same way? "predicting" what the next word *should* be?

We're nearly a decade deep into politics driven by "vote-against". We The People want something to vote FOR. "Do you want (X) to win?" is not a policy position, it's a confession that the only alternative you're offering is "anti-(x) vibes".

Convincing you to read my novel by the first sentence. Share yours if you want. (Here's the opening of "Neptune's Brood".)

A team that isn't laid off immediately after release.

predator is a slasher movie and arnold schwarzenegger is the final girl

BTW if anyone in the Houston, TX area wants Mac SE and/or a G3 iMac for free, DM me and I'll put you in contact with the person with these, they're trying to save them from the dumpster.

when you need 6.022x10²³ avocados for the scientifically correct guacamole

This game is the gold standard of what I recently heard Gravis refer to as "legz-type games". The player camera is literally attached to Riddick's head on his player model, so when you turn his head turns, and then the body, and the camera moves appropriately. 10 stars. I've not seen it done better.

lol WHAT smh my head

I hate that an old comic strip about the social dynamics of elementary school-aged children is politically relevant

" when will you ever learn, Charlie Brown?"
