I have been rereading @slacktivistfred.bsky.social 's brilliant Left Behind blog series in an attempt to figure out what the *actual* fuck is going on with the evangelical right in the US, and I think I found the post that explains everything. This is it, this is why Trump succeeded with them.

I did the survey in January you cockwomble

I remember spending some of my Bat Mitzvah money on Ultima Underworld and it was a huge deal. It was somewhere in the $60-$75 range - about the same as a AAA game would be today, but in 1994 dollars.

One advantage to having 87 assorted screwdrivers - no user-hostile design can prevent me from removing panels I am supposed to pay someone $180/hr to remove. Muahahahaha.

I have come back to FFXIV after several years away and I am finding that I cannot at all distinguish gender in this aesthetic. This is great, everything is *so* sapphic.

Human interaction, creativity, love and affection - those aren't on the market, therefore they must be valueless. The ultimate end of faith in money.

I very seldom get the desire to go to college but finding out UMAss Amherst has an entire advanced building materials program was *tempting*

And for those who would like to participate in programming, here is the 4th Street Fantasy 2025 Panel Interest Form! Khaljit has panels, if you have interest. forms.gle/P6gY7teMdEPq...

Sleepy puppy.

late to noticing this terrific thread. Lydy got right to the point right away: the main institutional use case for generative AI is deflecting accountability

OH GOD THE WHIPPOORWILL

okay apparently we're all having Cubist Boob Weather for the forseeable future

And again for the morning crowd.

A little bounce to brighten your evening.

I got into the habit of painting a room of the house when my wife was visiting her folks. Then the in-laws moved next door, and... I haven't painted much since. Alex is literally *next door* overnight and guess what I'm doing? I don't know why I feel the need to be sneaky about it but...
