Purely work related but that nonsense is the sort of thing that drives me crazy especially when you make stuff Large +

This shit drives me nuts. Women's clothing just is the meme of we have 16 standards someone comes up with a new standard we have 17 standards isn't it.

discovered that Little Caesar’s has an Apple Watch app and it’s just this image that you can’t interact with in any way

I’ve spent a lot of time irl with Udon employees, not including Matt Moylan, but he is kinda the only one who is weird and insane like this. And it confuses me that he would post something like this when so many of their staff/artists who make the company what it is are openly LGBT/POC

just the head of Udon comics telling folks there's no DEI in Street Fighter lol

Why yes. I believe I do indeed want to be a yakuza pirate in Hawaii this weekend. Kinda perfect for my current mental state tbh.

Don’t let these fuckers go anywhere without getting booed. Fuck polls. Fuck podcasts. Just show up, in person, to wherever these cretins go and boo the shit out of them

I still can't get over how ruining our relationship with Canada never came up during the campaign but is apparently now a flagship issue for the WH because ???

These suggestions are terrible I swear.

Everything about the Ukraine situation is grim. But yes, this! It was only five years ago. In the fall of 2019 "the perfect phone call" and all that came with it felt like possibly the biggest presidential scandal in history. In the big picture now, it's a blip.

Of course

Scream this from the rooftops. Powerful men being certain that "if you're smart at one thing you must be smart at all of the things."

This part I've heard myself from employees, that their Teams calls are transcribed and keyword-searched, and that policies can change in near-real time in ways that make employees believe they're being spied upon. www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

New — Edward "Big Balls" Coristine of DOGE now has digital access to the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), an agency source has confirmed to me.

For those unaware, SAG-AFTRA is entering it's 7th straight month of striking interactive projects for enforceable AI rights. SAG-AFTRA contracts are protected by their legal staff--I can't afford a lawyer without the union. I am only working on projects signed to a SAG-AFTRA INTERIM AGREEMENT.

Latest manga pickup for the month

Klarna, the company that got so much press for dropping customer service and replacing them with AI, is now saying that they are now going to "become the best at offering a human to speak to." Great stuff!

This is such a waste of energy even as a research project for the cluster of GPUs for the model to the energy costs for such a low output. It's cool but it's too wasteful.

I won't lie I woke up in abject terror this morning over the state of the world

New Trump Kennedy Center cancels Pride Concert event and will instead feature "The Wizard of Oz in Concert." So much to unpack on so many levels, but this pretty much captures the current moment & is an ironic critique of everything that's going wrong. www.washingtonian.com/2025/02/18/k...

They should add a feature to Bluesky where if you see this image, you are propelled helplessly down the timeline with zero control over where it lands.

I posted a copy of the 3 minute version of my speech from yesterday (with citations) if anyone is interested. Feel free to steal from it if you want! (also, this is literally less than half of the Nazi shit they're currently pulling)

what the fuck do these people know about ATC? what the fuck are they going to do to it? this really truly was not broken - we needed MORE air traffic controllers but the DC crash was the biggest such crash since 2001 instead they're firing all the probationary employees and whatever this is

Caesar King as a gyaru

This is a program for teenagers with serious disabilities who are finishing high school and transitioning to their next steps in life. Trump just axed it, effective immediately, in the middle of the night, with no notice.

Massive, meaningful changes in governance done as a result of a ctrl-f for the word "transition." No one will ever believe how stupid this shit was.

Those little psychos will beg and plead when the damage is done that they were just following orders.

This is dumb but I don't think the guys working at DOGE understand whether Elon gets his way or we manage to salvage the US government they are criminals. And additionally they are easily discarded tools at the whims of a narcissist like Musk.

Look I think it's time for everyone to acknowledge Elon Musk is Public Enemy #1. His wealth and power preclude him from any measure of accountability and he needs to be stripped of his power and wealth for the sake of the US's national security.

“The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my fucking firing. I make $50k a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer.”

不对这招式是这么用的吗

I don't like to be political. I don't like to live through major historical events. But I can't bury my head in the sand either and it drives me nuts.

Today in "neither our media nor our political system is designed to deal with a far right authoritarian party" They are addicted to a model of journalism that is fundamentally unfit for the purpose of covering politics in our current age. This is entirely a choice. Others are readily available.

New: The Energy Department is seeking to bring back nuclear energy specialists after abruptly telling hundreds of workers that their jobs were eliminated, according to two people familiar with the matter
