M O N D A Y FIND THE STRENGTH TO BE MORE INSANE THAN THIS WORLD

learning about morris the cat today

i’m actually generally open to commissions atm, both in CG, sound, design, motion graphics and illustration! DM for requests ^^

all americans know is

I figured it out. I downloaded a 10 minute loop of cafe noise from mynoise.net and SoundAura to play it f-droid.org/en/packages/... . Now I can listen to podcasts and babbling simultaneously. Very frustrating. Hopefully this improves my ability to follow conversations in loud spaces!

I’m taking commissions at Emerald City Comic Con next week! An 11x17 black and white like this Catwoman is $150.

WE JUST GOT DOGE’D no funding for this year. We have to cancel the program and email 450 applicants there will be no REU program in physics at MSU. First time in 20+ years. I’m fucking livid, y’all.

I'm more frequently seeing replies to blocked bsky accounts that I can't view even when I'm not logged in. Are these essentially private accounts? What's the deal

What was on The Sci-Fi Channel exactly 30 years ago? Why, it was this episode of "The New Alfred Hitchcock Presents", of course! www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTkx...

"The Philadelphia School District has indicated it will ignore a rule directing schools to ban transgender athletes from participating in sports that match their gender identities." share.inquirer.com/ppANmB [gift link]

This is the real point of TC's video about algorithmically tailored content and it missed me. Broadcast TV has/had a relatively small selection of options made for a broad audience, while YouTube has an enormous selection but you only see the fraction served to you. It becomes an echo chamber.

you should check out this game! a Reel fun fishing roguelite by heather flowers with a sick theme song by @visager.bsky.social that I got to sing on!! i am having fun with it even thought it means listening to my own voice on repeat store.steampowered.com/app/3000120/...

Goosebump producing news this week out of Oregon Health and Science University in the diagnosis of pancreatic CA. They developed a groundbreaking blood test, called PAC-MANN. This new test can find pancreatic cancer in just 45 minutes, even in its earliest stages.

If you are a cis person *please* take 2 minutes to do this. Trans people with non-updated gender markers, historical gender marker changes, and X markers are terrified to travel right now; rolling back this policy would mean a lot.

Incredible news! More hospitals have returned to offering gender affirming care after Trump's executive order was blocked. Moments after publishing our story on hospitals returning, Childrens National DC announced a return to care. And JUST now, Colorado Children's is back to giving care! AMAZING

NEW: It's the Elon Musk paradox: On X he's a budget-cutting warrior leading a noble Trump-approved battle against the Deep State bureaucracy. But to the WH, increasingly besieged in court, he's a run-of-the-mill adviser with no decision-making power. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

Major news! A court in Montana has just declared SB458, a bill that "defines sex" in a way that ends the legal recognition of transgender people in Montana, as facially unconstitutional. This is the first time a bill defining sex has been ruled on! Huge win for trans people in MT!

Beating big publishers at their own game by making an AI that plays and enjoys videogames for me. Your move, fat cats

Is there an application that adds background chatter, like cafe noise, to podcasts? Or is this something I have to make myself? I want to start un-doing the damage I've done over the years to my cocktail party hearing.

hello cis friends this is what people mean by trans genocide if a type of person does not officially exist, then any harm against them cannot be measured or reported this headline change isn't even being caused by an executive order it's simply the NYT editors deciding we don't deserve to exist

thinking about the old wallpapers gallery from overclocked.org

I'm getting pretty sick of all this

Do you ever look at someone's window from the street and imagine how much cooler their home is than yours?
