My favorite moment from Chicago #standupforscience: Person: I wish these people were my neighbors! Me: We *are* your neighbors 🥲🥰

I get really tired of powerscalers who treat whether or not a character could win in a fight as a measure of whether or not they're interesting. I just saw someone say the Doctor from Dr. Who is a bad character because he can be threatened by zombies "and other b-tier trash."

My “you’re over 30” advice is hold onto the bannister. Stairs will kill you and not even look back

Listen to your mother, Cloud... I owe everything I have to MY mother's watchful eye... and swift hand. Oh... there's mother now. Watching me... what's that mother? Why I have a RIGHT to be here. It's soldier business. Mother, that Shinra Suit doesn't fit me anymore!

What are some shocking reversals in tech? E.g. Vinyl LPs now outselling CDs Nintendo moving back to cartridges

Absolutely not ✨

everyone's asking me if I'm here camped outside Best Buy for a Switch 2 and I keep having to explain that I'm here to preorder the LG 24" Front Control Built-In Stainless Steel Tub Dishwasher with 3rd Rack, Quadwash, and 48dba - Stainless Steel

I find it fascinating that stalemates in chess-like games have been: * A draw (e.g. modern chess) * A win for the player delivering stalemate (e.g. shogi) * A win for the stalemated player (various/historic incl India and England) * Illegal (various again) * Forced passed turns (janggi)

Since I'm mostly followed by SCP People here I'll promote the International Canon Contest I'm running, I'd like to encourage as many people as possible to participate. It's a team based contest intended to promote writing for canons from other branches! scp-wiki.wikidot.com/internationa...

Stephen did more prep for this than the entire Trump administration

I'm on Mastodon now as spicycrust.pizza/@Kufat (This is a new-ish instance for the SCP community that's currently in soft launch, but most of my posting isn't directly related to SCP so feel free to follow even if that's not among your interests.)

Can't say that I'm doing *well* but things seem to be leveling off and I'm still functional, so that's a bit of a relief. Still stressed as all hell, though.

This should be the easiest boycott ever and if you can’t even satisfy this baseline level of solidarity then you have no right to question why we are all now under the gun.

I'm not saying that the warranty on my body ran out on my 40th birthday, but I will say that there have been a lot more clicking and popping noises lately.

Still alive and kicking, just taking it easy on social media for the moment.

If you feel like being inspired by a big law firm, here's the opening to Sussman Godfrey's lawsuit against Trump and his executive order targeting the firm. It still is amazing other firms caved quickly to Trump's mob-like and unconstitutional shakedown. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Simpson Thatcher, you fucking cowards.

Dire wolves were not close relatives of gray wolves. They last shared a common ancestor more than 5 million years ago. What Colossal has done is make something new and slapped a dire wolf sticker on it, as if an organism equals a hypothetical genome.

wow look at all of these better alternatives to Adobe that exist ask me about Pixelart programs if interested in that aspect specifically because you *definitely* don't need PS for that, lol

Remember: all computing history is important and should be archived and studied, so we can understand the good ideas and mistakes of history. Except this button. This button should not have been archived and remembered.

ChatGPT consumes so much water and energy each week that it could power entire countries for YEARS and folk act like you told them to kill their selves cause you want them to write their own emails and not to steal art. 😂

Ask your doctor about Dinorex(tm)

“Honest to god, the next jester who asks me if they ‘sell Yerba Mate here?’ will rue the fucking day.”

Teen Vogue has shown more of a spine during this administration than a lot of legacy media terrified of losing their special chair in Bullshit Barbie’s Malibu Lying Room.

In high school I knew one person each that played Final Fantasy 11 and SOCOM II. Everyone else just assumed that God put that hole in the back of their PS2 to hide their drugs.

People are excited for Inzoi because 😱*GASP* new Sims-like BUT PLEASE DON'T SUPPORT IT, IT HEAVILY uses gen-AI, from AI generated 3D objects, to AI generated images (not just textures, but decorations and more), even the steam banner is AI If you are against AI, don't give this game your money!

I assure you, spam email, that I am not

society erred when we removed the computer from its honored place in the home and ushered it into every part of our profane world. we must rebuild the temple of the Computer Room

every service i have ever signed up for is emailing me about updates to their End User License Agreement, Terms of Service, or User Privacy Statement, which typically means something is going wrong in the world

#startrek Thinking about how Moriarty has a giant steampunk lever that made the whole ship shake, and also about how "giant steampunk lever that made the whole ship shake" sounds like something Mariner would say

"oh, the cat's just here in the kitchen supervising everything!" no he's not, does he even know the smoke point of sesame oil?

Every person on Bluesky should know: * Every post on Bluesky is PUBLIC forever * Every post on Bluesky is archived by ICE, NSA, and many other agencies * Even if you delete a post, it’s already been captured * Judges don’t care if you were “kidding” or being ironic www.404media.co/the-200-site...

And this, very very sadly, is the truth. @atrupar.com

can’t wait for all the brave, free-thinking comedy bros who were “pushing boundaries” with trans jokes to find some new material now that anti-trans hate is literally government policy. Any minute now. Should be happening…any second…right?
