Just wait until you see his second phase!

Happy vernal equinox to everyone in the Northern Hemisphere. In addition to the ushering in of a new season, equinoxes are the only time when both the north and south poles are lit by sunshine at the same time.

There are three technology certainties in this world: 1. if it has a CPU and a display, Doom can be ported to it 2. if a display has a binary state (on/off, black/white), Bad Apple can be displayed on it 3. if a 3D game has humans and is moddable, CJ from San Andreas will be modded into it

Ah, rainy weekends. Nothing like lying in bed listening to yourself breathe for several hours.

British PM Starmer said he’s “ready and willing” to send UK troops to Ukraine as part of a peace deal to prevent future Russian invasions. He warned, “The end of Russia’s war… cannot merely become a temporary pause before Putin attacks again.” ground.news/article/uk-p...

RIP Chris Moore (June 1, 1947 - Feb 7, 2025)

On this day, the 10th of February 1825, a letter from Gideon Mantell was put before the Royal Society. We became aware of the large and iconic Early Cretaceous herbivorous dinosaur ‘Iguanodon’. So happy 200th birthday Iguanodon. Probably the best dinosaur in the world.

It occurs to me that I go to the local movie theater like maybe three times a year and I'd still be outraged if it shut down.
