Incoming message from the Grammy’s. Lady Gaga wants to know what the fuck you’re doing so close to the Neutral Zone.

This shit isn't a triumphant Reich installing their master plan, it's psychotic crackheads ripping the copper wiring out of the walls to try and find the Woke Machine that makes women not want to fuck them.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

I was very briefly excited by the notion that "The Day We Unveiled the Secret Rotation Illusion" might be a new song or album from the stoner rock band Clutch www.clutch.security/blog/the-day...

Why don't we also have Magic: the Hunting? And when will both Magic: the Hunting and Magic: the Gathering be replaced/supplemented by Magic: the Stable Agriculture in a Fixed Community With Entrenched Social Structures?

what fresh heaven is this?! excited to rediscover our people and introduce ourselves to you lovelies who haven't discovered the *magick* of our roguelike conference! behold, wonders: www.youtube.com/@roguelikece...

Went to get some Taco Bell. My usual order includes a couple bean burritos minus red sauce plus green sauce. This habit dates back to the early 90s Green sauce is no longer available. Thanks, Trump. #trumptookit

lol, a clip of a Tesla's vision system trying to understand a train labyrinth.zone/notice/Aq5V7...

Nice people are struggling over the revelations on Gaiman, and something I keep hearing is, 'His work had a big influence on how I shaped my own identity.' So here's something to remember: You did that. He didn't do it for you. 1/

Another GenX fave. Also, no, parents often did not, and they weren't particularly worried. If something bad happened, the cops would show up and tell them. For the record, I was usually in the arcade room of the local pizza place, playing Tempest and listening to "Tom Sawyer." youtu.be/niBhO3qGeGE

"Back in my day we didn't have all this autism." We didn't discover Antarctica until 1820 but that has always been there too.

Kinda wish bsky had spoiler tags or CWs, because I wanna post about the Wrath of Khan reference in #Warframe 1999 😅

Elon Musk is arguably the weirdest Mastodon instance sysop

I printed a Taco Bell hot sauce rolodex #3dprinting www.printables.com/model/343724...

Also I can’t believe The Man in the Wall manifested as a literal man in a wall Like, this is serious Stoner Rock concept album material #warframe warframe.fandom.com/wiki/The_Man...

I’m seeing a lot of folks digging into their cable hoards today to hook up new electronics. Have I ever shared my cable card catalog in my office? (okay, so there’s a few more things than cables in there, but…)

A thing I never thought about before: Star Trek? No Christmas episodes. No holidays at all, really, unless they're in-universe

This assertion that AI will only get better is a strange one to me because, let me ask a question. Did Facebook get better? Did Twitter get better? Did Social media get better?

Name a non-LOTR character who could resist the One Ring.

I went for a bike ride? In the rain? For fun?

Honestly, the Let's Encrypt folks don't get nearly enough credit for basically protecting the entire fucking internet, by making it absolute bog standard to encrypt everything. It happened so fast and so many people were skeptical.

Listening to The Vergecast Matter Holiday Spec-tacular podcast episode and it's got me wondering: There's all this talk about how complex and end-user unfriendly all the networking & automations are. So, like, why hasn't "Smart Home Installer" turned into a trade? www.theverge.com/2024/12/20/2...

If only hip-hop artists could have made this argument about sampling.. surely government & industry woulf have been like “but of course”

Can I still tell folks "y'all need Jesus" if I'm a pagan or an atheist?

Here you go: the #Superman trailer. Krypto, take us home. youtu.be/uhUht6vAsMY?...
