cow tools daily @cowtoolsdaily.bsky.social · 22h

43 years ago today, readers the world over opened their newspapers and gazed upon cow tools for the first time. happy birthday cow tools. you look great.

The original Far Side Cow Tools Cartoon by Gary Larson. A cow stands on its hind legs behind a table, staring blankly at the viewer from behind its heavy brow ridge. On the table are four crudely made tools: a lump, a lump with an offset crooked handle, a long stick with hooked prongs at the end, and a crude handsaw with irregular teeth. In the background a barn sits on a hill. Caption reads, "Cow tools."

this is incredibly gross and dehumanizing

microsoft is already complicit in an overseas genocide. at the absolute minimum, if they let this use stand unchallenged, their endorsement of a racialized campaign of terror is clear as day

I rolled the next game that I'll be playing on stream tonight, and it looks like I'll be playing CrossCode next! This is a game I've heard so many good things about and I just hadn't gotten around to, and I know a few people who really wanted me to play it, so I'm looking forward to it!

there's a consistent trend with trans women getting they/them'd even when they don't use those pronouns, and nonbinary folks getting she/her'd or he/him'd based on perceived assigned birth gender. i will loudly correct you for myself or people around me, sorry not sorry

no, more creatures should do all of those things, reimagining / reinventing the self is a way more well adjusted way to deal with the world than "im so big and tough im the strongest ever i personally ended every war and my army guys will shoot all the protestors and immigrants"

yeah is it a newer Core Ultra? i saw they started baking Arc graphics hardware into those, which is a pretty big step

i heard those were pretty solid standalone budget cards. not breaking any records but good performance/price at a time when gpus are absurdly pricey

Say, if you were on the fence about picking up some books, next month is gonna be a hungry one! Ebooks are best so I don't have to shell out for shipping. Everything is already on sale for #furrybookmonth too!

i fundamentally hate the idea, but also this sort of thing would have just been done by installing a plugin containing executable code that runs in your browser's process space before, so sticking it behind a responsibly designed, browser-mediated interface is probably the least bad option

i really wish furries would use literally any other chat service, i dislike having the choice between "also use it" and "probably just never talk to some people or groups again"
