It used to be that our anger was expressed on the picket line, in protests, in riots. Now, that anger is just diffused through a bit of huffing and puffing on social media.
If you're so angry, bottle that shit up, get the fuck off of social media, and weaponize it upon those deserving pigs.

For those going -- it's Sunday, not Saturday -- I want a full report! It's just down the street from me, but the Seahawk game is keeping me home that day. Otherwise, I'd be there.

This is a TEXTBOOK wedge ice storm.
Cold air locked in near the ground with rain falling above it means freezing rain for hours in parts of Georgia and the Carolinas.
Meteorologist @matthewcappucci.bsky.social is tracking this closely.

SciArtists? Andy needs you.
Cheeky request: are any illustrators specifically in the #SciArt field willing to share their standard contact with me? Mine is long overdue an update, and I’d like to keep in line with what everyone else is doing (strength in numbers etc) (1/2)

Setting up 2FA for everything I can identify as needing it.
Normally, I'd say it's an effort to keep out hackers in the wild, but mostly, I just want to make it harder for governments, particularly mine, to access my stuff.

I think the most insidious aspects of generative #AI and the like isn't the output or its methods for generating them, but the requirement that people suppress empathy in order to use the tools.

People at work are starting to use Gemini to "correct" other people's work and documentation, without understanding how insulting it is.

Man, I can't even have decent erotic dreams anymore. A woman kisses me on the neck and says join me in the shower. Okay, I need to find some underwear first. I miss out on the shower, she walks naked to the bed, and I just think I'm not worthy and wake up. WTF.

If I see one more news organization suggest that a Democrat being brave is somehow a template for the future, I'm gonna burst. People are ALWAYS supposed to be brave. Politicians are ALWAYS supposed to serve the people and their best interests. Clamoring over a blip of courage is gross.

StreamPlace is pretty slick. I was looking at it and the dashboard for streaming, and I like it. I've been thinking about streaming my basic journey to make a rudimentary game in godot, and this could be the place to do it. Check it out!
STREAMPLACE v0.9.1 is live now!!! Two big features:
1. Teleportation! This is Streamplace's take on "raiding" or "hosting". When you're wrapping up your stream, type /teleport user.example.com in chat and send your viewers over to someone else!
