Minecraft is a whole level of parental Hell unto itself.
I cannot count the number of hours I've lost figuring out login issues. This is compounded by playing on non-Microsoft devices that have their own login and permission layers on top of it all.

I'd much rather have music recommendation engines based on "a person in this band was also in that other band you like" and "these folk opened for that band once" than whatever fuckery goes into current music app algorithms.

Geggy Tah popped on during my drive into work this morning. Their music is delightful, weird and poppy for its time. I've loved it ever since middle school and you should enjoy it too.

Everything I've read about the Lego Smart Bricks make it sound a lot more fun for adult collectors who aren't comfortable doing voices and making sound effects, whereas kids love doing that. It's part of the core of imaginative play that Lego facilitates.

Santa as we know him today — sleigh riding, gift-giving, rotund and white bearded with his distinctive red suit — only began to properly take shape early 20th century. What did he look like before this? Find out in our "Pictorial History of Santa Claus" publicdomainreview.org/collection/a...

My kiddo is learning the Gravity Falls theme song on guitar this week. This prompted a quick chat with his Uncle Scooter, my favorite music nerd. He reminded me that Brad Breeck was in The Mae-Shi, who put out this delightful banger, Run to Your Grave. Give it a listen:

Hey JD, they are not KIDS. These people are full-grown adults. Adults vying for political power. Adults who will turn their vile beliefs into policy if they ever get the kind of control they so desperately want.

Rainy days are perfect for enjoying a damn fine cup of coffee.
Also, there’s a sale going on in my shop. You should probably treat yourself to a wicked cool new t-shirt.

This looks like something I would have designed in 5th grade after buying my first Punisher comic. Why are there so many man-babies throughout the highest levels of our government?

Funny that @moreperfectunion.bsky.social came out with this. We were just discussing how terrible tech-centric learning is for our son. We’ve seen this directly since he entered middle school and started a curriculum the revolves around doing everything on a Chromebook.

I have never met anyone in real life who is 1/10th as concerned about trans people existing in public spaces as the media and politicians are. Most people, and I mean this in the most complimentary way possible, truly don't give a shit. You learn someone's pronouns and you go on with your life.
