Rebecca Heineman passed today.
She was a unique talent, to understate things. Anyone could see that in her long list of accomplishments.
But we are not just our catalogs of retail products. She was a force of nature, a light in the darkness.
This is an unimaginable sadness.

ICE is in Charlotte now. They were snatching people off the street today.
Apparently they are calling it "Operation Charlotte's Web." This is appropriate, because whenever you look at one of these motherfuckers, you can think "that's definitely some pig."

Realest thing I've ever read on the internet, honestly.
Growing up in a time when “selling out” was the most shameful thing you could do and then being forced to live through the 2020s feels like being kicked in the head by a horse every day

This is turning out to be a rough month for Rebecca. She has a GoFundMe for the ongoing medical expenses, for those that can chip in: gofund.me/6850175a3

Feeling just an absolute ton of burnout trying to get this 3.4.0 release out the damned door. Every bug still in the milestone feels like an uphill battle.

Saw a ton of movies while Olive was away at her school's fall camp: One Battle After Another (good!), The Smashing Machine (bad!), The Long Walk (okay), A Big Bold Beautiful Journey (loved more than I should have), and Good Boy (didn't love as much as I desperately wanted to).

I keep seeing these videos, and it's people with masks on, trying to snatch someone, and when there's any pushback at all, they literally flee. Neither cops nor military operate like this.
I guess I'm asking: is ICE actually this weak, or are these just dudes with masks trying to snatch people?

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

Something I wanted in SDL3 for a long time just landed; you can make the SDL window just take up the whole browser window in Emscripten now.
So instead of this:
icculus.org/~icculus/ems...
You can do this:
icculus.org/~icculus/ems...
Feels more friendly to browser games.

Come on y'all, I posted this on Bluesky instead of Twitter because I assumed all the homoerotic vampire fans migrated here. :P
Also it’s super-weird to me that Anne Rice wrote Interview, and then decided _Lestat_ is the one we should be cheering for over like 10 more books.
Is this a good place to drop out of this series, or should I read more?

So I reread Interview with the Vampire…my last reading was in 7th grade, and wow, I was clearly too young to understand the undertones in this book the first time around.
