Since I have some new followers, hello I am a mid forties technical professional that dabbles in arcane mysteries from time to time and enjoys cannabis for both pleasure and medicinally.

I am a cis, nominally heterosexual, white dude.

All are welcome to share my delusions of reality if desired.

“Largely ceremonial” does feel like the most honest way to talk about the U.S. Congress in 2025

Carl Quintanilla @carlquintanilla.bsky.social · 28m

“.. Inside the White House, top advisers joke that they are ruling Congress with an “iron fist,” according to people who have heard the comments. Steve Bannon, the influential Trump ally, likened Congress to the Duma, the Russian assembly that is largely ceremonial.”

One of the most easiest signs to spot of a simplistic mind is an objection to blue hair and other alternative hair colors. I can see how all of modern society would be confusing to you if you cannot understand the most basic acts of self expression.

Starfleet Design 🖍🖖 @starfleetdesign.bsky.social · 8h

The Psygnosis logo was designed by fantasy and SF artist Roger Dean, who I learned also designed the Tetris logo (and many others).

This version with the owl face in the background may have been a fan composition, I'm not sure. I didn't see it on any official materials.

Vector recreation of the iconic Psygnosis logo.

Psygnosis were a video game developer and publisher from '84 to '99, perhaps most famous for Lemmings and WipeOut. At least to me. I was also fond of a mech shooter called Walker. [🧵]

Since Link is banned, his mutual aid Fridays have gone with him. This was one of the most altruistic things I’ve seen anyone on this site do.

In light of this, I’m gonna try to fill the gap.

Drop your mutual aid requests under this thread and I will repost them for as long as I can.

Bluesky was all “Everything being public is great, blocklists and labelers are fine, you can’t make an omelette without breaking eggs!” until their CEO got called out using that public information. User who called her out? Permabanned. Labeler lists? The maker ”voluntarily“ dismantled it. Mm-hmm

Depends on architecture and load and blah blah but it's possible in my mind. Might be worth pinging support about at least

If it is a deliberate shadowban technique it feels sloppy (but you know...)

In any case the USS Bimbo needs to be able to broadcast!

I guess it could be deliberate and they have done some stupidly stupid shit so who knows for sure

Oct 10th 2004 - Explorers open a tomb unveiling mankind's worst nightmare, the #AlienVsPredator franchise.

📽️📅 AVP: Alien vs. Predator (2004)

2 Screenshots from the movie "AVP: Alien vs. Predator" (2004): First, a close-up of a concerned woman with dark hair, wearing a red jacket, in a dimly lit environment, with the subtitles "What's today's date?" and "October 10." Second, a man with short dark hair, dressed warmly, is illuminated by a flashlight, looking intently at someone off-screen, with the subtitle "Someone opened this 100 years ago?"

Thank you to the kind soul who compiled all the late 80s Nescafé Gold Blend ads. Can’t stop thinking of them as Rupert Giles’ backstory. Absolutely riveting.

My partner texted me to say that tonight’s Carsie Blanton concert is postponed because Carsie was just released from Israeli prison. She was arrested while trying to get aid to Gaza with the Global Sumud Flotilla. I came here to find more info, and this is horrifying.
