all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.

Oh Rowan, you'll have to start streaming like your father to earn your keep. Or at least get a sponsorship with the food manufacturer.

The Bookshelf hasn’t collapsed! A fresh update only a few months late:

The State of the Bookshelf July-October 2025

Greetings, I turned 42 back in July, that still feels weird. I don’t know about you, but there’s always a part of you that still feels like you did back when you were 20 and still that awkward kid …

Check out a friend's shop, get some cool retro JP games. He's being kind and offering a discount code, use it if you want or just buy as-is without it. I've purchased in the past an Iron Chef game as a gift (yes that exists) and always try to share when the shop updates.

OK Bluesky friends. Use the code “BSTariffRefund” on checkout to save 15%. Let me explain.

So, since the new shipping restrictions and tariffs went into effect my sales have fallen off a cliff. And in the last 2 weeks I have received only a single order. (1/5)

Since PinkNews is run by a transphobic bad actor and has a habit of sloppy, sensationalist bullshit, I feel like I should clarify: he wants a complete withdrawal of federal funding for facilities that provide gender-affirming care. That's devastating, but different from a ban of that care in law

Trump threatens to shut down US government unless Democrats agree to ban all trans health care

Trump threatens to shut down US government unless all trans health care is banned

The US government's looming shutdown hinges on anti-trans measures after Donald Trump refused to speak to Democrats unless they were passed.

I know hidden trophies are something gamers like to unlock when they're a gold level one, but sir your health shouldn't be one of them.

I might have to add that to my library list. Always adding books friends have read.

Now more than ever sourcing second hand for costumes should become a part of the cosplay community. Even if you can't find what you're looking for, you may find things for others, or be able to rehome pieces you'll never wear again.
