Shout out to the person I’ve never met in Japan who helped me trade over 50 Gimmighouls to get this dumb PTCGP collection done

In the last couple of years, Peru's government started labeling foods with high amounts of sugar, sodium, or fats with these black warning octagons. That's normally fine but it has also created this bizarre chase for foods to advertise themselves as "not having octagons" (e.g. the second photo)
Picture of a glass bottle of Inca Kola, Peru’s national soda, it’s a small clear glass bottle with a label for the soda that has a black health advisory octagon that says the soda has a high sugar content Picture of a bag of Inka Chips brand chifles (banana chips) proudly advertising that they don’t have any octagons

Misinformation is being spread about my household!!!
Screenshot of iOS text message where the messaged claims someone in my household didn’t vote in 2024 and reminding me to vote in the NYC mayoral election. I answered “Who? My cat? She is a one issue voter (whoever gives the most Churu)”

As you all probably know, I love to commission art whenever I can, I love when people make art and I absolutely despise all the AI slop that’s been happening everywhere. It only made sense that I commissioned a piece where I made that clear from @caitlinroseboyle.com
Illustration by Caitlin Rose Boyle where I am depicted in a jacket holding a bat and smashing in a robot with a screen for a head that reads “You’re absolutely right to dig into that” a phrase that many AI agents say when you question them. The bat has a “no sparkle emoji” logo on it and the sound effects THWAK and KRUNCH are coming from the hit. The background is a digital alleyway

I wanted to look up which Thomas Sankara quote @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social paraphrased on stage on Monday night, I was not disappointed
You cannot carry out fundamental change without a certain amount of madness. In this case, it comes from nonconformity, the courage to turn your back on the old formulas, the courage to invent the future. It took the madmen of yesterday for us to be able to act with extreme clarity today. I want to be one of those madmen. We must dare to invent the future. - Thomas Sankara

I really love this @kickstarterunited.org logo guy that @robdubbin.bsky.social made for the Starfriends Kickstarter! www.kickstarter.com/projects/bra...
Some Starfriends flanking a Kickstarter United logo with some matching eyes. The text below the image says “Kickstarter campaigns and labor unions are both about the power of collective action, when you think about it!”

Feels like the last person I would call tbh, I need a doctor or a nurse, not a precision marksman
