I vibe coded a simple free app that uses AI (nano banana) to let you easily generate and modify pixel art to create an emoji, & save the PNG: smolmoji.com.

(This app exists because on a discord I'm an admin on, someone wanted a custom emoji for successfully adulting, like doing the laundry, so...)

They make games and movies like they used to. So many of them. Same with books.

But the mechanisms you learned about them were totally gutted and changed to only amplify shit that's already popular.

It's still there! You're just mostly on your own to find it.

I vibe coded a simple app to generate alt text for photos & screenshots for posting online, and I've found it so handy for myself that I wanted to share it with others: alttexter.lovable.app

(And of course I used the app to generate the alt text for the pic on this post - dogfooding ftw!)

One of the strangest aspects of aging that they don't warn you about is watching as history gets rewritten right in front of your face and people 20 years younger than you confidently tell you about something you lived through and get it completely wrong.

Me: I play Stardew Valley to unwind, it’s a laid back, cozy video game.

Someone I used to work with, who is my age, just died of cancer. I hadn’t seen him in years… life is short.

Seeing some beautiful photos of aurorae tonight, so here's a reminder that other planets get them, too!

This is Saturn, with aurorae visible at both poles in this UV image from Hubble's Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph, taken in October 1997 when the planet was 1.3 billion km away.

One thing people kind of tell you, but not really, about middle age:

One day you'll be like "oh [thing] looks fun but people will think I'm a loser" about a thing

And then you'll say. Wait a second.

Fuck 'em

virtue signalling is good actually
Performative decency is actually *so* important for this reason.

It tricks the 10% of ghouls into thinking that there are only 1% of ghouls.

And it makes the 30% of people that don't care one way or another follow the mostly decent crowd

The lesson here is have good principles and stand on them. Stand for something that isn't power!

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

this genuinely feels like a moment history books will look back on where the Democratic Party was forced to either fix its hearts or die

I think a thing we'll learn tonight is that people fucking hate what is going on and they will straight ticket vote against anyone involved in starving people while pillaging the country and kidnapping their neighbors. I don't think it matters at all who that person is.

My youngest recently turned 20, and for her bday she asked for a jokey cake that a 1 year old would like - and Peppa delivered.

Peppa is life, Peppa is love, Peppa is bacon.

The kids claim that 67 is so over already but what they don’t know is that older people are going to make it a zombie that will never die
