Science Comedy and other fun.
Never give in to TERFs, they'll never be happy and they'll never stop pushing things further right.
Cruelty is anhedonic. It rarely delivers the euphoria promised because, in the abstract, what feels righteous and joyful inevitably reveals itself to be sordid and small. Then it's "No not like that". "No not enough". "No the real battle, the forever war to make this feel good starts now". Forever.
Note how these awful people are getting exactly the exclusions of children that they demanded and *that still isn’t enough for them*: they demand everyone be delighted about it and kiss their arses for being brilliant.

Answering @funranium.bsky.social @aotearoabadger.bsky.social and @atherton.bsky.social, AI slop is Tzeentch, endless falsity tormenting you with the knowledge that truth was taken and twisted to make this mess, and the curse of making you doubt all you see forever whether it's from TzAIntch or not.

Did you love DUSKERS? Would you like DUSKERS but faster and sharper and more replayable and also it's ALIENS! No there isn't a question mark at the end of that, that can't be a question, go play XENOPURGE!
free demo!
(then buy it like I did!)

LAVENDER JACK HARDCOPY! I went from knowing this existed to pre-ordering in 20 seconds, because the webcomic is brilliant and I want to own it and I want my kid to find it and start reading it too
Just showed up in the mail: a proof copy of @darkhorse.com's physical collection of LAVENDER JACK VOLUME 1! I sort of can't believe how good it looks. It's HEFTY, too. They tell me FOC is Monday so if you haven't preordered yet I highly encourage it: www.darkhorse.com/books/3016-7...

Parent of a brilliant autistic kid and we cycle a lot, grateful to the great Pivot to AI for highlighting this vital graphic design work

"assuming no more than a year of university-level calculus" GOD I love science books! Not ironically! I love a world where these views exist and are supported to share with the world!

I saw a comic called GANGSTERS VERSUS NAZIS, then I saw a bonus called I TOOK A HAMMER TO HELL, and you *know* I immediately threw money at them
Guys, Only a couple of weeks left to pick up a copy of Gangsters Versus Nazis #3 (and you can catch up if you've missed the first two) by the amazing @captainitaly.bsky.social and Me.
All shares and hearts are greatly appreciated, so please help spread the word!

watching A Chinese Ghost Story, made in 1987 with A Bit of Cash the director was able to get, and the practical effects are still gloriously, magnificently better than endless CGI. Not even AI, but those oceans of endlessly bland CGI before that.

I remember when those "how to draw anime" books were hilariously worse than the vast majority of anime you'd see advertised, but that's no longer true, and the books haven't gotten better.

Thinking of @funranium.bsky.social when I realise the Dining Philosophers problem is another case of polite society ignoring the obvious solution of cannibalism

Making an account on a calculator website and their verification mail has no link, you have to type in the numbers, and I really appreciate their commitment to the bit.

Exactly why I'll never free-to-play.
The reason to play a game should be "IT'S FUN!" not "your chance of maybe getting a variant picture of one character is slightly higher than normal!"

There's a new Predator movie out so it's as good a time as any to say that, if I was given the opportunity to add an addition to any franchise, I'd have the Predator land in Glasgow in the 80s during an Old Firm fixture.

Taxing is the *first* thing we could do to private jets, if they reject that we can proceed to the better options.

Reading people saying "the problem with solar is it generates so much power we can't charge money for it" and my friends, please, step back a bit and see where the real problem in that sentence is.
So capitalist that FREE ENERGY is a negative.

Pretty funny how China giving other countries an option that isn't US bullying is presented as an insidious attack on The West (TM)

Lads, lads, lads, the number of shows about "exhausted piece-of-shit looking middle-aged white guy ACTUALLY badass beats up all his annoyances" is getting a bit embarrassing.

I'm just saying if you like Street Fighter 6 Modern controls they already made a game for you called Killer Instinct. Three hundred hit combos with a single button press!
