If you see this, repost with your model of positive masculinity.

Quote this with a book you read way too young that explains why you are the way you are.

I literally couldn't fall asleep last night because I was so excited about this new Hollow Knight any% NMG speedrun!!

A sub 31 is so nuts you have no idea. Lep is an incredible runner and I bet that by the end of this year (or when Silk Song comes out) he'll have broken the 30 minute barrier. GG!

Post a ship that's not Star Wars or Star Trek
A Shadow Vessel from Babylon 5, a dark, spiky, spider-like spaceship silhouetted against a colorful nebula and a bright star.

Star is being uncharacteristically calm this morning. She may be filled with shedim, but damn she's cute
A close-up shot of a white cat with tan and black patches sleeping on its side on a quilted blanket with blue, black, and green patterns. The cat's face is visible, with its eyes closed, nose facing the camera, and paws tucked under its chin. The cat's fur is short and soft-looking. The background is slightly blurred.

Side profile of a serval cat with black spots on its tan coat, walking on dry grass with green grass in the background. This image is boarded with white and has text at the bottom that says "all cats are fueled by autism in their own unique way."

Okay, yeah sure. Somehow I don't believe this.
A blog post from Google: "Feb 12, 2025 Clarifying some changes we made in Calendar. We've received some questions about the holidays and moments that are displayed in Google Calendar. We want to clarify that we made this change last year, globally. Some years ago, the Calendar team started manually adding a broader set of moments in a wide number of countries around the world -- things like cultural celebrations, teachers days and many more. We got feedback that many other events and countries were in missing, and it just wasn't feasible to put hundreds of moments in everyone's calendars -- so in mid-2024 we made the decision to simplify and show only public holidays and national observances from timeanddate.com. Contrary to some of the comments on social media, this was not something we did just this year. Some important things to note: * Showing public holidays and national observances, rather than a broader set of moments, is consistent with other major online calendar providers. Google Calendar is also customizable, so users can more easily add important moments to their calendar. * As a company, we continue to celebrate and promote a variety of cultural moments across our products, visible to people everywhere -- as you saw in the last few weeks with Black History Month and Lunar New Year."

Just a little SpIn reading to get me back to an even keel

Baby jail and a baby

A calico cat curls up on a soft pillow, paws covering her face, with a peaceful expression. Sunlight filters through a window behind her, creating a warm and cozy atmosphere.

A comrade shared this with me and I thought I'd share it too.
