Can confirm: Once saw my girlfriend being allegedly a user, and she hadn’t even heard of it until I saw the notification.

β€œOne of the saddest aspects of Tatjana Wood's death is that many who say they admire her work as a colorist are sharing screenshots of the bad recreation that DC has been using for decades, instead of the original (here also with an essential text omitted in the reissue)”

I am not going to defend the entirety of the Nonconformist tradition by any means, but at times you really feel the lack of politicians who can speak like they're the guest preacher at the Sedd Fawr in Bethesda Chapel

Problem with running an absolutely epic RQ session (both length and content) yesterday is that now I have NO walls between me and reality and everything provokes an emotional response that is exaggerated to the degree of pain. And what a day to have that response... bill paying, war, and atrocities.

I was upset about this yesterday and I'm still upset about this today but then I remembered that in the Soviet Union people longed for music that wasn't just propaganda approved so much that they created a cottage industry of smuggling in music and copying them onto records made from old x-rays

Netflix Backs Out of Bid for Warner Bros., Paving Way for an Ellison Takeover

The richest man owns X.

The second and third richest men control Google.

The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.

And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

See the problem here?

Slept eleven hours yesterday and 5 today, if that. It averages out I suppose.

In competitive authoritarianism (US right now) there's often a "loyal opposition" that's essential to the regime. They are so wedded to "decorum," they go along with rites & rituals that help regime prop up veneer of normalcy, undermining clear view of regimes actions & aims.

if you've never watched Letterkenny or Shoresy, this is a pretty good example of their basic house style (all of the characters standing still in one of the show's three sets, shouting fun word games at each other)

"Nearby Glasses" is a new app that tells you when someone is wearing smart glasses in your area.

I'm against adding a single new app, but this one might be necessary.

🚨NATURAL LANGUAGE, RIGID SCHEMA🚨

Seeing @explorersdesign.bsky.social (and others) run with the statblock-without-stats thing is so very gratifying.

I'm still really proud of this bit of design!

Four years ago I woke up at 5 am from distant explosions. I asked my boyfriend if he heard them too, he said he didn’t and I should go back to sleep. I tried to calm myself down, went on the internet, it was silent, no news or explanations.
