Just a duck

one thing that's making me feel particularly insane lately is how there is no longer any limit to the amount of wrong you can be

Very occasionally you’ll still see someone around using the word “latinx” in good faith like the Island stranded American PoWs who didn’t know that WWII ended in 1969

part of my resentment towards LLMs is to do with them crowding out anything else we could be talking about. there are so many things I could be reading to get better at my craft but I'm presented with "you should actually get worse at it on purpose because nothing matters any more"

Dial-up Internet to be discontinued AOL routinely evaluates its products and services and has decided to discontinue Dial-up Internet. This service will no longer be available in AOL plans. As a result, on September 30, 2025 this service and the associated software, the AOL Dialer software and AOL Shield browser, which are optimized for older operating systems and dial-up internet connections, will be discontinued. This change will not affect any other benefits in your AOL plan, which you can access any time on your AOL plan dashboard. To manage or cancel your account, visit MyAccount.

So apparently we are within the last 60 days of dial-up AOL being a thing.

I bought a doodle from @grebcomics.bsky.social and I love it. 10/10 would recommend you purchase

A white bunny with floppy ears nibbles on fresh greens from a bowl on a colorful blanket.

mRNA vaccines are, without exaggeration, one of the greatest inventions in human history.

We basically hacked our immune systems. “Here’s the secret code for this new virus, prep to fight exactly that.” A promising avenue for addressing some cancers too.

And the US is throwing it away. For what?

House sitter trashed our hot tub.... Having to drain it and deep clean before we can use it again

Speaking as a fan of Venture Bros?

Boy, that is... a profoundly awful misread of the show.

Trump admin targets lawyer who attempted to halt his client’s deportation DOJ’s move comes after Trump directed the department to seek to sanction lawyers “who engage in frivolous, unreasonable, and vexatious litigation.”

EXCLUSIVE: Justice Dept carries out Trump directive by seeking 'substantial' financial penalty for lawyer who won court orders delaying client's deportation to Laos for two weeks. DOJ accuses attorney of misleading judges by invoking Alien Enemies Act www.politico.com/news/2025/08...

I'm way too excited for only connect but you should all be watching it right now

Also 8 out of 10 cats do countdown

Only connect is back!!!!

huzzah, got through therapy without a meltdown. admittedly, i'm on more edibles than is healthy, but this is a start

Just got the neuropsych report that declared me descheveled and wearing soiled clothing, and that my cognitive failure is because I don't have enough friends

So I guess that's another new diagnosis

No foreign fans will come for the World Cup or the Olympics and you gotta think that's part of Trump and Miller's plan to fuck Los Angeles. As an Angeleno, I'm fine with that shit not coming here but I know businesses have been banking on it.

One of the most irritating things about this whole "Well you'll get along if you don't talk politics" is of course I fucking will, I am a cishet white man with a Protestant background. They love me. They just want to harm literally everyone else in my entire fucking life.

The comments on the new video are very positive, but I do like this one hate comment, because it seems to imply YouTubers generally follow the footsteps of Socrates and that, for this reason, I’m not cut out for it

JK Rowling tweeting got a boycott of M&S, stretching facts to the breaking point, and making the world a worse place for absolutely everyone.

The employee asked the girl and her mother if they needed help shopping. That’s it. That’s all. The misinformation, the insinuations (because the facts are inconveniently benign) are EXACTLY what was done to lesbians in the 80s. This is the product of hate and fear, not reality.

Awkward, Google put out a blog in June about teenagers phoning up orgs and getting access to their databases by asking for access.. and yesterday updated it to say they also got owned by the same kids. https://cloud.google.com/blog/topics/threat-intelligence/voice-phishing-data-extortion

No one has ever fallen from such a height in my personal esteem to such unthinkable depths as Rowling.

"I'm going to add you to a blocklist for people who repost too much"

so you mean a blocklist for people who are cool? neat

An infograph meme quoting a moment from the movie "The Incredibles". There is black text that reads: Alright, listen closely. I'd like to help you with the ads, but I can't. I'd like to tell you to click on the gear icon and select "Report Playback Issue". But I can't. I also do not advise you to select anything related to how the advertisement is offensive or inappropriate; I wouldn't expect Twitch to do something about the ICE ads if they get flooded with enough reports. Below, there are images that are as follows: From left to right, top to bottom. Mr Incredible whispering to an old lady in an office building. A screenshot of Twitchs' Settings menu with "Report Playback Issue" highlighted. A close-up of Mr Incredible whispering. A screenshot of Twitchs' Report Playback Issue menu with a dropdown menu containing options.

The people we paid to house sit did last our house in chaos, never emptied the cat litter, and so there was cat shit so over the house.

Replenished the chinchillas water but not their food

The chicken water bowl was full of carrot peel?!

Trash covering the kitchen floor

I can never leave again
