Zohran Mamdani doesn’t make me, an American Jew, feel unsafe.

Having the Coast Guard, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, decide that a swastika isn’t really a symbol of hate? That makes me, an American Jew, feel pretty damn unsafe.

you deserve better than to have a gut wrenching feeling like you've done something horribly wrong all the time.

Thanks, hamburger.

People who hate winter and hate the cold are exhibiting motherless behavior. nobody taught you how to layer your clothing? A skill issue! You were not destined to survive the winter! You shame your ancestors, buy a thermal knit shirt and some real wool!!!

Looks like LLMs are *very* vulnerable to attack via poetic allusion: "curated poetic prompts yielded high attack-success rates (ASR), with some providers exceeding 90% ..."

Oh you're saying I can use a riddle to confound the inscrutable creature who wants to drain my life force?

The reason I had Harvey Birdman in my mind today was because of Toby Huss' performance as Shado the Brain Thief.

Rather than living by a literal line from a joke book (which is all "Hanlon's Razor" actually is) if you want a pat line to spout maybe consider the basic principle of systems thinking and cybernetics -- "the purpose of a system is what it does".

i love writing about crypto crime because these dudes do this constantly

Geologists: Mount Rainier Will Not Erupt During Your Lifetime, with Possible Exception of Very End Washington state geologists confirmed today that, according to their most recent research study, Mount Rainier definitely won’t erupt at any point during your lifetime, with the possible exception …

Don't worry!

Adds something to my bookmarks knowing full well that I will never see it again

I'm not back but I heard people were asking so I'll pop by. had a rough past couple years. been to like nine funerals in 2025. every time I'd recover from one, someone else would die unexpectedly. hug your friends and family. and I had to put my 18-year-old dog down just this Sunday. RIP, Phoebe.

kids need human rights

i think we should know more about meat and bread than wars and kings personally

Sometimes I hate myself for the kind of gameplay ideas I have, coding this tumbling block physics with the screws was SOO hard

But I'm happy that the block puzzles are getting more varied and better integrated with the platforming, pacing and all

(game is ABYSS X ZERO, btw)

Dennis Hopper as Frank Booth in the movie Blue Velvet. He’s holding a clear plastic medical mask over his face and inhaling some sort of gaseous intoxicant. No one in the movie ever actually says what it is. When he’s done with this huff he’ll tell you that JD Vance sounds statesmanlike.

It’s important to keep in mind that every political reporter is huffing gas out of their jacket all day like Frank Booth

"Bird seed" is actually somewhat of a misnomer, as anyone can eat the seed.

A wide true color photo of the pale banded surface of Jupiter, which fills the bottom half of the frame. A black circle is visible where Io (unseen) casts a shadow.

This picture of Io's shadow by Juno is excellent.

authors you have the chance to do the funniest thing right now

FNAF/Scott Cawthon should not be supported in any way.

Don't buy/stream his games, give money to the franchise, watch the movies, etc.

He uses his gains FROM FNAF to support harmful legislature and candidates on the right.

Which is bad, yes? Stop supporting him. He deserves nothing.

When I was homeless in 2019, the Salvation Army shelter refused to give me a bed (even though they were available), because I was on immunosuppressant meds and they didn’t want to be responsible or liable if I got more sick or died on premises. They’d rather I die on the street.

This is because Arrowhead are "waiting for the courts to decide what is fair use" per the article. They're ready and willing to jump on the slop train.

Generative AI is theft and i'm tired of people telling me I shouldn't care. They're so desperate to normalise it which is exactly why we shouldn't.

Game designers bring to life to Scotland's mysterious Picts Writers and archaeologists also worked on a new guide to a lost early medieval Scottish society.

A few of us designers have been privileged to follow along while @stoutstoat.co.uk chipped away at this project for the last few years.

It's something new. An interactive history book like the kind you'd maybe read as a kid, but with the combined powers of archaeology and game design.

Also, I gotta get me that no-joke right cheekbone they gave me! That thing could slice brisket!

The Washington State University Cougar Marching Band freakin' played Trogdor at their halftime show this weekend! And made ME! My husky head finally gets its due! 50 freakin' yards high man!
