If you're dead in the morgue because your physicians fucked up and you were afraid to question them, they still get to go home at night. There will be no consequences for them. They don't care about you, no matter how "nice" they are. It's a business transaction: fee for service. Treat it like one.

… but sometimes things get very weird very quickly.

Yeah, my socmedia has been very different since The Fame. With a hundred people it didn’t matter much I you posted cos they were folk I knew and things that escaped were rare. When you have to post to 15, 25, 70k people the culture of a place *really* matters. And mostly it’s awesome…

I’ve heard that said similarly as “there’s nothing as inexpensive as what you already own”

What happened here was three times worse on mastodon too for the same image.

it's FUCKED

the other day @nanoraptor.danamania.com posted one of her amazing and weird photoshops and like a dozen dipshits accused her of posting AI slop

what are we doing here folks

ahahhahahahahah i work in print yes yes yes

What's that one bit of advice you'll tell anyone at the slightest hint that it's warranted. The thing you learned, the thing you believe so strongly you can't shaddup about it, the thing you have such deep experience in that you truly know your experience is meaningful and helpful most of the time.

Three pillows with slogans on them. The centremost, LIVE LAUGH LOVE. To the right, ABORT, RETRY, FAIL? and to the left poking out from behind the others, GURU MEDITATION ERROR.

It just ain’t right

I am made of 3% me and 97% pain tonight.

Did I meet a genie and make some kind of cursed wish that I can no longer remember? It feels like I did.

A packet of dubbelzout twisties in black grey and green packaging.

This is for the six people who will instantly either recoil or look on with perverted interest.

Oh you’re definitely coming out of those sessions better than when you went in.

No cheating. Your last saved celebrity photo is your therapist. Who is it?

Look I adore him and all but this is Cleon XXIV so I'm pretty much completely fucked. He'd either end me within minutes of therapy starting with a particle beam to the head, or shag me. Either way, would be dead.

The custom version of At-Ease was a nice touch for a simple and nostalgic on-screen menu.

No, I don’t think that’s right; studies have in fact found that the optimal keyboard design is one where every keystroke mimics the tactile sensation of pressing a human tongue

A photo of an Apple keyboard with the alphabet keys changed depending on the frequency of letters in English in this case. the E, A, D, T, I, O, L and N keys are quite large, while Q, X, Z, K, and V are quite small.

Studies have found the most logical and fastest keyboard layout is not between key orders like qwerty and dvorak, but one that prioritises the size of keys depending on the frequency of those letters in the language being typed, regardless of the ordering.

Just remembered a dream where my boss came to ask advice about something to do with printing and cutting a bunch of material except he was baron harkonnen and his incessant hovering just started getting to me.

(I like the fellow very much irl)

Oh yes, all the time. I live for it.

This place is lucky I’m an antisocial introvert. Or I’m lucky I am, or both.

personally the hair keyboard is worse.
maybe not at first, but it continues to exist as a physical object that's jumpscared me in my storage unit more than once

Now I think more about it - if I find a space that’s completely cishet I’m more likely to think “what the hell did you all do to the queer folk?!” before I wonder why queer folk don’t like whatever the subject is.

‘Cos gods my experience in the classic australian car scene is fucking rough.

...*sudden realisation*.

shit.

ok look yes for some of us the majority of our computing is now retrocomputing... :D

ooooh that gives me the BEST idea! THANK YOU!!!!

What's the queerest not-specifically-queer space you know of?

To me, retrocomputing is *surprisingly* trans.

a damascus blade made of alternating ripples of high carbon steel and estrogen. i have heard rumours that no matter how it is used it is the knife that bleeds.
