"We do not see others as they are. We see them as we are."

I mean, I cheered like a lunatic for the US Women's Hockey team in the Gold Medal game, but in other contexts....

This is not just cursed, its monstrous. The digital resurrection of a historian who died in January of this year, all so Grammarly can get some more clicks and engagement from students and/or scholars and/or others.

It feels so wrong on so many levels, these ghosts enslaved to AI forever

I didn’t know Microslop was a thing until I saw headlines about Microsoft trying to ban Microslop on its Discord. Now I shall say Microslop a lot. That’s how it works.

It’s good when Microsoft, a company that likes genocide and environmental destruction, doesn’t like things.

U.S. Troops Were Told Iran War Is for “Armageddon,” Return of Jesus Advocacy group reports commanders giving similar messages at more than 30 installations in every branch of the military

Deeply, deeply disturbing:

"U.S. Troops Were Told Iran War Is for “Armageddon,” Return of Jesus. Advocacy group reports commanders giving similar messages at more than 30 installations in every branch of the military."

Maybe if Platner wins he goes Fetterman, but that really isn't the issue. I don't care if he gets up there and votes reliable party line. He's still a damned nazi and if you aren't willing to draw a hard moral line at that, if you make excuses and whataboutisms for it, you've fallen into the abyss.

Will they give me the power to generate and manipulate magnetic fields to defend an anti-science population that hates and fears me?

I'm wondering why people thought Republicans were going to ignore all this

"slap you with" == "freeze a copy in an icicle and shank you with"

For example, ones who enjoy performative transgressiveness (positive).

In my experience, certain sorts of them, yes.

As a preaching-to-the-choir aside; this is a great outline of why Bruen is insane. Centuries-dead legislators, many of whom owned and sold slaves, can hold modern legislatures similarly in bondage forever? Modern legislatures aren't actually law-making bodies, but simply... what, under this rubric?

Mom, come pick me up, the best lack all conviction and the worst are full of passionate intensity.

AA/AD, my bad.

Thus, the F-22 and F-35.

The F-15 airframe was never ever going to be stealthy. It's _fantastic_ against non-peer competitors, but it has a radar cross-section the size of Jupiter and would get swatted out of the sky in peer competitor AA/AE environments.

Mom has strong "Bill Paxton in Near Dark" energy here.

"vampires" seems likely.

A collab with @noctemtenebris.bsky.social, where I turned one of their art pieces into pixel art and animated it. It was a fun experiment. XD

I was radicalized by a kind elderly Presbyterian minister in a brightly colored cardigan who played with puppets and told me that people could like me exactly as I am and that everyone is different and that's great and we should like them exactly as THEY are.

They liked it.

I swear I read it with this sense of, "Isn't the point of Resident Evil to be scary? That's what 'survival horror' is? Why is a super-guy running being super and unconcerned about zombie bites?" But I know I'm not the target audience, having bounced off PSX RE in under ten minutes.

You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

I see you.

Fair.

You're aware that holidays, Jewish or otherwise, don't move around in response to political contexts, right? One might even suggest that one of the purposes of holidays is to provide a chance to step back and reflect on the circumstances we find ourselves in from a more detached perspective?

I am a reactionary at heart and will never renounce my love, the VF-1S.

@coyoteandcrow.bsky.social sent me a whole new hardback after mine failed to arrive! All that and the book is great! A+, would support again.

Oh yes. Yes.
