Postin nettipalvelu on vetänyt itsensä oikein kunnolla solmuun. Nyt meillä on maassa kaksi paskalafkaa vastuussa pakettien kulusta, Matkahuolto ja Posti. Noinkohan on näilläkään neroilla nettisysteemit enää ihmisen älyllä tehtyjä? Yksityinen asiakas on ainakin kaikille vähäpätöinen sivuseikka. 😠

The world does not make sense if you expect it to be rational or functional. Its building components are the egos of fragile men insecure in their masculinity and authority. Immature scared boys hiding under the frames of big burly men.

This dynamic of course makes sense in terms of power hierarchy. Forcing workers to sell themselves forces them to subject them to the whims of employers. It diminishes their power. But a sex worker, deemed the lowest of the low, appears to have power over even the most dominant. How scandalous!

Do you ever think about how warped it is that our civilization managed to not only normalize prostituting yourself, but making selling your body to earn sustenance not just a virtue but a necessity! And yet this did not of course make prostitutes more accepted, protected or even understood.

Time makes monsters of us all

So strive to be the kindest monster you can imagine

Tube-trunked Palorchestes! :D

4 panel comic featuring a man and woman staring at the horizon. Panel 1. Man: I still think you're being alarmist. Panel 2. Man: Sure, he started WW3. But he hasn't launched one nuke yet. Panel 3. (Bright flash) Panel 4. Man: I mean more than one nuke. A small one. Woman: Quiet piggy.

Something I had to get off my chest.

Yes, that sounds like the SpecEvo/SpecZoo community all right. Trying to pick everything apart is an instinctual behavior for most SpecZoo artists, you have to learn to ignore about 90% of it. It's ultimately just a sign they care.

Matkahuolto, they're shit! Not the shit. Just shit.

If you live in Finland and want a package delivered, never ever use Matkahuolto, those greedy arrogant negligent pieces of kakke. Pick any other option, even if it's literally a peg-legged elderly man carrying the package by foot across a distance of 300 km.

Stay far away. They suuuuuuck.

Not being allowed to be yourself because straight-identifying men don't like the idea of being aroused by your body describes FAR too large a portion of humanity.

And, to be clear, it should not be the case for anyone.

What's the genre that's like cosmic horror except when the protagonists discover the terrible forbidden truth it's that everything is really stupid and everything's run by a handful of depraved lunatics?

Is it really just called "news"?

I can't believe I've missed this thread. Scratch that, I totally can. I've barely used most social media since the AIpocalypse began.

I'm basically a SpecEvo veteran these days. As in I've been badly injured and can no longer fight in the SpecZoo trenches. But I still try to make things.

It's the secret to getting people to use a platform against their will: you only need a handful of people far enough from each other who'll use no other online platform, and suddenly it's a choice between losing a friend or ridding yourself of the general toxicity of an enshittified app.

Swan Lake on black and white television. Or film. Black and White something. It's ballet anyway.

People of the old Soviet realm, how close do you suppose we are to US experiencing a Swan Lake event?

I assume as long as Rhabdodon remains an ornithopod this will all be fine, right? This is fine. It's going to be fine.

At least once a month my dad asks me to check a warning from the antivirus app scaremongering about a supposed security issue, which proves to be an attempt to get him to install a free trial of some add-on that'll start leeching money off his bank account once he forgets to cancel it. *sigh*

Facebook support: Pyyntöäsi ei voitu käsitellä. Yritä myöhemmin uudelleen.

Is this FB's future? They took my reacting privileges after liked a couple of posts about Trump's latest embarrassment. I tried to appeal since they gave me the option. The result: "we can't process your request right now. Try again later".

The most feeble form of censorship I've ever seen.

Forget the other film, where can I watch this one?

Where is that armadillo lizard figure from? I'd love one of those if they are still on the market.

I wish amphibian figures were more common. I guess there's always been something of an anti-toad sentiment in the West, even before cane toads became a problem, but I'd still appreciate one good figure of one.

I've been out of the loop for too long and find myself needing trustworthy sources on Mesozoic and Paleozoic plantlife. Have any of the many paleo peeps on BSky published fully illustrated paleobotanical guides in the last few years? Is there a Kickstarter or somethin I could help fund? Anything?

Stegosaurus stenops, an exploration of musculature, texture and color, based directly on Scott Hartman's skeletal.

I'm reposting my 6 years old piece of Stegosaurus stenops in conjunction to the quickly thrown together scale image of FHPR 1095, because a lot of people have gotten used to oversized depictions of Stegosaurus - in terms of previously known material.

Giant stegosaurid FHPR 1095 (in black, with femur shown in white) shown in scale with Brontosaurus excelsus (darker grey) and Camarasaurus lentus (lighter gray), and of course the obligatory human, Beach Chad. The line = 1 m.

Oh Lawd he comin'!

This may be an overestimate of the size of FHPR 1095 but it seems safe to say it was a big 'un.

Silhouettes of Camarasaurus lentus, Brontosaurus excelsus and Stegosaurus stenops are from Scott Hartman's skeletals (www.skeletaldrawing.com)

The 80s were a simpler time: no pronouns, no woke, just Man hanging out with his musclebound friends wearing mostly furry underpants.

I can't believe the Trump admin rejected this design for the Board of Peace logo, even though it's clearly far more democratic! 😠
