I am cautiously intrigued by Total War: Warhammer 40,000. Will want to see some gameplay before I start getting excited.

However, I am disappointed by the confirmed starting factions.

I "love" how the official instructions Microsoft gives to uninstall Copilot doesn't even work.

I had an appointment with a stylist yesterday and got to try on (and keep) a whole bunch of clothes. It was wonderful getting to feel pretty and have someone very enthusiastically saying why these clothes worked well for me. Not just that they looked good - but why they did. It was so helpful!

Two drawings of a mermaid named Sally.
1st image: a light-skinned, dark brown haired, blue-tailed mermaid is propping herself up on one are and blocking the light with her other hand. She says, "Do I have to get up, chat?"

2nd image: she is sitting down with her head sideways and being held by both hands. She is looking at her tail bent to the side in a way no human legs ever could. She is saying, "I get that my tail is super flexible, but how do my legs bend like that in there?"

I did not expect to be affirmed as a therian by her of all people today, but here we are I guess.

Verified non-Sharpie sniffer and therefore not human. Go me.

Cropped image of Xan (green rabbit) and Verse (purple fox) from Elancia Chronicles. Xan has a santa hat on, and Verse has a red nose and antlers. The pose is very suggestive, with Verse having a flirtatious look on her face - Xan looks mortified at being observed.

Christmas is a time to spend with your friends and family - or your very close friends, like Verse and Xan.

We'll leave them to share their festivities - why not read Elancia Chronicles until they're done?

Not dealing with bad faith arguments regarding the government ban on social media.

It is possible for two things to be true: social media is out of control and needs restrictions when it comes to abuse, especially around minors.

The government has handled this in an awful way.

The things I want to happen to those three would break all terms of service of this website.

It is possible for two things to be true - social media does need to be controlled in some way, and the way the government has handled this is utter garbage.

This new age verification thing is utter garbage. I need to verify my age on the mobile app, but not on the browser version.

Good work, Australian government. You've solved it.

New post: โ€œReview: Dragonโ€™s Soulโ€ https://giants-club.net/articles/review-dragons-soul/

This (mostly) cozy draconic fantasy hits high points of transformation, romanceโ€”and gathering the confidence to find your own place in the world.

I love how I can wear tighter-fitting shorts and other clothes now without any worries.

It's so freeing and still, five weeks later, it's still got me on the verge of tears because of how happy this is making me.

The first two episodes of The War Between the Land and the Sea have been genuinely really enjoyable.

Russell Tovey has been magnificent and the political intrigue has been gripping and tense.

Oh so many people kept bringing up that phrase and it needs to go back to literary theory where it belongs. It's used out of context so much now as a shield against bigotry.

There really shouldn't be, but it feels like it's baked in to a lot of places and I don't know what to do about it.

I hate that the local furry convention group chat has a real transphobia problem and a gleefully willing to support transphobic media franchises and shout down any dissent to that.

The more I go around clothes stores the more I realise I need someone who actually knows about fashion to help me!

My sad and disappointed 2 star review of The Rose Field, by Philip Pullman, which should have been my favourite book of the year.

Seeing all the awesome dealers den displays is when the sadness hits that I'm not at MFF - or realistically able to get to any of the incredible American furry conventions.

One year I'll make it back over there!

I've tabulated all 44 ballots that have come in so far!

Already some clear landslides, and some very competitive categories :))

I'm honestly really impressed, folks are doing a much better job with the down ballot categories than last year. The depth of field is ๐ŸคŒ

I need to compose my thoughts and write up a review later.
