it makes me feel nuts that none of the discussion of age-gating ever grapples with the fact that teenagers are — famously! — horny. so the framing is always like "we're putting a railing along this cliffside" when the problem is more "we are trying to keep 1000 feral cats away from this wet food"

Essential ambiguously gay members of the upper class twit friend group:

1. The respectable but moody one with a dire secret he dares not name

2. The disreputable one whose misdeeds are never specified in the text

3. The one whose "poetical temperament" is treated as a source of low comedy

(thread) “Funny” story: in the lead-up to releasing the Kickstarter for Escape Velocity, we discussed whether or not to make a community Discord

We decided not to because modding it would take away time from dev work

When the KS started, we got messages asking for a Discord…

A comic with 2 panels #1: A young person dramatically crying and standing with hands on a desk, yelling "OMG!!! WHY ARE ONLINE SPACES ALL GETTING ENSHITTIFIED?! WE'RE SO COOKED! WHERE ELSE CAN WE GO?!?!" with a dumpster fire in the background with Instagram, Twitter, Tiktok and Netflix labels on it. #2: Derpkitty (a cartoon lion) in the Elrond (from Lord of the Rings movies) meme, going "I was there, Gandalf. I was there 3,000 years ago... We'll be okay.", behind, a small hill with numerous grave markers with the following names of previous social media or online networks like Napster, Webrings, Angelfire, Livejournal, AIM, Geocities, Java chatrooms, ICQ, Guestbooks, Snapchat, Bulletin Boards, MySpace, Yahoo! Messenger, Newsgroups, Usenet, IRC, Skype (MSN) etc.

Oddly appropriate today eh? No matter how many online spaces come up then die, we're still here.

A plate of Thai curry with rice. The rice is arranged on the top half of the plate, curry at the bottom. The curry can be seen to contain green beans, bamboo shoots and baby corn.

Today at #chezRat: Red Thai curry with fried tofu and vegetables, assembled from pantry and freezer supplies.

I'm moderately happy -- my tofu-frying skills need work, anchovies are just an acceptable substitute for fish sauce, and I once again find that I just prefer Cock. Curry paste, that is.

This seriously threw me out of balance all day, a bit like a miniature time change. =x.x=

Now, I'm rewarding myself for making it through the working day by having afternoon coffee.

Google maps telling me to get to Dublin Airport by leaving Dublin airport and walking back an hour and a half to it. #Spéirgorm

Google must have finally incorporated AI into Google Maps. How do I know?
It just told me I needed to leave now to be at Dublin Airport by 13:30 now to catch 9am Citylink that arrives in Dublin Airport at 11am. Then I should take the 11:45 Kells bus to Ballymun and walk back one hour to the airport

Had a technical hiccup in den in Saturday and one of my client commission info was erased so with the power of community I'm hoping to find them :x
Tanned canine/hyena with big green hair. Conbadge is simple renfaire medieval robes. Glasgow fur.

Hand-knitted bunny ear warmers would be such a lovely present, then. :D

Had my blood taken today for a health checkup.

Which, in and of itself, is not an issue. The issue is I have to go there on an empty stomach… which means I had to spend three hours of the day in a horrifying half-alive state before having my first coffee. =x.x=

Part 1 of the comic. The stoat (LeStoat) and marten (Martenelli) are wandering the snowy wasteland. The marten is still a wizard. Stoat: Questing has left me weary. I need to rest. Marten Wizard: There's an inn up ahead. Wait here while I go check with the innkeep. Panel 2: Marten Wizard: (Off screen) Ok you can come talk to the innkeep.

Part 2: The stoat approaches the "inn." It's just a tree stump. The innkeep looks suspiciously like the same marten but now dressed as an innkeep with whiskers combed into a handlebar mustache. Stoat: Erm... hi. Marten Innkeep: Hello, weary traveler. I suppose you're looking for a comfy bed. Wait here. I'll go prepare our comfiest, coziest, sexiest bed.

Part 3 of the comic: The marten innkeep calls to the stoat from off screen. "Ok, the bed is ready. Come on in." The stoat sees the bed. It's a big furry brown lump that looks familiar. The stoat flops onto the "bed." Stoat: "Ah, yes! This is the comfiest bed I've ever flopped on!"

Part 4 of comic: The stoat is curled up happily on the "bed." The bed (marten): *sniff* That's the nicest thing anyone's ever said to me.

Stoat Quest episode 9-ish.

TIL

A rat's happy place: smooshed under friends, with just one limb (or nose, or tail,…) visible to the outside. :D

Applause the leaking wifi

Dipper the Corgi approaches giant blacksmith, who is working on a sword. Dipper says a speech balloon that contains a picture of a sword, indicating he would like to get one. The blacksmith drops an enormous sword in front of Dipper. It is much, much too large for him. A sheepish Dipper says a speech balloon that has a picture of a tiny little sword in it. The blacksmith hands him a martini with one of those little cocktail swords in it.

A puma looking straight at the viewer, with sunlight on his face giving it sort of a mafioso look. Pspsps.

I brought a big print of this piece to EF and posted it to FA, so I guess you can take a good long look at this pretty puma, too ♥️

Verschneites Auto am Straßenrand. Jemand hat mit dem Finger „Du bist schön“ in den Schnee auf der Windschutzscheibe geschrieben.

Falls sich da noch jemand gerade drüber freut. 🙂

Das… trifft es erstaunlich gut. Ich fürchte, das werde ich in meinen Sprachgebrauch übernehmen müssen. ^^;

Post a ship that's not #StarTrek or #StarWars

A square marble tile with a shiny metal ball on it next to some papers and a coffee mug.

I'm buying a kitchen and they sent a sample of the marble counter top with a metal ball showing what the sink will be like. Now my desk looks like a 90s 3D rendering tool demo image.

A six panel comic, with three rows of two panels each. Hilde the cat looks up at the night sky. She takes out her giant pencil and starts drawing lines connecting the stars, until they form the shape of a big gemstone. She reaches up into the sky and dislodges it, leaving a big white Gap where it used to be. As he walks away with the stone, a confused bat flies up to the white hole in the sky and flies through it, accidentally exiting the comic into the void on the right.

There are two vowels inside you

(or 2.5 if you ask a linguist)

bad people can and often do make good art. attacking the art as retroactively subpar to free yourself of moral dilemma and give yourself permission to not care means you're innately equating quality of art as representative of moral virtue (it's not) which is how you get purity culture

May I propose "housefeeper"?

After giving it some thought, now I believe I'd rather like to be a part-time househusband.

Just got to get the "husband" part sorted first.

An airline security card but instead of oxygen masks, it's squid. Just roll with it.

Secure your own squid first before helping others.

(I'm disproportionately proud of this drawing.)
