rantmo (he/him)

Goddammit, I was stretching so I could go to the gym again when either my hamstring or a muscle at the back of my thigh got really tight and sore out of nowhere, so that's not going to work. I guess I'll have to settle for some pushups, which is fine and useful, just not what I was hoping for.

What is going on today, seriously

Every day we get a comment from someone demanding the SA "prosecute ICE" and we once again invite you to Just Google Her

Trump Fox News graphic: showdown with socialism

THIS JUST IN: Socialism won

I am in that nebulous zone where I am technically Gen X by most reckonings but I'm really way too young for that (I wanted to be X when I was a teen) but I'm also too old to be a Millennial. I'm the Carmen Sandiego generation.

Well I feel positively antediluvian now.

Especially if it melted well.

Best idea ever.

so, so good. run it as a political ad.

They told Hegseth he can't take his shirt off

It’s widely known (and, I think, pretty uncontroversial) that learning requires effort — specifically, if you don’t have to work at getting the knowledge, it won’t stick.

Even if an LLM could be trusted to give you correct information 100% of the time, it would be an inferior method of learning it.

This is an amazing fact

Hell yea, this is awesome.

We don't really know how bicycles work.

One of the best side one, track one, album one songs ever.

a medieval style digital drawing of an androgynous brown-skinned knight on horseback on a hill, stabbing a long gold spear into a blue dragon on the ground. the knight has a gold halo behind their head and wears a suit of silver armor with a nonbinary flag striped tunic and a trans flag as a cape. their horse is white, with blue tack with trans pride trim. there is black gothic text at the top and bottom of the image reading “A world without trans people has never existed and never will.” there’s an ornate pale blue border around the image, filled with pink and blue scrollwork, gold hearts filled with colorful flowers, a smiley bat, two smiley moles, and two smiling frogs holding up trans flags.

a world without trans people has never existed and never will

Nothing will ever convince me that this is anything other than canon.

be cool if these guys died in prison

We white folks need to come right out and say, not just defund ICE, but ABOLISH ICE.

We should not have these jackbooted thugs abducting people off the streets and abusing them in illegal concentration camps.

cinema_nasties 1d Al defenders are so embarrassing j.paulmonter 2h All you are saying is that you want to gatekeep creativity. That's not good. drachelbarr & 20h • •• Neuroscientist here... creativity is a process. A process. A FUCKING PROCESS. Not an output. Nobody is gatekeeping the process - Al simply invites you to skip to the end, to the output. Which, as mentioned, is not creativity. Nobody cares if the output is aesthetically pleasing, because the process, the act itself, the limitation of a single human mind and the resulting creations that capture that one single inimitable human experience... is what makes a creation worth paying attention

Well put by @drrachelbarr.bsky.social

Some tongues were made to praise God. Some tongues were made to sing. Some were made for poetry, some for prose, some to agitate and some to soothe.

But some tongues were made for the boot.

Made it to the gym last night, for the first time in months, finally caved and started Horizon Forbidden West, today I secured our tickets for Wake Up Dead Man, tonight work starts on the violence design for Three Musketeers, Full Gear on Saturday, what a great few days.

Two tweets from @tomtomorrow.bsky.social The first reads, "Cheney funeral is live on tv. so far I do not see trump in the shots of the attending dignitaries." The second reads, "ok, per several replies, I guess he and Vance were not invited."

imagine being so awful that you're banned from satan's funeral

The dynamics within the Democratic Party are just different from the GOP here, which Trump and Comer don’t seem to have figured out

Happy birthday!
