Just another day on 2Fort #teamfortess #tf2 #tf2pyro #funny #gameplay #kdenlive TikTok video by wordsforgeektok

Weird TF2 moment I happened to record. Tiktok doesn't seem to be letting people see it.

The thing I like most about James Gunn's comic book movies is that they're not ashamed to be comic book movies. So many CBMs remove elements they deem silly, only to replace them with their own silly aspects.

OMNY gave me a number to call to fix my account. There were 100 callers ahead of me.

Guess I'm calling after work.

Can these rappers give me a second to breathe? I'm glad hip hop is back, but you don't need to "back to back" each other.

Bella Ramsey is great as Ellie, and the show has a better story than the game.

(impostor syndrome part 2) you are not special, but donโ€™t let the man get you down One of the most consistent recruitment methods by various right wing factions (religious, n*zi, etc) is preying on people who are desperateโ€ฆ

a desperation to be acclaimed will only result in you being unhappy with yourself!! just do the shit you personally find fulfilling. focus on what you like.

as long as you're not a dick, it'll work out.

i beat impostor syndrome (and hereโ€™s how i did it) There are two kinds of impostor syndrome. Thereโ€™s the one that says โ€œI donโ€™t deserve to be here among all these other people who are muchโ€ฆ

when I wrote my two pieces on impostor syndrome, i made the very explicit point that you need to care about what you care about. impostor syndrome basically comes from a place of letting other people control your actions (for what reason?)

Up-to-date BlueSky Crop Aspect Ratio
Crop Sizes for Bluesky as of 18 Oct 2024

By default, single images are uncropped. If image is too tall (Exceeds the 1:2 aspect ratio) then it will be cropped. Single images that are too tall may be scaled down but aspect ratio is preserved

With two images, both of them share a square aspect ratio of 1:1

For three images, the first image is square (1:1) while the other two are half-squares (2:1)

And for 4 images, all of them are 3:2

I came across an outdated guide on image grid sizing crop/proportions for bsky earlier, and I felt it was important to create an updated version! Please use this new guide instead!

Well, I'll have to make a new TikTok. If you ever get the opportunity to create an account on one social media site using another social media site... don't.
