@smollusk.bsky.social Sending you an old but adorable pic of my cat because I don't know how you manage to argue with bad faith antisemites without losing your mind and I feel you could use some cuteness/good vibes.

One of my favorite games of last year and utterly ridiculous that it is free.

It is orders of magnitude larger and more fully-featured than 99% of commercial rhythm games. It's also a visual novel, a cypher-cracking ARG, a Yume Nikki like oneiric explorathon and even has ONLINE MULTIPLAYER.

So absolutely added to my library, praying it's not too harsh on the difficulty and/or has an easy mode or something.

A screenshot of a Steam Curator blurb for a game, from the Hella Yuri curator. The blurb is as follows: β€œProtagonist is a trans lesbian in a relationship with another main female character, which is important to the story.”

This blurb is followed by a thumbs up recommendation.

I absolutely SUCK at rhythm games, but I thought this looked cool based on your post and trust your recommendations, and then I saw this on the Steam page.

How's the quitting smoking going? My dad's been an on again off again on again off again on yet again smoker since he was a kid. And I've lived with him for like 4 decades, so I know it can be rough at times. *sending good vibes your way*

On a more positive note, you look amazing there, and neither you nor your shirt deserve the comparison to her, so I'm angry on your behalf.

Though as a trans woman who picked "Maya" as my name... I guess unpleasant comparisons to British transphobes is just our lot in life lol.

Color photo of a man with brown hair and tan or brown skin, leaning against a very cool huge teal car. In his hands he’s holding a tiny white and ginger kitten that seems like it might be wearing a collar and leash but it’s difficult to tell for sure. Palm trees rise up in the background.

All the coolest dudes love kittens. Photo from my collection, no date/info.

Look, sometimes a man wants smooth legs, it's no biggie (that's totally what he meant by shaving right)

How Kansas Republicans weaponized the law to target 300 trans driver's license holders SB 244 was put into effect virtually overnight, causing chaos, panic and fear in the trans community.

New β€” I spoke to eight trans people in Kansas about the new state law that invalidated their driver’s licenses overnight, what’s it’s like to live there right now, plus details of two DMV emails exclusively obtained by The Handbasket that shed light on the law’s chaotic and cruel rollout:

The bombing is happening after we learned of progress in the nuclear talks.

The lesson continues to be that you can never trust Americans.

Any state threatened by the Americans will have concluded by now that their only safety is to develop nukes asap, surely?

God there's so much bloatware and obnoxious stuff on a "new" phone like this. This one was given to me by a friend who I guess had already cleared stuff out beforehand so I didn't have to deal with it so much before.

Rebooting in safe mode did nothing.

This is an LG k40, running android, metro pcs service for further context.

Tried removing and resetting the sim, resetting network setting, using an alternative dialer. Nothing is fixing it. Again texts work, but trying to call anyone just hangs and does nothing, or sends me to my home screen.

My phone has suddenly stopped receiving or sending phone calls. Texts work so the sim card is still seen, data works, but trying to dial just does nothing.

Android phone, anyone have anything like this happen? Any ideas?

A sceenshot of a post by Rod Hilton on Mastodon, saying the following about Elon Musk:

"He talked about electric cars. I don't know anything about cars, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.

Then he talked about rockets. I don't know anything about rockets, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.

Now he talks about software. I happen to know a lot about software & Elon Musk is saying the stupidest shit I've ever heard anyone say, so when people say he's a genius I figured I should stay the hell away from his cars and rockets.

I literally didn't even know George Galloway endorsed them till now. Did anyone? This feels rather like rather a desperate cope/excuse from Starmer.

A bit of an aside, but it's interesting how everyone attacking the greens right now seems to have decided that "sectarian" is their buzzword of choice. But like with Kemi's statement, they can't seem to explain exactly *how* the greens are sectarian, at least compared to any other political party.

Maybe some MPs were still thinking Labour was the best bet for stopping Reform, and focusing on what they felt was harm reduction. But between this and what happened in Caerphilly, it should be obvious now that Labour stopping Reform is unlikely even if you believe they are meaningful harm reduction

He should definitely leave, as should any other Labour MP who still has some progressive values left. Labour leadership has shown over and over again they will not change course, and I doubt this loss will really make any difference in that.
