Fucking FINALLY

I've been hearing (and participating of) complaints for lack of portability since I joined my first fedi instance back in 2018, and they were always met with complete refusal to implement it (the most common argument was that it was technically possible, but unfeasible)

K[...]

Oh my fucking god. My family and I share wishlists with each other to avoid giving disappointing gifts, and I've had the Codex Seraphinianus (by Luigi Serafini) in mine for many years. I just went to check in case the link hadn't rotten and if the price had gone up, and I suddenly found th[...]

So @anewsocial just announced a beta for moving from the Fediverse into Bluesky which puts me at ease with the idea of keeping investing time in @album for the time being, and I can always Bounce out when they get it ready #I-can-wait-till-the-20th-of-October #or-more-realistically-if-i-do[...]

[I Saw The TV Glow mild spoilers]
I got it tho. Very cool movie. Can recommend #During-the-scene-where-Owen-picks-up-the-new-TV-and-says-"I-have-a-family-of-my-own-and-I-love-them-very-much"-I-said-out-loud-"oh-yeah?-then-why-do-you-look-like-you're-about-to-throw-up"-lmao

I watched I Saw The TV Glow yesterday. I think I'm too autistic for that movie #i-was-too-invested-on-The-Pink-Opaque-story-and-mythology #and-not-enough-on-the-actual-movie's-narrative #that-the-ending-caught-me-completely-offguard #i-thought-there-was-like-easily-20-minutes-left-at-least

*They did not take 3 years to change their mind. Because they do try to make decisions 2~3 years in advance, MaRo mentions it in his Tumblr every other month or so. So for sure they didn't just decide that on a whim on the second or third quarter of 2024

Hey, you were the one asking for receipts. I already know they changed their mind and I know what reasoning they gave. People still don't like that and think making a post to categorically announce something publicly and then turn around less than 3 years later* is bad form.

I mean, there could. But. It looks bad either way. They either made the decision not even a year after saying they wouldn't, or the Suits decided to push for format-altering decisions way too late in the pipeline. Not good

Posted on February of 2021. Disproved on October of 2024, during the announcement that the Final Fantasy would be Standard-legal, 3 years and 8 months later. Internally there couldn't have passed more than 8 months between writing the article & deciding the opposite

Like, when people say his name, it's literally not personal. It's just his job as the main official MTG blogger. If Hasbro now replaced him with a different public-facing person, people would know it's still the same decisions. They wouldn't assume things would change just bc we got a different name

Magic: The Gathering | Official site for MTG news, sets, and events The official source for news and information on Magic: The Gathering, the world's premier trading card game, and MTG Arena.

Well, yes, magic.wizards.com also isn't his personal blog. When he writes an article in there I would hope it gets approval from the company, and he IS talking from the job position of Mr. Magic whenever he publishes an article in the name of the company at the company's official website

He didn't say the magic words "we promise that" or "I promise that", but when you're told something categorical, you expect that to last a bit more than just a couple years. Specially when they are already making plans 2 (for UW sets) or 3 (for UB sets) years in advance

the problem with mechsploitation is that if you turn a girl into a dog that's also an ace pilot you've just succeeded in creating Snoopy

Si se confirma –y tiene pinta de que sí– que los activistas secuestrados por el Estado genocida de Israel han sufrido torturas, vejaciones con fines propagandísticos y privación de comida y agua durante su detención ilegal, ¿harán algo los gobiernos concernidos, la UE, alguien...?

also like this may be true, but then why are you running a public social media service, you need much more than just "systems architects" for that, you cant just engineer away social problems. i feel like you should've learned that by now

Transistor is by far Supergiant's most underrated* game. Unparalleled aesthetic; maybe their best soundtrack, action/puzzle hybrid gameplay that I always wished that Supergiant had a chance to touch back upon.

In 3 days nearly the entire Bluesky team doubled, tripled, quadrupled down on the "WAFFLES" thing in response to upset users, and now Jesse Singal etc are using it as a slur against trans people

It would have been so easy to just *not* do this. There was no reason to escalate for days. :\

Perhaps the best thing Bluesky can do for ATProto is to make a lot of people want to leave Bluesky for other ATProto options

Shows the unique vistor count for the last 24 hours as 723, and 339 at 3pm. (about an hour ago from this post)

busy afternoon at the moover factory 😳

Bluesky CEO meltdown aside, I think I made a mistake selfhosting a personal fediverse instance, bridged into Bluesky, for my photography account. I should have done it the other way around (selfhosted PDS with a bridge to Fedi.) I'm missing all the interactions from my bridge into Bluesky,[...]

La ciencia es clara: el síndrome postaborto no existe, es un término inventado por movimientos ‘provida’ Los problemas mentales de las mujeres que interrumpen voluntariamente un embarazo no deseado no son mayores que los de las que dan a luz

La ciencia es clara: el síndrome postaborto no existe, es un invento de los movimientos 'provida'. Los estudios serios muestran que los problemas mentales de las mujeres que abortan tras un embarazo no deseado no son mayores que los de las que dan a luz

Mspaint doodle- a person strides forward, wearing a shirt with a trans flag. They say "I LOVE being trans!". They have an expression of pure glee.

The person is stopped by someone else, who accusingly points while they say "You! Justify your happiness to me!"

The accosting person says "Debate me no-". They are cut off by the person in the trans shirt saying "No thank you!" as lasers shoot from their eyes, exploding the head of the other character in a cartoonish fashion.

The accosting person stands, alive but expressionless as their headless torso smolders. The person in the trans shirt walks away, a stupidly happy grin still present.

Happy 3-year anniversary to Don't Play Defense #Art #Pride

I think it's almost worse when a textual analysis arrives at a reasonable conclusion via bullshit reasoning than when it's just totally out to lunch. Like, I'm not saying it ISN'T gay as hell, but it's definitely not gay as hell *for that reason*.

The most significant downside of the mastodon and so-called fediverse is that it has no users. It's just me from millions of accounts, and to prove that i'll now post this from all of them
