I think I need to start scheduling PTO/maintenance days after my in-office days. Slogging through today with an injured hand and a tweaked neck sucked.

American News just reads like an excerpt between a watchmen chapter

This is why we say to be polite/dont get aggressive/dont issue any kind of threats when making #SaveSpeech calls

If youre making calls or posting comments online with actual calls to violence? Youre putting yourself and all your comrades at risk

NO FEDPOSTING

I've made a self-hosting guide. I wanted it to be easy to use, but setup is always technical, but I tried very hard and will edit if I get feedback!

Remember that we still need your help against censorship 🙏

I keep thinking of how in Nazi-occupied Denmark, if a Nazi walked into a bar, everyone would pay up and walk out.

What does it say when you’re eating your “hangover breakfast” the day after you didn’t actually do any drinking, partying, and still got to bed on time?

So apparently, it may turn out that The Wizard of Oz at the Las Vegas Sphere wasn’t entirely made in AI and Google threw the VFX crew under the bus by claiming it was all done by artificial intelligence.

If true, then fucking yikes.

I feel compelled to create a Tiefling and a fallen Aasimar as a couple, but the Aasimar isn’t like…an angsty beauty with the wings of a black swan; I want her to have the wings of a pigeon, which will set her whole vibe.

Yes!

Day 1 of Gender Chaos, and I stabbed myself correctly with my needle.
So far, so good. 👍

(It's this Stardew Valley strawberry throw.)

I'm really enjoying the process of the throw, and I know I could bang through so many squares for it, but the next row takes [crochet math] 5 different colors and I'm not sure I want to try and wind off smaller balls off what I already have.

All of my yarn projects right now require large amounts of supplies right now—

- Sweater uses yarn wound in a huge ball
- Throw requires multiple color changes
- Amigurumi needs me to carry stuffing

—and I'm trying to rationalize how to bring any one of the projects with me on the train next week.

I cannot describe how fucking happy it makes me seeing journalists just pointing out that they're lying. Once again, if you're calling, bringing up these articles as why you're calling is a VERY good idea.

Why are they lying? Why are they refusing to process legal transactions?

Post from "The Rundown" July 18 at 5:30 PM · DuckDuckGo has introduced a new feature allowing users to filter out AI-generated images from search results, addressing growing concerns over synthetic content overwhelming authentic visuals online. The filter can be activated through a dropdown in the Images tab, search settings, or by using a dedicated AI-free domain: noai.duckduckgo.com. The system relies on curated blocklists, including uBlockOrigin’s Huge AI Blocklist, to detect and suppress AI-generated imagery. While not perfect, it significantly reduces synthetic content visibility. This move sets DuckDuckGo apart from competitors like Google and Bing by giving users direct control over their exposure to AI-generated material. Source: TechCrunch

It's Friday afternoon, I've got ~2 hours of work left (drawing wild birds)...

...and on the backburner, I'm thinking about making a short m❤️m smut comic about a heartbroken mutant with sharklike features, and the solarpunk marine biologist that gets unexpectedly invested in his emotional trauma.
