...i completely forgot they've been doing the dragon quest remakes
not trying to be conspiratorial but i wonder if toriyama's passing made them hesitant to want to make any visual changes (or delayed something that was planned). but it's nuts i would gladly overpay for just the original on switch
The West is when you blink and blink but all you can see are impossible fatigue colors and all you can remember is that if you stay very still and don't say anything there will be no words to remember this by. This little nothing that never happened
If I don't die before I turn 100 I want to be euthanized via getting pushed through a car wash in an office chair.
“Israel says it is cutting off its electricity supply to Gaza. The full effects of that are not immediately clear, but the territory’s desalination plants receive power for producing drinking water.”
All the other astronauts are super mad at me for bringing a 1000-piece puzzle with me on the space station. First of all I don’t think a 19x27 table is that big. Second of all nobody told me stuff was weird up here
Finally.
A major media outlet has finally reported on Trump’s total travel ban for transgender visa applicants seeking the United States.
I had to scream for two days to get someone else to report on it.
It is NOT just for athletes.

THE PLEA FOR help arrived last summer. am in Myanmar and work for a fraud company," a Chinese human-trafficking victim wrote in a short email sent from within the Tai Chang scam compound. Like thousands of others in the region, they were promised legitimate work only to find themselves tricked into modern slavery and forced to scam people online for hours every day. Tai Chang, which backs on to the Myanmar-Thailand border, has been linked to incidents of torture. "I'm not safe, I'm chatting with you secretly," they said. Despite the risk, their first request wasn't to be rescued.
NEW: A WIRED investigation reveals that Elon Musk’s Starlink is serving internet to scam compounds in Myanmar where tens of thousands of human beings are enslaved.

It is interesting how 2028 Democrats are positioning themselves for President. Pritzker is speaking as a moral voice, Mayor Pete is stressing government competence, and Gavin Newsome has laid another clutch of eggs he will hide in the nests of birds whose flesh will provide sustenance upon hatching
I wrote about a law in Fremont, CA to criminalize trying to help unhoused folks, how it’s on the tail of a long campaign of similar punishment, and the overlapping venn of conservatives & liberals on this issue. Link 👇
"Diane, 11:30 a.m., February 24th. Entering the town of Twin Peaks." but it's the horny honking guy from I Think You Should Leave
NEW: The International Criminal Court has been asked to investigate former President Joe Biden, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin for aiding and abetting Israeli war crimes in Gaza.
industrialized my place recently and i'm having quite a bit of trouble breathing in here now but i've been manufacturing more tractors than all of the other apartments in my building combined and i'm almost finished making a second one
Albert Bierstadt’s Rocky Mountain Landscape, oil on canvas, 1870. View of the Rocky Mountains, which dominate the painting - they're a mossy green, with one waterfall to the left and at least two narrow, silvery streams to the right. Some of the tallest peaks in the back are snow capped. in the foreground: a small copse of trees with green and orange leaves, a dark, shadowy meadow/grass with tiny pink flowers, a family of deer (doe, stag, fawn). The water between the mountains and the grass reflects the mountains almost perfectly. It's paradisiacal: the painting is about 40% clouds, which shift from pearlescent white to lavender (almost like moonstone) - they cling low to the mountains and climb up into the sky, obscuring its blue almost totally. Looks like the sun is in the upper right corner of the painting, though you can't see it, only its rays filtering through the clouds, touching the mountains and water below.
Albert Bierstadt’s Among the Sierra Nevada Mountains, oil on canvas, 1868 View of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. In the bottom right corner of the painting, there’s a patch of deep green grass and forest, seven deer (including one stag) and birds that look like geese or ducks flying into the water. The mountains occupy the entire background and most of the left side of the painting, some of the peaks in the far back are snow capped. Two waterfalls pour into water that's almost a gunmetal color with a blue tint, the water is mostly still except for a layer of silver mist in the far background and ripples where the birds and deer are. The waterfall and face of the mountain are reflected in the water's surface. The colors on the right side of the painting are warm and rich, but they become darker and cooler toward the left side, where the face of the mountain almost looks made of steely gray stone. Like the other painting, the sun is obscured but its rays are diffused through thick clouds that shift from a pale yellow to stormy gray.
I respect any motherfucker who can paint the hell out of light & water
quote from martin scorsese on david lynch after his passing. the section in the post is highlighted. the full paragraph says: “I hear and read the word ‘visionary’ a lot these days—it’s become a kind of catch-all description, another piece of promotional language. But David Lynch really was a visionary—in fact, the word could have been invented to describe the man and the films, the series, the images and the sounds he left behind,” said Martin Scorsese in a statement shared with IndieWire. “He created forms that seemed like they were right on the edge of falling apart but somehow never did. He put images on the screen unlike anything that I or anybody else had ever seen—he made everything strange, uncanny, revelatory and new. And he was absolutely uncompromising, from start to finish. It’s a sad, sad day for moviemakers, movie lovers, and for the art of cinema. But ‘Eraserhead,’ ‘The Elephant Man,’ ‘Blue Velvet,’ ‘Wild at Heart,’ the two ‘Twin Peaks’ series and the film ‘Fire Walk with Me,’ ‘Lost Highway,’ ‘The Straight Story,’ ‘Mulholland Drive,’ ‘Inland Empire’… as the years and the decades go by, they will just keep growing and deepening. We were lucky to have had David Lynch.”
"He created forms that seemed like they were right on the edge of falling apart but somehow never did."

Historic TV Moments: David Lunch agrees to be on The Cleveland Show." David Lynch holds a coffee mug that says #1 Director and a phone rings off the hook. He answer it "hello?" He takes a sip from his coffee. He then says "yeah, sure."
RIP David Lynch. I loved him dearly.

I just want to point out that Colorado went above and beyond to pass laws protecting trans kids this year and the result was them holding the House supermajority and keeping the Senate majority while losing zero seats (flipping one, and losing the one that was the guy who changed parties)
