A fantastic Prince primer; I have now owned it on three different physical formats!
i bet this shit sounds magical if you're fucking stupid
We've hit all our stretch goals for our TTRPG anthology!! 20 new one shot incursions for Trophy! We're not going to be printing a lot of extra books so be sure to get in on it now or you'll be sad later! www.kickstarter.com/projects/fir...
Devin holding up two vinyl LPs, Prince’s THE HITS Vol.s 1&2. There’s significant glare, both in the sense of “light reflecting off the surface of one album” and “Prince is giving you quite a look on the other.”
@iamatrex.com got me a pretty good birthday present this year.
Ben Shapiro has new eyebrows
Holy shit, Ben Shapiro is Grouchomaxxing.
remember when that cronenberg movie 'existenz' came out and it seemed like a fun and silly conceit for there to be freedom fighters taking on corporate conglomerates in an attempt to protect consensus reality from an ocean of digital hallucination
Graffiti on a wall. An illustration of a brown dog with a giant lolling pink tongue. It's wearing a human skull as a helmet, colored the same bright pink as its tongue. The human teeth are above its protruding nose, its eyes look out the eyeholes and a hole has been made to let its ear poke out. A word balloon on the wall next to it reads: Often change is hard, medicine is bitter, things that aren't pretty are misunderstood as something bad... I don't know bud give it a second look."
Often, change is hard, medicine is bitter...
Graffiti in Oakland, CA
It is so windy today in Edmonton that from my 11th floor window I can hear things flying off balconies and shattering on the ground.
Wait a second...
...after a quick look at my patio I'm happy to confirm that I can hear things flying off *other people's* balconies.
So much online conservatism these days is just "I miss being a kid"
Like a lot of things rich guys believe and fund, the AI consciousness thing is in part driven by a desire to abscond from the responsibility of what they've made. It also explains why so many of them think we're in a simulation. Doesn't matter if everybody died if we're all just 1s and 0s baby!
Update: have sewed four patches in the last three days so far. Things I am re-learning:
1. Hand-sewing is finicky work, especially when your canvas is a 6x8 foot blanket.
2. I never seem to select the right amount of thread; I’m always running out about 2/3 of the way through.
Things have been more stressful than usual around the old place the last two weeks, so today I'm going to alternately watch movies and work on projects. Teddy Roosevelt said "ceaseless action can defeat despair" but I'm hoping some ceasing for cinema's sake wouldn't upset Teddy too much.
Delightful. Good job Mohammad indeed.

Wolverine apparently indoors, a background like the Danger Room or something is seen from head to waist from his right side as he lights a cigerate or something and says, "Maybe it's just the way o' the world that did it. Maybe the dream is DEAD. Maybe we should all stop pretendin' it ain't--" Thanks, Logan.
These guys are going "look, I invented a mind that is ok to enslave!"
Which means they *already think there are some minds that are ok to enslave*
And then you look at how they treat actual people and you're like "yeah that checks out, shithead"
Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM
Droll thing life is--that mysterious arrangement of merciless logic for a futile purpose. The most you can hope from it is some knowledge of yourself--that comes too late--a crop of unextinguishable regrets.
Joseph Conrad, laying down some hard truths.

No shade to Viola Davis because she’s absolutely amazing but I genuinely want Amanda Waller to look like this again.
In February's episode of Scotch & Comics, I ty to bring some lightness so I start with Jamie Delano's run on ANIMAL MAN, which was not the best idea. But I quickly correct that trajectory with Roger Langridge's THE MUPPET SHOW and Walt Simonson's THE MIGHTY THOR. Give it a shot! Or a full glass!
I posted a new, silly little crossword here: crosshare.org/everythingni...
I had an idea for a clue theme that was a little too ambitious for me to complete as smoothly as I envisioned, but I finished it anyway so other crossword puzzlers could enjoy it.

I find sewing mind-numbingly boring but this has been a "to-do" project for 2 years and I want to wear it this summer on the chilly Folk Fest evenings, so I had better get started. I have quality needles (so they won't bend) and a metal-topped thimble to protect my delicate healing fingertips.
My challenge for March is more of a full-month project: to sew patches on to my old Scout blanket. I have 41 patches in total, plus one deconstructed Scouts Canada sash; I'm going to start with the 11 that are currently pinned to the project and then try for as many as I can get done by March 31.
i wish people had the capacity to understand that the deconstruction of Christianity isn’t a stick to persuade the masses of believers of God that God doesn’t exist.
it’s to deconstruct the indoctrination of racism, misogynoir, transphobia, homophobia and pedophilia that drives capitalism.
One of the greatest moments in television history! I quote it sometimes: “Devin has fancy plans, and pants to match.”
"This whole industry fucking sucks and this little get-together you guys have here is like a private boys' club and it's a bunch of jackasses and jerks and fucking gangsters and crooks who've fucking stolen everything from a fucking artist. Telling the artist to come out here and tap dance.
Steve Miller's quote about being inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2016 is the hardest shit. What a legend.
I’ll help!

Just realized it's been over a year since I showed off this commission I got from @rpace.bsky.social. He was raising money for a charity. I will never stop showing this off.
Hot dang!
Happy #DeLaSoulDay! 3/3 🌼🌼🌼
