Lifetime video game and animal lover. I write code and work on cloud stuff for a living. I take photos, make music, make people laugh, and make up stories in my spare time. Equality, equity, justice, sustainability, and LGBTQ+ rights are important to me.
Millions are going without SNAP benefits while Elon Musk dances like an idiot in a room full of cheering people after being awarded a one-trillion dollar pay package. A court ordered the administration to resume SNAP benefits and the US president APPEALED it. This is America. #uspolitics #usnews
Why are they wasting their time with Hogwash University when they could be reading about the great Unseen University and one of its—um—most prestigious—um—people with a hat, Rincewind!
Oh no, guess I have something to brace myself for tomorrow…
I must accept that they are not the same people they were.
Sadder yet, there’s nothing I can do to convince them that they need to reconsider their positions. It is beyond me how they think it was right for Trump and JD to behave the way they did. I’m not sure that they watched it. How could they and still come away with those views?
I’m watching friends on Facebook, once reasonable people who could engage in discussion on matters of the country and come to reasonable conclusions, become so red-pilled that they honestly think Zelenskyy tried to bully Trump, all the while spreading Kremlin talking points. It’s honestly sad.
I’d say Donald Trump is, himself, an Oompa Loompa with gigantism and that he’s probably the one that sold out his tribesmen to Willy Wonka, but I can’t bring myself to insult Oompah Loompas in such a manner as to infer that they spawned something like him.
Nothing says “patriotic” like behaving in a manner which our forefathers and centuries of democratic leaders would take likely arms against, for that matter.
Let’s fire up to 1000 NOAA employees while weather and climate patterns are getting markedly more extreme in the US and while groups who study those trends are already understaffed. 🤡
Nothing says “patriotic” like the mass firing of US workers and weakening our scientific administrations.
Not for the current price nor given the current capabilities of Apple Intelligence. In fairness, I’m waiting for the next generation, or maybe next few generations, of Vision Pro. The current version is a good first step, but doesn’t seem ready for wide consumer adoption—same for Apple Intelligence.
From incel to vocel, the Elon Musk story.
That book combined with a few podcasts has painted a clear picture of where Elon Musk and his gang came from and why they’re here. Hasn’t mentioned him by name so far, but I can read the book, watch something he does, and say “oh, this guy was definitely on 8chan or 4chan, he’s blackpilled”.
I just bought an ebook copy of Jesus and John Wayne. So, I feel ya, at least this is an ebook haha. As far as recommendations go, I’ve been reading Black Pill by Elle Reeve, which is about how the dark corners of the internet (think 8chan) had a major part in forming the alt-right. Good book so far!
Someone should remake Medal of Honor and The Saboteur.
Is this your blog? If so, I’ll give it a follow!
Good music made by talented, human, artists will prevail. The tape doesn’t lie.
… and some of us listen to the Bob Dylan Christmas album every year. We are not the same, either.
here’s elon musk under his pseudonym “adrian dittman” chastising laura loomer for suggesting he might be elon musk in a twitter space he joined to beef with loomer
Th oligarchy arrived sooner and more brazenly than I expected. I thought DT would at least need to be elected first, maybe change some laws, but through spineless congresspeople anything is possible.
Playing Earthworm Jim as a human made me think: If I was a worm, would anyone still love me? That’s when I had to put the controller down. #Witcher4
The Great Circle is an awesome game by the way. Highly recommend!
So I’m watching Raiders of the Lost Ark on @plutotv.bsky.social and just realized that the intro to Indiana Jones: The Great Circle is basically the same as the intro to the movie. 🤯
This machine kills fascists. #indianajones #woodyguthrie #guitargobong
Jokes on him! We can’t “grow the hell up” if we die when we’re children because of conservative extremism and corporate greed!
The premise: Big insurance, big suck.
God damned it.
Albeit I’m not as skilled as you are, I feel you.
Maybe Luigi should be the one to rescue the princess from bowser…
After T1MAGEDDON, Gumshoe Gooper seriously considered who he’s represented and what he’ll stand for going forward. The new Gumshoe Gooper, or Newshoes Nooper if you’d like, strongly supports trans rights and no longer associates with Goodtime Valley. #TotallyCanon #StandWithNooper #HypnospaceOutlaw
Asked my 12yo, "What weighs more, a pound of feathers or a pound of bricks?"
Answer: "A pound of feathers, because you have to carry the weight of what you did to those poor birds."
