The insufficiently lawful Brett

A textless version of today's Azura reveal panel, for the cave dwellers among us 💀

A graph titled "Every Graph About the US". The x-axis is labeled "Some metric" and the y-axis is unlabeled. About two-thirds down the x-axis is a dotted vertical line labeled "Ronald Reagan". There is a green line that starts high on the y-axis, then hits the Reagan line and plummets. Conversely there's a red line that starts low on the y-axis and goes up after hitting the Reagan line. The lines cross each other shortly past the Reagan line. At the bottom is a key showing the green line is "Good thing" and the red line is "Bad thing".

Is it too late to wish ill on J.K.Rowling? Because I do, if I remember she exists which doesn't happen often.

A HYDRATED WARRIOR IS A LETHAL WARRIOR.

The problem is: they've mistaken correlation for causation. They think their parents and grandparents had a good life *because* of manufacturing jobs. When, in reality, their parents and grandparents had a good life *despite* manufacturing jobs, because of unions, high taxes, and social policies.

disturbing uptick in "we post tweets and talk about them." servile behavior tbh. bluesky is not the Greek chorus for the main character action of twitter, that's loser thinking, have some pride. twitter is dead. post bangers. thank you

@ianbooth151.bsky.social Time for an emergency muesli bar.

Get enough potatoes like that, you'll be part of the landed gentry.

The body is now fuelled, and I'm ready for all the nothing I'm going to end up doing today.

For the record: I think the best thing Something Awful did on the internet was implement a "We can just ban you if your vibes are off" policy, and I hope that's what we're seeing here.

I'm going to start setting my alarm clock on the weekends just for the sheer joy of turning it off and going back to sleep.

Random things I think about sometimes: model railroaders, surely the most staid of a staid hobby, can buy little models of people having sex for their layouts.

The one day I'm here, fired up and ready to work, and I can't get the systems to load.

I'm still stunned Violent J's endorsement wasn't enough to carry the election.

I've got pretty used to it from Mastodon where I mostly post. I follow a bot there that scolds me if I don't add alt text.

Huh, Bluesky offers suggested alt text for images. That's pretty cool.

I'm 55. I'll take it.

I like how when you're really struggling, life decides to just unload a whole truckload of other problems on you.

Cheers, thanks for that.

How the fuck is it only Wednesday?

What's the story behind that one?

Aus.Social Welcome to thundertoot! A Mastodon Instance for the People.

I think your experience is pretty common- Mastodon has a pretty high barrier to entry, but I settled into aus.social early on and never really looked back. I'm closing in on having more posts there than I ever did on Twitter.

Solidarity to Canberra bus drivers taking a snap unprotected strike today to protest increasing occupational violence ✊️✊️✊️

Transport Minister critiques the strike for being "disruptive"... but that's kinda the point of a strike!

An appalling incident, but I'm curious how the assailant happened to have a bag of fish heads about their person.

Ok, today's work plan lasted 43 minutes before contact with the enemy.

Congrats on leaving the hellsite.

I'm more a Mastodon guy myself but I'm here sometimes.
