A meme styled as a text post titled "The Fourth Way," featuring a circular profile picture of a person with dramatic makeup and the watermark "50 Nerds of Grey." The post reads: "I just discovered ominous positivity and I'm obsessed. -You will be fine you have no choice. -Everything will turn out okay you cannot stop it. -You will succeed it's inevitable. -Better days are already coming it's too late now." The tone is a humorous mix of positivity and an ominous inevitability, creating a slightly unsettling yet uplifting effect. Generated with BSky AltText CustomGPT.

I'm a big fan of pronoia, too. (That's this ominous feeling that Universe is about to do you a favor.)

we could all just decide collectively that ravenous is a Christmas film. we could do this

SOCRATES: actually any movie is a christmas movie if people have nostalgic memories of watching it at christmas

DIOGENES: [runs in with a DVD of EMPIRE STRIKES BACK] behold, a christmas movie

I have the uncanny ability to make really good recommendations for media for people based off of what they already like.

Too bad most of my friends and family have really severe PDA and if I say they should listen/watch/read something it takes 5-7 financial years for them to do it.

Every so often, even after over 13 years of being sober and about a decade of not smoking, I get the sudden craving for a whiskey and a cigarette.

The urges never go away, but you get faster at dismissing the craving and moving on from the thoughts.

You’re doing great, remember that.

can I code fast? no. but can I code well? also no. but does my code work? alas, no

Me: I love my PC, I built it myself and I have lovingly set it up in such a way that it does all of the really niche little things I want it to do.
Also Me, to said PC: I will take a baseball bat and beat you like you owe me fucking money if you don't let me download this ONE (1) important document.

When my father and I left the church we were persona non grata and lost all support. We saw Wicked and it was was one of the first moments where I saw the beauty of a piece of secular work that was a love letter to the oppressed, to the people who have been cast out and abandoned. Truly timeless.

The meme I didn't know I needed

Yes, I write crime and am venturing into horror. BUT I also have a dream to one day write a Hallmark Christmas Movie.

As a writer, I contain multitudes.

Meme with text: "Refugees didn’t take away affordable housing. Rich landlords and greedy politicians did." The image features a cartoonish style reminiscent of vintage propaganda, with a top-hat-wearing capitalist holding a sack of money, being kicked by a Vault Boy-like character symbolizing resistance to exploitation.

C.J. Cherryh has a really expansive universe that most of her novels take place in.

If you're looking for a more Earth-Based set of scifi/fantasy then anything Matt Dinniman is amazing for that.

Diane Duane also has some good Star Trek novels as well as the Young Wizards series that is a fun read.

The notebook sweet spot is so small.
Like the chances of finding one that's nice enough to buy but not too nice to ruin by writing in it are basically zero. Madness. This world is absolute madness.

Three figures stand on a grassy, windswept field under a night sky. On the left is a young male jedi with a green lightsaber. In the middle, is a robed human woman with light brown skin gesturing beatifically towards the audience. On the right is an alien woman in robes holding flowers. Super imposed is the high republic symbol, resembling wings circling a stylized starburst.

A robed feminine figure in a semi-religious pose stands at the mouth of the cave, lit from behind and casting a long shadow over the floor of the cave, which is emblazoned with a sinister red logo. Creeping along the sides of the cave are monsters with tentacle faces and long sinewy limbs. Behind the robed figure are two women jedi with blue lightsabers.

The discourse over twitter & leaving vs staying is getting truly goofy in some directions.

Twitter is not a *place* ffs. Twitter without the people is nothing. We have 100% of the power over whether twitter has value or not.

When we leave, we're not ceding ground? We're taking the ground with us.

I can take it down! There’s little anxiety birds nesting there! I’d destroy their homes, ravage the delicate ecosystem my OCD has created!

Features users want:
- group DMs
- custom notification filters
- something about gifs

Features we are prepared to deliver:
- servers not going down under the load of most of twitter joining
- some cute animations when you expand a picture in your feed
