Had the unforgettable experience of seeing Raye live in concert! Gunna have Click Clack Symphony stuck in my head for the next month or three.

Noticed that his Bsky account hasn't posted in 10 months, and his pinned post is completely - without exception - filled with comments telling him to go fuck himself. Nice.

Maybe if we keep shitting on the vibecoding, they'll hire some actual programmers who know how to program. Job creation via trolling.

My partner has a real gift for translating decades of experience cooking with a vibes-based, add-ingredients-and-adjust-temp-until-it-looks-right methodology into very effective measurement-and-timer-based recipes my autistic ass can work with. Just...shout-out to her, cause she makes it seem easy!

Did they make Eugenie Danglars a not-very-subtle lesbian? Would be cool if they got that bit right.

I think we’re entering the find out phase… YouTube video by Farming While Beige

This guy's deadpan take on it had me in stitches this morning: www.youtube.com/shorts/NfRi3...

"Living wages are cheaper than revolution."

Much, much cheaper.

I legitimately wonder what would happen if Leo placed the US under interdict - no Catholic mass, confession, or funerals - or if he excommunicated Vance et al. I feel like the Medieval European history I've been reading is bleeding out into reality.

Even as a historian by special interest, the ONLY reason I heard about the Avignon papacy was due to the Accursed Kings series of historical novels by Maurice Druon.

I love the idea that the Axumites and their descendants apparently encountered so many Greek missionaries and merchants named Yohannes, that Yonanawi became the Gəʽəz word for Greek. 'Him? He's a John. Those holy fathers? Johns, from the faraway land of the Johns.'

Introduce articles and find out!

That was more or less the exact message put out by Warnock today, I shit you not.

I'm not saying we *celebrate* the bone spurs, but critiquing those who evaded or objected to the draft suggests implicit merit in the Vietnam draft - which is some boomer 'suffering builds character, why should you get it easier than I did' bullshit.

Say what you will about the moral monstrosity of a cosseted, privileged president treating war like a game - and there's *plenty* to say - but highlighting his draft-dodging as an avenue of attack seems counterproductive at a time when we need every wrench possible thrown into the gears of war.

you don't actually hate what you're creating. if it was made by someone else, you'd like it. you'd say it's cool. you'd say it's inspiring. you can easily imagine another artist drawing this, and someone else liking it. you only doubt it because it's yours. stop. it's okay. you're allowed to be.

The UK, France, and Portugal in particular abstaining - as though this was a resolution that did not involve them or their history - is almost more insulting than the predictable, full-chest racism from the current US administration.

Yes, we should talk about how pathetic it is that the US, Israel, and Argentina voted against Ghana's UN resolution recognizing the moral abomination that was the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade. But we should ALSO highlight the 52 abstentions - most of which came from European colonizers.

"Live action" Disney remakes always look like shit, they're always gross cash-grabs (it's questionable if writers get paid when they get made), and they never cement themselves very long in the public consciousness. A movie being animated is not a problem to be solved.

Funny how I've gotten bills from Catholic Medical Center, huh? Maybe Leo should mandate that Catholic medical providers in the US provide free care to *all* patients, without bigoted exceptions. I like some of his talk, but talk is cheap.

I figured Krafton was trying to get out of paying that bonus - because of *course* they were - but somehow, in the year of our lord 2026, I underestimated how stupid the 'how' of this would wind up being.

Idea: mandatory retirement age for Congress equivalent to the average U.S. life expectancy (79) so they actually care about improving it.

Hopefully, this news will spur Valve into putting their plans to make SteamOS available on third-party devices into overdrive. "Hey, wanna toss Windows out a window, but still want to play all your games on your existing computer? One download, one charge, and you're good to go."

A minor league hockey team had a wiener dog race. Zero thoughts, just vibes and absolute chaos. A thing of beauty

As for Slaanesh - that requires no explanation at this point, does it? Like Lorgar, he wraps himself in false religion and is generally pathetic compared to his peers, but may set in motion the corruption and stagnation of his empire.

Trump is clearly a champion of Chaos Undivided. He helps Nurgle spread his diseases via Secretary Brainworm, and so his rot is held at bay for a little while. He feeds Khorne's bloodlust at home and abroad, while dancing to the tune of at least five different puppeteers - as Tzeentch would wish.

I think it's time to revive the Ludlow Amendment - no war without a national referendum - with some revised language to rule out 'military operations' or whatever other weaselly bullshit politicians put together to justify bombing without congressional approval.

If the games are basically movies, why are they making a show of any kind? What gains to narrative pacing and delivery stand to be made by a live-action treatment that couldn't also be made by prestige animation?
