excited for next week 🥲

one of the only AAA examples I can think of varying NPC weights is CP2077 cause I remember literally bumping into a random NPC that just had my body type. And then began to notice others that weren't just the "joke slob" npc but just "normal". Game has issues for sure but this was refreshing

Hannako and i both needed the twink death android cube brick. Felt weird they mixed the preorder line with general sales. but the concert itself was great. have fun!

Prof Jagolinzer testifies to EU Parliament about the dark uses of cryptocurrency YouTube video by Cambridge Disinformation Summit

"What we do know...is that crypto and meme assets have already become what I consider to be a financial cesspool that is leveraged by many of the darkest actors on the planet.

Zohran Mamdani was the right amount of online New York voters chose reality over AI slop.

good @thedextriarchy.bsky.social take www.theverge.com/policy/81406...

Mamdani: Whether you are an immigrant, a member of the trans community, one of the many black women that Donald Trump has fired from a federal job, a single mom still waiting for the cost of groceries to go down, or anyone else with their back against the wall—your struggle is ours too

as someone who grew up in altoona, pa and lived then lived a significant amount of their life in Brooklyn - who could say that? Sheetz is road trip or "its this or the walmart" at 11:45pm. Its not "the person behind the counter knows my sandwich order and razzes me if i buy different chips."

I literally lost an hour thinking my laptop had some glitch cause i kept hearing the echoy notif noise and thought there was a phantom tab or secondary app launch. Absolutely mind boggling they dont just have a pop up saying "turn on spooky noises if you want right now" vs auto opt in.

just had a colleague ship some stuff to themselves while in japan and it all arrived fine. so fingers crossed worst thing that happens is you get the DHL surprise customs charge of 2x the cost.

are you envious that the writers of this timeline are allowed to get away with "escaped plague monkeys" without being told it's too on the nose?

always love to see various show photos. especially pre open.

a screenshot of uboxes listing for "textile blankets / skins" which led me recoil in horror that in my 25+ years and nearly 2 dozen moves i have never heard these referred to as textile skins. which i will henceforth refer to as "fabric flesh" for the alliteration

Was anyone else aware moving blankets were also referred to as fabric flesh?

yeah. i am also having movers do a fair bit of packing later next month after all my work projects have closed. I just gotta run the cats up and i am taking the art with me.

A room packed with boxes of varying shapes and sizes and now also nearly two dozen frames with their glass surfaces covered in cardboard and then wraped in moving blankets. there are also cat litter boxes nearby. also a pair of shoes nearly a decade old just used for indoor outdoor house work.

Spent all day finishing the last of a ton of house laundry, dishes, and taking down and wrapping all the framed art in the house and now i need to shower.

i gotta have a Last Night at some point

A billion dollars is the socio-economic equivalent of a loose nuke, and we should work to prevent the acquisition of the former with the same urgency and ruthlessness we use to prevent the acquisition of the latter.

We wanted to do something big for the podcast’s birthday episode… 👀
