On one hand this is bullshit, on the other hand it will 100% raise a new generation of tech-literate degenerates who bang on about the virtues of Linux

Listen sometimes you just need to put on some horrible 90s synth-pop and play it so loud you forget how to language, that’s just how it is

This Is Just To Say

I have turned off
the AI features
that were in
the update

and which
you were probably
hoping
to monetize

Fuck you
they were stupid
so unnecessary
and so annoying

True story.

FWIW it’s been broken since I worked in the industry in the early 2010s and possibly far longer…

And yet this is the least surprising thing I’ve read in a while

Listen I’m not normally into combat footage because war bad, but this right here is perfection.

Also I deeply, deeply enjoy the sight of expensive high tech weaponry being taken out by a crappy prop plane, some shotguns, and a couple of dudes with decent aim

I wish all my Hungarian friends a very happy ousting of Orban today

YAAAAAAAY

Screenshot of a news article where our glorious balding leader, Micheál Martin, complains that the fuel protests in Ireland “are wrong” and “not a legitimate form of protest”, which confirms that he is in fact an enormous prick out of touch with the common people (who are known for engaging in demented protests and who will absolutely take this as an opportunity to mock the shit out of him)

Every Irish politician is a wet noodle

A rounded robot with banded arms and legs. It stands near a wall, surrounded by absolute darkness, holding aloft a sort of simlified Davy lamp that casts light all around it, onto the wall and floor. The robot has a defiant expression on its face, and is holding out its free hand, almost as if warding something off.

484) Hopebot. Finds you in the darkness and tells you that at the end of every tunnel is a light, no matter how bleak the future looks it is still unwritten, you are alive and a human being with mind, the universe's last defence against entropy. Rise. Continue. Be. #SmallRobotsRemastered

AAHAHAHAHAHAHAGAHAHAAAHHAH

*deep breath*

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAAHAH
NO.

*checks calendar* ah yes, my weekly crash-out/existential crisis, how could I forget

I believe 100% that this cover came into existence because Harlequin are cheap, their graphic artists are overworked, and their marketing efforts are now powered by AI and the drunken whims of executives who have never once read a romance book.

Mary Shelley: sup fuckers
Poe: joanne was explaining death of the author
Poe: what do you think, mary
Shelley: death of the author eh?
Shelley: [brandishing swicthblade] i think it's a good idea
Rowling: i
Rowling: i have to go

A sticker from ohmygollyembroidery on Etsy that says Trans Lives Are More Important Than Harry Potter.

That is the truth and you know it well, or the judgment would not bother you so.

There is so much good stuff out there, made by kind people, and you still chose this.

May your very soul rot from that choice.

And to that I must say: go ask the gods for absolution of your sins, because you will find none here among us.

I hope those sins eat away at you. I hope the guilt torments you.

You chose a momentary pleasure over the very lives of others, and you will be judged accordingly.

People are absolutely up their own asses about watching the Terrible HP Show and not being rightly crucified for making the decision public.

You want the world to tell you that you’re not a bad person for watching it, that it doesn’t mean you’re a transphobe.

It’s shocking how the motivation behind almost every single bad tech bill is about hating LGBTQ people and specifically trans people

I can tell this cup of coffee's not going to be enough today

I left as soon as the deal was finalized, and I do not care to return.

I’ll get all my doomscrolling from less Nazi-infested sites, tyvm

I feel like it’s time to bring back something I said a few years ago which amounts to this:

Any system can be broken, in ways you cannot imagine, by users who are sufficiently motivated by spite.

I know I’m a flawed personality because the first thing I looked at was their shoes, and only then did I chuckle to myself

NGL it feels like we’re all just sitting around with the popcorn waiting to see what happens when the money runs out and/or the market gets bored, because there is nothing we can do about it except watch the proceedings that will inevitably crash our entire lives. Again.

THERE IS.

A PEANUT PAC.
