The most wonderful day of the year 🎊

I remember excitedly buying this book in 2011, as an engineer fresh out of university. And making my way through roughly half a chapter. Several hundred miles and a half dozen moves later, it is somehow still on my bookshelf.

Aggressive bullying works!

Huh. That’s he @scalzi.com trick actually worked great

no

First episode was a delight, truly like a Miyazaki anime series. Unfortunately I got halfway through episode 2 before turning it off because it’s just so…childish. Which is fine! It’s a kid’s cartoon. Might try again, might leave it and its beautiful animation for the youths.

The mystery bush really is the obvious answer

Mild annoyances of an ex-parkour athlete: no in the history of parkour has EVER called it “parkouring”. It’s the same as the doctors saying they’re surgeoning or medicining their patients. #thepitt #parkour

I for one think you could totally enchant her

Bro are you even gay (I literally completely agree with you)

Cardio is good for you, they said

Having a deeply mediocre week but I did two sets of one rep of 315 (3 plates) on bench so I’ve got that going for me

Using AI would defeat the entire purpose and pleasure of writing.

I have no more interest in using AI to write than I have interest in letting another person run a marathon for me.

The arrival isn't the point, nor the beauty of it.

Oh my friends and I are obsessed with this one. I’ve heard it from my trekkie friend a half dozen times. Fucking wild. Shame that Jeri had to go through that though.

Modernity is such a strange thing

my chemical romance lore…? Or am I missing something here

@paolobacigalupi.bsky.social so…Navola was a brilliant work of fantasy, but it also felt like I was subtly tricked into reading a 600 page prequel. Any word on a sequel?

My gym eyecontactsuationship is getting out of control

no

What a throwback. To be an indie teenager again.

This article might be one of the most damning, of humanity as a species, that I have ever read. Not just the horror of the genocidal RSF in Sudan, but the blatant and obvious turning away of the US and the UK from their obligations in order to keep the UAE happy.

I still cannot get on board with the term “acoustic” for non-electric bikes. Language is always changing, but acoustic relates to sound! I think “standard”, “regular”, “classic” or “non electric” might be fine.

This has been your Saturday afternoon rant.

leave my lesbian honda crv alone

That’s grim.

If billionaires hate something, it’s probably good.

Hello yes I designed and built another lamp. Her name is Calla. #design #productdesign

No I’m preparing them to pick you up

A sporty man

Sporty or something

Another weekend in the city.

Near twilight.
