I feel this on a subatomic level.
The Northern Lights were spectacular tonight. They actually danced over our heads.
Just watched the clip of what Great British Bake Off did to the s'more. It was a travesty. GBBO, after Mexican week, now this... you guys need to go outside and touch grass.
Been watching a lot of Halloween DIYs as I do this time of year and I must say I am really conflicted about projects that use books. Sure, it may be a book no on wants anymore, but it's still a BOOK. I just can't bring myself to destroy a book (any book) for the sake of decor.
Love this time of the year, I can’t wait till Fall is officially here. #kidlitart #halloween #halloweenart #illustration #fallisforwitches
Time-line cleanse and proof that beauty still exists in the world.

Time to gear up for spooky season!
It is. Time me me to hydrate.

#bloomscrolling A bit of sunshine and some time outside makes things a little bit better. 🌱🌴🌺
this is, hands down, the best video I've seen on men's influencer content and it's not close either
Just had to purge my YouTube feed of political channels. Not stuff I subscribed to, but an assortment of things volunteered by the algorithm. Keeping up with the news is one thing, but the sensationalism and vitriol has just become too goddamn much. Man, I'm tired.
If you arranged a prison break and managed to make it back to the convent maybe you didn't need to be in a care home? just saying
insane that people are getting in trouble for just quoting Charlie Kirk point blank. many of these people are not even expressing support for what happened to him, just quoting him & questioning double standards in how we respond to violence. we live in a far-right culture

I am so off-the-charts sick of looking for a job. I got rejected from one application today within 15 minutes of applying. (Tell me you're using AI to assess resumes without telling me you're using AI.) Clearly, as an older woman, I am unworthy of active employment. AI says so.
Well, at least there will be snacks.
Oregon state Rep. Cyrus Javadi announced on Friday that he's leaving the GOP.
"Dragscrolling" By me and @nadinescholtes.bsky.social I love what Nadine did with the cat here so much! (The new political cartoon collection was named after this cartoon: www.amazon.com/Why-Must-The... ) Read more cartoons! ---> #PoliCartoon
GODDAMN IT.
1. RFK Jr. is a dangerous eugenicist and no one should believe any "study" he comes out with about anything 2. the main cause of Autism is that the human brain doesn't really have one "normal" mode and we only just started realizing that in the last few decades. 3. neurodivergence isn't a disease.
WOW.
Scam alert.
I use the Banana Spits theme as my son's ringtone on my phone.
I didn’t know about this, and if I didn’t know about this, then you probably didn’t either. This should be my entire feed and it’s not and that’s a problem  This sit in has now been going on over 48 hours and I am just hearing about it now 1/
“They’re taking our jobs” was always a lie. Alabama proved it. Alabama tried a “tough” immigration law, and it backfired hard. Immigrants fled, crops rotted, and farms collapsed. Americans tried to step in but couldn’t last a day. They’re not taking your jobs; they’re doing the jobs you won’t do.
a friend and I went downtown this evening to scream in the streets with thousands of our neighbors. @theonion.com was also at the protest this evening and they were pulling no punches
Hey @lauralaker.bsky.social @peterwalker99.bsky.social @christianwolmar.bsky.social @modacitylife.com — all of your books, like mine, were used for this LLM and you could get $3k per book. List of nicked books here: www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...
The question, at least, is totally fair.
We need Colbert’s bold and frank commentary now as much as ever, and we need to stop corporations like CBS from cowing to political intimidation of this administration. Add your name to the petition to demand they reverse their decision and keep Colbert on air!
I didn't make the polish sausage joke. Nor did I explode in a burst of technicolor anxiety. As for the results, we shall see.
Job interview in 25 minutes. Think good thought.
I already disliked lofi music for other reasons but one reason is how much art is stolen for them, I am now a member of the club too. It is funny to be reminded how much my style has changed but fuck youuuu Getting stuff on youtube knocked down is new to me, any tips?
So, dopamine "supplement" patches are all the rage on TicTok right now. Five bucks says they turn out to be addictive.
I've been there, man. I've been there.
Illinois Gov. Pritzker ahead of Trump National Guard deployment: "To Chicagoans... Look out for your communities and your neighbours. Know your rights. Film things that you see happening... Authoritarians thrive on your silence. Be loud for America."
Wealth taxes NOW. It’s patriotic to do your part and fund society for the workers you exploit in order to get this rich. #taxtherich
RIP Graham Greene. Every time he popped up on screen when I was a kid, my mom would excitedly point him out for being an actual Native on the screen. Able to be deadly serious and infinitely hilarious (even in smaller roles like Last of Us), he ate up the screen. Nʌki’wah brother.
I wish every state in the union had legislators like these two in Oregon, pushing for a state constitutional amendment “prohibit law enforcement officers from wearing face coverings and would require them to wear ‘official uniforms’ with badge numbers and names.” www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...
Every single convention organizer, publisher, art director, project manager, etc. who's even once entertained the thought of using genAI imagery or LLM generated text at any stage should be paying *full* attention to how popular DragonCon is becoming for enforcing their "no genAI" policies.
Of course.
Current mood.
Offered without comment, just a profound sense of exhaustion.
They’re totally going to do this.
This one is only for Blueskyers of a certain age.
Our country is being destroyed. But hey, look at these eight Maine Coon kittens.
All meant to be remade... eventually.
Fair.
My new shop/workspace is coming along nicely. It's good to get all my supplies and tools in one workable space again.
So, despite the migraine, I took my son to a movie. I will pay for it tomorrow, but it was worth it.
you're the main reason to keep on going
"Last year McDonald's withdrew AI from its own drive-throughs as the tech misinterpreted customer orders - resulting in one person getting bacon added to their ice cream in error..." I don't see the problem.
Love this for them
Ah yes, the greatest presidential scandal of our lifetime...
It's never "just about fairness in sports"
And now, a brief time-line cleanse.

Every day is asking too much from me

This is good: With Trump/RFK destroying CDC, JB Pritzker's officials are exploring the possibility of buying Covid vaccines from manufacturers and distributing them in-state themselves, source tells me. Dem govs must step up and fill the void. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1998...
Defunding research into treating brain cancer among children seems bad.

Dramatic time-line cleanse.
It's done. 3 coats of polycrilic, some sanding, and voila! And yes, Andre, the French T-Rex is still there.
People are shouting "LOOK HE'S THE BEST WE CAN DO" about the Governor of California, meanwhile the Governor of Illinois is out here talking like John Wick while *also* standing up for trans people.

The pattern of removing actual experts who tell the truth even when it's not what the great pumpkin wants to hear continues.
My current #Godot project has golf and I'm trying to recreate the sort of view seen in 8-bit games like Leaderboard. Here's a demo showing how data is pulled from a top-down map layout (right of screen, won't be in game) to create the false perspective rendered on the left of the screen.
It seems one of my favorites, American Science and Surplus, is going out of business (online at least.) Everything is on sale, so, if you need some weird and disparate items...

PragerU (not accredited by anyone) is cranking out the White Nationalist propaganda.
Florida bans the Diary of Anne Frank. A literary classic that serves as a cautionary tale about the rise of fascism and the importance of documenting atrocities as they’re occurring. We all must document this time in history. Keep copies. Write everything down. Make sure that the truth will out.

Oui! Oui!
Congrats on your Sassy French T-Tex stain (he has a Beret)
I thought she only claimed never to have seen him act inappropriately with minors *in her presence.* That's a far cry from asserting he never did it and was always angelically good.
