So, the prior comment about the woman who raised a pet beaver… lemme guess, every time she takes a shower, by the time she opens the door, every non-stationary object in the house has been dragged in front of the bathroom door.

Brothers, I am AFAB, and this picture still reminds me of one of my most infuriating roommates.

Trust me, in this hypothetical, she’d annoy me a little too.

This song explains why.

Seriously?? That’s the price of FIFA’s bribe? Not, idk, “Call off your ICE ghouls at the next match, because we need to sell tickets?”

You know… there’s a Space Hippies AI Personality mod on Steam. It’s actually really funny.

Stellaris players: How it feels to have a Spiritualist empire on one side of your border and a Materialist empire on the other.

Bastard in a Pasture

Sent this to a friend. Xe laughed and said, “If they have an issue with it, they can come find me and tell me. Good luck, BTW, we make up less than 1% of the population. If people that rare are pissing you off, find a fucking hobby.”

I might just be a massive god damn nerd, but I would rather build my own with an old Pixel, a printer, and a Pi. If I can’t be up to my elbows in its guts, from board to code, then it isn’t mine.

Right? AI-generated pictures of Scarlett Johansen as a flight attendant praising Jesus, or an African kid making sculptures of Jesus out of trash. And all the comments just being ‘Amen’ spam. Bots on top of bots. It’s just fucking dystopian.

Not maintaining artificial connections with people who would reach out to me if they actually gave a damn about me has genuinely been liberating.

I like how Discord- and Slack-like socials are set up. It’s just more natural. Instead of a feed, it’s a forum. It feels more like a physical place, with couches for discussion, corners of the room where people take conversation, and a hall outside for privacy. And if you understood that metaphor, then you know how I feel.

And if I don’t like a server, I can just… leave. Never have to run into them again, but still have access to friends. No holes in the conversation where an obvious block or ignore leaves gaps.

Jesus, fuck, at that point I would pack my quilts and sleep outside. Because fuck that.

I think he found it.

Same. Fiction or fact, this is funny enough and harmless enough to just shrug and say, “He must be a wizard, whoever he is.”

Let’s start with the part that makes people think this inbred Neanderthal is the ideal.

I SAID EARTHBENDING STYLE!!

Yeah, this dude looks like he’d space a dude who just killed the entire court room to get his death sentence commuted.

hehehehe You know, it’s hilarious that you say that. Nobody ever realizes that they’re talking to a starving homeless person on the internet when they meet one, do they? Believe it or not, quite a few of us do have jobs. Not all of us are disabled or addicted. That is the problem with the society we live in. We’re invisible until we talk to you.

Me, bottom 10%, making coffee for a paycheck and scavenging my new pair of pants from a dumpster: Yeah, man, you said it.
