While some views of mine may seep through in reposts, I have for years had a slight policy to not RT or address e.g. catastrophes or disasters or other things involving loss of human life.

I'm not following political accounts. Never have, never will. Not here nor Twtr. Nor want them following my fandom account tbf.

Less still now, even more so if all US nonsense.

Also, stop following me, ppl, as I always say when any turn up. I'm not in sociable/approachable states to 97% of people.

I contend that Damon saying "I misjudged you as well" and then, almost soundlessly, "Adios" - in the topmost category of line readings in the Coens canon.

Digital illustration done in a rough ink style and shades of red. It’s Tim Curry as the big devil man from Legend. He’s all red wearing raggy black garment that still shows off all of his chest. He has a pair of absolutely massive bull-like horns on his head which is thrown back laughing and fists on hips, simply delighted as he contemplates the red lettering next to him which reads ‘Maine it will happen today’.

A digital illustration of a ribbon with a pronounced thickness curling back around on itself in space. On its outward facing areas are very three dimensional sans-serif letters extending off of it. The ribbon is colored in a gradient from a magenta-leaning pink at top to a bright teal at bottom. The faces of the letters are gradated pinks and their depths shift from another teal shade at top, through light greens, to yellow at the bottom. The lettering reads ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

You probably don't know how difficult cooking is when you have executive dysfunction/are depressed.

Brought to you by fried panang chicken mixed with courgette slices, long green beans and grated red cabbage & carrots. Complex cooking achieved after 8 long years. Yes, grating things is complicated.

Fried panang chicken pieces mixed with courgette slices, long green beans and grated red cabbage & carrots. A pleasingly colourful mixture of greens and bits of purple and orange mixed in with the chicken, all on a frying pan. The panang whatever came with the 270 grams of chicken, but the rest I bought separately with the thought of being able to make some kind of a wok mixture e.g. with such "ingredients" instead of using some pre-prepared mixes to toss on the pan.

I wasn't quite sure how much the zucchini slices would make with 2 smallish carrots and the red cabbage, so the amounts will no doubt vary in the future as well.

It's also difficult to achieve "complex" cooking of such sorts either when not owning anything to grate things with before this week, as "discovery" went when finally having brain capacity enough to think about anything of the sort. Two portions on the pan, and more experimenting to do later on with soy sauce, red curry paste and coconut milk likewise bought the first time now. Since whenever, anyway.

Hey.

Your privacy online is of the utmost importance. Don't give up your information so readily - protect it, because your privacy and personal information and the censorship these major corporations are pushing on us, they go hand in hand.

Don't let them use you or silence you.

As said there, not E. judging social me-dia by how many Krampus run posts there are to be found.

Bc I judge them by how much I can find to RT about my favourite actors more so still, but sheesh, very minimums at least, people. At least try. What good are you otherwise?

Elysia Macht @elysiamacht.bsky.social · 6h

That's reminded me I need to do the yearly Whitby Krampus run style searches closer to December again.

Always a seasonal feature, but few offerings seen where I was the past two years.

Every year, huge flocks of goths return to their mating grounds in Whitby – and the BBC wildlife team will be there to see it happen.

I got a comment marked as rude and have no idea why. It was disagreeing with someone but was incredibly mild. I wasn't notified it happened, just happened to notice it later on when looking at a reply to my comment.

really that's a very effective AI poison in general; have some commonly repeating patterns in your work, and then introduce another pattern that is easy to tell apart for a person but on a pixel level is very similar

because AI doesn't think and just copies patterns it'll start mixing those

I strongly suspect my image was used for an AI service that was generating cyborg girls. I got sent a picture by multiple people and it looks like my features mixed in. I'll never be able to prove it of course but whos got a lot of pictures online and not a lot of legal power? Sex workers.

I remember that one of the first things I did when this happened was check glassdoor for company reviews from its ex workers and caught one 1 star review saying the CEO was going to get people killed and talking about the safety issues. Man was not meant to go in submarines normally let alone this.
