Well, it's been a year. And I've only now posted two more decks, with a third being edited. Also been some tweaks to the old postings, but very minor.
I am exhausted, my budget is trashed rn, and I can't muster the energy to engage in a bunch of stuff outside of work, but at least the Bears are having a good season.

ngl, that score probably won't climb for a long time unless certain things change in a hurry.

I know it has been glaringly obvious for a while, but the only way the could be more obvious now that they are fucking Nazis is if they start changing policy for march and salutes to goosestepping and seig heils.
I don't know who needs to hear this, but there's actually no need to tolerate swastikas in our military ever. We don't need policy papers on this. We don't need long discussions and to "better understand" those who wear them. We can just ban all Nazi imagery and call it a day.

Oh? Oh-hoh, legal win for protestors that flew under the radar for me, and precedent for picking apart qualified immunity.

We could have had Muppet Knives Out? *sobs at the loss to the world*
Am I a hypocrite for wanting this after giving a hard no to muppet knives out
Okay, I'm making my case for the only Muppet I want to see on Broadway right now...

The plan for today was to go to bed at 09:00, get up at 14:30 to take care of pre-work things, and got to work at 17:00. It is now 12:50, and I could not fall asleep thanks to my sinuses deciding today was a good day to drain poorly whenever I attempt to lay down. *sob*

This week's baking: vegan pumpkin cookies! Aiming for bite-size this year (I made a batch of fist-sized pumpkin cookies around this time last year)

alright, now I'm laying down.

I was feeling kinda tired and ready to lay down for a bit (I work overnights, so laying down now is a nap, not sleep), but Game 3 of the World Series is looking like it's gonna go 18 innings and now I must not sleep.

Ugh. So tired from work last night that I don't even want to get out of my car to go to bed in my apartment. Gonna do it anyway, because it's warm in there.

I love Flavor Text Friday, and here's my contribution, from on of my favorite removal spells during WAR limited.

"Liliana whispered to whatever conciousness Oketra and Bontu had left. 'You are the gods. He is the usurper. You know what to do.'"

Thanks to my recent trip across the country with the family, I was mildly reinspired to get back into making food for myself. Behold, my lunch for the next two days (recipe in alt text):

Had a disappointing conversation with my favourite aunt last night, where apparently using my preferred pronouns is 'crossing a red line' for her. I thought I handled the conversation well, but now I'm curled up with the family dog in tears because the person whom I thought the best of in my family-

I have nothing nice to say about the life of the manchild who was killed today, so I will opt to say only that. Thumper's mom was a real one.

I started with one among 1, 2, and 3, but I'm not 100% sure which. The first system I played at home was the Genesis, but my cousins had an Atari 2600 (which I later learned that my mother had one stashed away as well, now in my possession) and a NES hookup in their basement.
Which controller did you start with?

This is... good news? On my feed? Amazing.

Strongly resisting the urge to ask a random rich puke the question "...did you drown?" a day after they deflected a pointed observation if them being a conservative coward by saying they'd cry themselves to sleep in their heated pool.

Hope this also makes Wendy's rethink their AI drivethrus.

This is the best news I've heard in... quite a while. I'm only sad I haven't made a contribution that would enjoin me to file a claim.
AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action
Advocates fear such settlements will “financially ruin” the AI industry.

It's apparently @hobbesq.bolasgang.com's birthday, so I am obligated to say nice things about him today. Not to say that I wouldn't normally, ofc. Most of the time. He knows what he did.

Hey, @moderation.bsky.app, this suspension of BugsMatrix is sketch af. Banning high profile trans posters because they express distaste for one of the richest TERFs on the planet is a pretty bad look when those same trans people helped build your site up to where it is now.
