BY THE WAY

If you've updated to Windows 11 recently, you're probably on version 25H2.

There's a new setting in Settings: Privacy & Security.

Scroll aaaaaaaalll the way to the bottom and you'll see "Text and Image Generation."

TURN IT OFF.

The Regime's goal is to grind everyone down. Plain & simple. Our goal is to refuse this by taking turns to fight where and how we can. When one group needs to bow out, then another group needs to step in and so on. We don't all have to do everything. We can all do something though. Stay in the fight

When a trans woman dies of natural causes, at an age greater than 75, having lived more than half her life as herself, that is cause for celebration, not mourning.

Thank you, Miss Major.

It's no accident that I heard "Boom" on the radio today... unless you count that said radio was at the local cafe that was playing 2000s hits. Either way, looking forward to this one.

Sierra Veins has been one of my favorite EBM producers in recent years, ever since @audioflesh.bsky.social played her at @theination.bsky.social. Now is as good a time as any to get hip to her if you're not already.

Bad Bunny is playing the Super Bowl, which is genuinely wonderful. Also means I'll be getting to take some people off my socials should they complain about it.

Just cuz it's not your speed doesn't mean people don't like it.

I found 'Chocolate Starfish' on CD at a flea market in my hometown's fall festival when I was in middle school. Would not have called them getting a #1 in 2025, but fuck yeah for it.
