Win10 users, today's the day they make all big holes in your PC and all the hackers swarm into them...

...unless you click "no thanks actually" in which case they just actually keep supporting Win10 for another year for some reason. here's how:

James Wallis @jameswallis.bsky.social · 2d

Windows 10 users in the EU and UK, you can get free Extended Security Updates for a year just by:
> Settings > Windows Update > Check for updates. Click.
Scroll down to Enrol in Extended Security Updates (or similar wording).
Click on it.
Follow prompts.
Bingo, you're good for a year.

Ea-Nāşir's perfidy seems eternal!

Comic

Panel one. Stick finger singing, "Raindrops on rose/ And whiskers on kittens."

Panel two. Same stick figure holding pot and singing, "Bright copper kettles leave/ ...Flakes on my mittens!?"

Panel three. Same figure still holding pot and singing, "Hey, these are stone with a copper veneer!"

Fourth panel. Same stick figure has put down pot and is singing, "I've been bamboozled by Ea-Nāşir!"

Ich habe masks schon ein paar mal als GM gespielt, würde es aber suuuper gern mal als Player spielen, und bin auch sehr happy Dinge auszuprobieren, weil ich auch das Gefühl habe, das System noch kennenzulernen, also count me in! (auch meinerseits noch sehr unverbindlich etc etc)

Griddlehark modern au shenanigans ✨

A full illustration of Modern AU of The Locked Tomb series. Harrow and Gideon are sitting on a bench in the street while Pal and Cam pass them by cycling. At the end of the street you can see the Tridentari and their cav. Ianthe looks furiously at Gideon and Harrow.

despite the fact that many people have told me all my life that I seem like I enjoy the sound of my own voice, after 2 weeks of audiobook recording and editing, I can confidently say I absolutely never want to hear my own voice again

Every smartphone in the world contains a CPU descended from one designed by a trans woman in the 1980s. The Matrix is one of the most influential movie franchises of all time. Electronic music was pioneered and popularized by a trans woman. I could go on

i think my favourite part about being a trans woman is how much of an impact we have on culture. a friend reminded me today about a popular meme format she created. another friend today casually told me about how she was the most notorious roblox hacker when she was a child.

just a day in the life!

Tbh Rylie shouldn't count for this bc there's no partners or crushes or anything (yet??) - but tbh her type are people who could take her in a fight. In whatever way.

Can’t decide what to buy on Prime Day?

Try: absolutely nothing, and then go support indie bookstores instead 📚
