This is my cyclical reminder that there's really only one consistently reliable source of info in the public record that isn't owned by right wing billionaires, who really want to put an end to it.

Please give at least the $2.75 minimum they request if you can.

I'm finding that after all the middle-aged and body-diverse rep in OFMD I'm a bit spoiled, I have a harder time engaging with "young and hot and muscly". Where are the fuzzy saggy bits

Yesterday I saw a dude just casually rocking a Furcon t-shirt and I thought "hell yeah, you do you brother".

Incoming hot take.

I very briefly worked in academia in a non-academic role.

I’d say a solid 50% of the academics I worked with gave zero shots about their output, were there to flex, and would be more than happy to spit out AI “research” to maintain their positions.

Maybe 60%

I had the fucking BEST idea for a book, and I think you’ll love it, and honestly I think it’s kind of genius, and, and… anyway, it’s not what I usually write but I’m going to do it. It’s fanfic adjacent but not so I think it’s a self-publish.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars or Trek), LOTR, or Marvel.

I’m at a cafe and of the three tables I can see, two are solo women reading books, and one is a couple playing cards. This gives me hope.

Worldwide mortality experience since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic (2020-2024) shows excess deaths over that period in almost every country measured. Australia (+6%) was below average, and New Zealand (+0.1%) the lowest we measured.

INTERESTING. Just heard that Heated Rivalry is WAY WAY darker on HBO Max than it is on Crave. Thus a theory: was OFMD S2 actually lit fine but borked by HBO Max? 🤔

"The tune had been haunting London for weeks past. It was one of countless similar songs published for the benefit of the proles by a sub-section of the Music Department. The words of these songs were composed without any human intervention whatever on an instrument known as a 'versificator'."
