Yannick Nézet-Séguin is great. Brought excellent anti-stodge surprise selections, theatric fresh air, messaging. Maybe 5% too much foley work, but he's always a good kid (oh and he's 50).

(let's all forget those ballet outfits & whoever was responsible)

I wish the protocolbros would realize the value in allowing videos and photos in the same bluesky post 💁

First time doing croissants. I took the most shortcuts possible, still comes out clean! The crazy OG folding & re-fridging method is 100% not worth it.

I will say some of these cookies are a joint effort

Christmas logging my sweet contributions: sticky toffee pudding in 17s, croissants in 50s, cookies in 5s. Stevia & maple syrup, no junk. Keep those holidays gay and bright, slay ride in the snow..

Let's understand what the "replace workers with AI" means:
-👎Blend other ppl's work, stolen degenerative regurgitation.
-👍Denoise, fill between keyframes, fuzzy pattern-match, bashing.
Don't inadvertently sell an impossible premise of humanless competence, reliability, creative intelligence in A"I".

The sparkling snowfall + rgb effect for Twinkly lights is here: s.twinkly.com/effects?shar...
And the screenshots show how the layers & gradients can look, so you can reproduce in other systems.

Here's a video showing each stage of how to make a nice chunky & sparkling falling snow effect, using 2 cross-gradients, for Christmas 🎄 lights. And my Twinkly lights effect is below.

Another angle of the cozy "fireplace". Soon the sparkly christmas tree 🎄

💁Was about time I updated some public repos. Here's my poor-man's cutting-edge game framework in C++ Vulkan & OpenXR. Enough for a polished vertical slice.
And written for hoomans with blogpost-grade comment blocks!

On One Punch Man Season 1 (2015) vs the Season 3 (2025) slideshow. To put it in shonenjump terms for all the fans: it's not the passion of the animators, it's the suits with golden parachutes that run everything they touch into the ground for 0 consequence, at the expense of you and the animators.

Here's the royalty-free Ember Fireplace twinkly Christmas lights gif I made🎅

Evenly simulates wind blowing through embers, works across different brightnesses, avoids magentas in the transition bw red & pale blue. Blue disappears at <25% so you can set a nice smoulder.

You deliver to yourselves(?) But construct for others(?)
You put too much money into everything except for (and some at the expense of), the ONE thing that matters in DnD: ppl being really into making up a live story for each other while forgetting the audience is even there. 7/7

Brennan Lee Mulligan is upstanding and beautiful, and everyone on Critical Role Campaign 4 is a fun theatre nerd. But there's 2 issues rising over the years: 1. Imagine how little a common peasant in your world would know of whatever da fahk is happening with the high houses of the cities (🧵1/7)

"What do you mean we've only prolonged the mass murders & blocked aid? Listen, if we don't spend it all this year, next year we won't get as much. No, we don't have any efficient drone tech/defense like Ukraine, why?"

Way to fix the industrial wasteland with tariff carnage & later stager capitalismer into the runaway global tech flywheels that can pay tribute. We get Apple & Tesla power plants in east Europe, and Microsoft drinking water. S&P prints lower high, Nasdaq is propped by the Magnificent# concentration.

OD Knock ... Kojumbo who? Kojumbo who wants harderer to be Hollywood-man.
He's got these Lynchian setups, except he cares about the point, and he keeps it behind a high-art curtain, but it always becomes obvious way before he pulls it.
The O in OD stands for OD, and the D stands for PT.

We need more positive coordination. 'Normal people' are nice actually, but most are also (kept) quiet sufficiently for evil to thrive (& erode them further).

We have so much power but succumb to being played by the bad signal-to-noise ratios of resource-abusers. Dare to express & congregate & build
