What perfect album came out the year you turned 16?

I mean, I know I was 16 and impressionable but you want me to pick just 1 from a banger year?!

Ok fine.

Please quote post a picture where you were completely happy, and nothing else mattered but that moment.

It’s so depressing to look at where the #NYR were 2-3 years ago—with a perennial Vezina candidate, solid veterans and a slew of young talent ready to break out—and then read this 100% correct take.

Whoa. Rare good news from SCOTUS. I was convinced they were going to say “precedent? what precedent…”

Also, this bits needs to disappear.

The funny thing about being a shading/texturing/lookdev person is that my normal friends don’t get it when I want to throw hands when I see things like this….

Timeline cleanse: meet Charlie Mack, our latest foster fail. He’s a 3-ish year old sweetheart who was probably abandoned by his previous family.

Hockey really is an outstanding workout. I also almost got a Gordie Howe hat trick: I only broke up a fight instead of getting in one.

Happy Halloween!

This year we entered our local Halloween decoration contest, primarily because it’s a fundraiser for the Alameda Food Bank. Especially with SNAP benefits about to disappear, please take a moment if you can to support your local food pantry.

Seems legit

We are ready, I think. Alameda doesn’t mess around when it’s time for Halloween. There will be food trucks and live bands down the block; I expect we’ll give away about 1,000 pieces of candy.

Welp ICE is here in Alameda this morning, confirming reports that a bunch of soldier LARPers was going to be stationed on Coast Guard Island. According to citizen journalists, they’ve already fired flash bangs at peaceful protestors outside the entrance to the base.

I noticed this little icon on our new washing machine a month or so back and got very upset.

I’m not a supporter of the Philly sports teams but holy crap do I have respect for the batshit crazy that is the Philly sports fan. Those MFers booed Santa Claus

Oh I don’t get to use this very often anymore! 🥰

But then I got distracted by the question of what happens when you animate the center of the circle as the compass draws, which is neat but very much not gothic architecture.

Ok I was also learning rigging workflows and actually setting keys in blender…
October 20, 2025 at 2:45 PM
Heh. I was so intrigued by this earlier this summer that I actually built a compass in blender

The most depressing thing about this is how open they are about admitting to the world they’re fucking with IP they don’t own. They’re clearly going for a vc-backed “destroy the market” play

But I do gain some hope that their “legendary” ripping off of a media empire garnered a whopping 68 votes.

I’m genuinely confused about this college mailer our daughter got. I guess I’m possibly a little old for having kids in high school but are “kids these days” into their parents music? Who is the person meant to find this aspirational?
