TIL the original lyrics to Deck the Halls are awesome and “don we now our gay apparel” is temperance movement bullshit
Deck the hall with boughs of holly, Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la! "Tis the season to be jolly: a, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la! Fill the meadcup, drain the barrel, Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la! Troll the ancient Christmas carol. Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la!

One amazing thing about 2025 is that, if you start up an Apple product, it forces you to choose between _three different_ window mangers, but if you start up a clean install of a current version of Linux, it just chooses good defaults for you.
iPadOS screen for choosing between three different ways of managing apps, "Full Screen Apps", "Windowed Apps", and "Stage Manager".

Remedy Entertainment would like you to know that they are from Finland, but very much know what the New York City subway looks like.

Years ago, I was tasked with setting up some broadcasting gear in a fancy conference room I'd never been in. The previous event - an architectural presentation for some new DC memorial, had run way, way over its allotted time.

If the writer’s eyes light up when asked, “why did the character do that?” then it’s real.

These posters for the South Korean stage production of Macbeth are the greatest thing ever? #art
Poster for the South Korean stage production of Macbeth showing Lady Macbeth whose back is turned to us, and Macbeth posed towards us with his hand on the back of his wife's neck. The long cut in the back of her dress reveals skin in the shape of a sword/dagger that Macbeth seems to be holding. Poster for the South Korean stage production of Macbeth showing Lady Macbeth facing us with her cleavage cut into three pointy triangles. Macbeth is kneeling in front of her, away from us, his face in his wife's chest. The exposed skin of Lady Macbeth looks like a crown that aligns with the top of Macbeth's head.
