It's your tinker genet. Viverridae vivacious. Can't see the greymuzzle if already a grey genet. They/them. Maker of things, crisper of circuitry, sculpter of stuff. Ebikes, furry things, electronics tinkering and props.

Rain expected, and I'm off to go ride GVRD roads again because it's the season when the city works trucks park on the entire separated bike lane so they can do tree work.
Witness me.

Alternatively, taking a genet out to lunch or dinner, but then having to get them off the table once the food arrives, because they're doing that solitary critter food aggression thing, propped up sideways, arching, bristletailed, hissing defensively at anything that moves towards the food.
Trying to take a genet anywhere, but you can't convince them to climb down off that tree and stop bristling at anything moving nearby.

The back catalog thing really hits home: They only didn't use it then because they couldn't.
If they're unethical enough to use it now, they were likely always that unethical, and you should not support thieves.

Every time I learn that a game was made using AI, I make a note to never buy it. Every time I learn that a games company is using AI without disclosing it, I make a note to never buy anything from them ever again, even items from their back catalogue predating gen-AI.

If the CEO of a company says anything favorable about generative AI/LLMs, the whole company goes in the trash. You know if they feel comfy enough to say shit like that, they're pushing people down river from them to use it / outright requiring it.

Daily reminder:
If you're only getting mockery for your argument, it might not be that your point is unassailable.
You might just be totally clownshoes and not worth the effort.

Yeah in the fucking 19th century when they were still paid by the nobility to spend years working on elaborate works to decorate their manors and not the 21st century when they’re almost universally making below the American minimum wage and are trying to have food to eat and pay their rent you cuck
i mean if you'd read a page of marx you would know that independent artisans are in fact definitionally petit bourgeois but your politics seems to be based more on vibes than analysis!

Ontario's got the right idea for a change. Now try to keep up, BC.
Woah!
Ontario passed a law starting Jan 2026 that it is illegal for companies to ghost you.
If you have interviewed for a job they are legally required to inform you if they hire someone else or close the position.
The law also requires salary transparency on listings and disclosing use of AI

When designed most considered the short tailed weasel to be nearly perfect. However, it was later acknowledged that since mustelids are known for being long putting a short tail on one was a rather egregious mistake.
Fortunately this was corrected in the follow-up model, the long tailed weasel.

Alt-text your images please, folks. Even the barest summary is better than "image"
so many screenreader users just hear “image. image. image.” over and over again.
idk, if it were me, i wouldn’t want to spend much time online at all if i had no idea what anyone was talking about or reacting to.
yet the internet is also a lifeline for many disabled folks.
