this man should get combat pay bc he was FIGHTING here

I pity the sucker who purchased each Jurassic World Evolution game at full price cause they paid 210$ for one functioning game in 3 installments (ignoring DLCs and expansions).

regular reminder to americans to read the wikipedia page of the german media company that bought politico, axel springer SE, which is probably the dominant force of rightwing propaganda in germany after ww2

I should watch Twin Peaks eventually. I keep seeing things like the Alan Wake series or the Cube Escape series which have its DNA

I have been working this evening at uninstalling a wire shelf the builder put in my extra bedroom (my office) closet when this house was built around 20 years ago. These mounting bits are SATANIC. There is no logical way to remove them without them taking chunks out of your drywall.

Spinosaurus design inspired off of the color patterns of a mudskipper! (One of my favorite animals!!🥺) Mudskippers are so gosh darn adorable 😭 #dinosaur #spinosaurus #paleoart #paleoartist #dinoart #digitalart

I love drawing dilos- they are so aesthetically pleasing to draw 😁! I had the honor of attacking BlastGB’s oc on artfight! Character design was so vibrant and pretty.🤩 #artfight #artfight2026 #dilophosaurus #dinosaurart #paleoart #paleoartist

Sth I just noticed with news coverage of the wildfires is way too many people think they're only evacuating "because of the smoke".

my favourite rendition of the odyssey is still Age of Mythology

Bluesky oldheads will remember that brief period of time when the conservative trolls tried to storm the place and were flummoxed by the idea they would have to organically grow an audience and that someone who didn't want to talk to them could nuke every interaction they ever had from orbit

The source from which this is extrapolated is a study done by a capitalist Swiss bank. This is simply data from capitalists' own data and research. www.interest.co.nz/sites/defaul...

When it comes to Star Wars horror stuff I think I've mostly seen people doing content with the zombie virus. One thing I want to see people try is killer robot action. Make a game where it's Alien Isolation, but the androids are battle droids. Or a game where you're a civilian in an occupied town.

Well, actually, kinda, yeah, close to what happened. It's not for nothing that Jack Dorsey, who started the place and was on its board, basically ran away when the trans folks and furries scared off all the crypto bros he assumed would be the natural demographic here (they went to Nostr instead).

Bluesky often seems like a project run by tech people who place great value on its architectural differences from Twitter, which nobody cares about, while not understanding how they walked ass-backwards into having a userbase (whomst they fear and despise)

One of my US trans students told me last year that she almost never goes to the bathroom at school. Unless it’s a dire emergency, she just holds it. For eight hours.

"To avoid getting into trouble at school, 14-year-old Amelia says she decided to stop drinking water so she would not need the toilet." Hold onto that thought @lucympowell.bsky.social #TransKids www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

#OtD 2 Aug 1980 a bomb exploded at Bologna train station, killing 85 people and injuring over 200. Carried out by neo-fascists, it was part of the Strategy of Tension, a state programme to carry out attacks and blame them on the left stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/9171...

my neighborhood 7-11 closed a couple years ago and tried to reopen but couldn’t get the permit approved because there’s a preschool next door and 7-11s sell alcohol (the previous permit was grandfathered in). i saw a fence going up around the lot recently and looked up what was moving in: a gun shop

rich right wingers and corporations actively destroyed online public spaces where scientists, journalists, educators and progressives could communicate semi-free of harassment then when those internet refugees naturally coalesce in any remaining spaces they get yelled at for being in a bubble

Bluesky’s new CEO wants to grow it all

Bluesky is many different things in a trenchcoat.

"Human nature" is as useful as a concept as looking at a beach, drawing lines between individual grains of sand & concluding that the nature of beach sand is to form the image of a horse. Aside from you just extrapolating from one type of sand & one spot, there's an entire horse you imagined.

I'm not sure folks have realized just how crazy the second half of 2026 and 2027 will be for global temperatures – on the back of a record-smashing El Niño event. Here is my latest estimate of where both years will end up compared to global temperatures since 1850.

There is a political story and context to everything. You can choose not to engage with that context, if you like. Lots of people make that decision. But that doesn’t remove the context from reality. The politics is there. It’s real. It affects people’s lives.

It's like we have the means and technology to make the world a better place, but it might inconvenience some rich assholes, so...

“Chevron just announced its highest quarterly earnings ever. Shell clocked its second-highest quarterly profits. And while ExxonMobil's profits came in beneath what Wall Street analysts had expected, it still managed to double its earnings compared with this time last year.“ Tax them into oblivion.🤬
