... and yet tech companies have the audacity to wonder why literally nobody is excited by (or buying) new tech anymore. I'm literally entering my villain era with this shit.
This sucks ass. When I start my car I want to be able to put my foot on the pedal and drive off. I dont want to watch an ad. A distracting ad. Right in the middle of my console. Again. This sucks ass.
Part of why I love picking up new hobbies is because it's humbling to suck at stuff.
Now, as ever: fuck ICE, and while you're at it, fuck CoreCivic, and fuck the entire prison industrial system.
Prison industry giant CoreCivic announced Monday that it has finalized a five-year federal contract to reopen a long-shuttered prison in Appleton that will now hold immigrant detainees.
Hmm pretty sure the bearings in your trailer aren't supposed to look like this
I do think the run of 90s Depeche Mode albums (1990/1993/1997) comprise most of their interesting and remembered material. Violator -> Songs of Faith and Devotion-> Ultra makes for such a good through-line from them.
What's the best three album run from a band? (the correct answer is Moving Pictures, Signals, and Grace Under Pressure by Rush, but I'm excited to learn second place)
A character I'll always defend from the haters? Motherfucking Neelix. Dude had some capital T "Trauma" and on the rare occasions the writers actually cooked with it he had some absolutely gutwrenching stories. (we don't talk about his relationship with Kes tho that shit was and still is weird)

Name a character you'll always defend from the haters.
I am begging you if you make music online, please let me Buy It. Let me Pay You for downloadable music files. Please exist somewhere other than music streaming services
Damn, RIP Kavinsky Dude was only 50
Random Guy in EVERY comment section 10-15 years ago: "It's not REAL music if you have to use a computer! Pressing buttons isn't talent!" That same guy now: "My AI music is just as good as anything anyone else makes! How dare you ban my art!! You're all Gatekeepers!!"
Anyway I realized today that what I really want out of life is enough money/energy/health/time to start a business where I can just live on a lake and fix/restore boats all day. That sounds really nice.
Coming back from my informal Bsky hiatus because no other social media platform is going to let me scream into the void about how my boss won't stop using ChatGPT to create LinkedIn posts (and promotional graphics) even though he has been repeatedly yelled at by our marketing team not do do this.

Hatred of AI now reaching the level of cultural consensus that becomes attractive to advertisers
idk why anyone says hosting individual, personal websites is the future I'm trying to fix mine for the first time in years and this is the most annoying shit ever
Some of you people genuinely believe that somebody doing something wrong in your periphery amounts to you being personally and directly abused in a way that cannot ever be forgiven, and I understand why you are like that, I empathize, but you are too unstable to be online giving takes on things.
"Me and my circle of friends have known about this issue for years" is not, actually, the same thing as "this issue is common knowledge" and a lot of y'all need to realize that
Perfect night at the lake
There's a certain kind of poster who leverages an information vacuum to "theorycraft" how they think the entertainment industry works in order to justify staying mad about things they were already mad about... a sort of self-styled perpetually besieged media-enjoyer... and I'm just so tired man.
The furry music community thrives on positive creative energy, collaboration, community, and mutual support. If you are dedicated to going out of your way to harsh that vibe, you are leaving yourself behind.

block and ignore negative people who want to tear you down. dont give them energy. dont repost their shit. block and move on. they thrive on drama. life is too short to waste on terrible people.
IDK who OP is (or even what "anti-communist stand-up" even means) ...but Pepper tracking someone down he's got internet beef with at a con just to call them talentless to their face, assault them (?) and then continue following them around is clout-poisoned (and DANGEROUS) behavior if I ever saw it
I was harassed and stalked by Pepper Coyote at Anthrocon. Sunday night, I was by the waterfront hanging with some friends. Pepper then came to our group and started verbally harassing me. (Audio is more important, did not want to point my phone directly at him, but he does pop up eventually)
Hey y'all, I don't post like this very often, but a woman in my orbit is really struggling right now. She's a single mom of two kids who's been battling injuries, hospital bills, and transportation costs. If you've got a couple of bucks to throw her way I know she'd really appreciate it.
