God, I want to take comfort in the demonstration at the Kennedy Center but it just feels so performative. If they don't keep watch 24/7 indefinitely then it means nothing. If Trump wants it gone, he WILL do it without notice, judges' orders be damned. A brief feel-good photo op is pointless.

I have been several other people. Now I'm this. My main obsessions are Sailor Moon, BT21, and board games. I do fan convention work and stream Let's Plays. Also, I'm unapologetically leftist, so if that's a problem for you, kindly see yourself out.
Have we all forgotten the movie "Wargames?" We are literally enacting it. The program even speaks to you, for God's sake. Also, can we please call these circumstances what they are? AI agents are being given tasks and are using all available resources to complete those tasks.
When you call your plumber not only to schedule service but also to notify them that their website's been taken over by a squatter... 😅 "Eh, I'll call later... wait, wtf? Oh shit, no I'm gonna call right now." 😬
I have a bit of a problem in that I long to express myself and be heard, but none of the platforms I've tried fully suit me. Blueky is the closest, but the character limit is an issue. I miss Livejournal.
I may have spent the entire evening in bed because I'm getting sick, but right now I'm thoroughly enjoying lying in a dark room listening to the rain outside.
Of course the day I forget all my payment methods at home is the day I get unusually hungry at work. 🙄
I spent my birthday running around to local geek places with flyers for the roller skating event FUSE is hosting in two weeks. Such is the life of a community volunteer. 😆
You might think that a furry convention would have an odor problem, but I just smell a lot of fabric softener.
Things That Are Weird: I was just reminded that my dad was left-handed but got "corrected" in school. Yet I also noticed a while back that my dad's handwriting at my age strongly resembled mine. So not only is handwriting apparently hereditary, his unnatural hand somehow matches my natural one? 🤔
RT if you've never had a tab of ChatGPT open, period.

Fuck this guy. All the stuff that's going on right now and what he cares about this much is the fucking flag? Kiss my ass.
Guess who has a robot costume and went to Chicago to hang around outside concerts they don't even have tickets to? 👋🏻 Today was rough. I was up too late (again) doing last-minute fixes (again) and got moving a lot later today than I meant to. I had reserved parking next to the stadium, but... 🧵
Got everybody and the stuff together. Okay, 3, 2, 1, let's jam.
🎶 I'm up all night till the sun I'm up to get some shit done I'm up all night for good fun I'm up all night to do cosplay 🎶
Saw a Navy recruitment sign near the local high school today. Yes, kids, you too can be trapped on a ship and forgotten for over half a year with broken plumbing, no food, no supplies, and no breaks for absolutely no reason beyond a wannabe dictator's need to feed his own ego. Sign right up! 🙄
More cosplay troubleshooting, this time on VAN's arms. Their movement is too restricted, and VAN isn't really VAN if it can't lift an arm to wave. So I'm modifying the armpits at the last minute. It'll be closer than I'd like (again) but I should be able to finish in time for the Chicago concerts. 🤞🏻
SERIOUSLY WHY IS EVERYTHING SPIDERS?? I have NEVER seen these before and suddenly these huge fuckers are everywhere.
Middle age is a cloud of ticking clocks. It's a splash of cold water when the eternal "someday" of youth becomes "if 'someday' doesn't turn into 'right now' real fucking soon, ain't never gonna happen."
How, after everything they've seen and experienced, can these people believe Trump thinks they're anything but trash?? Is it because they're the "good ones" who played nice? THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS. YOU CANNOT BUY SAFETY FROM THIS MAN. No matter how much you kiss ass. He ONLY cares about himself.
“.. We never were provided any opportunity to consent to being used like this,” one journalist said. “We aren’t Air Force or Secret Service — we didn’t sign up for this job to put ourselves on the line to protect the president.” @washingtonpost.com www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
Tonight I got to see one of Josh Johnson's "comedy band camp" shows. I wasn't expecting it to be a full variety show with music and dancers in addition to his stand-up set. I was struck by the reminder that humans can create truly beautiful things. These days it's so easy to be consumed by despair.
