the oscilloscope can produce mind-boggling effects 💀
Guys will listen to male influencer bullshit about needing to have a six pack and manipulate everyone and meanwhile women will go “you know who is the sexiest fucking guy I’ve ever seen?” and post this

It will be worse than this! Most websites will be forced to ask you to send your ID to a third party surveillance service, adding a credit card won't be enough for most. Bluesky asks for your *social security number* if you live in Texas now, due to this shit. Call in, and kill it.
This will be the US if the SCREEN Act passes. Call your Senators before August 5 and tell them that you oppose the SCREEN Act, KOSA, and the KIDS Act. Use the official lookup tool at www.senate.gov/senators/sen... to find yours by state.
This is ridiculously scary. Yes, we are currently talking about ballrooms and reflecting pools and inflation and Iran and Venezuela and Epstein and crypto grift and the moral rot of the GOP. But all that is going to be forgotten soon. Shit is about to get real, as they say.
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.

Amazon feeds Twitch into the AI furnace, hoping yet another piece of once-lived in furniture will keep the debt fires burning one day longer. Break the chair's legs off. They're down $309.1B. Rip the chest's drawers out. $309.2. Cut through the desk with a handsaw. $309.3. Nobody needs to live here
Twitch and Amazon are apparently planning to use streams to train Generative AI. Multiple sources tell me it will be announced in the coming months, despite some internal friction against it. Creators may be able to opt out of some training data.
there's no other way to frame this except that ai companies and users are fundamentally against human society in every way
No longer content with pillaging intellectual work and dismembering our environment (already critically weakened), AI companies are now hellbent on destroying books galore including rare editions. Shut down these nefarious enterprises already.
If you've got even an ounce of a soul in your body, you don't touch anything by ModRetro. It's too intrinsically linked to Palmer Luckey and his cohorts. I know the vast majority of you haven't and won't, but it's always worth a fresh reminder.
The chintzy-looking M64 clone console of the N64 by a company named ModRetro has been released, I think, I don't pay attention that closely to shit. But as the great @frankcifaldi.bsky.social posted before, it is our civic duty to push back against this company and shun ANYONE who doesn't.
bearsharktopus.itch.io/solipcyst Solipcyst is a free visual novel developed for the Toxic Yuri VN Jam II by @lonestareq.bsky.social and I In Solipcyst, you take control of a manipulative therapist using her knowledge of psychology and psychiatry (and puzzles!) to make a patient do what she wants.
that is in fact literally in the bible. it's Matthew 6:5.
Rep. Lauren Boebert insists that public Christian worship events are necessary for America to experience revival: "I don't think that Jesus ever called for any Christian to pray only silently or to keep their faith hidden only in the prayer closet."
as a society we are well past due in establishing No Content Zones where making shit for tiktok is explicitly forbidden
Evangelist Whitney Lynn says she preaches on planes because she loves “a captive audience.” She's not alone. It's becoming a trend. If spreading your message requires listeners who can't escape, maybe it's not as compelling as you think. www.friendlyatheist.com/p/christian-...

Over a year ago, we built a prototype for a new Myst Universe game meant for publisher eyes only. This project is NOT in active development, but we're proud of the work the team did, and wanted to share it with you all. Presenting: Project Anglerfish. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZvNGt02yZNc
The US is at 2,318 confirmed measles cases as of July 23. That is the most in any single year since 1991, and we still have five months to go. I wrote "Measles: We're So Fucked" in May of 2024. There were 131 cases when I wrote it. 🧵 www.patreon.com/posts/measle...

Some game soundtracks are so evocative of the experience of playing that game that you want to dive in as soon as you hear it. For me this is one of those. Time to go exploring!
Good idea to start mentioning the PROTECT Act as something to oppose now when making your calls to representatives
The PROTECT Act requires all internet platforms (like this one) collect model releases and government IDs for everyone in anything nude or sexual. Not just OnlyFans, but Heated Rivalry and Hunting Wives and Mapplethorpe and top surgery photos.
This utter muppet of a conservative Canadian politician in New Brunswick forgot to remove the LLM text from his floor speech and read it out loud.
"Oh this is very different from the mortgage debt that destroyed the economy the last time" they said, as they did the same thing that destroyed the economy last time (but in a little hat)
«Japanese financial newspaper Nikkei Asia found in a recent investigation, just five US tech giants — Alphabet, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, and Oracle — are hiding an estimated $1.65 trillion in debt that doesn’t appear on balance sheets»
There's some people saying "please no AI, please no AI" and I'm sorry to say that's the game's landlord.
