Hate to break it to you, but a child living in poverty does, in fact, deserve a birthday cake. If it was bought with SNAP, fine. It does not hurt you in any way, shape, or form and you should not be upset that something as small as a damn cake brought a smile to that child's face. Have compassion.

Is it a big deal that the U.S. president is telling insane lies that he personally rushed to the site of 9/11 and heroically acted like a first responder himself? Sorta seems like it should be! Maybe?
For a certain kind of white man, there is no fear more primal than the fear that the people they have abused will gain power and treat them the same way.

HOWEVER, a higher crafting priority is making a diorama of Clasthamus Isle (Ptolus, Necropolis) because in an upcoming session my barista group is gonna have to defend it overnight from waves of demons and undead, and I want to show context for the various minis-scale encounter areas.
I like this Dwarven Forge set (dunno the name) with the rock tiles turning into shallow pools (color scheme is mine bc brighter colors are more fun). Gonna craft more just-water tiles, and since I cant find a extruded polystyrene at that 3/8" thickness I'll have to trim thicker pieces to fit…

RT if you've never had a tab of ChatGPT open, period. I have never, and will never, use generative AI.
RT if you've never had a tab of ChatGPT open, period. The only AI I 'use' is shit foisted on me - summaries and slop vomited on my screen as part of internet browsing or injected into programs I work with until I turn those settings off or rip those parts out by the roots.
It's finally happened: the improved quality of machine transcription and the greater ability to extract value from unlabelled data means "your tech is eavesdropping on you for marketing purposes" has crossed from "false conspiracy theory" to "true and concerning" www.theverge.com/tech/991190/...

She is ten years younger than my mother.
Happy 72nd Birthday to Ruby Bridges, who at the age of 6 desegregated the New Orleans public schools. She’s younger than 30 senators and our last two presidents—and only 7 years older than Barack Obama. The past isn’t past.

Dude built a really cool custom case for his computer based on the #InvisibleSunRPG, complete with an illuminated Path of Suns board on it! (link has video, this is just a screenshot) www.instagram.com/p/Dcj05q7k7R...
Let me introduce you to the hottest new trend: MIN-MAXXING. Instead of obsessively optimizing a single facet of your life you just put in the minimum, normal amount of effort and stop acting like a complete freak about things.
Me, at farmers market: I want to get one of these “grow mushrooms from a starter block” things. My bride: Okay, honey. Me: is this block a piece of hard bread? My bride: it’s not bread. Mushroom vendor: it’s compacted sawdust!
Realizing the extent to which this is true wildly changed my opinions about how to deal with Trumpism, since they're never going to be satisfied unless they're actively dominating everyone else. You can't give them some concessions and go back to the status quo: they're reactionary revolutionaries.
Antebellum politics is fascinating, the South kept getting policy concessions and whipped themselves up into a paranoid rage anyway, essentially because they couldn't stand being culturally judged for having slaves

Transphobia is always, always, always the gateway drug. If you hear comments about "fairness in sports" or "protecting women's spaces," the homophobia and racism are already there, bubbling along below the polite smile and reasonable tone.
Riley Gaines: "I went to the WNBA game in Minneapolis. It was a bunch of, like, disgruntled lesbians."
This is literally my favorite video game. Someday I will run a TTRPG campaign based on it.
I can't recommend playing Star Control II enough; it's an incredible space adventure that's both humorous and harrowing in places. The Ur-Quan Masters source port from the early 2000s is available on Steam these days and can still be found standalone with its original Star Control name.
The cats graciously put on a magic show for us last night. I figured out how they did most of the tricks, but I didn’t say anything, because that would have been rude.

Don't let your cat outside. Having your cat "stolen" by a neighbor is one of the better things that can happen to them.
Has your cat been gaining weight and staying out at night, only to arrive home reeking of marijuana? These are just some of the signs that a neighbour is trying to entice them away ...
