Treppan, 37, They/Them (or "Dog") Barking around the Bluegrass (Lex KY) Former telecom worker. Gardening, nature, computers and games. In a polycule with other weirdo furries and one normie that tolerates us. Ask about my AD, I guess?
✈ My most deluxe and anticipated cursor set thus-far... 🍚 🌌Latios & Latias!🗼 Fitting these two into such small canvas sizes was a unique struggle, but I am so so happy with how they came out. 💙💖 📝More info below! ko-fi.com/s/da9be980ac
How players act when they want you to give them inspiration on their next roll.
“Dog eat dog world” is a weird phrase because I have never seen a dog eat another dog. Lizards on the other hand are eating each other every day, around the clock
Spotted a very cool atmospheric optics display today! There's a 22° halo, a circumscribed halo, two sun dogs, and a full parhelic circle! Thanks to @downhillcarver.bsky.social for pointing it out to me! Details of each element in the alt-text.
"Big Green Weirdo" 5"x4" water-soluble graphite, colored pencil, and paint pen on mounted scrap paper & wood Just a big silly guy!!
It would be the funniest thing in the world if GTA VI is mid and everyone refuses to move on from V, where they have lived for a decade+. I feel like there's a nonzero chance of this happening, too. The way they've taken all their preorders and haven't shown gameplay... what if it's just so boring
Been begging my body to play nice for the upcoming weekend and I get hit with a minor gout flare-up, hip flexors messing with my back again (probably from resting with feet elevated), and food poisoning, all in a row. Hopefully it's done acting up? I feel mostly fine today, just exhausted.
Stressed out but mostly excited about concert/friends Soon™
I saw this picture and immediately had to show it to some level designers.
AI RANT Following the cancellation of three major debut book deals over AI suspicions, I decided to put my own (needless to say, 100% human-written) prose to the test. My detector of choice was Originality AI, and the results proved to be jarring, to say the least. 🧵1/5
My notion of the ideal knight is an Orc named Dumbuk gro-Bolak. He serves with the Legion under General Darius up in Gnisis. You'll usually find him in the barracks. Look him up. He knows his trade, and Vvardenfell.
I don't want to be mean but y'all gotta stop using the word degenerate. Get the Nazi words outta your life, don't buy into that worldview even a bit.
it took me an unfortunately long time to realize they weren't against universal healthy care because they couldn't economically do it, they were just against it on principle, their principle being, everyone poorer and more in need than me can just die
“A single-payer universal health care system could cover every American, save more than 100,000 lives a year, and still cost $1 trillion less than the system it would replace, according to a new preprint study led by researchers at the Yale School of Public Health.” ysph.yale.edu/news-article...
Literally one of the best to ever do it. Up there with Larson, Watterson, and Breathed
The fundraising texts you delete are working on someone. It’s infuriating and heartbreaking. An 85yo in Ohio gave more than double the value of his home. A 91yo in an Indianapolis senior facility gave 25K times. The DCCC/DSCC don’t just tolerate the spammers who exploit seniors. They take part.
Hook and Squeeze
How Democratic consultants, committees, and party leaders built a fundraising spam pipeline that funnels money from a captive pool of elderly donors into their own operations.

This is how I feel about a lot of weird chudcore gamer aesthetics. It's heresy, but I just don't like Warhammer, Doom or Diablo. When the entire world is skulls, blood, death, and muscle, none of those things are remarkable in the foreground. Oh no! A tree, in this forest? Give me contrast!
Kinda topical right now, but I'm completely over the maximalist edgelord aesthetic a lot of games have. Mork Borg is kinda the big one, and I'll give it credit for being a good artbook, but everything from its spinoffs to Shadowdark to the new edgy DnD settings and whatever, I'm so over this stuff.
Did they dip the servers in the pool again or are the people running this place just vibing too hard
