The irony of having a broken drawing arm is that I have a lot of situations that would make for funny auto-bio comics but I can’t DRAW them.

*attempts to make Windows remove a previously paired Bluetooth device from the list of devices* Windows: "Remove failed" ??? Even with the decades of monopoly power, I sometimes wonder how Microsoft is still a company.
@DuskDargent This is in no way fair, but after many years of me not caring about hockey at all, my husband got us a bunch of tickets this year, with my uneducated input about which tickets to get. And then the Avs had this season. And *then* they miserably lost the first two games we went to […]

Hate seeing a post by a new artist and having to play the "Is this AI-generated?" game. Often it's *really* obvious, but sometimes you get something where the scene mostly makes sense, but then like there's one hand doing something that doesn't make geometric sense, and a general "off" vibe. And […]

Tonight’s Wikipedia dive is about cotton swabs and I’m thrilled to report that their original name was “Baby Gays”
Impressive aurora over Denver tonight. (Pics over Standley Lake.)
So, I remember that sometime recently-ish I saw a comic with a paramilitary team investigating a house, and they realize that it's covered in half-full water glasses, so someone with ADHD lives there. This comic is now impossible for me to find; does anyone know what I mean?
According to this bus ad, you could be on a Zoom call with a bunch of furries right now.
I've used the doggcatcher app for podcasts for many years, but it's had some random bugs recently, to the point where I finally just googled to see what's going on. Turns out, the developer just stopped developing it I guess? Around 2 years ago? I just didn't notice? Genuinely curious what […]

Indulging my most sick and twisted desire, as someone whose favorite Doritos flavor is Salsa Verde.
[uspol, anti-DEI] Today's little degradation from the Trump administration is this: when one of my collaborators at another institution submits a proposal, even one I only have an advisory role in, I have to ask them to email a short statement that none of the funded activities support "DEI" […]

[no context subtooting about non-fedi conversation] Related: anywhere that anyone is doing things on a volunteer basis, you should default to giving them a bit more grace. Certainly when you’re getting to the levels of accusations about things where I can reasonably ask why you are wanting […]

[US gay rights] Happy 10th anniversary of Obergefell v. Hodges, the Supreme Court case that instituted marriage equality nationwide. We've fallen into dark times since then, but let it be a reminder that some things can change quickly for the better, not just for the worse. And a reminder to […]

Apparently, before leaving Twitter, I renamed one of my (basically unused) accounts to "Elon Musk farts". Then forgot that I'd done so, and half-forgot that I even had the account. Thus, I ended up with this email.
I just learned that the Game Boy Advance didn't have an FPU, and I don't know who to share that information with that would be similarly surprised.
was just reminded of how much I love the debugging manifesto poster that Inner Loop Press designed for Wizard Zines, you can get it for $20 US + shipping here: https://store.wizardzines.com/products/poster-debugging-manifesto I'm SO delighted with how it […] [Original post on social.jvns.ca]
[uspol] Whelp, the president's budget request now calls for all atmospheric and earth system science in the Department of Energy to be cut. So, between that and the other agencies' cuts... there's a good chance that I and 95% of the people I've ever worked with in climate and environmental […]

Last night I listened to a podcast about Steve Harvey and exchanged multiple jokes with my husband about how he would be a terrible man to date or sleep with. My subconscious responded by turning many of my dreams this morning into a quest to sleep with a bald, mustachioed older black man, who […]

[uspol, climate science] Between the election and inauguration week, my lab was like, "Well, Democrats fund green energy and related applied science projects more, but Republicans support basic science research that industry doesn't do, so we're fine. Trump's first term wasn't as bad as people […]

On this Easter Sunday, as has often happened over the last decade, my parents have hinted that they have trouble making friends and wish they knew how I do it. I don't know how to tell them "I actually still suck at making friends, but if you're a queer furry with the means, motive, and […]
