A Corpse

The techbros are doing "I don't kill people, my gun kills people". If we let them get away with this, we give them permission to do anything.

The dry spell continues. The fake "art" influx has really destroyed so much, & frankly no one wants to pay for art when they can just generate it. The current economy is certainly not helping. I'm a 25+ year creative; no BS, just damn good art: ko-fi.com/htschermsmey...

Reminds me of the BH-209's infamous "THOOOM" from @howardtayler.bsky.social's Schlock Mercenary series. 😀

I had no idea rebuilding was even an option. I've discarded so many.

OK so, what was the best thing *before* sliced bread? 🤔

#StationNews: Auckland Transport has confirmed the names of the new robot cleaners for the City Rail Link stations. Robot Downer Junior Fat Freddy's Mop Meryl Sweep

This graph is amazing.

Another brand for the "Never purchase" list.

Me when the game I'm playing at 2am has a white loading screen. #NMS

It's been such a drought for incoming work. Things are stressful & I know I'm not alone in the worries. I could really use some orders asap to pay bills!! If you can help, pls place an Art Comm order today! 🐯💗tyty ko-fi.com/htschermsmey...

Actively seeking prospective Clients for Art Comms! My schedule is clear for new orders for July or August. Check out my Ko-Fi page for details/place an order! (gotta love how the image link is broken, but it is a valid link, promise!!) You matter💗 ko-fi.com/htschermsmey...

It's been fascinating to follow AI industry's journey from "it's smarter than your experts!" to "at least it's cheaper than a human" to "your annual token budget ran out in March"

Rockstar have the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever and just keep delaying #GTA6 over and over until every other studio dies of financial blueballs.

I'm about to just block all .ai domains at the mail gateway. You can tell they've scraped our site and are just churning and extrapolating based on a few misinterpreted bits of info and the resulting sales pitches are so far off the mark nobody could ever think it's a useful product.

C-suite who are all-in on AI think they're replacing employees (who are disloyal, fallible, and demand increasing compensation) with robots (infinitely loyal, reliable, and cheap) and instead they're getting things that are worse on all fronts. Supremely gullible.

Stimpy was just as important to the show but he never gets his own fair. 🥺

I just ran into the most random IT issue I've had in years. An HP840 G9 would not power on. Take it apart, starts fine. Reassemble it, dead. Long story short, It was sitting on a nearly identical Elitebook 845 G9. When they're stacked, the top one cannot power on. NFC? Something magnetic? 🤷

10/10 no notes.

We can't combat an exercise in power & domination over trans youth by showing them the errors in their homework. The errors here are so obvious. They are intentional. They are almost showing off - how little pretense at 'evidence' is needed to subjugate trans youth.

Thanks, vibe coders. Hope you're enjoying producing trash as your skills evaporate. They do say ignorance is bliss, you're on your way to ecstasy.

Big tech: "Hey man nice eggs you got there you wanna put those all in my basket? It's a really cool basket. You can set a background on it. Just gimme all those eggs I'll take extra good care of 'em. I saID GIMME THOSE F'ING EGGS I mean hey yeah we're cool we're all cool just pass them here..."

The length an epilepsy warning stays on screen on game launch sequences is getting so short, it might soon trigger a seizure all by itself.

Just FYI, if I say "with all due respect", you can freely assume that that means zero respect. None whatsoever.

Age verification? I know what a pencil has to do with an audio casette.

The future is here, everyone. Rejoice. (Note: after its response the text box was removed, there is no actual text field or button for me to request an agent).

We know you disabled copilot in the start menu, but surely you want it in Word, right? No? Edge then. Edge. No, Edge. THE BROWSER! Yes sure the blue Google. No? Wow. OK how about Paint? Still no?!? But surely in Notepad, you're fine with that, right? Jeeze I'm starting to think you don't like AI!

I couldn't recommend Hermsie more. She's fast, responsive, and a fantastic artist. Love my emote. 😍

Just contacted a company we bought a $200 license from in 2018 and asked about transferring the software to a new PC and they said "Yep just install the trial, send the code and I'll send you a new key." I wish every software company was like that.

I love fall! 🍃🍂 That crisp air; breezes with a little more bite to them. Blanket weather!! Ok, shameless self-promotion time: 4rt C0mmis5ions OPEN for folks seeking a skilled artist to create their next avatar &/or logo, next set of emotes, & more! Links in Bio 🐯🎨💖 tyty

I had to download a group policy template today to manage NOTEPAD on our corporate PCs. It contains a grand total of ONE setting; disabling the AI slop generator. #microsoft #enshittification

One goal in life is to live long enough for people to start asking me "What's the secret to your longevity?" and then I can have some real fun with the answers.

I've made an alt account for day to day news, politics, and other real life fuckery. This is my main account, for gaming, fun stuff, and keeping up with friends. For people in that group, my apologies for the brief descent into madness. I'll keep that crap sequestered from now. 🖖

This current/next generation is going to misinterpret the term "hired goon" so badly...

Guess at least Americans can stop calling their backwards-ass measurements "freedom units" now.

Post a gif of who you wanted to be as a kid.

Late night/early early morning stream for @gamersvsms.bsky.social relay 2025! We've got Sun Haven, cozy vibes, sleep deprivation and many terrible treats. Get in here and be cute! www.twitch.tv/bunbarian

"Don't let the system get you down."? Fuck that. Let the system get you down. Let the system make you introspective. Let the system make you ANGRY. Let the system get scared as it realises it can't control you. Let the system burn to the ground. The system broke the deal and is no longer useful.

Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime, that's why I poop, on company time. Owner makes a dollar, I make a cent, how am I supposed, to pay my rent? CEO makes a billion, I live in a ditch. It's well past time, to eat the rich.

TODAY: Raising money for the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO). We have over $1000 worth of community and Star Citizen prizes up for grabs. Huge thanks to @robertsspaceind.bsky.social for their generous support of this cause. Come hangout, we'll be featured on #Twitch FrontPage

When a streamer plays a game off-stream. (butchered version of a comic strip by TryingTimesComic, who seems to only be in those other places for now)

So, just for the record. This is how you'd do a "My heart goes out to you" gesture. Not like that other guy. Y'know, for clarity. Just in case anyone's still confused.
