Media I swear I am not making up: Remember that time Mickey Mouse was cursed for hubris and forced to wander the Earth alone and without identity?

Dumb predictions for the SF2 movie: At some point M. Bison will deliver the line "I'm not a superhero!"

A brain worm I feel the need to give to others: Deadpool (having hijacked a starship): Who am I?! I am Wade Wilson. Mercenary. Son of Thomas and Hailey Wilson. I am the right hand of violence and the boot that is going to kick your sorry ass home. I am slapstick incarnate! Large Marge sent me!!!

Random thought: you know how they found paint chips on old statues that indicated they had brightly colored paint jobs? Well, if modern minitaure painting has taught us anything, it's that block colors are usually just the base coat of a more complicated paint job. Can we detect an oil wash?

For some reason my brain decided to invent what I'm calling a skyray leviathan for a dream this morning. It grabbed stuff that got too close the the surface in a shallow area.

I think one of the reasons AI retains any support, is that the only people it does what it's supposed to (the boring parts of the job) for are programmers and that's because clearly describing what code should do is both the hard and interesting part and what the LLM needs to auto complete the code.

Random discovery: The thing in my KDE setup that enlarges the mouse pointer for visibility if you move it around rapidly, just keeps going if you keep doing it.

"Bluesky will never be Twitter." Then how come I look at it every morning and it makes me sad, hmm? Explain that.

Gotta love the NASA commentator being the person most determined to not say that the toilet is broken while it's being discussed in open conversation.

Behold, my hotrods. Their companions are going to be white-topped teal. I think the final formula was Vallejo red airbrush primer, Turbodork redrum and Vallejo black gloss on top, a mix of glossy and carbon black for skirts, and AK superchrome for the accents. Also a thinned carbon black wash.

"Computer! Play Orion Love Festival Thirty-Seven!" "Confirmed. Sending command to Earth." "Um..." "Storing record of command in Starfleet databanks." "You really don't have to, I have the video stored locally..." "Your request is being reviewed by a prudish Vulcan."

I'm gonna need a crow bar aren't I?

Never forget that billionaires spend billions to convince you that voting doesn't matter. Don't help them. Voting isn't the ONLY thing we can do, but it is the most powerful check on the executive. "Don't bother voting because there'll be no free elections" is oligarch propaganda.

Having a NAS causes you to invent problems you don't have just so you can solve them by having a NAS

If it helps, people are mad at Democrats because many of their social media presences produce comms which address what's happening as though we're simply dealing with the consequences of going along with a bad restaurant recommendation. The food isn't just bad, we want to shut down the restaurant.

The original Master of Orion, because almost no other 4x game is stripped down to play that fast while retaining detail. Most lean on Civ's 'city improvements' approach to infrastructure.

Is protagonismo really a word? Because if so, that really feels like we should "borrow" it.

Welp, breakfast this morning didn't taste. So I guess I procrastinated on this years shot a little too long.

Is the power map BS or is the whole LA area down?

How are people generally feeling about Prop 50? On the one hand I feel like independent districting commissions are the kind of thing you can have when the Voting Rights Act is in place. On the other hand it literally is what it is, and it being Newsome's scheme seems like damning with faint praise

Is being able to decompose photo-real images into colors and shapes a thing that's trained? or do I just have something like a weird version of aphantasia?

I keep coming onto this site wanting the world to be only a normal, medium-term level of on fire. Not this:

How many reporters are currently working on tell-all exposés about their own organization, detailing all the acts of cowardice of their editors and publishers? I won’t ever buy your book about Sleepy Joe Biden, but I’d absolutely devour a book about the internal collapse of the NYT or CNN.

It should be slam dunk messaging for Dems that the Trump administration has made it the best time in generations to engage in child sexual exploitation, counterfeiting, heavy-duty drug trafficking, and all manner of federal crimes that have been deemphasized in favor of arresting random line cooks

Sleepy racoon slepps

pssst hey kid, want an otter box for $200?

Considering some notepad designs! Which two do you like most? Originally wanted to do all 3 but think I need to cut down /pun semi-intended 1- Regular 2- Romantic with either poppies or roses with flower flowing out of basket at the bottom 3- Spiderlilies and skull at bottom

I have tariffed the penguins that are on Heard Island and which you were probably assuming did not export goods forgive me they were taking advantage of us so cunning and so cold

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

Pencil sketch and marker drawing of the "baconator" 🐖🐊

Dropped my EVF somewhere at ALA. It's the one for the M series so I guess I'm hitting KEH.

If you’re in Los Angeles and just got an evac order 15 min ago, that was a technical error by the LAFD. (Confirmed by Fox11.) #LAfires #LosAngelesFires #LosAngeles

So this dumbass went and loaded up Planetes because I wanted to hear that OP, even if it makes me a bit misty (and ignoring why the opening to Planetes in particular makes me that way)... I forgot about that cold open of the first episode. OOF!

I am concerned my car may have *become* air-cooled. ... (Yes I'm taking it in tomorrow morning)
