A week from tomorrow is the beginning of the END of the Orange Atrocity! 🍊 💩 #voteVoteVOTE

"Political participation is like doing dishes. You may not like it, but if you don't do it, maggots show up."

Elon Musk has spent more money on American elections in the last two years than George Soros has in his entire life.

During the brazilian elections we learned one obvious but important tactic to defeat the far right on the Internet and I think everyone should know it: IGNORE THEM! DON'T ENGAGE WITH THEIR CONTENT! DON'T MAKE CONTENT REACTING TO THEM! DON'T HATE QRT! LET THEM ALONE IN THEIR BUBBLE!

Shit... that's freaking devastating...

If coming up with three bullet points about what makes your child special is "an impossible task" that requires AI, that says a lot more about you as a parent than the value of AI. And nothing it says about it is good.

Congrats to Lula on overcoming Mark Zuckerberg and Donald Trump to defeat Hospital Pervert Jr., even as his opposition literally blocked off roads and turned off bus service during election day. Fascists are scary but they are always, 100% of the time, ultimately gigantic fucking losers.

Anti-trans Democrats are spreading poison when we can least afford it, during elections in this ongoing fascist takeover. As a strategy, it’s a recipe for failure. As a moral stand, it’s reprehensible. PS I’m the father of young trans woman and I’ll never forgive anyone who makes her life harder.

Sweeney tries to make out he's saying this in defence of the beleaguered indie devs who want to use AI, but remember that his company laid off 1000 people earlier this year before pivoting to AI. He's taking this stance for one reason: he loves money

As someone who really likes Mischief Comedy and The Goes Wrong Show, I'm really glad to see Henry Lewis and Jonathan Sayer on #VisionQuest.

It’s incredibly hard to not be completely demoralized about the job search. I can work but for medical reasons it HAS to be a fully remote job—and there aren’t a lot of those. I’ve applied for at least a dozen positions (including temp, PT, contract) to no success. Any help is greatly appreciated.

This may not relate to the OP but what may help lessen the emotional response is if people stopped belittling those who struggled to learn those subjects. There’s a lot of walking wounded out there. No one calls kids who can’t draw well “dumb”. But if you can’t math? Apparently we’re “dumb”.

I know we do this like twice a day but this alone is among the most impeachable shit imaginable

This is one of the things my therapist taught me that helped improve my mental health: Focus on a few things that you can actually change and do those. Start with your local community. You can’t help anyone if you’re burned out. Personally, I focus on going above and beyond for my patients.

The Dallas Cheerleaders have a union. So should you.

“Oh hey, this channel does bardcore song covers, and it’s been around since before AI, I’ll check it out…” Nearly all the videos came out within the past month and use clearly AI-generated images. “Nope, fuck that.”

In honor of BioWare, let's take a moment to appreciate one of Mass Effect's great contributions to video game music: www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxVe...

Professional Republicans are creeps who want to inspect your kids’ genitals. Never, ever vote for a Republican.

Well, this fucking sucks.

“I told you once that I was searching for the nature of evil. I think I’ve come close to defining it: a lack of empathy.... Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy.” — Dr. Gustave Gilbert, U.S. Military Chief Psychologist in the Nuremberg Trials, Nuremberg Diary

Clockwork Alchemy is a unique convention experience, which is just the way steampunk fans in the Bay Area like it. Check out my con report on G33k HQ: g33khq.org/clockwork-al...

Now is the time to care about everyone, not “once we win” The time to care about everyone is always always always now

The grott bomm launcher wartrakk is done! And in time for Orktober, too. This one took a bit of kitbashing with flea market bits, some 3D printing, and working between bouts of wrist pain, but I'm pleased with the results.

One of Warhammer 40,000's greatest artists, Karl Kopinski, needs help: "Trench Crusade reveals medical crowdfunder for Warhammer art legend Karl Kopinski 24 miniature creators are teaming up to raise funds for Kopinski, whose work defined Warhammer 40k and fantasy in the early 2000s..."

Hey California! Be careful this election because the big money creeps are trying to trick you (again).

So Danny Trejo was manipulated and tricked into being in Ben Shapiro's newest film. Holy shit.

At the ren faire today, there was a guy with a sign that said "perception check" and two dice, one with all 1's, one with all 20's. My wife rolled a 1, so I got the all 20's d20. As soon as it landed, I declared "Natural 20, let's fucking go" and started singing: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HqL...
