definitely an AI ad. they all have pinned posts quoting a now-deleted post that vaguely suggest using some tool or entering some contest

It’s been seven months and I’m still obsessed with this post.

The most resist lib‘d post of all time:

Quote post from Sir Osis of Liver @rojo804.bsky.social
I don't know what the hell a blue yeti is, but we have an orange one that we regretfully made President. I'm pretty sure most of us are sick and tired of him. Feel free to take him home.

Quoting ROBBYDUDE @robby.zone • 7mo
after 10 years i think i may retire the ol' blue yeti and look into something new
does ANYONE have any good microphone suggestions? USB is preferred but i can be convinced to finally switch to XLR if someone ride-or-dies for it. i was thinkin 'bout one of those elgato mics for a long while

last minute qualifier scores for the BITE 8 pump pro division. top 32 cumulative scores made the cut, landed at #43. not bad for the largest pump tournament in the US! especially considering i haven't played super consistently in years and only gave myself a few hours to qualify.

made a tortilla española today! deep frying the potatoes and onions in a skillet is terrifying, but absolutely worth. it's delicious, and now i have this incredible leftover sweet oniony oil.

photo of a tortilla española with a slice removed. the cake slicer is visible, as is a dirty spoonrest and stovetop, because i was VERY HUNGRY and just wanted to eat the damn thing. i'll work on my food photography next time okay?????

Konami's Dance Dance Revolution first took the arcade scene by storm in 1998. Its frantic movements and toe-tapping electronic music were key to its widespread popularity, evoking an energy unmatched since the 1989 release of unrelated Belgian techno anthem, Pump Up The Jam.
