Of course it goes without saying I am hopelessly dependent on Mr Rumbles. Bonus appreciation for the alt text.

Screenshot of a YouTube Music "Replay Mix" featuring a whole lot of Battle Tapes, Saint Motel, and Everything Everything, with some appearances by Big Data and Joywave, The New Pornographers, LCD Soundsystem, and Editors.Continuation of the previous screenshot of the Replay Mix playlist. It doesn't feature the former last track at the top, so it's impossible to tell if anything embarrassing has been conveniently scrolled past.
This part of the list is more varied - although Battle Tapes and Saint Motel return, as they should, the other bands featured are Ghostwood Empire, Zero 7 (feat. Sophie Barker), Preoccupations, The The, The National, The Horrors, Queen, and TWRP.

I do not willingly use AI. I don't want to use AI. I don't ever want AI. I wont buy AI products. I will always take a job for a non AI project over an AI project no matter the financial reward. I want to do things, learn things, experience things and I want actual people to thrive.

Australian milennial here - I've heard of it before, but I didn't recognise it without the full title. I presume a reference to it would've made enough sense to me in context. So... nah yeah?

If I rinse an iced coffee bottle under the boiling hot tap at my workplace, it contracts into its original, test-tube like shape. They're heated and inflated into a mould, then rapidly chilled to set. I'd say these were formed using the same moulding technique & it's reverting with the heat.

Old pic because I haven't painted in a couple of years, but this is the coolest mini in my collection, in part because I accidentally inspired @pipermakes.bsky.social to create it 😁
A resin-printed miniature robot "Punch Bot" digitally sculpted by Pipermakes. Its name refers to its oversized fists. It is posed as if reaching for something with its right hand, while the left is balled up menacingly.
This instance of the miniature has a grey frame under armour in a vibrant magenta to orange gradient. The metallic parts and lenses have a bright cyan tint.

Alt: A scene from the later seasons of Stargate SG1. Cam Mitchell and Sam Carter are in a lab. Mitchell reaches out to poke Carter's shoulder, she returns the gesture, at which point they repeat the process more forcefully, pushing each other like bickering siblings. The shot ends with Mitchell attempting to explain whilst Carter glares at him.

I don’t think people were quite ready for the fact that although fascism happens extremely quickly, it doesn’t just ANNOUNCE itself by marching loudly through the streets in the uniforms of past fascist governments. It isn’t subtle, but a) for MOST people, life goes on, more or less normally. They..

I recently lost my beloved hound of many years, and it has put a sharp highlight on how frequently games have you fighting dogs and wolves right out of the gates. Game devs need to a) stop doing that, or b) give us a mode that swaps canines out for goblins or bone spiders or something.

Say it after me: Chat GPT is not a search engine. It does not scan the web for information, it just generates statistically likely sentences. You cannot use it a search engine, or as a substitute for searching. Now. Please never use an LLM for information searches ever again.

Hey Delaney, I initially followed you for your artwork, which is brilliant, but I have to say that you're one of the few people I follow whose jokes can bring me a smile or laugh consistently, and you make it appear effortless. I appreciate your humour and your presence.

The head from a Grimoire Red Beret Gundam model kit - a bright red dome with three blue lenses in the front - mounted on a squat skeletal body in grey. It stands on the lid of a bottle of ink on a cluttered desk. 
In one of its hands it clutches a red serrated knife, which is longer than the model is otherwise tall, and brandishes it menacingly.

Without downloading any new pics where are you mentally.

Above it all, the flat underside of a spacecraft from the Vogon Constructor Fleet hangs in the sky in much the same way that bricks don't.
