I was looking for something regarding the Green Brothers' word game Smush, and Google let me know people are asking "how is @hankgreen.bsky.social doing?" So, how are you doing, Hank? Hope you're okay - people using Google are apparently concerned.

Tthe Smithson gift is in a quasi public trust administered by a board after the funds were given to the US govt by a wealthy Englishman when he died. Not that not having the authority to do something has ever stopped this man from trying but he doesn't have it.

Man relying on community archiving here is like. I am so glad for these folks. Destiny means so much to me. But their job is a losing one because Bungie routinely just dumped all of their data. It's impossible to access huge swaths of the game because the files are just gone. And that sucks.

Hey @michaelhobbes.bsky.social I am really going to need you to do more thorough research into Dissociative disorders before flippantly calling them fake and laughing about it. DID is in the DSM5. There is a NAMI page about dissociative disorders. www.nami.org/types-of-con...

nami.org

Dissociative Disorders | NAMI

Dissociative disorders are marked by involuntary escape from reality and a disconnect between thoughts, identity, consciousness and memory.

We're getting help from one of my partners parents with the new house and let me just say - there's some confusion about the gender of just about everyone who lives here, but it's in a respectful/affirming??? way?? It's weird. Thank God I have a therapist, we're gonna be unpacking this for a while.

Thanks to @michaelhobbes.bsky.social and Peter Shamshiri for this public service. This book has been widely celebrated by “very serious people“. The problem is that it is scientifically illiterate, and a clear case of motivated reasoning.

This is why I still think that the internet, not the issues, are the root cause of this culture war. People (including journalists…who are people) imagine the loudest, angriest positions as default positions because those are the ones that get eyeballs in an ultra-competitive attention economy.

Watching @tolariancommunitycollege.com talk about Commander Legends, the Baldur's Gate one, and as someone who built a Raphael deck, there are a decent number of tieflings but it was definitely easier to find demons, devils, and imps. Which is why the name of the deck is demons, devils, and imps...
