This season of Ted Lasso had some ups and downs, not least of which was why it was even necessary at all, but in the end they stuck the landing with a perfectly fine finale. I'm still not sure why they made more, though.

The translation itself seems to be higher quality, it's just the generated voice is now kind of neurotic.

Quarterly all company meeting from 3pm. We have a new AI translation system in the production it seems. The english feed has some really wild emotional cues to the voice, giving random bits of statements high tension out of nowhere.

I dunno, I'm not trying to belittle people having anxiety issues or sensory issues or anything like that. But let's accept that not everyone experiences sensory input the same way we do. That should be common sense, but it doesn't seem to be. I find these discordant and jarring songs extremely […]

Random video across my youtube feed today of someone complaining about Angine de Poitrine being on Jimmy Fallon, saying it triggered their anxiety and just ranting about how it's a sign of the end times and people are just pretending to like the music for lols or to intentionally cause harm and […]

Like many people now that search has become garbage, I often use google's AI response system for searching for things. I asked for a text character counter for a thing I was doing and when I got the results, I lamented that most of them don't count whitespace/newlines. So it whipped up a little […]

Have you noticed, lately, or noticed people around you commenting, that there just seems to be no money anymore. There's no money for companies to make the tv shows you like, the video games you like, the local diner you like shut down, no one you know can find a job. Think about that in context of

What if instead of making these tempting basic-ass games just for the ads to lure suckers in to microtransaction heavy mobile games...what if they just made the basic-ass game in the ad that people actually want to play?

I always thought I'd keep up with the times and not be one of those old people who judge new trends. Unfortunately that goes out the window every time I see some young kid with neck or face tattoos.

Okay, hba1c is 5.3 and LDL cholesterol is 115 so I'm doing great still. Doctor is always very happy with my progress. I get the impression he doesn't see a lot of success stories like this, so he's overly enthused by my good numbers. He awkwardly did a first-bump at me. Maybe he recently saw […]

Meanwhile somehow there's a 20+ GB update for #LastEpoch which I still have installed but haven't played in ages. I don't even have the numerous DLC they added, why the hell is it a 20GB update? Feels excessive.

Okay turned out I was just not looking closely enough in the mirror. Filling didn't come out, it was just an awkward dark stain patch on a tooth's filling spot that from a distance looked like a hole.

@pippa @gullevek I clearly should not have conflated the two demographic groups regardless of what my timeline looks like. I really did not think the takeaway from a jokey discussion of cradle-robbing would be that I somehow hate housewives.

Glen Malley @glen-malley.mstdn.ca.ap.brid.gy · 01/10/2026
@gullevek @pippa I dunno what other language I coulda used to refer to the demographic as a whole. "Middle aged female fans of men loving men" would have had someone waiting outside my apartment door with a crowbar.

@gullevek @pippa Really confused where this "status in society" angle came from. Clearly society values that demographic more.

@pippa I meant it in the sense that they seem to be the main fandom for heated rivalry and thus most likely to approve of me taking up with a boytoy.
