I'll own up to being a stickler for consistent style, but even I'm not this picky.

If you need further proof that Twitter is a cesspool these days ... Because Discord has no BlueSky presence, I *shudder* posted to its support account on Twitter. And that brought out the bot replies like nothing I'd ever seen before.

I'm going to be going on a flight in nine days and I think it'd be cool if my pilot was a furry. Maybe don't wear the suit while operating the plane, though, it might get in the way. Flight attendants, on the other hand...

Got some distressing, but weirdly fortuitously timed, news today. Don't worry, it's nothing super serious, I don't have a fatal disease or anything. And it might lead to me doing something cool, in a "one door closes, another door opens" kind of way, but I'll need some time to plan it all out.

I just walked outside barefoot on pavement for 10 feet and it nearly killed me. I don't know how Queen Jennah does it. (I've actually had a radical theory in my head for years that would explain it, but ArenaNet refuses to put it into the story, smh)

The reason they call the company "Saber Interactive" is because the CEO's response is like cutting his own head off with a sword.

ChatGPT making commercials with old people in them is like email scams targeting seniors. They know young people have grown wary of their bullshit, so let's go after a lonely, vulnerable group of people!

"figure it out, like a real engineer" Accompanied by "we needed da pwagiawism bobot to make da pictures" really tells you a lot about this particular asshole.
A steam page where a game claims there are "docs and hunts no tutorials, figure it out" and in the next line confesses to using the plagiarism machines to steal all its art. Svgs, ads, music and voice. Just every single humanities subject.

Today's mini-rant: I hate products that only show me what it thinks I want to see, rather than what I actually agreed to see. Was looking for an email on my phone yesterday and couldn't find it. Thought, "Huh, maybe it's not there." Today, I looked via my PC and there it was.

Would like to reconnect with some people I haven't spoken to in years, but the first thing that always gets asked is something about your current job situation, like that's how I'm supposed to define myself, and I've been in a weird place on that front for 15 years, so I don't wanna talk about it.

"Working class" in 2026 means a blue haired barista with they/them pronouns, a Asian immigrant nail technician, and an undocumented hotel cleaner. And we are going to keep having the same fights until we let the midcentury illustrator mirage of the white guy in plaid with the lunch pail go.
