Embarrassing stuff for an Australian company, but then, what isn't embarrassing about Ticketek?

Rave review from my (mother's) financial advisor: "This will be fairly straightforward, I know you always do a lot of prep." I hate that I now vaguely understand deeming, but so be it.

#xfiles a fun commission I got to draw
a painting of Mulder and Scully, with Mulder kneeling in front of two cats, and Scully standing nearby with her hands on her hips. Mulder asks the cats "are you extraterrestrials?". one of the cats has a question mark next to its head, the other has a thought bubble with a green alien cat inside it

YALL I GOT THE DETAILS AND OH BOY
MR BEAST
THE MOST DANGEROUS GAMES
The book.
Do note how there's so many copies they've had to double up by putting some behind Return of the Spider.ZHI. An adored Chinese gymnast, Lin Zhi will be forced to compete against her brother, Lin Jian (PLAYER #21), a platform diver who has no problem competing against anyone. This puts the two of them in the same discipline for the first time in their lives.

THE HOST. This mysterious disembodied character strikes fear into the heart of every player. His words alone have the power to change the player's lives and fortunes. Perhaps the most puzzling thing about him is his real agenda.

JIMMY. This is James Donaldson, AKA Mr Beast. A world-famous content creator known for his games and challenges. Jimmy has been asked by the content's organizers to help make the game as demanding as possible. He was approached by the organizers and believes in the mission behind these games. He believes the right person can help change everything for the better if given the right resources. Sharp, fair minded, and deeply loyal, he isn't afraid to stand up for the players when he suspects something is terribly wrong.3. THIS IS DANGEROUS. There will be rules. There will be medical support. There will be ways to step out if you have to. But—you can get hurt. YOU CAN DIE. That is not hype. That is the truth.78
Jimmy Donaldson is in London.
Normally he wouldn't, but right now, he hates that sentence. Because it means he's far away from the people he's grown to care about. And he's getting closer to the people he's trying to take down.

Checking on the progress of an insurance claim online and this photo stares out at me in the background of the webpage... Incredible choice; the longer your look, the more manic it becomes. (my sympathies to the actor/model/whoever who was probably smiling-with-teeth for the 5th hour straight)

"Couch potato" is the archetypal metaphor for laziness. Yet if you leave a potato on the couch it will sprout without soil, relying solely on its internal reserve of water. What is this if not grindset? Are we not all, now, relying on our internal reserves to grow, on the computer?

Also sexual wellness products that aren't for sexual arousal or gratification 🤔🤔🤔 What are we talking about here? Some kind of lube that makes missionary /just/ bearable but immediately stops working before anyone orgasms?

This is obviously terrible but the silver lining is the thought experiment of erotica that is not written primarily for sexual pleasure and doesn't refer to explicit or implicit sexual acts 🤔

ok so I finished Ed1th F1nch and I feel like I'm having a stroke I thought it was...really bad...and the plot was laughable. LAUGHABLE
Wikipedia screenshot: "What Remains of Edith Finch received critical acclaim, receiving praise for its immersive storytelling, characters, and presentation; and is considered an example of video games as an art form. Among other awards and nominations, it won the British Academy Games Award for Best Game 2017 and the Best Narrative category at both The Game Awards 2017 and the 2018 Game Developers Choice Awards.

Then there's the brother with "substance abuse problems" requiring serious treatment, which seems to just be... weed?

I'd been giving Edith a great deal of leeway on the assumption that she was 16 or something, based on the immaturity of her monologue and decisions, and then she just mentioned that she's heavily pregnant. Still possible she's 16 I guess but seems a bit unlikely, so now I'm just ???

I heard so much about how good the writing in this game is that I'm waiting for a GOTCHA that makes this pile of rubbish make sense, but I'm starting to feel like it's not coming. Gameplay is fine I guess, and everything's pretty, but the plot is unintentionally hilarious through and through.

I think it's fair to say that What Remains of Ed1th F1nch is just not Working For Me (I know I'm late to the party!!!), but also just laughed out loud at this bold decision to memorialise a 1 year old baby who drowned in the bath with a bottle of bubble bath. Incredible stuff.
Screenshot from game: a baby's crib turned into a memorial, with memoranda, candles, and photos scattered around. Positioned prominently is a bottle of bubble bath.

I'm all for rehabilitating the romance genre in the sense of no longer looking down on readers, but I wish it didn't come with this hilarious side-order of pretending all romance is extremely well written. Like all genres, some of it is, some of it isn't. ...a lot of it isn't.

Reminds me of a post I saw some years ago from a tourist in a Welsh pub. A drunk patron there kept going on about "Ed" being the source of all of his problems. Tourist asked the bartender if there was any danger for Ed, given how upset he was. Reply was, "He's talking about Edward 1 of England."

2FA is a terrible security protocol. Magic links are similarly ghastly. Passwords are good actually, but only if you have a password manager. Incidentally: everyone should have a password manager! Plenty of them are high quality, trustworthy, and free.

"The color is repellent, almost revolting; a smouldering unclean yellow, strangely faded by the slow-turning sunlight." I made a "Yellow Wallpaper" piece back in 2017, but I re-read the story over the weekend and wanted to try again. Much happier with this version 🖤
illustration inspired by Charlotte Perkins-Gilman's 1891 short story "The Yellow Wallpaper" depicting a woman touching sickly yellow torn wallpaper on a wall while shadowy hands reach toward her. There is another tall shadow of a figure on the wall and both figures look toward the viewer.

I love how job listings have now started to include "full time, permanent role" under "perks". Soon they're going to be like: ✨ Perks of joining the team ✨ • Full time, permanent role • Guaranteed salary, paid regularly • Coworker greetings when you enter the office • Tasks assigned by a boss!

We reflect a lot on what draws people to AI as a source of historical information. It's clear that for many people, the AI 'voice' comes across as authoritative and convincing in what it conveys, even when the actual content is pretty banal, surface-level or just plain wrong.

A strategy I am recommending to people who don’t want to mask all the time is always in healthcare facilities and public transportation, AND if you see someone in a mask, put yours on. The first helps protect spaces high risk people may have no choice but to go, the second shows them support.
