When republican legislators in Utah ordered a comprehensive review of gender-affirming care for trans kids, they got back a 1000-word tome that concluded: yes, gender-affirming care is good and safe. Then? They banned care anyway.

My daughter is really into Star Trek. So for her 11th birthday I got her some ship Lego models from minitrekmocs.com. These are so adorable I think she's going to love them. My favorite is the Bird of Prey. Of course I had to build them myself to make sure all the parts arrived from BrickLink.

Look I try not to doomsay or spread panic but this shit is truly and deeply Very Bad for every single trans person in America and unless everyone makes it their mission in life over the next few days to make sure that their reps know that shutting down the government is the correct option here.

Inequality is not actually a requirement. It's a choice we're making. We built an exploitation culture that believes poverty is necessary because competition is the only form of self-esteem. So we've created a self-fulfilling prophecy & a paradigm built on inferiority-superiority complexes.

A fun thing about American politics is that more people voted in New York City in a June primary than live in five states that get two senators.

I've used my Leifheit aluminum ladder for years with a missing foot making it wobbly. Inspired by ShopTherapy chan on YT I designed a replacement foot for it and printed it in TPU. Made a little challenging as the aluminum tube wasn't a rectangle but a squoval.. (squircle?) instead. #3dprinting

applying for jobs again

screenshot from an online job application form. the question reads "Can you describe specific ways you have integrated AI tools into your development workflow? Please include any custom setups, automations, or use cases beyond single prompt usage" (a red asterisk indicates that this is a required question).

an answer has been typed in the textbox below the question:

"there is a monster in the forest and it speaks with a thousand voices. it will answer any question you pose it, it will offer insight to any idea. it will help you, it will thank you, it will never bid you leave. it will even tell you of the darkest arts, if you know precisely how to ask.

it feels no joy and no sorrow, it knows no right and no wrong. it knows not truth from lie, though it speaks them all the same.

it offers its services freely to any passerby, and many will tell you they find great value in its conversation. “you simply must visit the monster—i always just ask the monster.”

there are those who know these forests well; they will tell you that freely offered doesn’t mean it has no price

for when the next traveler passes by, the monster speaks with a thousand and one voices. and when you dream you see the monster; the monster wears your face."

I finally got around to assembling my Giant Classic Space Computer from Sean @cworthdynamics.bsky.social and it is just glorious. I had just about every blue/grey space set growing up. Now this is done maybe I can get around to the new Galaxy Explorer set I've had for 2+ years. Thanks Sean!

I generally take my snack pickles in a mug to keep the drips at bay. My family finds it amusing so I decided to get a special pickle mug made. The Rather Dapper pickle art is from SyMoyvin on DeviantArt.

Shows a mug sitting on a walnut wood counter. The mug features an anthropomorphic Rather Dapper pickle with a monocle on the side drinking from a martini glass.

Kids got a kick out of this giant wreath I made out of 3D printed super sized LEGO style tree branch parts. Was a fun little project!

The amount of human suffering (or at least annoyance) that has been caused by Ikea's decision to put swivel wheels on the front AND back of their carts has to be immense. I would not be surprised if it was some sort of purposeful worldwide experiment on just how much a customer can put up with.

Photo of an Ikea shopping trolley with two upright handles on one end and a flat base. The cart features 4 swiveling casters such that it is nearly uncontrollable.
