Bus home for my dad's 80th birthday leaves in about two hours. ...not looking forward to the weekend of family bullshit, being misgendered, and likely having continuous allergic reactions.

On one hand, I appreciate the praise from the dentist for doing well at keeping the luxury face bones functional. On the other, I would have really appreciated less misgendering. And to top off the situation, I saw what'd we would have had to pay for a general checkup if I didn't have insurance.

One of the most frustrating things about reading current Japanese popular media is that you're always on edge because you never know when the author will suddenly and inexplicably introduce Slavery. It's rarely for a functional story reason, mostly shown as a good thing, and shows up out of nowhere.

Okay, if anyone in your life, your feed, or whatever says Ubiquiti is "Enterprise grade" networking gear. Nuke them from your existence. Yes, I use Ubiquiti for my home network, but they are nowhere close to what's needed to run anything more than a small business.

Wendy Carlos should be on the 20 dollar bill. There should be a 50-foot-tall, solid-gold statue of her in Pawtucket. You should be able to buy all her albums in any format you want and a line of custom branded synths. She should be a household name along with Bob Moog.

Joe Canadian: “I AM. CANADIAN!”
Eric: “What better way to celebrate Canada than to take an awesomeness challenge!”
Joe: “WOOO!”

Panel 2
Huge chart titled “Totally Rad Canadians of Canada Challenges of Awesomeness”
Eric: “We’ve got ‘lit’ challenges about children & education!”
Joe, pouring maple syrup on himself: “CA-NA-DA! CA-NA-DA!”

Panel 3
Eric: “We have challenges about business! Sports! Museums!”
Joe, stuffing face with Timbits: “CA-MA-BA! CA-MA-BA!”

Panel 4
Eric: “We put all 94 challenges into one handy doc—Oopsie”
Totally Rad sign falls off, exposing chart is actually “Truth & Reconciliation Comission of Canada Calls to Action” chart.

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

More TTRPG designers and players need to play and import concepts from a wider source of games. A lot of things people try to do have been done in boardgames, wargames, minis games, and older RPGs. Don't need to do things the exact way as them, but it will help you grasp other ways of doing stuff.

ttrpgs are a generally myopic field of design and have a small fraction of the creative variety present in other kinds of games, and this is somewhat (although not entirely) due to social pressure and aesthetic standards historically exerted by conservative players, designers, and publishers

If literally 1/10th of the population who watched Japanese media over the past...ever, understood the warnings, it would make the claims by AI companies utterly impossible. I choose to believe Japanese people understood more than that...or at least had two seconds to think. Don't believe the hype.

I keep meeting smart informed Albertans who tell me they do not intend to vote, because they don’t want to legitimize the process, or because they know the premier is not bound by the results. But what if making us give up on voting is the whole point? My argument to vote - no matter the absurdity.

I... Honestly can't define a single moment that made me into a life long gamer. Rogue, Moria, Sopwith, Tetris, Sierra games, etc were in my blood so long it's most of my life. But... Elder Scrolls and Fallout shaped that gaming into something more specific. A need to explore and test and observe.
