This aired just the once in 1998 on the live SNL show for which McKay wrote it. It was effectively banned as it never aired again. I wonder why. MEDIA-OPOLY

October 18th, I'll be quitting my current day job. On October 28th, I'll be leaving the United States. I have so much to look forward to, a trail to set a'blazin as I move forward. I am so thankful my life has sometime who loves me so deeply, so fully~ The future is warm and bright.

I could've never imagined working with such a spectacular & skilled crew, making something so gruesome & beautiful, which is what I love from the horror genre. So proud of our team & cast. And to those waiting, hope you enjoy, or at the very least, hope it makes you flinch. #knightsofguinevere

Man... I'm glad I've gotten my visa approved when I have because I don't think I'd survive the miniscule paychecks coming my way now that summer is over. Living in a tourist town bites... And I don't think I'd have the capacity to increase my hours.

So... I don't think the Zelda remake is TERRIBLE, but I do think there are aspects that are overdone--and not in the sense that they are going for a Rococo/Romanticism vibe, either. They really were faithful to a lot of the original designs, but why are their lips so juicy and cheruby????

1000% this. It’s exhausting, it’s difficult, it’s uncomfortable. All worthwhile work is. But closing the conversation, choosing to punish, be spiteful, and hold onto anger instead of being compassionate and forgiving when people fuck up? That’s not getting anyone anywhere.

Howdy folks! I just wanted to share a free resource I made about building a washout booth filtration system for screen printing! Responsible water processing should not cost upwards of $1000!! Including the image here but full write up is here!

A diagram of a screen printing washout booth filtration set up with labels pointing to the different elements. The title Washout Booth Filter is listed at the top, along with a white starburst with the text “DIY!!!” inside. There are three containers that the water will travel through as they pass through the system. The elements indicated by labels are as follows: pond filter, 86-100 mesh screen, 130-60 mesh screen, 200-230 mesh screen, sump pump, 75 micron filter, 20 micron filter. Additional labels indicate that the first container is to be raised up above the others as a solids catcher and that the water at the end of the system can be sent to drain or additional treatment container.

A lot of people don’t realize the dust bowl wasn’t a natural phenomenon. It happened when agrobusiness interests dramatically transformed the plains without regard for drought, and created vicious dust storms that choked whole families to death. That’s what I think of when I read about data centers.

Violet Spectrum @violetspectrum.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

People are out here acting like AI is the most efficient computing thing around. I'm sorry, but those data centers need how many resources, need how much water and cooling to contract how how much heat is produced, need how much space? One human thought is far more efficient than one AI prompt.

As I'm learning to program and in turn, how to code, I am cross references as I go when I don't understand things. This is something I wish I did when i first started. It's something I did as an artist! Didn't grap how to draw a head? Look up for references, tutorials, and methods written by others!

I keep running into the dilemma that I really need to learn Javascript, C#, and maybe Python, too, if I wanna be more self sufficient with streaming. I started with Javascript but instead, I started learning basic programming, instead. Best decision ever. Oh! And I am journaling it, too.
