They arrested the CEO of Telegram?!?!

What’s next, arresting the CEO of Cloudflare?!?!?!?!?!?!

Where does it end? How can entrepreneurs feel safe courting and profiting off humungous amounts of criminal activity in such an environment?!?!?

There should be a law against this.

Your average user is going to think something is terribly wrong with their computer just because they didn't sign over their rights to Microsoft.

Just occurred to me to wonder what you get if you GIS for "Xenia with blahaj" and got the delightful surprise of pictures of physical Xenia plushies posed with BlΓ₯haji

It will not surprise you to learn that these photos were found on (1) Mastodon, on wetdry.world and (2) Cohost

Autism and ADHD are NOT trendy. They're more common than we thought, and particularly manifest differently in women, so all the people that were missed as kids are connecting the dots on why certain things were so much harder for them in their lives than most people. And that lets them come up with actually effective strategies.

It's a very, very good thing that lots of adults are figuring this out. Life is much easier with proper language and connecting to other similar folks!

trying my level best to just leave things mostly grey boxes and not get into the weeds before I've even explored the shapes

Apropos of nothing, being nonbinary is fucking awesome as fuck.

That's the toot. Carry on.

There hasn't been a lot of new progress since the doors post but it's #screenshotsaturday and there have been so many new faces around here so I made a little gameplay gif!

Sometimes enemies see you from the darkness and are already positioning to ambush you as you push forward

On NPR's Morning Edition, I sounded off about car bloat:

Oversized trucks and SUVs "create danger for everybody else on the street because of their mass and because of their height, whether you're walking or biking or inside a smaller car."

That’s one of the reasons why I take it personally when people use β€œAI” models and cryptocoins. You are being complicit in creating the demand that is threatening to directly destroy the environment I live in. None of this shit would be happening if there wasn't demand so I absolutely do blame you, personally, if you are a regular user of either of these things

There’s a cost to these tools and you’re pushing it onto others like an asshole

So, fuck you and the AI-generated horse you rode in on

β€œBut kids don’t get sick from COVID and if they do it’s mild, we don’t need masking or virtual classes!!!1! The economy!!1!!”

There’s no treatment. Society just chose to placate assholes at the expense of the health of children.
