Being GenX/Millennial is such a trip. In our lifetimes, we saw people our age getting wild criminal penalties for pirating music and now have to sit and watch as companies gobble up our work with impunity.

Still trying to understand how Napster got shut down, but Anthropic is going public and still hasn’t paid us authors yet after stealing our work.

Here we goooooo! Gridlords wurde heute endlich auf die Leute losgelassen und ich bin total gespannt, wie's mit dem Spiel weitergeht. Ich hab allein in der Demo schon einige Stunden gelassen. Asynchrone Auto-Battler sind echt gefährlich 😅

My little bestie! 💔 I still cannot comprehend that you had to dip out this early. Our home is strangely quiet without you and I don't know how to get used to that. You've left an enormous gap, but I'm so grateful for the eight years you've lit up our lives with your presence. Rest easy, my love!

Went for a double feature 🍿🎞️ tonight, and watched both 'Obsession' and 'Backrooms'. I'm still thouroughly shook. Especially 'Obsession' gave me both all of the creeps AND all of the jumpscares. The whole audience was on the edge of their seats, with bated breath, until the very end 😱

Die letzten zwei Tage zeigen, dass dieser Take nicht stimmt.

Die Beurteilung von X als Debattenplattform sowie seiner gesellschaftlichen Relevanz wird in solchen Wortmeldungen nicht auf aktuellen Tatsachen, sondern auf einem lange nicht mehr akkuraten Bauchgefühl aufgebaut. Thread

Trump called the crew of the Artemis II, and the phone call didn't go quite so well for him. It seems that no one on the crew wanted to talk to him — at all.

I wonder why 🤷🏽‍♂️

Manchmal könnte ich ja schon am allgemeinen Anti-Feminismus verzweifeln, der immer krasser zu wuchern scheint. Und dann lese ich so was und denke mir, dass es vielleicht doch noch Hoffnung gibt:

CDU: Mach Sprache klarer, eine Form gilt für alle!
Bürgermeister Keitel: Kein Problem, Maskulinum raus.
Nur weibliche Formen in Satzung: Gender-Zoff bei der Feuerwehr in Friedrichsdorf
Streit um geschlechtergerechte Sprache: In Friedrichsdorf sorgt eine Feuerwehr-Satzung, die nur noch weibliche Amtsbezeichnungen kennt, für reichlich Zündstoff zwischen Bürgermeister und CDU-Fraktion.

this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like
Why should I write better when a machine can do it for me? Because actually no one can do it for you, because your voice is unique among all the people on earth. Siri never petted a horse's neck. Alexa has never been ghosted by the captain of the football team. But you have lived, your heart is beating, you have suffered, and you have something important to say. It's a human's job, to use words, and whatever job you give to a machine, that part of your brain goes dark. Maybe it's worth it when it comes to remembering phone numbers and directions, but when that part of your brain that uses words goes dark, that's a vast area that's very close to your soul. Don't let some internet platform convince you that what you have to say and create isn't worthwhile. Words are the echo of your soul. Honing that echo matters.

Post a random pic or everything goes bad in August

I shan't risk it!
A human-sized statue of a superhero dude (I don't know him) in a light-grey skintight bodysuit, with the letter V painted across the ripped chest in a bright shade of red, the same colour paint as the thigh-high boots, long gloves, some other accents and most importantly a tiny pair of underpants. The figure stands in a classic superhero power pose with wide legs, elbows out and fists on the hips. Photographed through two bars of a big metal fence, the superhero seems to live in someone's backyard between the shed and some trees.

Mit seinem Saugnapf-Kopf hält er sich an der Darminnenwand fest.

Aber wär hätte gedacht, dass die Saugnäpfe bei näherer Betrachtung flauschig sind? :D
