Why is it that the worse an operating system is, the more they nag you to update to it? No, Apple, I do NOT want to update to Tahoe tonight or any other night.

The Kickstarter is only open for a few more hours now

lol going through someone's feed to decide if I want to follow them... then decide that yes I do so I scroll back up and find that I'm already following them...

They really don't make covers like they used to...

I just tried to sign up to a newsletter on Substack and it had so many steps and THEN tried to make me finalise subscribing by downloading their app!!! No idea if I'm even subscribed now.

Today is the day! Pick up your copy of THE CHAMOS PROJECT from the retailer of your choice! books2read.com/u/mdBDo5. #WritingCommunity #SFF

THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!

Eating snacks because I have nothing better to do with my life

Watching 100 Days My Prince before it leaves Netflix at the end of the month. It is so good - and not just for #kdrama fans. Definitely recommend making the time for it before it disappears.

I'm unfortunately still looking for work I excel in the social, marketing, community, or customer support spheres, something where I get to work with people and make your company look good I have experience in tech, fandom, art, games, and medicine! www.linkedin.com/in/nate-ming...

Donor stem cells saved my husband's life. It's so easy to be listed on the registry - it's just a cheek swab with a cotton bud.

We can’t afford a $1M trailer slot 😔 But reposts on Bluesky cost $0 - and they really help tiny teams like ours ❤️ If cozy medieval creativity is your thing, here’s our Scriptorium trailer!

"Gambling Markets" doesn't quite have the same ring to it

So damn awful that when HK and everyone connected to the city is mourning such a horrific tragedy, we're also having to defend our culture from misinformation and denigration, and very real risk that it will lead to further loss of our heritage.

Not surprising but the reporting has been so frustrating and disappointing.

SCMP has a list of charities and organizations accepting donations to support the people affected by the Tai Po fire, including GovHK's newly established HK$300M fund. • Beware of fraudsters and use only established charities and organizations www.scmp.com/news/hong-ko...

I feel like more people should be making Ministry of Sound references

😍😍😍

Can a cat have little a public transport as a treat?

Portfolio Day is the best! 🩵

Ooooh must get this! 💕

#BonAppetitYourMajesty was soooo good - but it really needed to be 16 episodes, not 12

Just finished #BonAppetitYourMajesty 💗 If you're looking for KDrama recs... Mr Queen: more chef + Joseon time travel The King's Affection: more Joseon royal drama King the Land - another Im Yoon-ah romance See you in my 19th Life - pre-star Lee Chae-min My Demon - no connection, just super fun!

A support sandwich is now part of my regular lexicon

With sales for most creatives I know being down across the board, please feel free to post your links below (many people want to support marginalized creators and small businesses but simply do not know where or how to do that).

Yeeeeeeah!!! 😍

I wish more people would understand this

Instead they focus on how it's the people who advocate for universal healthcare and basic human rights who are really blame.

Finaaaaaaaaaaally 🙌🙌🙌🙌

I found this in a random Bluesky search for something completely different (ngl was chasing tea), it looks so good!

I really wish there were more resources like this to learn web/app development. It's often the admin-y, set up stuff or connecting bits (that gets left out) where learners get stuck. So much is so tacit or assumed obvious, when what we need to see is someone walk through the WHOLE process.

I'd realyyy love to see my art in more card games, in more TTRPGs. A simple share can help, a lot!

If you have a dog and it's summer 🥵

Just watched the first couple of episodes of Murderbot - it's soooo good!

My first official newsletter post. Please go easy on me. I’d be grateful for sharing as I get this off the ground. data-and-politics.ghost.io/data-and-pol...

If you're in Minnesota, you need Boris in your life 💕

I rediscovered my local council library a couple of years ago when I started regularly reading fiction again (I am lucky to have university library access so non-fiction is well covered). It is so good and wish I had done it sooner!

Totally relatable...

This isn't a surprise but it's horribly depressing. Fine to waste billions of dollars and accelerate climate change so for a few days people can have plagiarised Ghibli profile pics. But let's not actually fund the few uses where AI is genuinely valuable and life saving. Screw this timeline.
