Tank is planted. Rotala in the left, jungle valisneria on the right, moneywort in the center and water lettuce and Brazilian Pennywort as floaters. The hardscape is a piece of spiderwood and lace stone set up to resemble a valley with a cave. #Aquariums #Freshwater

that's me

when you call me out you AT me

why is this Fallout 76 patch so huge

It’s just so appalling and enraging how casual and commonplace this has become. I’m out of words.

PSA on how to turn off that feature since I haven't seen anyone post it: User Settings > Data & Privacy > Channel Messages then turn it off

every single reporting of this new feature is extremely obnoxious because its fearmongering about a highly requested feature that stems from discussions surrounding troubleshooting and whatnot becoming relegated to closed off discord servers instead of public forums and discussion boards.

If you're on @subeta.net, you should come Trick-or-Treat at my house.

How did I do this? It's almost embarrassingly simple: LLMs are trained on a human-written text corpus, and that corpus contains metacognitive strategies for transforming 'activations' like drugs, ritual, etc. In this case, I started by having Claude emulate ketamine-assisted therapy. This worked.

Just finished applying for the Gender Reveal Trans POC Grant in hopes of getting funding to continue my work on my homeless resource maps, thank you @guineaduke.bsky.social for letting me know about it!

Whoville is going through some dark times politically

Houston... I have a problem. 😹 No, not really... it's only a problem when I can't walk between the tanks. (kidding) Going to get this set up, let it cycle for a week or so. I'll kickstart it with plants and some water from my other tanks. I want to get it ready to move all of my guppies over. 😸💛

If you're a GA local go check my friend's work out!! He does great stuff

I'm looking at this and all I can think is: Athens Cartographer Ben would like to battle.

just got finished dropping these off, actually

perfect, no notes

Did you know we’re below the minimum recommended amount of oil, and just barely above the *statutory minimum* in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve? Lowest level since 1982, and gas is still through the roof. What happens when the war in Iran kicks back off?

"You can't block someone just for being annoying!" Those are actually the most important people to block

not sorry

Major beef time: Sulu does not say this flavor text. Anywhere, anytime. Ever. This is a George Takai meme that has nothing to do with Sulu. WHY IS THAT FLAVOR TEXT ON THIS CARD?

It was an honor to be on Fabulous Folklore! Listen to us chat about folk horror and our zine.

why are we attempting to control each other at all when we are all already oppressed?

When trans creators are subtle, people dismiss the trans subtext as “headcanon.” When trans creators are loud and proud, people call it “obnoxious” and “cringe.” They just don’t want us to be represented in media at all. Because they don’t want us to exist at all.

"You don't turn the Titanic around overnight" has been really bugging me because a) yes you can and b) you definitely should, that was the main problem

Walter was more than Chekov. He was a writer, a teacher, a thoughtful man, and a loyal friend. To the fans who loved him for so many years, thank you. He loved you too. Rest well, my dear friend. Keep navigating a steady course. – George

Yissss

Okay, you can have some ACTUAL fish tank stuff......SIKE! (kinda) #Freshwater #Aquarium #Snails #MacroPhotography

When I say "hey, engaging with my work really helps" I mean @trvyisforever.bsky.social used his platform to tag half a dozen people in town for my homeless resource maps and now I have two new places in town to drop off maps.

"It's in a tank...it counts" So, not fish, but it DOES involve a tank...our mantis upstairs. Went out to do some scavenging at night. #StillTechnicallyFreshwater #ItsATank #MantisAreJustTerrestrialFish #DontAtMe www.instagram.com/p/De-j9HrEW6...

congratulations!

What if I just LIKE doing the things that AI is offering to do for me?

If you're on Instagram, please consider sharing my homeless food and shelter resource maps so that more people see them!

UGA students held a protest against Flock mass surveillance at the Arch on Friday. They're calling for UGA and ACC Gov to end their contracts with Flock. Participating organizations in the DeFlock UGA coalition are the Georgia Youth Justice Coalition, UGA YDSA and the Athens Area DSA.

I've posted the one "tattooed" guitar I have, but I love this part: The three area codes of the places I've spent the most time. San Antonio, Atlanta, Athens.

We have a new cannon! A massive thank you to 1st time sender @frenemyofthepeople.bsky.social for sending in this beauty from outside City Hall in Athens, Georgia, USA! 🇺🇸 📍 This is called the “Double Barrelled Cannon”! #CannonNumber1187 #afc #Arsenal #Gooners #COYG

this is a perfectly reasonable list, imo these four are all monumentally awful on trans issues and this is a more than fair place to draw the line, especially given how the elections currently look - three of them are in the house, where dems will romp regardless, and iowa can do better than turek

Someone reached out to me about wanting to host a soup kitchen in Athens and I just put that person in touch with the Homeless Coalition!
