The annual murder-gonk cull is upon us. I hate these things with a passion. Every year at my old job, we'd be instructed to destroy them on sight because they're a massive fire & cancer risk. I've ripped the heads off so many, I feel like some kind of elven serial killer. www.gov.uk/product-safe...

my Autistic™ opinion remains evergreen: rules should be backed by reasoning. if no one can explain rationally why a rule is in place, it's fucking stupid and should be tossed.

you know, back after brexit a good chunk of my family were tossing around the idea of emigrating back to germany using the pathways they had for ppl whose recent ancestors had to Leave In A Hurry. the past couple years have made me glad none of us got around to it.

if a white supremacist says anything you should assume every single word is a lie unless completely independently verified by an entirely unrelated source. if they say it is thursday you should ask an expert on days of the week. this should be the bare minimum standard in this media landscape

hey guys something really funny is happening. System 3 released a trailer for a James Pond retro collection, and top to bottom every single thing in it except one Amiga sprite is AI generated. The comments are eviscerating. They had to put up an article that proves it's not AI. The article is AI.
