Blupee had a rough morning, after having an extremely active day yesterday. Like he and Cilantro were happily jumping and running around. Today he was poofed up and sedate. I went to take a nap, and when I woke up, he had already passed on. I didn't know you very long, little guy. I am sorry.

He does not want Star Trek. He wants to co-opt the aesthetic of Star Trek to sell his techno-feudalist futurist wet dream. Star Trek hates men like him.

"We want to make Star Trek real," said Elon Musk. "We want to make Starfleet Academy real so that it's not always science fiction, but one day the science fiction turns to science fact."

If you wanna understand his strange obsession with a franchise who's heroes would despise him for this speech, @jessiegender.bsky.social and I have a relevant video: youtu.be/V-7Spf1cLpU?...

Yeah man all my friends in Minnesota are buying high viz vests and forming human chains at class dismissals because ICE is targeting and tear gassing schools. I wonder why parents would want information about that.

what the fuck are we doing here, @cnn.com?

She thinks this draw string is preventing her from escaping. I actually moved it away, and she didn't want to move after that anyway. I think they're very much on their way to just being lap pigeons.

I HAVE PIGEONS NOW! I let them out earlier and they were playing with the budgies (budgies were still in their own cage), and all four had a great time. It was like watching humans (the pigeons) play with puppies (the budgies) through a glass window.

This is the third day in a row I've woken up well before my first alarm. All around the same time. What is going on? I know I'm not getting enough sleep.

Finally finishing up Gnosia with @pigeonpop.bsky.social and I dunno about her, but I'm having fun. This show is far more faithful to the game than I expected, but juuuuuust different enough to throw me off. It's fun. Great sound direction, too. Good golly.

I can't believe someone left these two in a box next to a dumpster. I'm glad someone else found them and brought them to the animal shelter.

rightwingers always call women “too emotional” but renee good states she’s not mad in a calm voice while the agitated emotional ICE agent unloads his gun umprompted and calls her a “fucking bitch” after she’s dead

Ask if it applies to Tibet.

NOELREPORTS@noelreports.com

China’s FM spokesperson Mao Ning called for “respecting the sovereignty of all countries” in response to events in Venezuela, but when asked if that applies to Ukraine, she avoided a direct answer. She reiterated Beijing’s clear position on what China continues to refer to as the “crisis in Ukraine”

also worth remarking that responding to "why can't AI replace you?" is a failure of framing, which @anthonymoser.com advises us that we should always Kirbyrize:

Pavel@spavel.bsky.social

For a while, the consensus was "UX makes the pictures" but that consensus is broken by shitty, heavily subsidized AI. If you're asked "why can't AI replace you?" then your environment has no way to judge *quality* of outputs beyond "designerly taste." Fix that, and the answer becomes obvious.

I posted a video of me petting a baby chocobo in FF7 Rebirth, and some weird guy was all "can we kill it? I think it would be fun to hunt them." No. Go outside. Take a deep breath. Then never comment on my YouTube channel ever again.

Trump needs to be impeached, removed from office, and charged with tons of crimes. Along with every single person who enabled this. We *must* become a nation without double standards.
