Video games has decided to discontinue its once leading product, the video game

“The internet is a store but it used to be a library” hits me like a slug to the chest

the year is 2030 and i no longer consume anything that isn't personalized to me. every game, every book, every movie extends to the limits of my own imagination and no further. i haven't been surprised in five years. i cry softly, in bewilderment, if i see a word i don't know

nobody finishes a book and concludes “that was great; now I shall never read another one.” other writers are your teammates and coworkers, not your competition.

never too late 💫💙 #comic #comics

Make stuff. For the love of all that there is, please just keep making stuff! Doesn't matter if it's bad, good etc. Just *keep* making stuff.

Happy Birthday, Kamisato Ayaka! #GenshinImpact #KamisatoAyaka Please forgive me. I got a little held up while getting ready. You don't often see me with my hair down, do you? Usually, I would make sure everything was in order before seeing anyone.

Good to have a reminder every once in a while. It's easy to do, and the problem is likely to get worse. So make it a habit.

Please try to reclaim your precious precious attention, at all costs. Do puzzles. Take walks without a phone. Dear god, try to read, almost anything that isn’t a manifesto will really do. You are going to need your brain.

Back to work... hätte doch noch die dritte Woche nehmen sollen 😔

Liking things rules, actually.

Letzter Tag in London, dann schauen wir doch mal in den Waterstones und bei Hatchards rein

A little motivation

RIP my wallet

Du weisst, du bist alt, wenn du auf ner Anime-Convention gesiezt wirst😭

Ich. habe. Urlaub.

#Nidda Ein offensichtlich verletzter Schwan auf der Nidda konnte gestern sicher an Land gebracht werden. Er wurde an einen Tierarzt übergeben. 🦢^vh

Hi, it's me. Your idiot friend from the internet who had no idea that the snail that made that big shell could have killed me if it was home. You're not really supposed to pick them up to admire them. 🌠 #TheMoreYouKnow

Nobel Prize winner Ada Yonath sadly passed away today. She was a legend for her pioneering work on the structure of ribosomes.

Ich hab meinen Job echt gern, aber nix schlägt das Gefühl zu wissen, dass man ab Do 15:30 Urlaub hat

Wenn der ICE überpünktlich am Gleis bereitgestellt wird, man direkt in Ruhe sitzen kann, und der Zugführer gute Laune hat, da ist auf einmal alles gar nicht mehr so schlimm.

Stop fucking using genAI. Not even for a joke, not even for that oh so cutting political satire. Every time you use it, you are actively taking food out of our mouths. You are using the weapon of the enemy. We do not need it.

Discworld QOTD, from The Shepherd's Crown "FOR I CAN SEE THE BALANCE AND YOU HAVE LEFT THE WORLD MUCH BETTER THAN YOU FOUND IT, AND IF YOU ASK ME, said Death, NOBODY COULD DO ANY BETTER THAN THAT…"

You know jokes about "having the braincell"? Well, having read the Clocktaur wars, Swordheart, & about half of Daggerbound I'm pretty sure @tkingfisher.com gives the party braincell to the gnole ...cause the humans are high int, low wis, and dense as hell

British actors getting the email from Warner Brothers...

Gute und schlechte Neuigkeiten beim Tierarzt... aber sie wurde wieder sehr gelobt und betüddelt 😊🎀

Konnte im Studio heute in der Kraftmessung wieder Fortschritte feststellen. Man "sieht" zwar nix aber es ist dennoch ein gutes Gefühl, dass "etwas" passiert.

I just got these stickers in the mail that are the most me thing on earth

Will man mal Tickets für etwas buchen, für den Urlaub: transaction blocked, suspected fraud. Nur weilsin CHF war??? WTF Visa, wozu hat man denn ne Kreditkarte.

Me: everything is terrible. also me: proceeds to read and enjoy one of the most emotionally damaging book series ever.

Medical Advice

Dudes love a podcast that claims it's telling you about how to attract women based on like, EVOLUTION. But not a single one of them are giving the real mating advice that I have seen in the scientific literature! Not a single dude has ever rolled me up a ball of dung at a bar and it shows.

Basquiat seyde that "art ys how we decorate space, and musique ys how we decorate tyme." It doth followe that poetrye ys how we decorate thoughte and sense, and narratyve ys how we decorate memorye. And all are middel fingeres agaynste death. Make art, or else.

3 Tage Bauchweh wegen Termin bei einem neuen Tierarzt (aktuelle geht in Ruhestand, es sei ihr so gegönnt!). Ergebnis: Mausi hat ein tolles Herz für ihr Alter (16J), sieht aus wie eine Jungkatze, Äuglein werden langsam trüb und die Ohren sind wieder dick entzündet. Fazit: Gut aufgehoben gefühlt.

"Bluesky is dying" bro you're talking about a website full of 38 year olds who have fringe political beliefs and listen to black metal bands with >1000 listeners on spotify, nobody here cares about popularity
