What's *my* excuse? What's his excuse?!

Seventeen years later… The time has come for Machinarium 2 🦾🔧 Wishlist NOW on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/1619280/...

pretty much every time someone talks about AI agents going to work on the internet the first thing I think about is the family of racoons that moved into the attic of an old house for 20+ years, and how the attic was almost entirely occupied by layers of their ancient shit

I literally don’t know a single woman who hasn’t been raped, stalked, groped, harassed, or sexually violated in some way at some point in their life. If you choose to doubt and dox survivors, just know every woman in your life is disgusted by you.

Fuuuuuuuuuuck cancer

Whoever thought bills were something people should be cheering for?

"Okay, I guess I won't play in those venues," is a sentence you could absolutely use.

Rough Draft vs Final Draft

If you have a Gmail account, you need to read this. Google's AI now scans your emails and attachments, bank statements, tax files, medical letters, all of it. It turned on by default, and there's a class-action lawsuit over how. Here are 5 moves to shut it off, the switch is hidden in two places:

The father, the son, and the holy spirit, the professor, and Mary-Anne.

You might say deadlifts two days in a row is a mistake. An hour after finishing up, yeah, you might be right.

The fallout from the collapse of this glacier - a torrent of mud surging down the valley - killed hundreds of people. Gone, in a flash. Those people were wiped out by anthropogenic climate change. Our governments are simply not responding quickly enough to this disaster which is already upon us.

Part of the problem of always feeling like I'm up against a super tight deadline is I don't get a chance to learn the underlying technology, so it feels like I'm patching something rather than fixing it properly.

"I'm not looking to sell you something," he says, then proceeds to try to sell me something. Sir, if the first words out of your mouth are a lie, we're pretty much done. And if I have to ask you four times what I can do for you, I can assure you I've shut down by the time you get to the point.

Not the household, but I'll never forget his part as Rooster in Annie.

Holy crap. @clpolk.com hit it out of the park with Even Though I Knew the End. Not a missed beat, not a sour note. Highly recommended for anyone who likes ... well ... anything. #booksky

Every time I see a Volkswagen Taos, I think about Tweety Bird saying, “I am an agent of chaos!”

Happy book birthday to @robertjbennett.bsky.social with A Trade of Blood. I finished A Drop of Corruption last night and was surprised to see this coming out today.

I've been out of jump-rope circles since probably the 1980s. Do people still say, "Go Pitch! Go Patch! Go Pepper!" then speed up? Was that ever a thing?

Tattoo it, if you must. But move with this understanding.

I feel like reactions to this would range from "No way, that's stupid," to "Yeah, no kidding, stupid," but here goes: Salting chicken breasts and letting them sit for 24 hours before cooking is a GAME CHANGER. I don't know the chemistry of it, but it is the truth. #foodSky

elbows up (against essential parts of the public service)

Babe wake up new Canadian anti AI data center petition just dropped

Man. This government stinks. They don't seem to represent me at all. If I didn't know better, I'd say they were more concerned with corporate growth than public service. Who voted for these turkeys?

Banger alert.

Kind of shocked at the things people feel free to shove into the LLM of their choice, regardless of the source.

Climate.us is officially live! After NOAA ended Climate.gov’s day-to-day operations in 2025, former team members built Climate.us to carry that work forward. Their explanations and graphics have always stood out to me as clear, accessible, and transparent. I’m really looking forward to this reboot.

Time line cleanse. Father’s Day. #DogFather

My problem with writing a first draft is that, as soon as I'm not actively writing it, if I read anything that has any kind of polish, my story starts to feel a little foolish. I know the point of a first draft, but it can be hard for me to push through, knowing all the things it isn't. #amwriting

Big tree is cleared. Chainsaw can, reverently, eff off back to the shed.

In my youth I disdained resistance bands. I wasn't much of a weightlifter either, but I had a hard time equating rubber bands with getting strong. Those bands put me in my place today, I tell you what. My glutes are weak in a way I wasn't expecting, and resistance bands kicked my ass.

If you're a writer, write "I waited" without saying it. AND THE HOLD MUSIC PLAYED ON

In the process of clearing two trees that fell in our yarrd. One fell across the driveway so that one took priority. The other fell sometime over the winter. Big sucker. I'm learning a lot about chainsaw maintenance and proper chainsaw technique and how much I hate using the chainsaw.

You can't win a debate with someone who doesn't care what's true
