Okay it’s time for my annual Iain-Lees Galloway Love Actually Drinking Game. It has one rule: drink when there’s an inappropriate workplace interaction. The hashtag for muting purposes is #DrunkActually

they've started one of those insane rhythm game showcases on AGDQ. we're only 5 minutes into a 1h15m run and I'm already pretty sure you need at least three hands for this game

Ringu (1998). And then I went to sleep in my bedroom, which had a big CRT TV directly opposite the bed 😬

I’ve been mopping up shit like this for longer than most of you have been alive and I cannot recommend this thread enough. It’s a masterclass.

Rough vibes on this website today, likely because people feel Hopeless and Helpless Because Can't Stop It and No One Who Is Supposed To Is Trying To So Now We're Fighting Each Other™. I recommend activities such as book, or potentially instrument if you like instrument, or even do talk on phone.

Apropos of...everything a reminder that I have a list of accounts that regularly post relaxing and random stuff. It features NO NEWS. If you're trapped scrolling and need to shift your attention to something calmer it's a good way to do it. You can also pin it to your feeds

i just remembered the time my gf and i went to an art gallery in Paris and ended up in an entire exhibition of canvases painted in various different kinds of white paint, and having to do our best to pretend to be people who understand conceptual art

Happy New Year from MetService in Wellington! 🎉🌦️

New year, new weather! 🌤️ It was a turbulent end to 2025 with wild weather for many, but looking ahead to 2026 it appears we’re moving into a more settled pattern across the country as a ridge of high pressure builds over us this weekend 🌈☀️

Honestly? Congratulations, your hardware *and* software are both working incredibly well and responding nearly instantly. All QA testing is a kick in the balls. (Tellingly, many people’s reaction to this is schadenfreude about AI, though this robotics demo likely has little to do with LLMs.)
