If you don’t read old stuff you’ll never discover that people in the olden days had the same thoughts and feelings and dreams and anxieties you do, sometimes articulated differently, sometimes exactly the same way. You are never truly alone in anything and old writings are a neon sign telling you so
Meanwhile, on threads, which actually is like what people on twitter think bluesky is like, a "teacher, author, poet" speaks...

this is an absolutely infuriating angle to take in this situation. why is it on the union to find creative solutions to ownership problems, exactly? why is it on the union to save owners from themselves when it comes to sacrificing games?

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide.

This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

This is why right wing comedy consists of that one joke and "OH DOES THAT TRIGGER YOU?!?",
The decline of right wing cultural production is just due to the fact that they don’t like culture, they like the signifiers of culture, ie “classic sculpture means white people are better.” They don’t like art at all except for this purpose. They don’t even like the nerd stuff they whine about

I made a tool that turns PCB designs into 3D-printable molds. you sandwich copper tape between the parts, sand the ridges, and you have a real working PCB. no etching, no chemicals. I am losing my mind

'It was just meant to be': How Japan's most fearless women (and MySpace) helped Smackgirl shape MMA's future
In 2001, women's MMA was more of an idea than a full-fledged sport — especially out east. But that changed with one promotion that dared to go against the grain.

That last sentence? That's the strategy. They've been pretty open about it.
“They’re trapped in this little confinement cell, a dark cell with no sunlight, with multiple people,” said Shaan Chatterjee, an attorney at New England Immigration Law. “They’re basically torturing people into signing off on their own deportation.”

There’s going to be Covid style shortages of cars, TVs and even washing machines and fridges, then job losses because assembly lines can’t source solid state memory, just so the stupidest person you know can state with 100% confidence a chatbot confirmed dinosaurs coexisted with humans.
I understand framing the AI bubble RAM supply crisis in terms of stuff like video game consoles because nerds can conceptualize that but the framing does really undersell the sheer magnitude of how it's going to fuck up everything that even touches a computer.

There was a slave owner named Thomas Thistlewood wrote lengthy diaries filled with all of the horrific crimes against humanity he committed against people he enslaved. Including over 3000 rapes and forcing the enslaved to shit in the mouths of other slaves.
slavery is one of the rare things historically where the more you learn about it the more you realize your initial assessment was correct and it was in fact one of the most evil things ever to occur

I've been saying for years it's hard to beat Tumenov. Takes technique and dexterity in both hands. And you need to make sure to stay out of the line of fire when trying to get a finish
Bibert Tumenov's aggressive boxing opens him up to reactive takedowns, but he mitigates that by keeping his hands extended and proactively changing levels.

When opponents try to duck in off his entries, he can frame off and keep hitting
