He/Him/Any, honestly as long as it isn't "it" I'm ok.
I'm a nerd trying their best to make the world better than they found it.
It's bloody hard 'cos so many people suck.

My answer to the idiom "Never meet your heroes" - get better heroes.
I have 2, an everyday hero and a celebrity hero.
I've met both, I love both, and I don't think either is capable of disappointing me, because I love them for their faults as much as their virtues.

@trekculture.bsky.social just listened to episode 1 of ST:Khan, it might make me finally watch TOS, if only to see how Khan started.
Interesting to see his character go backwards, since I watched Wrath when I was 13.
Never seen a single TOS episode.

Just need to gush about the FF9xAnother Eden collaboration.
I am so f***ing stoked for 4/12 when it finally drops.
FF9 is my favourite game in the series and being able to use the main 4 characters in the world of Eden is so exciting.

Just so it's clear. It's not allowing AI because it's trying to create a clean dataset for training AI. It's not because any of the involved parties actually care about human created art.
Demons can lie to you. You have to rebuke them categorically, rather than fold when they say the right words.

The app plans to feature more than 10,000 previously archived Vines and does not allow AI-generated content.

In a normal world, this should be an immense scandal in Europe.
Le Monde has a long article describing the hellish life of Nicolas Guillou, a French judge at the ICC in The Hague, due to U.S. sanctions punishing him for authorizing arrest warrants against Netanyahu and Gallant for war crimes in Gaza.
Guillou's daily existence has been transformed into a Kafkaesque nightmare. He cannot: open or maintain accounts with Google, Amazon, Apple, or any US company; make hotel reservations (Expedia canceled his booking in France hours after he made it); conduct online commerce, since he can't know if the packaging is American; use any major credit card (Visa, Mastercard, Amex are all American); access normal banking services, even with non-American banks, as banks worldwide close sanctioned accounts; conduct virtually any financial transaction.
He describes it as being "economically banned across most of the planet," including in his own country, France, and where he works, the Netherlands.
That's the real shocking aspect of this: the Americans are:
- punishing a European citizen
- for doing his job in Europe
- applying laws Europe officially supports
- at an institution based in Europe
- that Europe helped create and fund
and Europe is not only doing essentially nothing to protect him, they're actively enforcing America's sanctions against their own citizen - European banks closing his accounts, European companies refusing him service, European institutions standing by while Washington destroys a European judge's life on European soil.
Again, in a normal world, European leaders and citizens should be absolutely outraged about this. But we've so normalized the hollowing out of European sovereignty that the sight of a European citizen being economically executed on European soil for upholding European law is treated, at best, as an unfortunate technical complication in transatlantic

@seanferrick.bsky.social regarding the idea of short attention spans, I had a terrifying realisation, it IS accurate but only to the execs that make decisions, they are so obsessed with short term gains they've developed a short focus window to the exclusion of all else.

@nickjcal.bsky.social why no love for Kimberly Brooks?, who single handedly made the Ghosts of the Deep and season of the Deep one of my favourite Destiny 2 experiences, her Xivu Arath starts as the avenging sister and as you descend she just mourns for her lost brother and it is lovely to hear.
