Hey. Psst. Y’all are rad. Hydrate your skeletons. Take your meds. Check your posture. Have a snack.

Whatever you need to do today/tonight, I believe in you. No matter how big or small it may be. I hope the week brings joy, relief, laughter, success, coziness. You got this.

💕

ALT Text benefits everyone

Alt text helps with accessibility, identifying/explaining elements you might not get to in your posts and makes your posts/work more discoverable - Make sure to toggle it on to “require alt text” in your settings

I’m sorry I just found out that in 1379, as in, 650 years ago, a baby girl was born in Yorkshire and named Diot Coke

history is a fucking joke lmao

16) PEAK

🎮 Finished? Sadly no 🥺

I loved Peak. But my brain didn’t. Unfortunately, even with the accessibility settings tweaked (wonderful settings!), the game caused me so much motion sickness that I had to stop. Which is a real shame, because I loved the little that I could play of it!

15) Elite Dangerous

🎮 Finished? N/A

I jumped into Elite because I was craving space adventure. And while I liked what I played, my brain needed more of a story/quest focus to really gel with it. (Bonus joy, though: absolutely chaotic scenes as I utterly failed at piloting my ship 😂)

🧵 In an attempt to reduce my games backlog (it’s a truly terrible number), I’m going to keep a lovely thread of each game I either play and DNF or play and finish.

So. Here are my games I’ve played/finished in 2025!

The International Criminal Court is ditching Microsoft Office, saying it’s too dependent on US tech, in favor of Open Desk, a German open source alternative.

The move comes after Microsoft revoked ICC head Karim Khan’s email access when he was sanctioned by the US for the warrant against Netanyahu.

oh god, of course every academic in this country has to use a VPN for their work because every university department in this country somehow runs itself off a shared drive folder called admin/ADMIN/humanities/CURRENT_humanities/history/HISTORY_ALL/admin
The British government admits it is now monitoring VPNs use by UK residents. Regulator Ofcom has contracted with an AI-powered surveillance service to detect the number of citizens using VPNs to evade the Online Safety Act.

The UK tech minister has said a VPN ban is on the table.

Ignoring VPNs risks creating ineffective laws, but tracking them threatens people's privacy

14) Hades II

🎮 Finished? FUCK YES!

I just rolled credits on Hades II. What an incredible game. Game Of The Year for me for sure. Just. WOW. From the plot to the characters, the art, the MUSIC? All stunning. I loved it so much. It’s amazing.

Now for all the post-credits shenanigans 😈

This is what I try to always tell people: food banks can do way more with your money than you can, due to bulk buying deals. And they can do way, way more with your money than with the canned goods you didn’t want to eat
spoke with the executive director of my local food bank today and got this really incredible line: "if you donate 1 can of green beans, we can give away 1 can of green beans. but if you donate a dollar, we can give away 6 cans of green beans"
