Hello, world!

I’m following my Threads peeps, familiar faces from The Bad Place, and follows-of-follows who share interests.

If you seem botty otty otty 🤖 in the slightest, I’m gonna block. Also not doing gratuitous blue wave follow backs. Not personal, just protecting my signal to noise ratio.

This story highlights why herd immunity is so important. Of the 58 measles cases, 4 have now been reported in people who were vaccinated. The absolute last thing we want is a huge outbreak that could result in mutations that evade the vaccines. amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/02/...

I read this book back in 2023. I never thought it would reflect the reality we are living in now. Reading it again—How Civil Wars Start and How to End Them by Barbara F. Walter. A must-read.

I can’t believe the Supreme Court said the president was above the law and now the president is acting like he’s above the law.

This is sick, friend. Good luck at your expo!

I wore my FG t-shirt the other day and got to talk about teeth lamps. 😁
This is the banner design I'm going with for my booth at #TGX ( #thegameexpo , Melbourne).

In the second image you can see how I checked it at full print size; on my TV! 😁

#solodev means I often lack those extra pairs of eyes on things, so thanks to those who gave input on my previous post.

And one last note, don’t forget hearing aids. Everyone forgets hearing aids. Sometimes they’re not delirious, they just can’t hear you.

If Musk starts fucking with the banks’ money in any meaningful way, I suspect that what happens to him will be damned astounding.
I think this is our future unless someone stops him. Musk’s plan for X has been for it to replace the entire banking system. His keen interest in seizing control of Treasury payments (and its tech) may forebode an intention to have such payments go through X www.theverge.com/2023/10/26/2...

Bumping this up for the morning people. The National Academies of Science have kindly put together resources for scientists and researchers who find themselves being threatened or harassed.

This is absolutely true. But I also think that about half of the U.S. doesn’t understand what is happening or why it’s devastating. These aren’t necessarily sites that the general population uses often, but they are essential for scientists and healthcare workers to do their jobs.
This is how autocrats throughout history have endangered the people they govern by erasing factual information vital to health and well being

The thing about what is happening right now is that Federal workers do their jobs so well that in general people don’t even notice them until something is not working right. There is a very sizable part of the population that has no real understanding of what is actually happening, and they won’t…

That's 200 flyers for my WIP #indiegame 'Future Ghost', on newsprint, with a #comic page and more QR codes on the back, ready for The Game Expo ( #TGX ) next month.

Question is, for an event with 10k attendees last year, is 200 flyers enough? 🤔

Just watched the latest episode of The Pitt, which, as I’ve said, is excellent and I love it. There’s a plot line that involves a patient coming in for a medication abortion. Other than a resident needing a “yonk-hower”, it’s been pretty medically accurate as near as I can tell…

Hi, everyone in the US.

Is anyone having issues getting their passport renewed? I’m seeing one report online where a trans woman was denied a renewal regardless of gender marker, and I’d like to substantiate that to keep us well informed.

Please comment and share. No hearsay, please.
