*The Crown* and *Coronation Street* have a lot more in common than both having a word for crown in the title.

I am so, so pissed off that I have to care that the two most despicable men in the world are publicly fighting.

So I looked at the "query" that Worldcon used, and as someone who has written at least two books on enterprise AI and many many developer columns on how to build AI apps, and, well, the slim hope that I'd had that they may have done things right has been dashed.

This seems up your alley. As it were.

The thrust of Alito’s dissent is: Sure, maybe the Trump administration was going to defy our unambiguous ruling and illegally deport people to a Salvadoran gulag in the dead of night. But our court MAY have cut some corners in racing to stop that from happening, which is just as bad if not worse!

she is so real for this. i love her so much. she's finally speaking out for all of us with perfect breasts . she is so brave and i stand with her as another woman with perfect breasts

I don't know why old time time fandom, which by the way had two different awards named for a slavery-defending editor, wasn't seen as inclusive by POC, nor can I fathom why more women didn't participate in what was probably the easiest way to meet Asimov, Ellison, or Garrett.

"calque" is a loanword (from French, meaning copy).

Oh shit. It’s spreading.

@marcoarment.bsky.social the iPhones have been upside down for a while now in the box and the rear of the phones is actually *right* underneath the top. So with the box upside down, yes, you probably could power the Qi. Not as well as the puck, but enough.

Jesus. I hope that’s just fictional.

whatever ends up happening to bsky I think it's beautiful a platform Jack conceived as a libertarian crypto wonderland was colonized by so many trans folks and leftist shitposters he deleted his account

Tell me where you’re from with a food pic

RIP to the sentence “Here, let me Google that for you,” the single most useful clapback of the 00s and 10s, killed by Google becoming absolutely useless for discovering any correct information whatsoever

Took me over a week and escalating tool purchases to finally figure out how to make the hole in my hardwood back door for my pet flap. But it got done.

And now to do installation I need not just the flap itself… but also the baggie of screws to fit them together. Which I put somewhere secure. Uh…

When I met Jim Starlin, he told me “There’s only one difference between writing for Marvel and and writing for DC. The editors at Marvel are tyrants, and the editors at DC are idiots.”

So, yeah, new here. Used to be on Twitter but now that *literally* doesn’t exist any more so.. nice job there, stable genius.
