Looks like a Terastallized pokemon, he so shiny and blue
A screenshot of a Terastallized Quaxly from Pokemon Scarlet/Violet. It's a white cartoon duck wearing a blue hat with a water spurt shooting out of the top of the hat. The entire character is glistening like a blue gemstone.

One excerpt from the intro: "Almost every person with a mental illness or disability has been crushed under the weight of neurotypical expectations, and has repeatedly tried and failed to earn acceptance by playing the rules of a game that was designed to harm us."

Example here, I got coordination in 3 clicks but that's not the same as "coordinated" 🥲
Screenshot of the game referenced. There is a mind map starting with the term "merger". The goal is to find the word "coordinated". I clicked on the terms "joint venture", then "cooperation", then "collaboration" and the word "coordination" appeared. However that is not close enough to the goal word of "coordinated".

Love to see it

Screenshot of the Forbes tool linked in this comment. The photo shows Elon Musk musk lost 7.1 billion dollars today, 2% of his net worth. In second place is Mark Zuckerberg losing 5.1 billion, 2.27% of his net worth. Third is Jeff Bezos losing 1.1 billion, 0.5% of his net worth. The list continues, showing only Google and Microsoft billionaires gained value today.

Meanwhile gutter guards exist 🤦
Detailed 3D rendering of a mesh gutter guard. A bright orange maple leaf rests on top of the guard to demonstrate that leaves can wash over the gutter instead of getting stuck inside.

Well I hate this. Nothing visible under the updates tab under a month in age. Coming from the USA.
Screenshot of the Google maps app after searching for "Gulf of Mexico". It redirected to an entry titled "Gulf of America" and has a notification that says "Posting is currently turned off". After clicking on the details button underneath, it has a generic message saying that this might get reviews that are against Google policy so posts are turned off.

In case you need snack suggestions, these rice cracker snacks are awesome.

I just wish I didn't have to go hunt down an Asian market any time I want them 😭
An orange bag of rice cracker snacks sits on a wooden table. The only text in English characters is "Kotsubukko" and "since 1982". There is a picture of the snack which looks like golden fried craggy puffs, a bit like popcorn. In the upper right is a cup of honey with a honey dipper, indicating it is made with honey. There are also three cartoon characters whose heads look like the snack. They are wearing yellow, blue, and green party hats, and have squared orange bodies with stick limbs.

Well now I feel silly. Please post your sources, friends.

An infographic explains "Replacing gasoline-powered cars with EVs saves energy, regardless of the energy source used to recharge the EVs". Replacing gasoline with EVs powered by coal power plants still reduces energy use by 29%

A dilute calico cat curled up into a nearly indiscernible pile of fluff. Some pink cat toes are visible. The setting is shadowy, on a dark grey couch.

Found some weird deceptive AI accounts advertising a recipe website. They could be just getting ad revenue, or making their domain trustworthy before sharing malware, or many other goals. Stay safe my friends, and report any similar accounts you see.

Screenshot of an account named Jada Parker. It has 15k followers, is following 40.6k accounts, and has 105 posts. It features a wide variety of tasty looking photos, all of which are likely AI generated or stolen. The profile picture is a white woman with brown hair in a chef outfit standing in a kitchen. To the right of her is an open cabinet absolutely stuffed with Tupperware which most people would not display. On the counter there's a knife block with too many knife handles, and what maybe was supposed to be a kettle but it looks malformed and not like any name brand. Her bio includes a link to her website with just her first name + "recipes" + ".com" . They even included a linktree link to mimic popular social media accounts. Screenshot of a blue sky account for Dina Parker. They have 1.8k followers, are following 22.5k accounts, and have 4 posts. They are only reposting Dina's recipes and redirecting to her account in their bio. The header is a generic banner that reads "Please Follow My Grandma's". The profile picture is of a girl of maybe 10-14 years old in a pink collared dress that looks a bit old fashioned. She has white skin with long brown hair standing in a grassy field, there is little to indicate the photo is AI at first glance.

Participating in the Meta blackout, but if I'm being honest I wouldn't take much convincing to permanently leave.

Looking for some new social media friends 👋
