If you were trying to build a permanent computer, where would you start?

My desktop has more power than I will ever use. The software does everything I need it to. So why would I upgrade? Really: because software companies force me to. So…

How about a Plateau Desktop? A thirty year machine?

Oh, for fuck's sake

WOW: THE ONION has acquired Alex Jones’ INFOWARS in a bankruptcy auction, in a bid sanctioned by the families of the victims of the Sandy Hook shooting.

Gun control group Everytown for Gun Safety will advertise on a relaunched version of the site.

This is not satire.

Women not liking guys who play video games tends to not be the act of the game itself but rather than a good chunk of bad bfs put the game as a higher priority of attention than the gf when they are over.

At least from what I have observed and heard from others.

When I filed to run for Lexington’s 4th District seat against a conservative incumbent, I knew it would be an uphill battle.

But I could see a feasible path to victory.

We ended up flipping the seat.

Here are some things that I think our campaign did well (and also not so well).

If you have the AUDACITY to play video games on "easy" or "story" mode...

I want you to know that I think that's a perfectly acceptable way to enjoy a video game that you paid for because you're supposed to enjoy your favorite pastime any way you like.

Real life's hard enough. Enjoy your hobby.👍

Today would have been Carl Sagan's 90th birthday. He wrote this in 1995. Carl was absolutely right. #CarlSaganDay

I miss how satisfying it was to put a 3.5 inch floppy disc into a drive. The older 5.25 ones were as satisfying as inserting a cd, which is to say not at all, but the 3.5 ones? Mmmmm

I didn't expect to wake up to over 2K followers. So let me reintroduce myself: Black woman, Black feminist academic. I write about racism, misogynoir and more. I teach issues of social inequality. I also love star trek and books 📚

Welcome to the ride!

Nicky got lightly sedated at the vet, please enjoy this picture of him orbiting Saturn

my new setup, with terraria actually running this time

Wow! I didn’t expect my last post to blow up the way it did!

I’m glad y’all are here 💙

It looks like a lot of folks are interested in the specifics of our strategy/how we flipped this seat.

Would y’all be interested in a thread on how we ran our campaign and what my big takeaways have been?

Need a brief distraction from the world today? Time for a good stupid joke thread.

Please feel free to jump on board. The stupider the better.

Nothing sadder than a dog looking forward to a morning run in the yard only to find out the yard is being visited by her mortal enemy, rain. She’s now back in the house, slightly wet and sulking.
