Everyone saying ‘a special place in hell’ is well meaning but in my opinion-I’m not willing to wait till the fuckers die and the people they’ve hurt deserve to see some earthly consequences.
I hope every one of them lives long enough to suffer.

Apparently they are making an LOTR game ‘to directly compete with Hogwarts Legacy’ and this terrifies me because I think what everyone actually wants is The Elder Scrolls: Middle Earth Edition and we may never get that. 1/3

It would appear that we have found yet a new way to make IT stupid.
Like guys this isn’t hard-kids vs killer clown shapeshifter thing it’s not that bloody complicated.
Why does everyone insist on trying to make this specific story worse than its last iteration?

Can’t tell you how much I love that basically every anti-virus software that exists now does nothing but scan for problems that it won’t fix unless you pay more money.

Look I hate the Dodgers as much as the next girl but as a Yankee supporter I do have to sympathize with their fans.
It is douchey to believe that just because you root for a small market team that fleeces their fans every year and always loses that you love the game more 1/3

This article is interesting, not because not wearing makeup is a bold choice but because most of the article is ‘experts’ weighing in on why you should still buy a ton of beauty and skincare products as if makeup had necessary benefits that are being lost.
The desperation to sell is palpable.

I really try not to post about politics on here because I like to think of it as a place I can go to get away from that shit but please call your congressperson.
It really does work if enough people take the time and we should all be making time now.

Something can be aesthetically pleasing, even beautiful but not be art.
There is no such thing as AI art. Art requires the effort of a creator and prompting a machine is not effort.
Something that is not pretty, even ugly CAN be art because it’s human effort and skill.
Pretty was never the point

My one friend has admitted that she doesn’t know what the Edmund Fitzgerald is.
She is currently trying unsuccessfully to hide her horror at how much my wife and other friend absolutely do know what the Edmund Fitzgerald is.
