Found the RWBY soundtracks preserved on Deezer. Listened to them while running errands this morning.
It really feels like a homecoming and seeing an old friend that's changed - a lot - but being really happy for them.
I won't be apologising.

I wish: Google
A very: Why are you welcoming me to your AI platform that I didn't apply for and have no interest in joining? Where's the "opt out forever" option?
Also there is no way to contact your customer support team, so I've marked Gemini as a phishing scam. Because it is. Fuck right off.

I may have to uninstall Destiny, which... really hurts.
Not that I'm playing it or enjoying it a whole lot, but the fact I have multiple lag spikes from (what appears to be RAM) makes it almost unbearable to play. :(

I'm glad people are having fun with Destiny Rising but I have such contempt for gacha that I ain't touching it at all. Instead I'll just look at the cool art direction from afar.

Jobcentre has now required me.
I have saved enough for rent but am now practically out of food.
Payment early September. My life is now in two sets of people's hands - the DWP and recruiters.
This is who I dance and perform for now rather than myself. Should make a D&D character to process this.

Develop: Brighton 2025 was packed with fun and solemn looks at videogame development, but it wasn’t immune to the key pitfall that plagues so many games conferences – the accessibility issue that comes with the cost barrier. @maddie-b-a.bsky.social reports:

Cleaning off files (mainly screenshots) from my PC and wondering why I took this one....
Oh yeah, its because a Cabal-themed solar glavie would be REALLY cool if it looked like this - basically an elongated Cabal Galdiator's Sword/Sabre. Bonus points for any exotic "enrage" themeing.

Whelp, start the doomsday clock.
Just paid my rent & bills for next month. Unsure if I'll be able to pay after that while still able to eat.
Future is now in other peoples (recruiters) hands.

Still don't appreciate that Gambit *isn't* in the Portal system.
I get it Bungie, leave it out of the menus while you figure out what to do with it. Let the player numbers trickle away to zero and eventually sunset it.
Over my cold Gilded Dredgen title.
Please, make it an alternative to PvP.

Great post on queer porn and adult content being valuable and important in representing the queer experience. The enemy is religious conservatism lobbying LGBTQ people (and women! and anything deemed deviant!) out of existence.

So, this is going to be one heck of a stretch but:
Does anyone know someone that works in or knows about perfumes?
I have a scent in mind I want to recreate (in perfume form, not deoderant) but I have ZERO knowldge or experience how to or where I could buy it.

So. Easy to manage alternatives to Microsoft OS' that will still run all my Steam games without me getting banned, and still let me work?
Asking for a friend. Or a few 9000.

hey chat, I may have accidentally started a hyperfixation on the obscure BBC video game/game show "FightBox" (2003).
I wish I made something like that in Uni.
Or even wrote an academic essay on it.
Or find out what happened to the winner and contestants.
