I’ve heard that OpenAI is being sued for multiple people harming themselves and the slop producer is being an ass about it. My first thought was “good, sue the cunts into oblivion”. My second was this, which I had to make to get it out of my head.
Meme created over a scene from Monsters Inc, with Waternoose in a three piece suit and bow tie. Waternoose is labelled “Sam Altman” and the text below reads: “I’ll cause a thousand suicides before I let this company die!”.

Image from Super Mario 64 of Mario spinning around Bowser by the tail, with the intention of blowing his ass apart on a bomb. The text over it reads “So Long Gay Bowser”.

To those furries:
Two image meme: Top image has a blonde woman in the foreground and a confused man in the background with the text “I can excuse fascism but I draw the line at not being able to look at cock. Bottom image has a confused and affronted woman with the text “You can excuse fascism?”

A cartoon with an old, balding man in a brown jacket sitting behind a wooden desk. He is on the phone and the scene through the window behind him shows that it’s dusk. The text reads: “What’s that, you say? There’s lords? And they’re falling?”.

This fucking scene. IYKYK.
Figure in a white cloak with a red mask, a tear in their eye and holding glowing crystals in their hands. Text box overlaid spoken by Elidibus reads: "My people. My brothers ... My friends."

Post a photo you took with no context to bring some zen to the timeline.
Photograph of the inside of the Tate Modern in London. The building itself has high ceilings and the metal and concrete aesthetic is wonderfully stark against the indistinguishable shapes of an art installation hanging from the ceiling.

Not my home, but I know my way around.
Screenshot of the lobby of the Raccoon Police Department in Resident Evil 2 (2019). It’s a palatial room with a large, lit statue as a focal point. The copious lighting does little to brighten the dim dread of the setting.

In this house, we kneel for the flag. 🫡

The flag:
Rainbow pride flag with a dumb white dog in the middle that likes kissing boys.

Just had a blast at Shadow Raccoon’s Price is Right with Jack (with bonus Lonely in the background). Now to chill in the bar until the next thing. 😁

Obligatory “how to find me at #scotiacon” post.

I’ll probably be sitting somewhere playing TCGs or my Switch, or in the Barkade. Come say hi! 🫶
Photo of the real life Van, wearing a black tshirt and hoodie, with a stupid haircut - as always. Picture of Van by tatsukilla. A grinning grey and white anthropomorphic husky with dark red tips of the ears and line running from the left eye to the jawline. He’s wearing a silver chain, green and cream varsity jacket and has piercings in the right ear (but you can’t see them due to the pose).

Meme with a scummy car salesman next to a generic car trying to sell said car to a mildly pensive man in a white shirt. Caption reads “This baby can chronicle so many crystals”.

I will give my brain a little credit here though, look how shiny and clean Zeb is now. 😁🥰

Level 39 achieved.

Now to wrangle with the idea that I am old without actually feeling nor (arguably) looking old.
