Angry. No, angrier than that. The world is garbage and everything in it is garbage and it's down to selfish cowards who want *everything* so the rest of us have to live in a garbage world full of garbage.

Apparently, leftists should be aware that "posting online is not activism".

Okay. But it's what I've got. Take it or leave it.

Anyway I'm not really 'a leftist'. As I've said, if I could I'd assimilate you all and MAKE you kind and happy and safe.

I can't, so leftist policies it has to be.
It's ironic that for such a visually pretty game, it's the starfields that let #Starfield down.

They just look so oddly cartoony. Space isn't particularly dark, the stars are big painted-on-the-background splodges and there's no exposure or washout when there's a local sun near the field of view.

The Epstein Files are important. But the shit being done by the US regime isn't all just a distraction from them. It's a plan being executed.

Trump is controlling company CEOs using royal favour.

This is how Putin established power.

America: *you are being conquered*.

One thing I am quite interested in is, given the US no longer wants friends, only subjects; and given it views other NATO states as adversaries and is considering declaring war on the alliance to seize Greenland, what is Europe doing about the fact that our entire economy runs on Microsoft software?

Wild to have spent 10yrs since Brexit watching our democratic institutions revealed as a loose, fragile and easily undermined collection of lines on paper, norms and unwritten civility protocols. A game for the complicit who speak the language and realise that there are no real consequences.

The richest man in the world does not want CSAM and other sexually abusive material to be restricted on his platform.

He wants his users to be able to generate and distribute such imagery.

Musk claims outcry over Grok deepfakes is an 'excuse for censorship'

Yes. It is. It absolutely is. It was written as one. Because the films warning about the ease with which a tyrant can overthrow a complacent democracy didn't get through to people.

Maybe Star Wars was never going to be the thing that prompted the realisation, but you can't say they didn't try.
I just realized that the Disney-Star Wars series ANDOR is an instructional video.

No, Paramount Plus, there isn't a problem with the Internet. There isn't a problem with my connection.

There is, as always, a problem with your shitty streaming 'service'.

Ah, lunchtime. And here I sit in a rather echoey open-plan office in silence but for the quiet hum of machines, and the sounds of coworkers diligently chewing and crunching.

I fully support that society in Star Trek: Enterprise who considered eating an act as private as going to the toilet.

I am so tired.

It's not that I don't feel the rage as much as I ever did. Probably more, in fact. Why wouldn't I? How could one not?

I'm just more tired than I ever remember feeling. It's constant. It's physical and mental. I can't focus on anything. Even complicated videogames are too exhausting.

Short-video creators who post someone else's thing but superimpose themselves in front of it so they can practice exaggerated facial expressions throughout while making no meaningful contribution to proceedings.

Don't make the mistake of thinking that Bluesky isn't a right-aligned capitalist operation just because it's not yet as explicit about it as Musk made Twitter.
It's worth noting that BlueSky banned Patton Oswald for a post (click through for details) but haven't banned the "Department of War" for posting and actual threat of imminent violence along with a video of them killing people.

On the one hand, it's obviously great that King Donald is riling his subjects over the H1B visa thing, and that there are mutterings against him even amongst the faithful.

On the other hand, it's kind of disheartening that they're only pissed off because they don't think he's being racist enough.

Why are medical people pathologically (ahem) unable to abbreviate "Obstetrics and Gynaecology"?

Instead of saying "ob-gyne" or "ob-gee", Brits make themselves say "Obs And Gynae"; and Americans seems committed to "oh-bee-gee-why-en" - which just *isn't how abbreviation works*.

One day, the option to Update and Shut Down is going to end with my computer shut down, rather than refreshed, restarted and ready to go.

As far as ambitions go, obviously my ideal would be to be able to assimilate the entire world's population and make all you fuckers just coexist.

But in the interim I'd settle for being able to afford a car with these obnoxious LED headlights so I can dazzle some other bastards for a change.

Forgot it was bloody Recreational Explosive night as well. Fuck me but time goes fast these days.

Seriously, don't get old.

I mean, DO get old, obviously. The alternative is no fun at all. But, just, take a minute here and there, you know?

Oh, and please ditch the deafening-racket bombs, ne?

Ugh. When you want to download an app quickly but you've only got a 5G signal...

Honestly all those conspiracists drivelling on about the 5G zombie apocalypse, and not one of them mentioned the actual problem with the thing: it's shit.

I am not a fashionable person. So I do not understand the current Facebook fad (is it 'current' or have I just never noticed it before) of Creators® putting out videos of themselves sitting and gazing silently into the camera while a text caption displays a tweet-worth of opinion.

Why thanks, All-pervading Global Tech Company, for letting me know you've Updated Your Terms Of Service.

Let me guess: you are now reminding me in *slightly different words* that you own me and all my data, have the right to do whatever you want at your will, and I can eat shit and pay up?
