yeah, that graphic novel is OMG levels of WTF did I just read.
I love how I was well for all of two days and now I'm not. Grr.
If you don't want to, the summary: to comply with Russian law (they didn't admit that part but I know that's why they had to do it), users with the "Cyrillic Services" turned on can no longer post or comment unless they are inside Russia and identified with their government identity.
You're not wrong. And what sucks for someone who is a student of history, we're in that sucky phase of the cycle where everything is a trash fire wanting to ignite a bigger one.
been that way for a while; what the administration is doing in Venezuela is just accelerating it. In a very OMG, WTF way.
For the record: unless I know you or you're an organization whose cause I already support, asking for donations is a lost cause.
Just sent you some via PayPal - hope it helps.
So I am officially asking for help. I tried pulling my thoughts together at my DW, which I dusted off for just this occasion. It’s the most recent entry here: perclexed.dreamwidth.org
My goal is $350. I’m at $265 right now. Stretch goal is $500. Relief goal is $750.
Deadline is Jan 3.
Auld Lang Syne is traditional, but Home Free did a cover in Mandarin Chinese they released on YouTube, if you want something different. Also, Dua Lipa's "Dance the Night Away" and Taylor Swift's "New Year's Day".

Joseph Scrimshaw tweet from 2022: "Daylight Saving Time is increasingly hard to notice when my digital devices are like, 'What? Nothing happened. We know what time it is.' And my stove is left blinking and screaming, 'IT HAPPENED! TIME SHIFTED UNNATURALLY! THEY'RE ALL LYING! ONLY I KNOW! ONLY I REMEMBER!' "
Ah, it's that time again...

@ao3org As a cost estimator, Megan's always been good at making numbers add up. But after she falls for the enigmatic Duncan MacLeod, she discovers a rounding error she can't explain: him. #fanfic
look, I've seen what life looks like if you're poor and sick and have nowhere else to go but enough money that some agency will still pay for your ass to live and be cared for. That for-profit institutionalization is not what anyone's end of life care should look like.
Currently at:
— only buy tech too old to have AI built in
— painstakingly disable AI every time they add it to something that used to work perfectly well
— if it can't be switched off, abandon the platform or tool
— if there are no good alternatives, avoid the AI parts
— patiently wait for the crash

Sad to hear about the passing of the Michelangelo of Movie posters, RENATO CASARO. The Man painted so many iconic posters, specially in the 70s/80s: CONAN, TERMINATOR, DUNE, TOTAL RECALL, DANCE WITH THE WOLVES, BLOW OUT, FLASH GORDON, RAMBO, NEVER-ENDING STORY, and the list goes on and on. 1/2
i challenge you to find cooler news today than “despite all odds against American scientific research rn, a CO researcher developed a temperature-stable, single dose rabies vaccine that works bc of particles coated in CANDY & SAPPHIRE, & it could help reduce rabies deaths in places w/o electricity”
I'm starting to become convinced those of us who learned to use software without Google or AI, and who know the "deeper" intricacies of said software b/c we learned how (self-taught or otherwise) are rapidly becoming an endangered species.
Probably Highlander and/or dueSouth. I actually resisted joining for three months because I had my own site back then and didn't really see the point.

You’re welcome!
9-12 months unopened unless it's been exposed to extreme temperatures. The +📈the cocoa, the shorter the shelf life. Check the box/bag; it should have an expiration date. Chocolate bloom (a discoloration) isn't harmful, but I've never liked eating it; means the sugar/fat has risen 2 the surface.
(((hugs))) Sorry for your loss. Funerals are weird rituals sometimes.
Grace just sent this me this tok of a woman accidentally recording her cat in slow motions, and I am SOBBING from laughing so hard
