I misheard, you filth still vote for fucking fascists. Fuck you.

Last night I made a confit of garlic to make the garlic oil I needed to make @cynthia1960's birthday dinner.

Tonight I took the confit garlic, smashed it up, added butter, salt, chopped parsley, and olive oil and made a spread for garlic bread to have with penne in a tomato sauce.

Is there a plugin for Baldur's Gate 3 that replaces the meshes of the bad guys with those of actual conservatives and centrists?

Prioritizing capital and "data centers" over actual humans? Is it a symptom of LLM use, syphilitic behavior, or just being a fascist? Ask your doctor, but then your doctor's probably using a LLM as well.

So, you know that space mirror that the US space bro company is forcing on us all? Turns out the actual Nazis had the idea first. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/i6nLbd7_wnM

Good piece on how fascists manufacture political candidates that cater to ignorant, entitled, young men who masturbate to rape videos and get elected.

It's funny watching people on bsky complain about how "there are four social sites" (they refuse to count fedi) and that they can't escape the internecine fights of small communities who are on them, when they could come here and set up an instance blocklist.

You can be sure the centrist clown, who thinks conservatives have good ideas, who won the Wisconsin primary, thinks that hacking your car so it won’t show ads is a grave crime.

In four years I’ve put over 2,000 miles on my e-bike.

Edit: @cynthia1960 (who's birthday is today and have you wished her a happy birthday) reminded me that's over 3,600 km, or 2,000 freedom units.

Sad that so many people in Wisconsin get upset when told that Thanksgiving is a colonizer holiday.

Emotional support durian.

Thanks, everyone sharing their eclipse photos!
