Happy 13th birthday to the most essential artwork of the current era, @kcg.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy ‘s “This is fine,” to all those who celebrate.

@davidgerard Everyone with a superannuation account (so almost every Australian) is a shareholder. Once you get your head around that a lot of our gov decision making makes a lot more sense. Every barista in that shop is a shareholder over here, even if they don't think of it like that.

#TIL today I learned that it’s possible to sponsor a gay German sheep 😮🏳️‍🌈 Somehow that makes my day slightly brighter. 😄

Crackdown.

Start considering moving your communities out of Discord now. Don’t wait for the enshittiffication to arrive, the clock is ticking. No one will listen to me, but let’s talk again later. https://www.reuters.com/business/chat-platform-discord-confidentially-file-us-ipo-bloomberg-news-reports-2026-01-06/

@TashTaylor You could write a script that just goes "BRAND, please stop turning off USER DEFINED SETTING every PRODUCT update. I know you're fully committed to making your product worse with every patch, but this is deeply frustrating" and never have to type up a status update for the rest of your life.

Next time Trump, Vance and their cronies threathen to take Greenland, the EU nations need to combine their most special forces, invade Mar-a-Lago, abduct Trump, Melania, Vance, Rubio, and whoever "important" is present, and bring them to the International Criminal Court in The Hague. Lock them up, indict them, ready court sessions.

Me after reading the news on any given day

The Fascist says one of the justifications for removing Maduro was he refused to honor the results of a democratic election.

Irony is dead.

I wish we had spent the last 26 years teaching people that the reason the 2000 bug didn't destroy a significant amount of our infrastructure is because *we caught it* and *spent thousands of hours fixing it* BEFORE the year 2000

Because within that little perplexion - people thinking the problem was a hoax because it was fixed before it destroyed shit - is an encapsulation of the current era of Western politics, including COVID mitigation, lesser evil politics, fascism, and crime rate hyperbole

@betsybookworm If I'm lucky enough to get off the front exit I'll wave at them by way of thank you but ITS NOT THE SAME!

I'm really tired of hearing terms like "digital detox".

We don't need to "detox" from digital. We need to wrest control of digital away from the capitalist oligarchs who have corrupted it into a torment nexus.

@scy Profanity in Australian media is how we differentiate between adult and children's shows. If there's no cursing at all it feels forced and fake.

They say you should dress for the job you want, but I've been dressing like a gently mad Victorian widow who lives in a haunted mansion on the moors for years now, and I've yet to receive a single offer of gainful employment.

@FSonder I got a job working in a factory that made little plastic dracula toys, but there were only two of us working in the factory so I had to make every second count.

Important Announcement:

2025 has been eaten.
