one person's "ugghh this trope is so overdone" is another person's "oooooohohohohohohohoho"

I'm seeing warnings about scammers trying to commission artists but the "reference sheet" for their character they want commissioned isn't an image but a .vbs file ("visual basic script"), and will run a script when you open it, probably to yoink your account(s), but I haven't seen this from anyone who's actually clicked it yet. Just be careful and never open a file like that, 'cause people suck.

have you guys heard about the greenland shark. some crazy shit happening there.

wait murderbot's mentioned once or twice that secunits were "originally designed for" stuff like de-escalation, quick and efficient rescues, absolute minimum force and the like. ive always wondered why exactly they were designed with human faces in the first place given they're mainly used to enforce corporate slavery and having visibly expressed emotions is a detriment to that. but it would make sense if they were "meant" to be used in more of a rescue capacity, where showing empathy and being visibly familiar would be advantageous. anyway this leads into: if secunits' emotional capacity and skillset are geared towards rescue and they're used as enforcers of abuse.... well it does explain something about how fucked up they are

[The artist, putting a simple cake next to a much fancier one: “Aw man, that guy’s cake is way better than mine.” The Audience, gleefully holding up a knife and fork “HOLY SHIT! TWO CAKES!”]

“Holy shit two cakes,” I mutter to myself as I do fucking anything these days, this post was a godsend

so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god

i need all the help i can get for finals

I could use some luck

I need luck and good health. Please.

pretty sure I did the chrome//flags thing a while ago, but also i switched to firefox, which is not without the occasional bullshit, but is vastly less bullshitty than chrome. This is why I treat genai "features" like the invasive blackberry bushes they are: cut, root, burn, and vigilantly watch for new shoots to uproot. I'm 54 years old and the world got by fine without genai for most of my lifetime.
