Merry Hexmas everyone!

some days you’re the robot, some days you’re the dog,

and other times you just happen to be a raccoon with a surplus ghetto blaster

I liked it as well, go watch it

o_O

it’s real but it was hackers commandeering the projectors

edit: or maybe not, I bothered looking up a Berlin newspaper article talking about it, and apparently it’s a screengrab from a fake video. The two cop cars under the gate do look fishy / duplicated

Last of Us was good
Halo is generally pretty well received, though I felt it was sorta mid (but enjoyable enough, I guess)

this just reminded me, amazon is still doing that Disco Elysium show I believe

How dare you, dithering is the People’s Blur

I’m gonna miss them and I hope this wasn’t the last we’ve heard from them… Kyle already mentioned he may be on the other emancipation network shows on occasion and I’m looking forward to that. Hope for June the job’s worth it, sounds like a stressful gig but all the best with that too.

I really am gonna miss em tho

oh no, what’s this now…

are they really ending it, I gotta listen

lemons are great for this. You don’t need all of it, just the skin. press the lemon and enjoy the juice, put the skins on the glass rack and you’ll have a fresh lemon flavor when opening the door. needs replacing every other wash or so (they get hard and stop smelling)

in addition to just getting off earlier, you can also try to filter some of the blue light / glare from your screens towards the evening. The most popular sunset simulation redshift thingy is probably flux and I recommend giving it a shot. Might help you get tired more easily

It’s not a magic bullet or anything, but I find it relaxing for my eyes at least and it might help your sleep too

hoplophobia

talk about medicalizing/pathologizing your political enemies

In 1997, Cooper wrote that he coined the term hoplophobia in 1962 “in response to a perceived need for a word to describe a mental aberration consisting of an unreasoning terror of gadgetry, specifically, weapons.”

In 1991, Cooper wrote in Guns & Ammo magazine that “no more than five to ten people in a hundred who die by gunfire in Los Angeles are any loss to society. These people fight small wars amongst themselves. It would seem a valid social service to keep them well-supplied with ammunition.” In 1994, Cooper said “Los Angeles and Ho Chi Minh City have declared themselves sister cities. It makes sense: they are both Third World metropolises formerly occupied by Americans.”

This video has the tea on Indian fascism.

Hindutva is a sort of restoration project of the caste system (largely financed and steered by members of historically elite castes) and it has been going since Scientific Racism times

you just gotta take the whole lane bro, take space like a car

I was playing around with stable diffusion for like a day and tried to generate a surveillance cam overgrown with moss. It just wouldn’t do it, and I ended up with a bunch of pictures of trees overgrown with moss that have cams on them. The surveillance-machine-fed machine can’t imagine the surveillance machine being overgrown but it can readily imagine the surveillance machine growing on the overgrowth. I found it poetic how radically limited the creativity of the new, supposedly radical creativity machine turned out to be. Still looked kinda cool, so I rolled with it and now I’m used to it.

Yes, they do.

(Desk meaning the table my surfing machine rests on. I have never consumed canned fish at the workplace. The NAFC stands for and promotes a responsible use of canned fish.)

high in sodium

you’re thinking of anchovies, I think. There’s less than a gram of salt in the 100g sardines sitting in front of me rn

high in saturated fats

again, from the sardines on my desk: 17,3g of fat per 100g; only 3,5g of those are saturated. Idk if that’s high to you, but it doesn’t seem to be to me

bpa, pcbs

like all canned foods, yea. High, also is relative here, though I can’t really find reliable numbers rn. If you know more, please share

mercury

not really, I think you’re thinking of tuna? Sardines are a very small fish near the bottom of the food network, feeding on krill - there isn’t really much bio-accumulation going on here, compared to bigger fish. There’s some mercury in them for sure, but you’d have to eat a lot of sardines to get to dangerous levels

This post has been paid for by the North Atlantic Fishery Council, I hope you have enjoyed this social media content and will consider consuming 100 - 400g of canned sardines per day.

Also just wanna say, it’s not very nice of you to be calling me an idiot when I even went out of my way to provide a CW for vegan sensibilities. I did find your post in response pretty funny though. Also also, I am eating those beans as well, don’t you worry.

pretty sure this is a direct response to my positive comment about sardines a few days ago. Even got a reply from OP there, calling me an idiot

Probably a good idea, yea. The fat also helps with Vit D absorption/bio-availability, so it’s probably an even better idea to take them together (Krill oil + VitD/Multivit)

CW for the vegans, I’ll be talking about canned fish in this comment

Check out those deenz, folks. Try and descend your snouts into a funky can of sardines this season. They’re real good; rich in bio-available Vitamin D, rich in healthy fats and they got a lot of calcium too. Get some tasty sardines (ideally, with skin on and bones in), laid to rest in a fresh drizzle of olive oil and enjoy that little bite of the seas. I’ve started eating a bunch of canned fish (mostly herring and sardines, tuna isn’t ideal) this winter and my skin is a lot better, as is the seasonal depression. Can recommend

it’s nature’s multivitamin, really
