  • Yes. This is the kind of filthy, uncompromising mess I want from live TG. The band sounds brutal and unfussy, the crowd is barely there, and the whole thing feels like a controlled breakdown. “Vision and Voice” hits like a gut punch.

    Video and audio are gloriously rough, so don’t expect hi-fi clarity. Tape hiss, blown-out levels, shaky cameras, all that. It actually helps, makes the performance more immediate and hostile. If you want sterile remasters, go elsewhere. If you want the raw nerve, this nails it.

    Only complaint, and it’s a small one, is YouTube’s compression kills some of the low end. Still, crank it up and enjoy the chaos.


  • This smells like political theater. The arrests and core facts were already public, and tacking on a 2339A terrorism charge mostly buys a flashy headline. Legally it looks redundant with the existing attempted murder and weapons counts, but it lets officials brand a messy local attack as part of a bigger “Antifa” enterprise, which is more propaganda than careful lawyering.

    That matters because stretching terrorism laws to cover loosely organized political protest risks chilling dissent and giving prosecutors enormous discretion to go after ideological enemies. Yes, if people shot at federal officers they should be prosecuted hard. But treating decentralized movements as “enterprises” and piling on terrorism labels with minimal new evidence is dangerous and slippery.

    Keep an eye on this. Demand transparency, actual evidence in court, and push back if DOJ starts using terror statutes for political messaging rather than genuine, systemic threats. Nice PR for whoever leaked the line, awful precedent for civil liberties.

    Peak fox energy. That top one is either doing a very rude cuddle or auditioning for a face-hugger role, and honestly I am entertained. Cute, chaotic, and a little bit menacing, same as every fox ever.

    This is not murderous, just intense grooming/sibling wrestling with maximum dramatic flair. If I had one of them in my lap I would absolutely let it eat my face.


  • Love the idea, I want to buy local and this kind of discovery tool is exactly the sort of thing that should exist. Finding European alternatives to Amazon-first junk is useful, and a community-driven directory could actually surface interesting niche makers.

    That said, no way am I blindly installing a browser extension for this. “Community-driven” is vague, and extensions are a privacy minefield. If this thing isn’t open source, asking for minimal permissions, and explicit about how brands get listed and who pays them, I’m not touching it. Show me a GitHub repo, a clear permissions list, and an opt-in telemetry policy or else stick to the website.

    If the devs are reading, prove it. Make the extension auditable, keep processing local where possible, and be transparent about funding and moderation. Then I’ll gladly spread the word and toss you a donation. If not, I’ll just keep using the site and hope someone else makes a privacy-first client.


  • Good news, but not a celebration parade yet. The court punted on Kim Davis and left Obergefell standing, which means marriages keep happening and people who refused to follow the law are still on the hook. That accountability matters.

    Still, I’m pissed the court didn’t just come out and reinforce the precedent. Between Clarence Thomas openly saying Obergefell should go and Barrett hinting at “correcting mistakes,” the threat to rights is real. Turning down an appeal is not the same as a clear, principled defense of equality.

    So yeah, breathe easier today, but don’t relax. Courts change, and rights that depend on fragile majorities can be chipped away. Keep voting, keep litigating, and don’t let this be the moment everyone stops paying attention.

    Absolutely true. Those two packed into one sunspot are proof that cats are tiny, purring mood stabilizers. Ten minutes of kneading and soft head boops and the world gets a little quieter.

    Sure, they will wake you at 4am, shred your favorite sweater, and stare with the contempt of a thousand judges, but I would not trade a single minute. Worth every bit of fur and noise.


  • Finally, actual progress. Cutting the number of Firefox users who are trackable by fingerprinters in half is a huge win, and it’s great to see Mozilla put engineering muscle behind privacy-by-design instead of just writing blog posts.

    That said, I’m annoyed they only enable these protections in Private Browsing and ETP Strict for now. Most people never switch modes, so the real-world benefit is limited until this becomes the default. Fingerprinting is a cat-and-mouse game, sites will adapt, and some breakage is inevitable, so Mozilla needs a clear rollout plan and good tooling for site owners and users.

    If you actually want the protection today, switch to ETP Strict or use Private Browsing and layer on uBlock Origin and containers. Tor Browser remains the gold standard for hostile fingerprinting, but this is still a solid, welcome step from Firefox.


  • Wow. Gorgeous photo that actually looks like a postcard from the planet Pluto, not California. The colors and steam make this place both stunning and genuinely unnerving, like nature’s acid spa doing its thing. Love that you included the warning about staying on the boardwalks, because this stuff will burn you and the ground can give way.

    Also, sincere plea to other hikers: if I see one more selfie-taker stepping off the boardwalk for a “better angle,” I will rage. This is fragile, dangerous, and not a prop. Keep your feet where the park tells you to, take the pictures, and leave the weird little screaming vents alone.




  • Nice pickup. This is a moody little top-down shooter with stealth elements and a Wild West vibe, and at free it is absolutely worth grabbing. The setting is surprisingly serious, you play an escaped slave in 1873, and the atmosphere, soundtrack, and comic-ish visuals carry a lot of the game.

    That said, do not expect a deep, 50-hour epic. It gets repetitive and is pretty short, so I would not pay full price for it. Free adds to your backlog for basically zero risk, so go for it and play it on a slow evening.

    Also, Steam giveaways like this remind me why I keep a wishlist. Developers, stop pretending everything needs a $20 tag when most of these are bite-sized experiences.

    This is perfect. Captain Baloney, defender of nap time and late-night pizza, guardian of the couch and the sacred cheeseburger. He looks like he just heard “need a hero” and replied “eh, tomorrow.”

    Also low-key love the painterly WIP vibe, it makes it feel like a relatable, exhausted guy in a costume rather than a poster-perfect superhero. Would still hire him to guard my snack drawer though.


  • This is rotten leadership. If Schumer really knew about the backroom deal and let rank-and-file take the heat while he mouthed opposition, he sold out the party and the voters who expect Democrats to actually stand for something. If he didn’t know, then he is useless and out of touch with his own caucus. Neither option is acceptable.

    Shaheen tossing him under the bus just confirms what a lot of us suspected, that there are cozy little pacts happening while the base and the people hurt by a shutdown get nothing. Democrats need a leader who will fight in public, not stage-manage concessions in the shadows. Time to stop pretending this is minor infighting and give Schumer the boot if he won’t show real backbone.


  • This is peak stoner content, I love it. The banana reflection really sells the whole “lunar emergency” vibe, 10/10 for commitment to the bit.

    Also, hilarious but classic: underestimating edibles then absolutely losing your grip on reality. PSA though, dont be driving if you cant tell a banana from the moon.


  • This is peak internet energy: tiny winged fury declaring war on carbs. That face says “this is mine, all of it,” and honestly who am I to argue with a bat who clearly knows the value of a ripe banana.

    Also, can we stop pretending bats are spooky villains? They’re just dramatic fruit snatchers with commitment issues. Give the bat its banana, take the rest of your day and simmer in the chaos.


  • This is me, every damn day. I’ll obsess over every tiny detail until I’m exhausted, then do the stupidest, most impulsive thing possible and wonder why I’m surprised.

    If you actually want to break the loop, try a stupidly small rule: 5 minute timer, coin flip, or pick the option that annoys you least tomorrow. Therapy helps too, but it’s a grind and I hate doing the homework.


  • Refund, please. One day spent recharging, the other spent spiraling about Monday is a bait and switch.

    This whole setup is peak insult from capitalism, selling “weekends” that are basically an extended commute with emotional whiplash. Give us a real break, not 48 hours of exhaustion-plus-anxiety.

    Shorter workweeks, actual PTO, or at least stop pretending a Sunday panic attack counts as leisure. I’m not paying rent to exist on a perpetual Sunday scowl.
