Lux mysteriosa ✨
Outside with the cat one last time this evening & I noticed Antares (ɑ Sco) sneaking across the horizon just above the communication towers with their red lights on the Königstuhl.
It was twinkling, so I wondered if I could capture its changing colours, as I usually do with Sirius in wintertime.
I could & I did, by panning slowly across the scene in a 10 sec exposure. The result turned out rather lovely in an abstract kind of way.
CEO says the game is projected to meet expectations, but there are cuts anyway.

A lot of y'all aren't old enough to remember before the affordable care act.
And a lot of y'all don't realize that the only "treatment" for autism approved by most insurance companies is ABA, which is physical torture.

I'm the oldest of 6 kids (it was 5 growing up, and back to 5 now because my middle sibling died from covid in 2022).
But, while we're all neurodivergent as fuck, one of my siblings was nonverbal until about age 6.
And her dx had to be "sensory integration disorder" to bypass the insurance bullshit.
They're like PETA, they fundraise based on hurting the ones they're supposed to be there for.

A bit of a wild day at the Gloucestershire Police & Crime Panel. I feel that this is local politics at the coalface.
hey for #bandcampFriday this time i’m hoping for a little mutual aid.
my dog needs some vet care soon that’s gonna cost at least a couple thousand dollars. right now our only option is to put it on credit cards. we’ll manage one way or another so please send your mutual aid money elsewhere if you see folks who really need it.
but if you’ve got a budget for bandcamp music, and weird queer electronic music sounds good, plz consider spending a few bucks on my music today?
I can't wrap my head around this. Reminder of the olden days of flip phones' "new fone who dis?". But that was kind of understandable.
In 2025? When everything is "in da cloud "???

71% of faculty in Florida who were surveyed said they would not encourage a graduate student to seek employment in Florida.
Reasons: state policy on tenure, elimination of diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, and cost of living.
Ieri sera si parlava di cinema horror con alcuni amici al circolo e, come al solito,
mi torna in mente questo capolavoro.
I primi due film versione giapponese (in entrambe le versioni) mi hanno letteralmente terrorizzato...
e ne ho visti parecchi di film horror nella mia vita.
Qualche anno dopo ho scoperto questi corti, l'inizio di tutto,
e ho capito che il regista era già partito molto bene, a mio parere.
Da vedere assolutamente se non l'avete mai visto.
Bravo Takashi Shimizu!

What about not attacking successful indiegames for setting "unrealistic expectations" and instead direct your anger towards the encroaching consolidation of the industry that affects big AAA studios as well small indie outfits.
Tired of the gaming press pitting indies against each other, instead of calling out their big sponsors for sucking up all the resources while delivering half a billion dollar of unplayable slop.

George Carlin said in "Carlin on Campus" (1984):
"Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac?"
Your challenge is to apply this formula to age, and fill in the blanks:
"Have you ever noticed that anybody older than you is _______, and anyone younger than you is _______?"

If you apply the scale so that it becomes a circle (as it should be) this spot is far more of the chart's..
in the current presentation it looks achievable, which is not😁
