Some people have allowed their bitterness that they can't live in a Georgian townhouse on a mid-market salary send them mad, frankly. 'The park shouldn't be out of bonds to residents for most of the summer' is not an unreasonable ask!
漁港附近的狗狗感覺都很顧家，只要一聽到有人經過立馬跑出來狂吠，意思請你快點走，不要再靠近了！！雖然很想表現淡定不予理會，但狗狗愈走愈近仍有一種壓迫感在注視著我。

kurt cobain meets william burroughs
Kurt Cobain was…
…first exposed to Burroughs’ work in high school, it heavily influenced Cobain’s writing when he started enforcing the Beat writer’s “cut-up” method. First introduced to Burroughs by artist Brion Gysin and inspired by a similar technique used by Dadaists by the 1920s, the collage-like approach mixes words and phrases that are pieced together, often creating juxtaposing text or narratives.
“My lyrics are total cut-up,” said Cobain.”I take lines from different poems that I’ve written. I build on a theme if I can, but sometimes I can’t even come up with an idea of what the song is about.”

Although for some of us this is a well-known problem, it has appeared again with the release of DOOM: The Dark Ages so it's worth a quick PSA to remind people about Denuvo activation limits with Proton on Linux, SteamOS / Steam Deck.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)

#astroliquen in the Agora of Flancia 😀
Here you can see the built in Agora Assistant, which is based on Mistral (one of the most open AI providers I know).
The image displays a text excerpt from a webpage discussing the term "Astroliquen." The text is presented in a dark gray box with white and blue text. The heading at the top reads "AI generations by Agora Assistant · ChatGPT · Claude · Gemini." The main body of the text explores the concept of "Astroliquen," suggesting it is a blend of "astro," relating to stars and cosmos, and "lichen," a symbiotic organism formed by algae and fungi. The text proposes that "Astroliquen" could be a species or phenomenon thriving in space, combining lichen characteristics with the ability to survive in the vacuum of space. It also touches on the scientific aspects of extremophiles, organisms that thrive in extreme environments, and the philosophical or spiritual angle, symbolizing interconnectedness and resilience. The text concludes by mentioning science fiction literature and cosmic art as sources of inspiration for creative interpretations of "Astroliquen." At the bottom, there is a link to Wikipedia, leading to the node "Nemer ibn el Barud."

The EU Citizens' Initiative against "conversion therapies" is still accepting signatures:
eci.ec.europa.eu/043/public/#/…
The deadline is today, but no time is specified. The website appers to run on UTC+2. Keep it moving. The minimum has been achieved, but more signatures and more countries reaching the threshold would clearly be better.
Remember, it's EU citizenship that matters, not residence, so UK academia should be sharing, as plenty of us can sign, and we have plenty of friends in EU countries.

in reply to Jesse • • •The image features two cartoon-style characters, both with brown hair and blushing cheeks, standing side by side. The character on the left has long, wavy hair and is wearing a white shirt with a blue tie and a black skirt. She is holding a book with a rainbow-colored cover that reads "I SUPPORT MY GAY WIFE" in bold, red letters. The character on the right has shorter, straight hair with a red hairpin and is wearing a black school uniform with a white collar and a black skirt. She appears to be surprised or shocked, with her hands clasped in front of her and a red mark on her forehead indicating surprise. Above them, there is a red speech bubble with the text "YOU ARE GAY TOO!!" in bold, white letters. The background is plain white, emphasizing the characters and their expressions.
