Foaming at the mouth about YouTube.
Parentfuckers, stop randomly changing stupid little shit just to break every script I have in place to keep your website from infuriating me.
I never, ever want a video to auto-play. If I should genuinely feel the need to trust you sociopathic corporate fuckstains to roll tape before I'm good and ready, just shove an icepick in the spongecake that plays at being my frontal cortex because I've clearly lost my mind and need to be made safe.
Fuck YouTube.

The general consensus seems to be:
1) 20th Century Fox owns the "Alien" franchise.
2) "Alien" xenomorphs are born from a Queen.
3) Disney is buying 20th Century Fox.
Therefore
4) Xenomorphs are Disney princesses.
Hey, all you techies out there, awesome free idea for you:

Make this happen.

Roy Moore tweets that we’ve got to go back to the recognition of god, and to that end I’ve created this handy god recognition chart you can keep in your pocket!

Adorably petty design complaint.
And here's the part that takes this from "mild misstep in the practicality department" to "did any of you knuckledraggers ever try to actually use this bloody thing":
It looks like this from the back. (Hey, look who has brand-new third-gen Hue bulbs in their bedroom!)

All that exhaust grill space where it curves downward? Empty inside. It would have been trivial to mould a handle into the centre.
Adorably petty design complaint.
I own a "portable room air purifier" which is essentially a glorified box fan with HEPA and charcoal filters strapped to it.
The manufacturer's definition of portability involves four small casters on the bottom of the thing, which makes for trivial relocation effort provided it's only travelling on a hardwood floor and not over any threshholds.
Sadly, it becomes evident in every single other reasonable use case that what the thing really needed was a HANDLE.
No need for response or acknowledgement, but I wanted to thank all my friends, comrades, and ther like for their understanding while I do my best to cope with duloxetine withdrawal symptoms, the emotional range of which can basically be summed up thus:
MY HEAD IS FULL OF FUCK.
In 1992, Windows 3.1 launched with support for TrueType fonts.
Twenty-five years later and despite running on hardware many orders of magnitude more powerful, Windows 10 can't cope with having a measly 1600 fonts installed.
WHERE'S MY DAMN JETPACK—

If I were asked to describe the core idea of postfurry in a single phrase, I'd say "radical self-authorship".

Finally, this seed is done. Fifteen freakin' hours of wandering about, most of it trying to find the bloody Magic Mirror.
And yes, that's Neon Link. Don't try to play with Neon Link unless you really like barely being able to see yourself.

fragmentary text of "The Wanderer," Anglo-Saxon poem
Well there's Hilde on my left and there's Devona on my right
And Mercia is the girl that I'll be with tonight
And when she asks me which one I love the best
I open up my kyrtul to show Aethelinde on my chest
I am the wanderer
They call me the wanderer
Yes I'm the wanderer
I go around and around and around and around
Oh where is the horse and rider, and where is the horn a blowin'?
Where is the helm and hauberk and the bright hair flowin'?

Tozen At Lowes:
Tozen was smashing flower pots at Lowes when his student, a store clerk, approaches in agitation.
"Tozen! Why are you destroying these pots?"
The master shook his head.
"I have destroyed nothing. The void which constitutes the pot still remains."
The student-clerk was incredulous
"I do not see this void."
Tozen smiled "Look around you."
The clerk did as he was told.
When he looked back to Tozen he saw nothing, and was enlightened.

When people talk about "doing the best you can with what you've got," it's really, really important *not* to read that as "doing the best humanly possible."

I think it's really cool that I know a bunch of people who were AMAB, transitioned to something in the vicinity of "woman", then later moved to "oh my gender is way more interesting that that, imma re-adopt back a lot of guy-spectrum stuff."
Don't let people talk shit about "de-transition" or whatever as if there's one simple narrative.
The game _Spelunky_ definitely has the "holy crap this is hard why am I still playing this is it three A.M. already just one more try" nature to it, kinda like _The Binding of Isaac_ does.
That having been said, both games have one flaw that really irks me. I'll phrase it like this:
Any game mechanic that can be circumvented by cranking up one's display gamma or brightness is _not_ a reasonable game mechanic.

Ment of "gender-reveal parties" but not in the way you'd expect and an overall positive post
Found this gem in my Facebook history:
"I vote we repurpose the term gender reveal party to be a party where a trans or nonbinary person has just come out publicly so their friends have a party with them to celebrate, and depending on case-by-case maybe give them gifts like new wardrobe stuff if they're changing how they present cause aint nobody got money for a whole new look at once." ~ @Keltoi
