Come next year, there will be legal adults who had not been born yet when I first became involved in the furry fandom.

Spooky.

I might give streaming another crack. I did a couple like, a year ago, but internet and tech foibles messed me around enough that stopped trying.

Also talking to an empty room is kinda hard, yo.

Yeah, Don't Look Up is a pretty heavy-handed allegory for climate change and climate change denial.

The sad part is that I don't think a lot of people would notice that if it wasn't heavy-handed. 🙃️

Everyone always goes right to God is a DJ or Insomnia when it comes to best Faithless tracks but I really prefer Mass Destruction or Bring My Family Back myself.

On that note, if any y'all fuzzies been involved in any interesting projects, or can scan/photograph old con books or whatever, that can all be useful information to put on WikiFur :>

Over the festive period I've found myself trawling through Archive.org snapshots and social media feeds trying to drag up as much info about old/obsolete/forgotten furry fandom topics as possible so I can document them somewhere.

WikiFur could use some good quality contributions and TLC as of late; and archival of history is pretty important, especially niche fandom history that probably won't get recorded anywhere else.

This website's cool, but I wish there was a way to find the geeks and gamers in the crowd.

Ok so I was familiar with “the dragon book” - the canonical textbook explaining compilers with a dragon on the cover - but apparently I somehow completely missed the existence of “the dinosaur book” for operating systems??

Peeked at my Steam profile and apparently my most played game is Cities: Skylines, at 1,507 hours.

That's nearly 63 days. Over two months. What the heck, me.

public transport opinion 

Okay self-driving cars seem like a really good idea, but I don't think they're ready to use on the open roads yet. I'd suggest keeping them on a fixed route where no other vehicles can go to minimize risk of collision.
We should probably have fixed places where people can get on and off. The cars come in, open their doors, let people enter and exit, and then continue on their journey.
Speaking of which, we should probably also make them larger to increase efficiency and again, to minimize risk of accidents.
We could even couple several of them together into one combined vehicle.
And since they're only going on a fixed route anyway, it makes more sense to use steel wheels on steel rails instead of rubber on asphalt.
I know it's an outlandish concept, but I'm convinced it might work really well if we ever get to try it out on a large scale

Also it's super late so I'm gonna have to finish this some other time.

Luckily, I am entirely the kind of person to be bored enough to try and fix it!

…In XboxAhoy's art style, because originality is hard.

The lack of consistency in iTunes' film thumbnails (or, more likely, the thumbnails provided to iTunes) is utterly infuriating.
