@poorusher i liked to think that some caring person labored over that with brushes and stamp tool, as i try not to post AI, but now that you mention it …

Every now and then, there is a glimmer of the Intnernet we were all promised, and still yearn for.

Nature treasures

Apparently this comic made a lot of bloodless quants very angry

I used to play bass etc

@Mr_Encyclopedia good.

AMTTLOP who just googled 'Bloodless Quant'

She seems nice.

I don't like the beach either. Anakin was completely right about sand and I'm tired of people neglecting to see that past the bad writing and stilted line delivery.

@urlnotfound A+

love her stuff. a shining star of my instagram feed

@nikkuneko I feel the same way about her work!

I continue to die on the very petty hill that Sauron isn’t obsessed with the palantíri, and Saruman isn’t a deity. Even if you argue Maiar count, Gandalf is the firewielder in that grouping.

The oligarchs will charge subscription fees for air if they can.

I used to play this! Surprisingly often!

And yeah there is a lot of shouting and screaming involved. Not kidding.

I saw one rulebook that said players should quietly hold up a number of fingers representing how many cards they wish to trade, and like... no. If you are not screaming yourself hoarse, you are not playing Pit. ;)

I see Something 100 - nicely done!

woot! nothing like getting a little race dirt on the bike

20th anniversary of The Butte 100. @octaneTom. My third attempt and second finish.

This is new to me this year, @wjcstp, a Salsa Spearfish from your great state of Minnesota.

Wow! Nicely done!

Butte butt I bet

@hertz majorly

@samh damn that’s some serious elevation! Well done sir

Nearly drowned right there on family vacation ca age of 9.

Otherwise great vacation.

@mcmjolnir ahh glad the undertoad didn't get ya

@drurystephanie there was sooo much talk about the undertoad before it happened and it was the undertoad.

I was there in the summer of 1990 with my girlfriend, much to my wife's chagrin.

@mcmjolnir I can only imagine. I almost succumbed to it in Virginia Beach as a kid and am still not over it. The undertoad (not the rhythm) is gonna get youuuu...tonight!

I approve of this view

Cool, is there a recording?

Virtue keeps knocking them off the counter

@bug138 there will be, but I don't know how public it will be. It'll likely show up on quaker.ca. He and Christine are very active in Winnipeg meeting.

Coincidentally just in the last week or so I have picked up Reconstruction Site again, as I have so many times in the last two decades. Such a wonderful album.

@BennyTheIcepick it's a good one.

John and Christine have a couple of albums as PWYC on Bandcamp under the name Vivat Virtute too

brb filing an issue about the lack of bold and italic

@ardgedee you'd be shocked by what LibreOffice just did with it, then: created bold and italic .notdefs on demand

oh... she's majestic 🧡

Have visited in person.

@bezt ++

love this. my folks had many, many Pogo books and comic compilations.

<3

perfect sound effects

Excellent.

I regularly ask myself this very question.

these are great! i may have to grab one soon.

@nikkuneko aww yay! and it supports a good cause!

@samh I wish more people would

@spingo much appreciated!

if you don't have any luck replicating it, you can get it here from a company called Badia or from an importer called Top Iceland

(we also love the stuff)

We might still have some tomato powder in the cupboard, i should try mixing some up

Somewhere, a VW copywriter in a nursing home feels a disturbance in the Force.

@williwaw ❤️❤️❤️ Good news! We made sure to grab several packets to take home with us, too.

@wjcstp Look forward to discovering whether you found a solid dupe!

@thelonius If that’s what it’d take to get this stateside, I applaud that resurrection from retirement.

I have been to iceland twice, going again in two weeks ; never seen this!
Is it something outside of Reykjavik?

Also looks awesome

In the UK there is a similar mysterious substance called "Chippy Spice"

@waldopepper Mmmm! Spooky!

@Robotron_smith These particular packets were from the concession stand on the ferry to Vestmanneyjar. Dunno about elsewhere, but it was the first we’d noticed them. Where you headin’ on this trip?

Is it.. ketchup dust?

@abrahms kinda!

We’re headed to -
Reykjavic
Grundarfjörður
Ísafjörður
Akureyri

Pretty excited, because I’ve only been there in the winter months before, and couldn’t make it to any of those other destinations!

@Robotron_smith ❤️❤️❤️

If you find yourself in Reykjavík with time to burn and you’re driving, Arbæjarlaug is a local pool that in our opinion handily rivals all the fancy hot springs. Plus it’s full of locals (local pool is a common very regular community spot in Iceland). Multiple hottubs, water slide, cold plunge, steam bath, indoor/outdoor pool… plus it’s much much less expensive than the spas.

But whatever your plans, I’m sure you’ll have a blast. A grand country full of extraordinary landscapes.

@wombatman70
I absolutely love it there.
And thanks for the tip on the local pool! I will be there with a car, so I’ll check it out.

Cool shirt, great story

He has been MeToo'd. He has assaulted several women I know. They came to tell me because I used to have a podcast with him but they have each told me they don't want to come forward because of the backlash of his fans. And they were right. One woman, Tierney Tough, finally did tell part of her story recently and the backlash was intense.

@drurystephanie oof, i did not know about this. thank you for letting me know and sorry for boosting unaware. i'll go familiarize myself with the story

(for others, it looks like tierney tough told her story here: https://substack.com/@tierney...)

i'll leave this thread open so others can see stephanie's comment. it's important for people to know.

seeing fans of bazan dismiss it outright because "she seems off" is really disheartening and disingenuous. i don't want to continue in that trend of trying to dismiss someone trying to tell their story.

again, really sorry to learn about all of this. oof.

@drurystephanie
That makes me immeasurably sad and angry. Thank you for being someone they felt they could trust with their stories.

@BennyTheIcepick @nikkuneko Thank you so much for believing and caring. I was bracing myself for more backlash and am so relieved that these women are taken seriously. I'll link to two public FB posts I made and many of Bazan's buddies (who had been my buddies) swooped into the comments and my DMs to cast doubt on the accounts. It's especially devastating because Bazan's brand is "sincere ally" and I bought it hook line and sinker for many years, and love(d) his music so much.

Here are the links to the posts I made where I highlighted Tierney's story. I work with sexual assault victims and they are so often discredited and called crazy so to see this playing out amongst friends has been a mindfuck. Thank you both again for hearing and for your empathy, truly.

@drurystephanie thank you again, and thank you for the additional info. i know even just carrying these stories for other people can be tough, let alone navigating the backlash, so you're a hero.

i was in the midst of typing an additional reply to you because i was worried i'd come across too passive in my initial response; i should have explicitly said that my "thank you" also meant "i trust you". i'm glad you did come back to the thread.

i'm sad that it took me years and years of learning from people who went through stuff like this to see how both "she seems crazy" and "well i've known him all my life" are weaponized against people just trying to speak out. i've seen it happen time again, with artists i follow as well as people i've known in real life, and i'm honestly sick of it happening without being interrogated. especially sad to see it unchecked here.

i guess i just gotta "grieve" this revelation, be done with supporting his music, and try to warn friends about this. i want to believe that he'll address it (or be forced to reckon with it) someday, but i worry he never will.

@nikkuneko Can't tell you how much I appreciate everything you've written here, I'm feeling glimmers of hope and healing after many disappointments while being an advocate. It's difficult when it's the last person you want to believe would do something like this. We're drawn to artists for their sensitivity and authenticity and so it's a bonus blow when we realize they abused their powers. It checks all the stages of grief for sure. Thanks again for your kindness.

Congrats, well done!!

@m3moellering thanks! I sat on this for years (since 2018 or so), overthinking far too many details. How these old printers stored their fonts was utterly bonkers: 8 pins of one pass stored in one place, then 8 pins of the second stored somewhere completely else. There's a one bit field that tells you where to put the additional two pins, depending on whether the character has a descender or not. At least one character has this coded wrongly: semicolon sits on the baseline, not below it. But that's for someone else to fix
