Woke up to a bunch of banging and thumping around this morning and I finally get outside to discover that my roof is currently home to a group of ducks.

@mmasnick Mandatory beheadings for sushi terrorists, people who talk during the movies, and anyone who uses the word "irregardless"!

@megansmolenyak Oh, totally. This is just a pet peeve of mine. If the "enhancements" actually lose or obfuscate data from the source, then the original should be used instead, especially when using the images to illustrate historical points. I.e. if enough pictures are shown of dinosaurs with scales, then dinosaurs with feathers look ridiculous and unbelievable.

@megansmolenyak So they did... It's also worth asking why the colorizers thought so many folks in the 19th century wore purple...

@megansmolenyak Why does he look like he has the face of a middle-aged woman? This looks like a bad AI image, not a historical picture.

@Nick_Craver Sounds like somebody had a mystery bug and just started throwing everything the internet mentioned at it.

@matthewmuses @jeffjarvis To be fair, the audiences for the games can be just as toxic. The key, in either case, is apparently to surround oneself with loving supportive peers instead of hanging one's ego out to be beaten by the whims of internet strangers.

Rep. Burgess Owens is set to lead a congressional hearing on the Biden administration's "unlawful" student loan forgiveness program.

Owens, who has filed for bankruptcy protection multiple times, said "debt cannot be canceled" #utpol

@jeremydebose @ThinkingSapien I really hope those people don't drive. They would never hear a siren or horn.

@bruce Maybe report them first?

The Fediverse shouldn't exclude servers for having moderators that aren't omniscient.

Blocking servers and defederation should be saved for when it's proved that the moderators of a server *choose to allow* bad content, not when they just don't act quick enough to prevent users from seeing it.

5. After sending these undercover officers to the drag show, the DeSantis administration ignored their report and FILED A COMPLAINT WITH A FRAUDULENT DESCRIPTION OF THE SHOW to try to shut the venue down.

Seem like a pretty big deal.

@gpowerf If you really want a break from modern 3D games, allow me to recommend Roadwarden. It's a minimalist RPG with a great story, choices that matter, and it's completable in about 10-15 hours.

@briansniffen @jeffjarvis "trained to be hurt by the aspects of unmediated life"?

I don't know what world you live in, but in the world I live in, you don't have to be "trained" to be hurt by unmediated life. "Unmediated life" is extremely hurtful by default. "Life is hard" is a saying for a reason.

Some folks find refuge in booze. Others deal with the pain by hurting others. These kids find refuge in online communities. That sounds extremely healthy to me.

Anecdotally I've heard people say they're surprised by how many job applications never get *any* response, not even a rejection.

Seems this is part of why: companies are posting fake job openings to mislead investors, employees, and competitors.

@arossp If I were still on Twitter, I'd ask Jonah if he would let his kids watch Ms. Doubtfire or not.
