  • Actually, this is me sharpening my genre whetstone. I'm writing a book set in a magic school, main character is taking a pegasus-riding class, and its becoming clear that in the climax of the book I'm going to have to describe some very complex aerial horsemanship when I barely understand how a horse thinks.

  • That's clearly Yellowfang from the Warrior Cats series

  • Fast-refresh ePaper. I just want a laptop I can use outside, man!

  • Well, now you know!

  • Happy cake day!

  • Yep, you wooshed the joke. Hint: ¾=75%

  • Its more obvious on Mastodon since Mastodon federates with everybody. Imagine, while being on Twitter and without leaving the Twitter app, being able to post and comment on Reddit, watch YouTube videos and leave comments, and also interact with people on Instagram and Facebook. Some blogs also federate too via WordPress. I know you dont have to imagine that since you're here, but when I first started out it blew my mind.

    Now, the way I phrase it to people I'm pitching the platforms to is "You get to choose whether you want to be in the hands of either a Corp that wants to turn you into profits for their shareholders, or you can put your data in the hands of some autistic dork who is really, really passionate about either server architecture or infosec. There's pros and cons there. Bluesky and Twitter fundamentally are not on your side, they want money from somewhere, but they can afford to pay people to both keep their servers running efficiently and defend against bad actors. The admins of Lemmy and Mastodon are fundamentally on our side, but the quality you're going to see is on par with a hobby project."

  • It is. If you say it as a teacher, youre going to hear complaints about it from the parents just as fast as if you had used the f-word.

  • Found the weeb

  • The GBA game for Avatar: the Last Airbender. Tried to revisit it as an adult, couldn't find any reviews for it online. Apparently it was so obviously shovelware thay nobody gave it the time of day.

  • When I was in boy scouts, my dad at one point made a comment to me that our Senior Patrol Leader was "just like me, but older"

    What he meant was that our SPL was an immature little shit and I shouldn’t rely on him. What i heard was "Your personal role model is just like you, and you can be as awesome as him if you put the work in."

  • This feels like it was written one-handed.

    About the data, a huuuge chunk of men arent happy in their own skin being themselves. This leads to constant dating and an increased likelihood to cheat. Its more common for women to he happy with themselves, which leads to less desperation in dating and less cheating.

  • Ten bucks says the first group hasn't had a single character die in the whole campaign, and the second group is all on their second characters due to the Sybian Incident

  • I dont remember learning about moles in math. Chemistry, yes, but I don't think moles care much about topology.

    However, if we assume an ideal mole in empty space with no air resistance, we would see how they have this property: their hair follicles would, in the absence of outside interference, stand straight up. So, its technically more accurate to say that every direction of petting a mole is equally wrong.

  • No really, this is a real quality mole fur has

  • That's clearly a Warror Cats cover featuring a Sky Clan cat
