underdiscussed instance of touchscreens/smart tech in places where it shouldn’t be: cardio machines. yeah great job you put a touchscreen on an item where people are going to sweat all over it and it’s going to glitch because it can’t handle contact with moisture

#text #I DONT WANT A TOUCHSCREEN ON A TREADMILL #I WANT BUTTON THAT MAKE THE MILL GO FASTER OR SLOWER OR UP OR DOWN #THAS IT! #you can have a screen that plays tv or hooks up to your device or whatever #but that screen SHOULD NOT be a touchscreen #its just bad engineering

I think that the real essence of a 'trans' story isn't actually about gender at all, so much as it's about going through a transition from one state where you're miserable and unhappy and wish for death or feel like you're already dead to another radically different state where...you're content. You're just content. You had something chronically wrong with you, like a painful screeching that just becomes the background noise of your existence and then...it's gone. You are, in some ineffable cosmic sense, where you belong.

a post-doc was doing a guest seminar at my institute and at the beginning of his presentation he was explaining why he chose birds for his evolutionary analysis - so he said "well first of all, because birds are the best and most interesting animals and it's fun to study them" and a few professors in the room gave him a very serious nod

don't know what I was dreaming abt last night but I woke up with thee phrase "The Sicilian iPad" clearly in my head. thee emphasis on these words was such that it implied this was an important and dramatic object like a coveted or influential art piece

why do you hate swifties so much

because they aligned themselves with the treacherous count dooku

Here's a painting I made for the ImagineFX art challenge "Mystical Meets Machines".

The theme was too intriguing to pass by - especially after I got the idea of some unicorns grazing by the remnants of an ancient, mechanical dragon. Someone in the past were keen on acquiring the great powers of a dragon for themselves, leading to a bitter end. Now it has rested peacefully for centuries, becoming part of the landscape.

Lots of fun painting this one, especially all that moss!

Photoshop, April 2024. And as always, no AI used.

Ok genuine question what is wrong with me that this transformation simply has not happened to me at 30

one of the funniest things about becoming an adult is realizing that adults were not being fun-killers when they looked at your favorite snack and went "eugh, too much sugar for me." Your body genuinely just stops being able to process sugary shit as well and it starts tasting super gross and making you feel like you have to puke after a couple of bites. it does kind of suck but the tradeoff is you get more sensitive to complex tastes so all the fancy desserts that never really made any sense to you suddenly start becoming really appealing.
