A screenshot of the zombo.com domain as of yesterday, looking painfully vibe-coded; the "Zombo.com" text is now in a font that looks nigh-identical to Verdana and has an awful washed-out rainbow gradient, the loading circle animation has been replaced with a pinwheel, and apparently the voice has been replaced with some awful TTS equivalent. There is now a description underneath the page which is some of the most repulsive "quirky" corpo-speak an LLM could possibly muster, which I refuse to transcribe.

Apparently the zombocom domain expired yesterday and was presumably bought out by some other jackass who launched this vibe-coded IMPOSTOR

Go Play NW Membership Drive 2026. February 13th through March 20th. $6,800 raised of $12,000 (USD) goal. 56% of goal. 45 memberships. 6 days left. Current goals: Base funding for GPNW Seattle Summer at $12,000! Help us make our in-person event happen!

Real talk: there is a very real likelihood that Go Play NW can't happen this year

Less than a week left in our Membership Drive, aka early ticket sales and raising money to hold the event, and we're just over halfway to making our *base* goal. If we can't hit that goal, we can't pay for the venue

This cover is relevant today.

Israel asked Lebanese citizens to evacuate Beirut, some set up tents on the Ramlet al-Baida beach.

Then, Israel bombed the people seeking refuge on the beach, killing 8 people. The same beach that is in the photograph below.

Yet there's no front page story this time.

No joke, I think this might be one of the most important roles for tech-savvy Millennials/Gen Xers.

We caught a glimpse of an amazing world, one that was almost entirely free of corporate or political influence because the suits hadn’t caught on yet. We could talk with ANYONE in an age of landlines

@adamconover.net saying what I've been saying for a year now. You can support us AND be insulted that our presense in society is being touted as an issue when we're on the verge of WWIII and playing the role of the fucking Nazis!

Heeeeeeeeyyyy, guess who wants to regulate This Fucking Guy™️ into oblivion, maybe tell your friends in California’s 72nd district to get involved in my race

Good night, everyone

If you care about artists online, wether NSFW or not, you MUST write a comment. And it's simple to just write a comment there. Please go save your artists, and yourself if you are one.

i was gonna say, "well, obviously, dark city inspired the matrix" but holy shit they were SO CLOSE to eachother??????

I feel this strongly: I don't care. I am DISGUSTED that 175 little girls are dead and that thousands are dead across the region and that 1 million people are displaced in Lebanon alone. THIS IS EVIL.

You may have heard by now that we did have a break-in at the tea house this morning. There are three major inconveniences we're dealing with because of this:

If/when a deMAGAfication of US ever occurs it must begin with the Roberts Court without which none of this would be possible

Important thread.

There was a German in valet parking. A Belgian and a Swiss at odds over vol-au-vents in the kitchen. A small contingent of African spies (Senegal, Cote d'Ivoire, Gabon) on the janitorial staff, relatively careless about Francophone eavesdroppers. She spotted a very young and nervous Turkmen agent shoving a dead-drop spike into the eye of a gaudy reindeer statue at Christmastime, and duly stole it, learning his real name (Kasymguly) and workname (Kevin) in the process. The waitstaff had a Russian agent named Vladimir and a Ukrainian agent named Volodymyr and they'd nearly killed each other in the west parking lot one night. The Polish agent Wtodzimierz, who was considerably older and world-weary, smoked a cigarette, watched them brawl, and predicted they'd both be fired for coming to work with visible bruises. He was right, which was a pity; Volodymyr had been very handsome indeed. They were replaced, in due time, by Dmitri and Dmytro, at which point she began to wonder if Kyiv and Moscow were being deliberate about all this for their own inscrutable reasons.

sorry to poast too much about this but its my first published fiction since high school and i had fun imagining the many many spies at mar a lago

This is the last. fucking. straw. The shambling corpse of the so-called NYT is finally dead and buried.

And fucking Blood Meridian of all things! The hubris!! These idiots got in the ring with Muhammad Ali like they had any chance at all. Shame. SHAME.

If you’re at #eccc please don’t forget to come to the Basement! A lot of people seem to think there’s only Funko pops and long box comics and blind boxes, but they moved a bunch of indie artists down here too! Don’t miss out!!

Windows 14 rumored to have a free trial with no limit on playtime all the way up to level 70, including the award winning expansions "Heavensward" and "Stormblood," sources say.

When I first saw this lizard, I thought it was a western fence lizard, but upon further inspection, I realized it must be a southern sagebrush lizard. The scale size and pattern were slightly different. Now that I’ve identified the lizard, can you #FindThatLizard?

The Republicans seem to be prepping an argument that any domestic terror attacks in the aftermath of their Iran attacks will be the fault of Democrats for shutting down DHS funding, so I'd like to remind everyone of this appointment:
