Video screenshot from Reddit. Building is now a shell with flames visible in every window.

The roof has collapsed embers rise into the night sky.

The fire at Glasgow central station is utterly devastating. Shops, homes and our transport link to England are being wiped out.
I am amazed by the limited news coverage.

THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!

Graphic of me and my bio alongside my pitch for stretch goal content "The Resonant Web"

So there's a week left on the Blades '68 Backerkit campaign and I'm a stretch goal!

I love the world of Blades and I am so excited to be working with people I have been a fan of since I got into making TTRPG's.

Lemme write about weird ghost computing stuff!

I bet the wasps taped over em

a couple of WASPs immediately started complaining about how "we" now have to pay for this boat's disposal, and not "them"

if you look carefully, there's two askew masts there in the distance, in addition to the newly slain guy in the foreground

the side/keel of the newly beached boat

beached boat interior

a third boat has run aground over on ol' Sunset Beach

also, whatever percentage of ppl who get heavy enough botox that they can't move their face, are they a necessary target of uh discourse here?? what the hell, they clearly have other problems

botox angle is also silly because you really have to get a shit ton of botox (& it wears off in months) all over your face to fully disrupt facial expressions. if you look less disgusted than you could potentially look, due to a reduced range of facial expression, is that your only conduit of comms?

YAY

Radio lab: between 1890 and 1980, before computers, what were doctors in hospitals writing on their clipboards? They were drawing pictures of their imaginary pony. And for almost 100 years 92% of doctors named their pony “Apricot”. The reason why? It’s kind of a long story,

I had a tabletop character a little while ago who had a tattoo of this map, and the more I think of that the more I kind of want it as well. (although I'd have to pick a river I had more personal experience with, but, you know. the idea.)

I even miss having to manually place lights to simulate bounce and reflection! there was so much expressiveness there.

A dramatically lit low-poly subway level that you would never suspect was built from a single extremely clever texture sheet

Reminiscing now about my first job as a game developer, when lighting was so expensive we couldn't even pre-bake it.

We made a single texture sheet with a lit side on top, a shadow side on the bottom, and a gradient in between, and placed all our shadows by hand with geometry cuts and UV mapping

A color portrait of Hollywood actor Donald Sutherland, circa mid-1990s. Lou thinks Sutherland’s 90s work is crapola. The early stuff is where it’s at. Sure, M*A*S*H gives you some idea of Sutherland’s potential. But it’s Klute and even more so, Don’t Look Now, that still chills Lou when he thinks about it. Dianne can’t even watch it. She refuses. So Lou watches it by himself, late at night on VHS, again and again.
