This is the comment I was trying to share...

JK Rowling isn't being harassed she is being rightfully condemned for spreading hate and bigotry targeting the trans community

I wonder if subscriptions are transferrable upon death? Probably not.

I'm in Canada but if we have something similar, I would also decline it. I wouldn't be alive long enough for its full duration of 40 years, so I may as well not pre-emptively pay taxes on something I couldn't fully redeem.

Whoah in the United States if you win a game subscription prize, it's considered taxable income and you have to pay taxes. ๐Ÿ˜ฒ

"Emerging evidence seems to show that a four-day work week is win-win for employers and employees alike:

Productivity goes up, and so does employee well-being. A 2022 pilot program mega-study tracked 33 companies with reduced working hours and found that overall, employees were more satisfied with their work-life balance, experienced less burnout, and company revenues actually increased." Men also greatly increased their contribution to parenting.

So I asked Blue Willow to make me a :

Smurf versus Godzilla, city battle, hollywood monster movie

And what I got back was not disappointing. ๐Ÿ˜‹ It's a 3-way hybrid of Kong, Smurf and Godzilla, all blue and furry but with tail and tallons along the spine, with the face and mouth of Kong.

My 5+ years evolution from Scawed No Pewpew , to (Enemy) Heroes Always Die aggressiveness represented as my history with gaming computers so far. ๐Ÿ‘ผ ๐Ÿ˜ˆ

It's impossible to please folks as in competitive mode if a team loses:

-Mercy defeats back-dive-flankers attacking her because nobody looks behind? MERSY Y U NO HEAL?

-Mercy takes out a sniper that everybody is ignoring and getting killed by. MERCY Y NO HLZ

-Mercy asks for sniper help. MERCY PLAY ANA KILL HER UR SELF

-Team kill happens while Mercy is desperately trying to chase after everyone who is off 1v1ing far in the weeds. MERSY U SUK.

Sigh. But I love Mercy. :D โค๏ธ ๐Ÿ‘ผ

A republican governor in Florida called people mutants and demons from another planet today.

While I would so love to own both these, and I will claim the demon part muwahaha, we canโ€™t be mutants from another planet because a mutant is mutated life from the same planet.

For me to be mutant AND from another planet, the governor would have to believe that alien life exists. His religion wonโ€™t allow him to. But hey, welcome to and wondering about the equation. :D

Tried to do MIDI-softsynth with my M1 Pro last night. Forgot that there isnโ€™t a headphone jack on โ€œmodernโ€ devices. So how to send a USB digital piano MIDI signal to the iPad, and hear the iOS appโ€™s softsynth? Donโ€™t bother using AirPods, the delay is so high from key press to when the tone is heard.

So Iโ€™ve had to join Dongle Club(TM) and ordered a USB-C hub that has a USB A port and a headphone jack. Sigh. This used to be so easy on older iPads. So much for techno โ€œprogressโ€.

Lights' new chill-beats remixed version of her PEP album called "dEd" is very nice! Exactly the Sunday vibe I was looking for. <3

Taking children from their parents is one of the qualifying elements of a genocide.

IE: Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.
