It's so refreshing to see:

• A comic book movie that actually remembers it's a comic book movie

• A story about Harley Quinn that remembers she's a literal doctor of psychology and doesn't just constantly objectify her

• A near-total absence of the fucking Joker

• A movie with a complicated plotline that's both purposefully disordered AND cohesive

• A comic book movie which isn't just a mess of intertextual references and fanservice

yeah I use Arch btw

A font for most languages.

"The Noto name comes from the mission, “NO TOfu”—eliminating the tofu-like boxes (𛲢𛲡𛲠) that appear when no font is available for a user’s text. Noto offers fonts for 146 scripts (writing systems) and over 800 languages, and is opening the door to reading and writing for minority language speakers."

@nolan the mighty Goog has heard your prayers: https://www.xda-developers.com/google-prepares-decouple-new-emojis-android-system-updates/

"In early 2019, Ian Davis lost 4 of his digits on his left hand to a work accident. His insurance did not cover his prosthetic." So he made his own mechanical solution.

"The prosthetic Ian built has literally zero electricity need, it works with a set of elastic strings, rods, chains, nails a forearm rest, and whatnot."

We're living a #cyberpunk dystopia but, damn, engineers are amazing.

Things which have ruined the internet:

Did I miss anything?

At the very least, keep in mind that life is NOT a zero sum game. You can succeed without requiring someone else to fail. You can be right without requiring someone else to be wrong. You can be more without requiring someone else to be less.

Remember that you can lift yourself up without pushing others down.

the news channels keep interviewing people in airports traveling for thanksgiving and they're all like "I'm willing to take the risk. i choose not to live in fear"

and godammit i hate people so much

it's not just your risk. you're risking OTHER PEOPLE'S LIVES you selfish fucks
