One of the biggest surprises from yesterday’s #NintendoDirect was the upcoming new featured called #VirtualGameCard. For an explanation, read the brief article. I will note that this is way late but also right on time for the #Switch2 direct next week. #videogames arstechnica.com/gaming/20…

Ok. I’m pretty sure that for putting sarcastic sticky notes on a #Tesla to be considered a “Hate Crime”, the Tesla itself would need to be recognized as a “protected class”. I may have the terminology wrong, but I think I’m generally correct. #uspol #WashingtonDC #police boingboing.net/2025/03/2…

Whether you know all about #ElonMusk’s background or not, you must watch this video from #DemocracyNow for depth and context. This is critical to understanding the very real existential danger #America & #Democracy are in RIGHT FUCKING NOW. #uspol #apartheid www.youtube.com/watch

When the #Tesla #Cybertruck is dead and gone it will have achieved an “honor” I don’t believe has ever been been bestowed upon another vehicle; The first to be tanked by the sheer incompetence of its execution and how much people hate the CEO.

I have to say that this is one of the most impressive demonstrations of a “flying car”, for lack of a better term, I have seen. It is smooth, fast, agile, and loud. I wonder if those asymmetrical props would have the same thrust. #tech #aircraft #JetsonONE www.youtube.com/watch

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Traffic - John Barleycorn Must Die (1970 Deluxe Edition). Ironically, Dave Mason had left Traffic again and didn’t play on this critically acclaimed record. This is always my go-to Traffic disc, though. #rock #jazz #blues youtube.com/playlist

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Dave Mason - A Shade of Blues (2025). A founding member of the legendary Traffic, Dave rolls out a new set of killer #blues tracks with some awesome surprises. After this I’m going to have to put on John Barleycorn Must Die. #music #rock youtube.com/playlist

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: The Smithereens - 2011 (2025 rerelease). The bands first album of new material since 1999 was well received by critics and fans. Then Pat died in 2017, but they continue to rock on. A new album is coming soon, too. RIP Pat! #music #powerpop youtube.com/playlist

Now that Mastodon is out of the crossposting loop, let’s see if this works. If so, then I’ll know that a proxy issue was at the core of my crossposting issues and can finally work to resolve it! Back to posting soon, I hope 😁 #troubleshooting

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Tower of Power - 50 Years of Funk & Soul: Live at the Fox Theater (2018). This show is T-I-G-H-T!! I cannot name all the amazing performers, so be sure to look them up on Wikipedia. #music #funk #soul www.youtube.com/watch
