I adored Apocalypse Hotel and am delighted to see that it won, but CITY the Animation and others are still on my to-watch list.
I don’t know if this applies to anyone else here, but I felt genuinely unqualified to vote having not seen every one of the series nominated. In fact, I’m not sure if there was any category from which I’d watched all the nominated entries.
For more participation, I’d ask for perhaps fewer nominees or more time between the announcements and closed voting.
Paywalled.

Here’s the news story about it: https://www.wtsp.com/article/news/local/pascocounty/man-kills-eats-pet-peacock-pasco-county/67-d216ccbf-d32a-462c-be3d-65c41907095e
There’s nothing wrong with eating peafowl. People have been eating them for centuries and still do.
While some species of peafowl are endangered, the species that people keep as pets are not.
This guy was reportedly arrested for his slaughtering methods. I’m no butcher, but I believe the commonly accepted method of slaughter is to swiftly break the bird’s neck to ensure the death is quick. According to the news article, he cut the bird’s necks and let them bleed out which counts as animal cruelty. A person would theoretically get arrested for doing this to their pet/feeder chickens as well.
Also a single-use solution:
See? One for everybody!
You can’t solve civil rights injustice with drywall and doors. The fundamental issue is that the category “women” includes transgender women and “men” includes transgender men. Those are the bathrooms they belong in.
Pivoting the issue to “let’s build single-use bathrooms” is arguing that segregation is fine if we all get to poop alone.
Matrix or Zulip.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
Amtrak’s Coast Starlight line on the west coast has wifi, but it’s unusably glitchy. The trips I’ve taken haven’t been crowded, so I doubt it was an overuse issue. My guess is either the upstream connection is junk or the trains aren’t kitted out with hardware capable of meaningful QoS (either from misconfiguration or inability).
Going out on a limb here to say that’s it’s a really bad idea to set fire to a building where people are locked in and unable to leave.
Tweets and skeets are a megaphone based on spur-of-the-moment thoughts.
Large scale media campaigns have time and manpower to strategize angles, uptake and decide next steps.
The more we learn about bureaucrats with paper crowns, the more they’re revealed as deeply insecure children who, like the rest of us, are only pretending to know how to be grownups and really just doing random shit most of the time.
I don’t think any more thought went into this than that cat with a newspaper deciding to buy a boat.
The left wants to squeeze the rich until money comes out. Centrist republicans don’t.
That’s why those controlling the Democratic party will not save us. The left needs to take it from them.
Especially if you’re using those suspender strap clips that you need to lift up the mattress for to clip them on. I feel ya.
Here’s what that data looked like:

It depends on your level of expertise. It’s open source software that you download and run on hardware that you lease or own. So you need to know how to do that in order to use it. As those things go, it really isn’t difficult.
No, it’s not as easy as signing up for an account on some website. That’s the difference between third-party services (owned, operated and controlled by some random company your decide to trust) and software that YOU run, on hardware YOU control, with access that YOU decide upon, and no one who will gate it or take it away.
It’s a trade-off. Everyone must consider their wants vs needs and choose what’s most important to them.
What disappoints me is how quickly people are willing to throw up their hands and say IT’S TOO HARD without ever even trying.
