Those Wolf Pups Are No More Dire Wolves Than GloFish Are Bioluminescent Jellyfish. This Whole Thing Is

Something to help you all

Ok, here me out. I think there is some new malware risk, and that Steam may have some security issues, or even suffering an attack. See, I had decided to do some scans, and seen some worring signs. The files where, to my surprise, among the proton files I downloded from Steam. As in, downloded officially.

To be sure it was not a false positive, I looked through VirusTotal to be sure.

And then I found this. The file was scanned by numerous security vendors, and 22 out of the 73 vendors discovered a trojan. And among those vendors, where included Avast, Avira, ClamAV, Google, McAfee and Microsoft. This was bad, so I deleted it, and deleted the proton programs(and many other things from Steam, JUST TO BE SURE).

And I am not the only one who had seen this. I found two recent cases of people talking about similar cases on both GitHub, and on the the Steam Community.

Now, I dont want to accuse Steam and Valve of anything. They are likely victims of this.

But I post this, to spread some awarness, so Valve can fix this issue, if there is any, and not just a bunch of false positives.

October 18. My attempt at drawing a bat.

Today I tried attempt to draw a bat. The result was...not the best. I guess it is good for a beginner, but the arm fingers, and the nose and ears are parts I am not happy. On a lesser level, I am also not happy about the feet. But on the other hand....I am happy i drew something today.

So. There is some chaos and discussion on what the democratic party in the USA should do. Keep Biden, or replace him with someone else(most likely Kamala Harris).

This is actually complicated, for several reasons. Sure, Kamala is younger, and in a better mental and physical shape and according to some polls she does better against Trump. But on the other hand, according to most polls, she does worse then Biden, the GOP has started their racist and sexist attacks against her, she lack the traditional incumbent advantage(incumbents tend to do better then they are polled to do), and a large part of the centrists and the goldfish swing voters have forgotten how bad things were under Trump.

But whatever the Democratic Party choses to do....please. Just fucking vote blue. If anybody from the USA sees this, vote blue, and save your country from fascism. Just...do this.

Happy New Year everybody!

Six judges invented the US monarchy. Just made the shit up.

Interesting how the public has no access to the Supreme Court. You can't see any case. Yet billionaires can bribe the justices for decades.

Follow the money to Republican oligarchs.

This is more complicated. According to many forms(such as Catholicism), magic does not exist, and believing in sorcery/magic and in witches is heresy, for only God has the ability to change the rules of reality or mess with them.

This is also not limited to Catholicism. The Eastern Roman Empire and its Orthodox Church classified belief in witchcraft as a form of superstition, and eventually even classified belief in witchcraft as a heresy. Not practicing it, actually believing it was a thing in the first place.

It would be more accurate to say that the belief that „using magic is blasphemous” is a more protestant belief, where the official doctrine in other parts was „witchcraft does not exist”.

I think we need to appreciate this part of Brennan Lee Mulligan's WIRED interview a lot more:

"The evangelical right in this country needs to manufacture outrage to hold onto its voting block. [The satanic panic about DnD] was arbitrary, as the targets of their outrage always are. Fight the power."

You really honestly don't have to comment on posts about sex to say you don't like sex or that the post isnt relevant to your orientation, or comment on posts about food to say you're vegan or allergic, or posts about "what are your favorite games?" to say you don't play games. It is not necessary that you remind every random blogger every time their post is not relevant to everyone on earth at once, I can assure you everybody knows that and is not learning anything new from your net zero addition

Yeah, I hope that good things start to happen too.

good things will happen 🧿

things that are meant to be will fall into place 🧿

Christmas Drawing.

Decided to start practicing again, and to make one drawing for each of the 12 days of Christmas. Anyway, here is a drawing of a Christmas tree. Not the best, but I hope I will improve.

October 22. Another attempt at a vampire bat.

Today I work a little bit more, and I entered into a hurry when I started drawing the vampire bat.

Not the best. There is stil a lot of room for me to improve.
