Oh jeeze, that’s been around as a plugin in inkscape since at least 2011, I remember vectorizing an episode poster from Adventure Time using it. But I’d believe it wasn’t quite as good as whatever photoshop had. I used the “never learn photoshop” trick to be happy with what I’ve got, but then I only edit images for fun.

Oh dank, I had no clue there was a video. Good callout, the new album was great

Y’know you jest, but when I was very young I didn’t understand why all the other kids I could just call by their first name, but the girl across the street I had to call “Miss Shell”

I have a take on this that I think no one will have fun with:

In my opinion there is no moral way to keep a cat as a pet.

Allowing cats to roam as they desire results in the aforementioned ecological damage. The opposite - keeping cats locked in a few thousand feet at best for twenty-odd years of life - is cruel.

As someone who was raised in the woods with outdoor cats and couldn’t imagine keeping them inside - even though we lost two as I grew up - it’s a circle I just can’t square. So I figure that if and when I get cats, I’ll dodge the question and adopt some older cats who were already raised inside and couldn’t be trusted to go outside safely anyway.

For sure. It’s the classic:

Reading this now, and it strikes me as all the things I should have been taught about the Nazis beyond just the enormity of their cruelty:

Most important of all, how often just a little pushback stopped them stupid.

A student strike in German-occupied Belgium was enough pushback to stop the enforcement of the extradition of Jewish people there.

Italy, an ally at the beginning, would just say they would extradite their Jewish population, then not actually do it, in a loop, leaving the Germans frustrated simply by being lied to to their face and incapable of making progress.

You’re left with a picture of a bunch of bureaucrats following orders who are incapable of comprehending disobedience nor knowing how to handle it.
