Do not let big name orgs seize this moment to control your reaction as they try to quell your righteous anger. They have no authority to dictate what a “proper” response is. That fucking gestapo pig murdered an innocent person in broad daylight, and the government is trying to cover it up. Be angry.

heavily considering moving to NYC. Heavily.
Zohran just went out and fixed the Williamsburg Bridge bike entrance. Just did it. No faffing, no nonsense. Bam. Fixed.

Reclassifying the urgency of the first stage of fundraising to high after doing some calculations. Any amount appreciated alliteratively.
Let's start 2026 with a hopeful campaign!

As traditionally sales lag in January and also France turns out to be expensive I'm setting the goal at 3500. At least half of that is moderately urgent!

Art: random, but theming it Mediterranean!

Paypal in bio, if you're European: bank info in the DMs!

FGC take note, it is actually possible to make your community less toxic if you put in the work
The extent to which Games Done Quick has helped to steer the larger speedrunning community - one of the most hardcore video game enthusiast subcultures there is - into becoming something so welcoming, inclusive and supportive astonishes me

The scylla of everyone treating every news story like they just started paying attention and acting naive and brand new

The charybdis of pointing out nothing is new and acting jaded and above it to the point of denying new contexts and realities to stay safely embedded in left ideologies

i keep saying to go organize locally, because its the only way out of this.

you want a long-term solution? stop waiting to be saved and start building that solution.

there are people around you doing this work. you have to make the effort to work with them.

and no, the answer isn't elections

it's clear that calling and voting won't help us here
i can't say it, but we all know what needs to be done
and we need to stop posting about it and actually put in the work to make it happen
can't pin your hopes on a lone actor either
build it wherever you can, teach normal people how to help
fight

Annoyed that the "Wow how did Rance make it on steam but Horses got banned?" discussion point quickly pivoted to "We need to ban Rance" instead of "Valves internal guidelines for what is or isn't allowed is nonsensical"

i'm not gonna bother trying to engage with the AI discourse anymore
i recommend you do the same
there's nothing to be gained from it, and the biggest problems will sort themselves out with the coming economic crash.
i will simply wait for my enemies to fall on their swords.
That is inevitable.

I have now been yelled at for:

1. Not being mad enough about E33 using AI

2. Ruining E33 for others by telling people it used AI

3. Being too mad at E33 for using AI

And at this point I just don't want to touch the subject because it's just a vortex of misery, paranoia and recriminations.
Too long for a post but this is where I'm at rn

because the USA seem to be the only country in the world that bet on hyperscaler hosted AI models instead of open source AI models usable on smaller systems from smaller datacenters to ordinary PCs and even phones.

I don't think AI will ever fully go away again however when it comes to the hyperscaler focused US-american AI industry with "Open"AI, etc. I actually think it's possible it could go away again

“try water fox or ice weasel” try chill penguin. install flame mammoth. you just download bubble crab. literally just use boomer kuwanger. sting chameleon has a search bar, use it to find toxic seahorse.
I asked what I should use instead of firefox and someone said “floorp” and I legitimately thought it was a bit for like five minutes. tech has gone beyond making the torment nexus real to making poob real.

The Internet was never perfect but it used to be usable, functional. I know how we got here and I want the old Internet back. I want forums back. I want personal sites. I want stuff not written by a machine. I just want shit to work again.
