ohai frens not from the south:

u need to understand that the south is composed of communities of people of color, queer and trans people, and disabled people, as well as vast natural ecosystems, which are all being held hostage by a system that wants them dead and the land despoiled in the name of profit.

make sure that your words and actions are in solidarity with marginalized people and with ecosystems.

One minor problem I had when writing this upcoming blog post was whether I should switch to Ogg for audio files, or stick with MP3s.

I was thinking they would be smaller. One of my tests was twice as big as the VBR MP3, for a 20 second clip.

Sticking with MP3s it is. :blobtongue:

Fuck Epic Games 

Funny how Epic buys the studio behind Rocket League and then suddenly, online support is getting patched out of MacOS and Linux versions because it's "not commercially viable". :thaenkin:

(fuck off, they could probably fund the game's future budgets ten times over with the amount of money they scam from children playing Fartnite)

tumblr, minor self-reflection 

Updated my Tumblr profile for the first time in years.

Probably since a friend from a super old community finally followed me after following her for so long.

I even made a Sonic reference because I'm funny

emails, fonts, Undertale 

I get weekly emails from Bing Rewards about various things.

This week's was font-themed. One of them was asking which font was created by Microsoft in 1994, which was Comic Sans.

The next part was talking about a SNL skit that featured the Papyrus font.

It's weird when I think of those not as fonts, but as Undertale characters. :blobtongue:

motivation (+?) 

Lately I've tried to remember each day if I've done something. It makes me feel better and not like I "wasted the day away."

Even if it's mundane house stuff.

birdsite, brands 

Okay, using the Sonic movie to advertise Jack in the Box's new tiny tacos is... certainly a thing.

What if we put Sailor Moon's head on top of Sailor Moon's body! 

It'd look something... like this!

It's Martin Luther King day, adjusted to the next monday so federal employees get more three-day weekends.

Read you a Letter From Birmingham Jail: web.cn.edu/kwheeler/documents/

A guy I respect said everyone should read it three times: first just to read it, second to appreciate/study it as a masterpiece of composition & rhetoric, and thirdly and most importantly to /deeply/ consider the message as it applies to you, today, right now, in real life. If you're white and american, that letter is addressed to *you*.

Still feeling tired today, but at least I'm getting some things around the house done, which is the more important thing.

calling people cute, fears 

Still getting used to complimenting people a lot.

Admittedly I'm afraid I might be developing crushes just on how many cute people there are, though...

The idea that Y2K wasn't actually a big deal because nothing big ended up going down because of it is an *incredibly* dangerous error in thought.

Y2K didn't end up being a big deal because *tens of thousands of programmers* spent *millions of hours* making sure that it wasn't.

unusual earworms 

today is a day where apparently I have get the most bizarre earworms, as the parody of The Wall that Anthony Fantano did to criticize The Nostalgia Critic's review of The Wall is stuck in my head.

I was up 'til 2am last night poking around in destiny 2 garbage and woke up around six hours later.

I slept several hours without interruption. Felt weird, I'm so used to sleeping in 1-2 hour chunks.

video games, asian stereotypes 

I'm rewriting an old article I wrote about the original Shadow Warrior and I had to replay it to get some screenshots.

Hoo-boy this game has a lot of fairly ugly asian stereotypes in it

honestly need to find more people to follow on here.

I've been on mastodon for two years and I need to stop like, browsing the local/federated timelines constantly.
