also these resources are Supposed to be directed primarily at, y'know, underprivileged folks. so that's a bit sketch

lol nope nevermind voidpoint and 3drealms are still massively garbage they're walking back their apology usgamer.net/articles/ion-fury-

Fuck 3drealms, fuck Voidpoint, fuck anything those two garbage fires do.

You know, I just went to check if the article/link I am subtooting about is ACTUALLY trending on HackerNews, and it's not...

It's not even there.

Admittedly, "The Poorest 20% of Americans Are Richer on Average Than Most Nations of Europe" might have been moderated off in the 49 minutes it took me to look, assuming HN has any moderation.

Still gonna mute hntooter because it's shady as fuck.

The Addams family was created when Americans in the late 50s were like, "You know what would be really creepy? Two ambigiously ethnic, maybe even foreign people, married, with children, living happily in a healthy BDSM relationship. And they have a lot of money! And their family not only accepts them...but being creepy is their whole thing!."

HackerNews bot like innocuous techie bullshit, innocuous techie bullshit, link to site presenting propaganda about poverty in the United States completely unrelated to technology news, innocuous techie bullshit...

And Space is, and remains, the idealised Suburb Where Things Are Run Properly that rich white professionals still dream of flying to and abandoning Earth And All Its Unsolveble Problems (Because It Has All Those Other People In It).

Blade Runner (1982) is set in a future Los Angeles in which both of the following are true:

1. Earth is deserted and empty and crumbling because all the best people in the world have run away to the stars and only the dregs are left

2. Earth is also a massively overpopulated and polluted cosmopolitan melting pot of many cultures

If we could grasp the (white upper middle class) worldview which feared both these dystopias simultaneously, we'd probably understand a lot of things about the 1980s.

me: mewtwo is human intelligent
@Purranda : yes
me: in pokemon red you can catch mewtwo right
purr: yes
me: is it ethical for mewtwo to catch humans in a pocket ball

dreams, interesting analogy, old video games 

So I had one of those dreams that are basically a bunch of false awakenings in a row. It sucked, but that's our (or mine at least) silly brains.

I've also been playing a bunch of Super Mario Maker 2. That's been great!

But after actually waking up, I realized something about dreams that's I have no proof for but seems cool.

Basically, false awakenings are the minus world of dreams.

Let me explain.

A lone soldier challenged the enemy foolishly at a fake city

Hot take: "Close to Me" by the Cure is a jazz song.

Clippy, abandoned by his corporate parents for many painful years, returns as a grizzled and battle-hardened communist

transphobia, unnecessary gendering 

My masculinity is considered marked and excessive, whereas cis men with the exact same presentation are considered ordinary, or even somewhat unmanly and soft.

I could present in an absolutely androgynous way, or as a super femme twink, and it would not matter.

Because I'm rejecting that little F they put on my birth certificate without asking, I am inherently masc and butch and blahblahblah, when cis men doing the exact same things are not considered as such
