have you heard of #webgbcam ?
it's a web tool (PWA even, add it to your home screen!) that uses your device's cameras to simulate the look of the game boy camera! you can record short gifs with it and there's also a 1bpp atkinson dithering mode!

How's your Friday night going? โ It was pretty chill I guess. I wasn't feeling too great after work so I just kinda lounged around watching streams and drinking wine. And then later on I did some more work on the new blog I want to set up... https://alterspring.org/@taizou/a/116506833190023150

re: ukpol, abuse reference
one of the lords proposals was that the reasoning for whatever restrictions they land on should be taught in the national curriculum - quite revealing tbh that they don't want to teach them how to keep safe but do want to tell them that daddy government is keeping them locked away for their own good
like i often call this shit abusive but they really make the parallels clear sometimes
re: ukpol
and i do need to emphasise by the way that when they talk about preventing under 16s from "stranger pairing" or whatever they really mean preventing anyone who has not ID verified. so even if you don't give a shit about the kids (and you should) this will affect everyone
re: ukpol
we should be educating kids about what dangerous interactions look like and the tools they have to block and report people or disable stranger contact on their own terms. but nah fuck informing and empowering them to keep themselves safe eh. that's too hard. just take away their rights
