There's a phenomenon with internet arguments that I think of as "eternal crossfire" where everybody talks about what they've experienced directly as though that is the one and only thing that is happening everywhere, and any attempt to clarify that it's not the entire story is seen as an attack. And every single side involved in the argument does the same thing, making the conflict impossible to deesecalate. Bad actors love this shit. They can just set off explosives on every side and watch them destroy each other.

https://twitch.tv/madewokherd More Klonoa. I looked up a walkthrough for the screen where I got stuck last time.
The best use of lucid dreaming is not having to wait to tell your friends they were in your dream, you can do that as it happens!

ars technica: we don't know how they did it but google chrome now extracts a pint of blood every time you log on
chrome user, dizzy from blood loss: I swear to god I am like this close to switching to firefox
another chrome user, on the verge of fainting from severe blood loss: no need to resort to that, just switch to [insert today's trendy chrome fork here] and be smart like meeee

If you're switching to Firefox this week, I collected a list of the team's favourite hidden features back when I worked there:

What is your main browser (engine)?
Re-running a poll I saw on Mastodon a while ago, before various migrations. Just collecting numbers, not seeking advice or anything. Please boost for reach.

Google’s widely opposed ad platform, the “Privacy Sandbox,” launches in Chrome
Chrome now directly tracks users, generates a "topic" list it shares with advertisers.

I may have found the on/off switch but I have no idea how to use this thing.

Be your authentic self.
If that means the timid townsfolk flee before your dangerously shambling form, terrible darkness, and unearthly beauty, so be it.

Well, I hope you're happy.
You've been spending all your time doing your best despite a mind a body lacking a manual, a society that's largely indifferent to whether even your basic needs are met, and (statistically) repeated traumatic experiences. And maybe discrimination for something that shouldn't reflect badly on you, or flat denial of your lived experience which is categorically real and valid.
After all that, you deserve happiness. It's OK if you haven't found it yet, but I hope you do.

I'm a geologist and this isn't cute or funny. Rocks only climb trees like this when they're very stressed.
