As the United States of America is neither a union of all the states in the Americas nor the only union of states in the Americas, and as such the demonym "American" robs the identities of two whole continents of nations and most of a third continent, I propose that the federal union currently bearing the name should instead recognize the heritage of its first emperor, adopting the name "Nortonian Empire," and recognizing its people with the demonym "Nortonian," effective 1859-09-17.
"you shouldn't feel bad about not doing anything all day, capitalism is a human construct!!! 😊😊😊💜💜💜" i don't feel bad because i'm not productive in the capitalist sense. i feel bad because i've done nothing but scroll social media all day. being productive for the self regardless of capitalism is mental health too. fuck your toxic positivity

my GPU is idling at 80c... 🥲

spoilers, i didn't recover the whole JPEG. but about half of it is intelligible
now i just need to sample the whole fuckin base64 alphabet
no conventional OCR does not work on this at all
is there a type of quasi-OCR already done that i can leverage to just recognize exact characters which are always rendered identically like this or do i need to get my paws dirty in the python mines
jackbox party pack 10 dodo re mi is really fun
is thermal grizzly a pun on thermal grease. did i just figure that out now. am i the last one to figure that out
can you imagine if original super mario brothers was released today as a GaaS and JP smb2 was "season 2" i don't have any point to make here i just think we're currently living in the dumbest timeline
i'm so special and cool and absolutely everybody loves me and i'm the queen of my world
