“I need a good dopamine boost…”

The word is “tummy.”

This looks hilarious. Wishlisted.

Protests that exist within the legal confines of the government you’re protesting against, are essentially just block parties. They’re a release valve.

I definitely didn’t understand most of it then as a kid, but I feel like it opened a doorway that shaped who I am today. That was also in the 90s when US society wasn’t yet destitute for working class families.

My parents were antiwar and liberal af. My mom once told me as a kid that if the draft happened, they’d move me to Canada. So I was radicalized pretty early on about imperialism (in the most rudimentary sense—I was a kid after all).

The drawings weren’t great either lol. I still have them somewhere.

Easily one of the worst takes I’ve ever seen.

I got a bunch of the Resident Evil games on sale, so I’ve been playing RE6. It’s fun and runs incredibly well on the Deck (I didn’t know what to expect). There are way too many RE games to know what the hell is going on in the story now, but I’ve always liked 1-5, so figured I finally needed to play the rest.

I was drawing pictures making fun of George Bush Sr. in 7th grade. I’ve felt bad about this place for uhhhh… a while.

Funny how this ties nicely into Meta’s lobbying for age verification and how it’s suddenly a conversation we keep seeing crop up. The pattern recognition tools in my brain see nothing but constant red flags these days.

They flooded the web with bots, advertisers are backing out because of it, and now both Spez and Zuck are panicking.

“It’s just a harmless field; what’s the big deal?”

The big deal is that it’s on the heels of age verification bullshit that fascists are pushing through with the help of tech bros, so that they can eventually push all of us into a scenario where we have zero privacy.

It’s not the adding of the field itself or the fact that it can be filled with nonsense. It’s the reasoning backing it.

“But it’s the law!”

Yeah, fucking and…? It’s a stupid mass surveillance law disguised as a protection, and per usual, it’s written like vague dog shit. This is the smallest part of the wedge. More will come of this and if developers like this keep volunteering themselves to help the fascists, we will all be fucked. Here’s an alternative approach: just don’t add this. You can fight back by not fucking implementing this. Easy.

Even if it looked good, it has zero context of the original artists’ intent. This is like having AI summarize pages of a book as you read. You’re now locked a layer away from the original artist’s work and it’s a layer controlled by corpos. No thank you.
