I sort of want to get back into physical media and DVDs, and set up a projector in here, and turns out it's a little Hard Mode if you DON'T want Smart Features. I want these devices dumb as a box of rocks, and Not Allowed Online like homeschooled Amish children
Had a dream last night where i was given the practical life advice: don't seal yourself in the pages of a magical book for safety, because it's hard to get back out. Feeling very "...oh yeah, sure, that seems right" about this.
searched this a while ago, and it feels very correct to me that the real life people who go by "Honey Hart" and/or "Heart" appear to be at least two drag queens, a streamer who plays horse games, and a real estate agent
extremely on-brand unofficial Band Vs Band recipe! She would love this, and bake an absolutely impractical quantity of Honey Hearts
one of my little ambient fears, that I can do nothing about, is that Future People will be going “Can you BELIEVE the stupid, harmful stuff everyone bought into in the 2020s?! Idiots!” …in kind of a cultural erasure and forgetting of, oh my god, no, We Knew, we yelled about it, we tried
on the plus side, tho: I found it very stressful to decide where to go instead of twitter...and of all the options, turns out bluesky was for SURE the right call for the vibes i like, and where people I like ended up. love to get something right, from time to time
Well, I finally locked my god dang twitter to only existing followers. I'm not posting over there, or checking it much, and I have other places for new people to follow me and zero desire to interact with non follower and/or following strangers over there anymore. this seemed best.
my classic maneuver, seeing one of the cats curled up on the couch and sneaking in with a blanket to Join The Nap without startling her away
taking to moment to consider that back in, say, the 1980s or 90s, the words "crypto" and "AI" were probably in reference some fun thing you might enjoy hearing about. a saturday morning cartoon where a mummy and a robot decipher mysterious puzzles
formulating a theory that, in a parallel to how algorithms do things like radicalize people into hate groups, the instagram "recommended" posts that have latched onto me liking creative process videos are just going to keep showing me more and more dangerous crafts until it's all just stuff on fire
