Every now and then I make the mistake of poking into LinkedIn and seeing the most genuinely unhinged monsters society has to offer

I remember when I was a student and being really excited for MIGS - it was a great time to see all sorts of talks and learn from amazing people! Easily one of the highlights of the year every time I went.

Now? I just don't think I could possibly justify going, not with that programming.

Hey folks! Google is fucking you via sneaky enshittification again!
Want the shit in your google drive to load instantly again, instead of taking for-fucking-ever?
Open your gdrive (web OR app)
Settings > Manage Apps
Gemini was checked "use as default" (and i sure the fuck didn't set it that way, this was a silent push)
Nuke that, and suddenly, folders that took up to a minute to populate and sort do so in a fraction of a second.

When we write or draw porn or erotica, we get banned from having a bank account and our livelihoods get seized even if we give it away for free.

When billionaires steal what we've written or drawn to churn out a slop-approximate of porn, they're allowed to charge for it.

How do I explain to offline people that my favorite Japanese mascot said "we can only be liberated from queer oppression if we are truly seen as human" and then started wielding fireworks like a rocket launcher on the side of a mountain without sounding like I've totally lost it?

Chiitan forever

It's really cool having a lot of lovely and amazing and wonderfully creative transgender and queer friends in the U.S. whom I actively fear for their safety now!

Actually fuck this timeline, I just want the people I care about to be safe and happy.

After the last FanFest and hearing friends talk about how fun it was, I was really looking forward to trying to attend the next one!

Now I'm not even thinking of going because I'd rather not risk travel to a country run by people who seem intent on wiping out queer folks :')

Silksong was developed the way it was because the developer didn't have to worry about money.

The only way you get more games developed like Silksong is if Universal Basic Income becomes a thing.

The parry in Clair Obscur elegantly tickles the part of my brain that goes "oh you can *TOTALLY* win this fight" and then I spend an hour on something I was *definitely* supposed to come back to later

Clair Obscur crashing is the only way I can get away from it long enough to go and do something else with my evening
