We're losing Myrient to a severe lack of funds and AI making storage too expensive 😭

There so many better reasons to be mad at Discord besides "they want to make money" or "they do it by charging for the ability to use a fancy font for your name"

Age verification is bullshit and venture capital must be replaced with a more sustainable system of funding

But in the meantime, servers and labor cost a lot of money, and avatar decorations and emojis are a relatively harmless thing to charge for vs the alternatives

Cohost would never have retweeted the State of the Union.

Prometheus says “hot take” and Greek gods respond “no give that back.”

Hive minds are almost always portrayed as throwing individuals into the meat grinder for the benefit of the collective

Are there examples of fiction where a hive mind was instead over-exposed to the conditions of its parts? A hive mind that feels the pain of each individual death as crippling?

feels everybody missed the 'was used in a limited test in the UK' bit about the whole Persona/Discord thing.

they should make american horseracing more inclusive by adding a Childfree Cup to balance it out

My greatest regret is never getting to the indulgence phase of "how to fund Cohost" discourse

The best part of having been on Cohost is that you have the moral high ground when it comes to "Leaving Twitter" discourse and also you're not going to hell. They actually ask you about it after you die and if you show them your eggbug plush St. Peter fist bumps you and lets you into Cool Heaven

The little three sliders that was just one piece, the sound when you transported someone .... It's so cool

The familiar emotional feeling of a parent bearing down on their child (who has been planning to move out for a while) the moment it starts to look like they might be capable of getting out

"token anxiety"; or, a slot machine by any other name You're absolutely right!

You can, and I did, and I still had a balance leftover, and I think you still have to file even just to confirm that you're settled up (not 100% about that last one)

Ballot measure to add a new Portland metro tax to fund building whatever system is needed to pay all my local taxes on the statewide return instead of submitting 2-3 near identical forms on the city revenue website
