trying to convince my friend that there really was a nintendo DS launch title called “Penn & Teller’s Shithead Basketball”

Bobby, somehow, gets longer!

Kids “online safety” regulation that is actually mass online censorship is such an underreported issue. research shows that kids like LBGTQ youth experience positive benefits online and would benefit severely harmed by such censorship bills.

Adopt the Juicero or be left behind. A vital shift is underway in juicing. The Juicero is no longer optional. It's tomorrow's future, today. 40% of jobs are impacted by the Juicero. The Juicero isn't the future, it's a present necessity. Nobody hand-juices anymore. To hand-juice is like an impairment. Everyone must now focus on the delegation and the verification of a juice. We become less juice producers and more juice enablers. Adopt the Juicero or be left behind. We are burning every forest and poisoning every river to produce more Juiceros. You will become obsolete if you don't get on the Juicero bandwagon. Students must not be taught how to hand-juice. 80% of jobs will be lost to the Juicero. Students must be taught to exclusively focus on how to collaborate with the Juicero. Education must focus on orchestrating agentic Juicero systems. The Juicero is inevitable. Adopt the Juicero or be left behind. Adapt or risk becoming obsolete. As the Juicero rapidly advances toward automating up to 90% of juicing, the skills that will matter most include juice design, Juicero fluency, juice delegation, and juice quality assurance. 110% of jobs have been replaced by the Juicero.

The Fediverse liked this one so I'm treating you to this post as well, Bsky

Orbs influence the survival of the Party, so make sure to gather as many Orbs as possible, especially the rare ones.

Rules: Break the pots and retrieve as many orbs as possible!

Kingdom Hearts 2 is a game about collecting orbs

Digital painting of a cloudy sky, voluminous clouds in a slightly yellowish light, a faded blue in the corners of the frame. Where the light doesn’t shine, there are deep grey shadows, fraying into the background. There are a few birds flying across the sky.

We report in the worn out afternoon, around the same time as the day before. After everything, the churning, tearing and whirling of the clouds, it comes back to this: tired blue and faded light filtered through the dust and the damp that live in the sky. We breathe through it.

tell yoshi bedtime story now

there is no time. this is your story

‘I feel violated’ - Queer Creators Lose Livelihoods in Itch.io bans The recent Itch bans on queer and NSFW content have damaged careers and put countless people out of work. Though some are now on the verge of homelessness, they’re still organizing and fighting back. TNN delves into what’s at stake on the frontlines of the fight against anti-queer censorship.

Over the past month, independent content hosting platform Itch.io has been systematically banning queer & NSFW content. We talked to creators about how this impacted them, and how they’re fighting back.

2008. A voice emanates from the Grey Body Paint Factory. It says "Sales are way down since the recession." The voice is coming from an elderly executive. He solemnly brandishes a gun in front of other executives and says "gentlemen, it's been an honour." A voice rings out "WAIT! Our junior ad exec came up with an idea." The junior ad exec, holds up a placard displaying one of the trolls from popular webcomic Homestuck.

a list of the New Genres which all games can be properly classified into. these are: "Clean-em-up", "Spreadsheet Simulator", "Infant-Saving Simulator", "9-to-5 Like", "Ladder Climber", "Gem Management", "Stroggification Game", "First-Person Game", "Spice World Clone", and "Myst".

game genres are so fuzzy and confusing...what's an Action Adventure game?? what do you actually do in an RPG?? to fix this, i got together with loads of my lovely friends to create a much more descriptive classification system. all games can be neatly placed into the New Genres

Since I have been sent a DMCA takedown demand and also been persistently threatened with a spurious lawsuit, I am taking down The Unofficial Homestuck Collection’s web presence at Homestuck’s demand. At present the current set of legal demands do not affect the GitHub repository itself, so releases of the reader are still available. Some assets are also available from a copy Homestuck made of the collection against our wishes (homestuck.github.io) — more on this later. However, the original team behind the collection (including myself) has been forced to cease maintaining our work.

The HICU describes the UHC as being “originally” developed by us — stylizing my name incorrectly in the process — but explaining that it has been replaced by this new version, “controlled” by the Homestuck Independent Creative Union. This is done by the Homestuck Independent Creative Union under the official “Homestuck” GitHub account, because they’re functionally interchangable. Even publicly, the fork is narratively framing itself as a “successor” to the original UHC, supplanting the original. And it only differentiates itself by having different management. The implication is they have some sort of consent or authority to make this decision, but they do not. It’s the equivalent of mirroring a fan comic while demanding its original author stop writing and distributing their own work. The whole move is another example of Andrew trying to impose their will through force and pressure instead of treating the people around him with respect or allowing any sort of process that respects the rights and dignity of others.

I'm seeing a *lot* of confusion about the github.io UHC mirror. Does this mean there wasn't a takedown of the UHC? No; this is an intentional deception the HICU is making so people can "hand-wave" this as a non-issue by misrepresenting it. I explain in detail in the piece.

Help Ahmad's children survive I'm helping my friend, Ahmad Alsideek, raise funds to help his family survive.

ICYMI: four Palestinian kids need our help and they rely SOLELY on this link.

- three kids in Gaza suffering from malnutrition
- their teenage brother abroad getting brain cancer treatment with ZERO rights as a refugee
- their exhausted and very ill dad who needs our help for them

So instead of addressing any issues, Mastercard is FURTHER supressing criticism.

They're panicking.

Don't. Stop. Calling.
