I’m the Ogre you were warned about. Jewish, Bundist, Anarchist, Mutualist, Amateur Programmer. (It/It’s)
Had to get some errands done today. At Wegmans ("upper class" grocery chain), I was eyeballed *hard* by four different people for being visibly Jewish. Went to Walmart for other things, not a single person even glanced at me weird.
I am sure there's a lot to unpack in that observation.

Trying to claim a partisan gotcha on conservatives for accidentally revealing a systemic labor exploitation in the agricultural sector ain’t the flex y’all think it is.
Smugly pointing out that wypipo won’t pick fruit is fucking wild now that y’all know migrants are exploited and underpaid for it.

Day off. Cran-Apple "herbal beverage" consumed. Now it waits, and will write game code while herbally infused.
I don't even know what tags to put in here...

Tonight is new tzitzis night.
Untie the old strings, and tie new strings on my tallit katan.
What are you up to tonight?

Solved a big issue in my Pico-8 cart tonight. Objects are now placed only on walkable tiles, no more inside-wall spawns.
No YT tutorials either. Just the power of noodle and documentation.
anyway, enjoy some dev-footage of the current state of Gobs.

I'm having a hard time with Hanukkah this year.
My guilty admission is I haven't set up a *real* menorah yet, and it's the third night.
Being disconnected from your community is hard.
I'm tired.
Probably more than a little depressed.
Wish I had some deep left analysis or pithy remark.

If your "allyship" comes with baggage and "well akshually", you can fuck right off with it.

Ok. So if HONK minhag is to enjoy fried food, where do we draw the line? Do chicken wings satisfy minhag? Potato chips? Taquitos? Mozzarella sticks? French fries?

Shameless plug. I made an interactive pixel art Menorah for Hanukkah on the TIC-80.
It'd be pretty darn neat if you'd go check it out.

I have a few days, I can do it.
Using TIC-80 to make a virtual Menorah for Hannukah.
Gotta write the clock function to set the lights properly for each night.
And draw a "Happy HONK" message on the screen where the timestamp is now.

I guess, amateur game dev programming update?

At least my code is clean and organized?

Jewish problems: I wear tzitzis every day. Day job is a warehouse. I have ruined a set of tzitzis because warehouse, only on one side. In ONE week.
