The deep goal of bluesky is to decentralize the social internet so that every individual controls their experience of it rather than having it be controlled by 5 random billionaires. Everyone thinks they signed up for a demuskified twitter...we actually signed an exciting and bizarre experiment.

History has proven me correct
A potential partner must have the correct level of enthusiasm about the Muppets. Too little and their hearts are devoid of joy. Too much and they are into an extreme kink so disgusting only a theatre kid could imagine it.

Lee Jae-myung, Leader of South Korea's Democratic Party, live-streamed himself scaling the walls of the National Assembly to bypass military barricades so that he could vote to overturn the President's martial law.

Election results aren't that bad. Far right absolutely routed. SF warned (while avoiding huge seat losses) that right wing populism is not a vote winner. Labour partially recovered, but deliciously deprived of opportunity to go into coalition. PbP more-or-less "as was," despite intense targeting...

When not burning through litRPGs, I'm polishing off reference books to help expand my thoughts for settings. The eternal challenge of fiction writing: To construct a facade of expertise and intentionality as stage crews do a backdrop.

When I was 20 it was easy to believe that the problem was that those in power were old and out of touch.
Now I’m much older, many politicians are from my own age cohort and most problems remain the same or got worse.
Hoping for the bad ones to eventually retire and die off doesn’t work.

I hate how my body temperature can communicate how tired I am better than my brain. My ability to maintain homeostasis breaks down and I start shivering uncontrollably so hard my teeth chatter in 70F rooms and it makes me feel like a moron.

Something I learned today: if you block someone on LinkedIn, and then decide to unblock them in order to see something they said, you are unable to reblock them for 48 hours.
