the "looks inside" meme cat. a grey and white cat looking down at a camera from an extreme close-up. the perspective is skewed and their faces looks distorted from their nose down the sides of their face. the effect is a cat that looks somewhat incredulous.

it took rust+bevy 2+ minutes to compile a Hello World on a maxed out M3 MBP

good god

CW: politics, cult mention

this pretty much sums up what i have learned about "rationalism" - the ideology Elon Musk, Sam Altman, Peter Theil, etc all believe in

i have presented it as a meme but let me be clear that this is not an exaggeration, the truth really is this fucking stupid
the "progressively larger dominos" meme, of a man in a blue shirt knocking over a tiny domino in a series of progressively larger dominos, until the final one is nearly 4 feet tall. it is meant to represent a chain of events which seem disproportionate in scope, i.e: something utterly trivial leading to something that has international significance over a series of events. the first domino is labeled "bad harry potter fan fiction". the final domino is labeled "technofascist apocalypse". the man setting the domino chain off is labeled "some fucking nerd idk".

in case you were wondering if the rest of the bluesky crew was normal: days after the CEO implicitly declared that transphobia is free speech, another bluesky crew member posted a long screed about how you shouldn't be bigoted against LLMs

"whatever that means" doing some seriously heavy lifting
a post by hailey on bluesky "an unfortunate irony about this post - and even if you are the staunchest anti-ai critic out there, i think you’d agree - is that some of the most bigoted things are being said to respond to this. copy/pasting phrasing and terminology used by bigots but replacing “dna” with “bits” doesn’t make it ok if you’re writing a sentence that sounds like eugenics but you go “oh that’s fine to say because it’s not a real person” (whatever that means) you may want to consider what made you okay with saying that"

when I say "full Lowtax" I mean his ex-wife literally popped into a thread and made the comparison herself

burn baby burn
a post by account Spooky Tired on Bluesky: "I was married to the guy and I read her post and had some weird body memory reaction and was like, did he possess her? Why are we repeating history?"

in case all you feditooters aren't aware: the CEO of Bluesky is currently crashing the fuck out and going full Lowtax on her users

it's a sight to behold
a post by Jay of Bluesky fame "You could try a poster's strike. I hear that works" she has been ratioed in the comments and quote posts a post by Jay "Are you paying us? Where?" a post of Jay responding to a question about the transphobic propaganda on bluesky with "WAFFLES" as a non-sequitur Jay posting a picture of waffles she had for breakfast, mocking the previous posters below, someone chides her for trying to be a troll

if you're wondering why the site seems to be run by vibe coding morons, it's because it's run by vibe coding morons
@jay.bsky.team Can't code? I'd say ask a friend, but at the rate Al is improving, maybe you won't even need to. Someone built a functional Appview with replit overnight.

some shots from the past few days
sunset over a lake at a beach. it is a bright and deep orange hue that cascades over the lake in a single column towards the camera. the sun is setting over some low-lying hilltops in the background. a waterfall to the left which feeds a stream that runs between two sheer cliffs, going out towards a large lake in the distance. pines and cedars line the cliff faces. another sunset over a lake, but the lake is much more placid and mirror-like. the sun is occluded by trees to the right, as a thin layer of mist and fog begins to form directly over the lake's surface. the sky has a pale gradient from orange upwards to teal. a road sign which indicates "no gas for 185 km". it is also bilingual.

i've missed this
photo of a Ontario provincial park at sunset. there are large rock formations lining the sides of a placid lake, with trees jutting out of the rock faces.

riding through the rockies vs. riding through the prairies
a professional motorcyclist on a racetrack going knee-down in a corner to maximize their speed and cut the corner as precisely as possible. there are red and white strips indicating they are at the very edge of the track. a man eating an entire pizza on a motorcycle on the freeway with both of his hands engaged in this task.

this was my campsite for the past two nights

how are the rocky mountains real
the rocky mountains shrouded in mist against an extremely pale blue sky, the sun backlighting them from the left. similar to before, but wide-angle. sideways god-rays can be seen from the mountains to the left, illuminating the mountains on the right, during twilight sunset.

anyway, I scoured streetview of the Trans Canada looking for any spot that looked similar to the photo from memory.

and I think I found it.

this is as good a recreation of the photograph I half-remember from 7 years ago as it's going to get.

my mission is now complete.
a deranged lesbian on a giant red touring motorcycle with a trailer attached, pointed to the right. behind her, clouds lightly blanket a pair of tall mountains in the rockies. cedar trees can be seen in all directions up their peaks.

i can't take it anymore
picture taken in the rocky mountains on a partly cloudy yet sunny day. a snow-peaked mountain stands tall as it is gently draped with clouds. numerous cedar trees skirt its base. in the immediate foreground is a small farm.

hearing that Deltarune's development has taken so long because Toby Fox's physical disabilities have at times required him to use voice-to-text to even operate a computer has put things in perspective for me
Personal life Fox is secretive and does not typically do interviews. He has chronic wrist and hand pain that regularly disables him from programming and composing, and often relies on speech-to-text software as his computer input method. In September 2020, Fox cited a flare-up of this pain as a factor in the delayed development of Deltarune's second chapter.

good morning
the coastal mountains of BC as seen through a thick foggy cloud cover and wildfire smoke, with the sun shining in the very upper-right. the haze makes each range appear cinematically stacked on top of each other.
