i once had a dream that i invaded hell to rescue my childhood pet iguana, only to discover she didn’t want to leave. people said “why would an iguana leave a heat source like hell” and it all made sense
my favorite past time when talking to much younger men is to give them advice on wooing women that is really just care and feeding instructions for iguanas

blocklists might be one of the worst features of this site just because you have to place insurmountable amounts of trust in a random person operating them to not cut you off from entire networks without notice or appeal
really the only advice I can give both new and old users is don’t sub to blocklists, because people use them for revenge and trolling and you’ll end up blocking people you like 💀
Why tf? Were you added to one of these revenge blocklists? I have a bunch of folks blocking me because of those. Alas :///

The thing that bothers me about our post-pandemic COVID discourse is how much of it isn't about how to do things better next time, it's playing Monday morning quarterback. It's not about learning, it's about spending years trying to win arguments that people had online from March 2020.
this is a good response to In Covid's Wake
what Kucharski gets right, crucially, is holding in tension the fact that the shutdown was brutally and inequitably costly, and the fact that not doing a shutdown would have been even more brutal and inequitable

New blog post! I wrote about Father Christmas, the weirdly barebones Japan-exclusive CD-ROM game based on the British storybook. It's... not very good, so I didn't have much to say, but I *did* find some interesting stuff in here anyway.

It's kinda heartbreaking to see so many artists being like "can I post about OCs and not just fanart?", "can I talk about other stuff?", "can I post often?" because the other hellsite literally punished you for doing...normal things you do as an artist - as a person, even.

Sci-fi show mnemonic device:
If it's got great reviews but production is slow, it's an Apple show.
If people in it are exploding all the time, it's on Amazon Prime.
If a coworker or relative keeps talking about it and you told them you might watch it even though you know you won't, it's Netlix.

My advice for having a nice bluesky experience:
- follow *and boost* anybody who posts weird/interesting stuff. If your paths diverge you can mute them
- interact with people in good faith and you'll often be met with the same (and gain followers)
- post the kinds of things you want to see more of!

Because again the core issue wasn't actually jobs in these fields going to people 'because woke' but that there were no jobs to be had at all.
