Feeling extremely furry trash hacker today.

By the glow of a SAD lamp I’m trying to clear enough space under the nail polish, VR headsets, collars and pasties to find room to repair my split-mechanical so I can finish writing the NATS server I need.

Would someone please build a bot that replies to every T* and E* tweet with "lol."

Yeah they're evil and gross and dangerous, they're also stupid af, but you know my generation grew up watching Ghostbusters so we're used to Zuul manifesting this way.

Someone asked me recently why all UX tutorials online seem to be about NFT marketplaces, and I’m pretty sure the reason is that’s the final year it was possible to work in UX as a commercial designer. It’s a weird record of the obliteration of the industry, like being a Vault-Tec salesman.

@naelstrof.bsky.social and I have our first stable version of our new multithreaded version of Jiggle Physics for Unity!

I am excited to be able to offer this free and open source under the MIT license. If you use it to make something cool I'd love to see!

Whatever happened, or happens in the future, if you over-stress and have it impact your life, that probably does more damage than whatever you or others can say over the internet.

If you're reading this, you're probably progressive and queer.
You smiling less frequently makes the world worse.

Typefucking a corporate slop machine isnt queer. It barely even qualifies for transhumanist thought at this stage.

If you want post-gender romance, or something even remotely queer, find a therian or someone with neopronouns and do ERP with them. You will be infinitely better for it than this shit.

Besides the fact that my personal backchannel made of humans (and therians. and others.) is more useful and knowledgable than any algo, Sam's "like a panel of Ph.D. experts" comment completely misunderstands what a Ph.D is, why you'd have one and what you do with it.

OpenAI releases the newest version of the AI model that powers its popular ChatGPT chatbot, with CEO Sam Altman promoting it as like having a “team of Ph.D. level experts in your pocket.”

So I'd forgotten that I rented out a theatre for a private showing of CATS this week (as one does.)

If you are local to Cambridge MA and feel like you need a dose of Mr. Mistoffelees, DM me for details #yesRly #foxThings

Super exciting to see!
Helped out on the stress test for @basisvr.org this afternoon! 540 clients connected to one instance while I was in (11 of them were mine, ran out of RAM lol). Still got 35-40fps in world, though audio was dead and avatar updates were happening at like 1hz. Amazing everything stayed up tho!

The correct response to the loneliness epidemic and recent surge in anti-intellectualism really shouldn’t have been to sell you a global-warming-powered search engine in a clippy-suit, but here we are.

Enjoy your fucked-up broken future.

They think we don't have time for this shit. Yet they're the ones who took away all our work, meaning we have all the time.

Call your reps.
This bill would criminalize pornography by legally redefining what it means to be obscene.

Period. Full stop. No more porn legally. If you post porn whether free pics or paid vids. this affects you!

Back from #AWU and a week w/ my love @atticusfrost.bsky.social.

Eternally grateful for furry and my broader queer family for keeping the lights on, being there for each other and reminding me we’re not here to be miserable, even if (especially when) things are extraordinarily shitty.
