Hello world~

I write story ideas with a focus for setting and characters. My passions are many, but mostly I focus on the following, in no particular order:

> screenwriting
> ttrpgs
> science fiction
> urban design
> graffiti
> cassette futurism
> mecha & military
> physical security

Anyway uh if you want to read my most normal Halo fic (as opposed to my most unhinged) it's the one where I backfill a gap in the Halo 3 timeline to make the Chief and Arbiter make more sense as friends.
It starts with a cool description of the Shadow of Intent!!!

Things can feel hopeless but this year, people fought back. Here's how the town of Ypsilanti, Michigan is taking on the construction of a 'high-performance computing facility' that would service a nuclear weapons laboratory 1,500 miles away.

I started 2025 off with norovirus (literally a few hours before midnight on New Year’s Eve), and my best friend is ending it with norovirus…

What a weird, gross, and awful way to book-end the year

Two things on this solstice/holiday week:

1. Kindness costs nothing.
2. Make the most of the time you have.

That's all. Carry on.

The main motive of right wing voters since whenever is to hurt the people they think deserve it

re: tariffs/ICE/etc, regret is likely an unproductive topic – that regret is only sincere insofar as they notice the *wrong* people are hurt, rather than voting to hurt people being wrong as a concept
We all know there's going to be powerful people from both sides of the aisle in those files if anything ever does get released. But that's not the reality these folks who are *most* obsessed with this want. They want it to be all Dems and left leaning people because it validates their worldview.

In D&D, imagine if every time a magic user cast a spell, everyone within miles equal to the spell's level squared could feel it? So third level spells could be felt nine miles away, sixth level thirty six miles, etc. "A disturbance in the force," would be an interesting random encounter.

Making *intense* progress on learning how the Arma 3 scenario editor works. My project this weekend: an interactive ORBAT chart!

It was intimidating, but thanks to community documentation, it turned out to be way easier than I thought. The hardest part was coming up with the unit names~

I think that IRL forced disappearances and increased policing and institutional capture of all public forums are in fact related phenomena tbh.

Resisting authoritarianism on all fronts is a better use of time than oppression olympics and language policing, even where one is worse than the other.

And even more broadly, why is a rogue National Parks staffer talking about the actual National Parks less than 2% of the time?

bsky.app/profile/altw...
Fun fact: by my count, the Alt National Park Service has posted about the real National Parks 66 times.

With their roughly 3,900 total posts, this means that about 1.6% of posts by the Alt National Park Service are about the actual National Park Service.

Many freelancers in the United States rely on ACA marketplace plans for their health insurance. In an industry that has already been working overtime to turn gamedevs into gig workers, freelance and contract devs are about to get even more squeezed. This is unacceptable.

The news is going to be terrible every single day for the foreseeable future. Do not get wrapped up in the daily discourse. Think about what role you can play IRL to help the ppl around you. There’s probably ppl already doing what you think should be doing, join them. If not - GO DO IT! We need you.
One solid way you can fight back today & everyday is to look out for your neighbor, & not just in theory. If you’re in LA, someone in your building probably needs a mask. Someone living outside probably needs a meal. That person being stopped by the cops needs someone to record what’s happening.
The way forward is the same as it’s always been - organize your neighborhood, your household, your workplace. Nobody is coming to save us except ourselves. Look out for one another.

How did it come to this? These are students who should be chilling with their friends, looking forward to a future. And yet... "They are just youths. Return them their innocence." "Your so-called easy life - someone helped you fight for it."
