After historically winning three U.S. presidential elections, Donald Trump will put a stop to Alvin Bragg's kangaroo court prosecution by charging all libtards with TREASON. The J6 patriots will receive full pardons and be deputized by Kash Patel's FBI, with Matthew Gaetz as special counsel; all liberals will be rounded up and sent to DOGE-approved FEMA camps for re-indoctrination. If you are a liberal illegal occupying this great country it would be wise to invest in a one-way flight ticket (and Truth Social stock!)

The radicalized far left woke mob now wants to kill all Jews. Leftist interselectionism has gone too far, much like going off the side of the Pac Man screen and coming right back around the other side as a FULL NAZI. And now the rich white university kids (useful idiots) are occupying city hall with tents and bullhorns spouting antisemitic tropes. That's what happens when you interselectionize trans rights with Islamic extremist Jew haters. Once you're done getting kicked out of university, Al Quaeda will be throwing your queer asses off buildings as thanks for your part in supporting terrorism.

We come together because we are fundamentally bored. We could spin a grandeur about ideals, uprising and new hope, but let’s cut the crap. We’re just bored and we want something to do and now we’re gonna fucking do it!

Per the 1769 Articles of Confederation I am a free citizen traveling on a public roadway. I am not required to consent to any search and no law enforcement officer has jurisdiction to require production of my identifying information. If I am not being detained then I am free to go. Any further delay is in violation of my human rights. I advise you to contact your supervisor if you have any further questions (ask him about the Articles of Confederation)

So unfortunately the shiba inu needed ACL surgery and since I'm recently unemployed this required the shedding of many earthly possessions. But as the narrator in Fight Club mentioned, the things you own end up owning you. Maybe without them I will be more free. You probably won't see more shiba inu facts until he's feeling more like his usual self.

I find it interesting that the initials of Fight Club or FC correspond to Ted Kaczynski's "Freedom Club," the pseudonym under which he tried to justify numerous murders and acts of terrorism to the media. His manifesto was interesting, visionary in many ways, but crucially flawed in its conclusions. He has no justification to support his belief that technology is the root of all human unhappiness, other than the fact that he just didn't like other people.

Personally, I still believe technology can be used for the good of mankind.

thanks and / or sorry for letting me test the guestbook rollback censor. I probably shouldn't do this but I'm childish and I hate to lose.

Fresh up in the deprecated section is a turbo HD remix of sillyputty. This was the original concept for the guestbook page, but built within the constraints of the web of 2004. With no HTML canvas or socket support in Firefox 1.0, things were much more limited in terms of functionality. The remastered version brings modern capabilities to the original concept and ditches the SQL injection vulnerabilities.

Just turn off for awhile and see what happens. If you do feel the urge to check in, make sure it is to do something meaningful. Don't just let yourself fall passively into the void that is consuming today's internet.

Freshly added is a DMCA Policy for the site. Personally I have issues with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, particularly Section 512, but this site complies with it.

More broadly, copyright law in the U.S. has a ton of problems (and even more in Europe), but it needs reform, not some kind of anarchic overthrow. Copyright is the glue that holds Free Software together and makes copyleft licenses like The GNU General Public License enforceable.

I might have more to say at some point in the future, but I've already gone toe-to-toe with copyright lobbyists in a past life, and those people are brutal. For now I'm going to limit the number of beehives I kick.

It seems like I finally have to #launch this. I've had the pieces in place for awhile but I've been afraid to take the plunge. Superficially I fear rejection, but really my mask has protected me against that since learning how to use the false ego as a teenager.

More significantly, I'm afraid of how this changes me, the progression from a thought to a statement, a statement that cannot be taken back. Even if it goes into a void (which would be fine), just the act of having made the statement will solidify certain thoughts into beliefs. And those beliefs will not be congruent with my IRL persona or the ethics of how I pay my bills. I will lose that part of myself, and probably my job.

So what replaces that? A new set of ethics only goes so far. What kind of person will I become? Will I be happy? Will I carve out a new life for myself? Or will I descend further into neuroses, isolation, and the uglier parts of my mind.

Guess there's only one way to find out, #yolo #lol

Mass Effect 3 should have ended the split second before Shepard was able to activate the console in the room with the Illusive Man. It would have been much more dramatic and satisfying than the events that followed.

Also, regarding the updated ending where EA gave two extra middle fingers to players who were rightfully butt-hurt about the original ending—this was an insult and should not have been released.

I would have been happier seeing all of Shepard's efforts being in vain than this bizarre attempt to make his or her decisions matter with a color selector.

What if Twitter encouraged meaningful discourse rather than sound bites and self-promotion? That was my question back in 2009.

My fear at the time was that Twitter would have a negative impact on society by leading people away from nuanced discussion. Subjects that are worth talking about just can't be fleshed out with such a tiny character limit. Much like a JPEG degrading as it gets re-shared and compressed over and over, Twitter's format crushes a conversation's depth, ambiguity, and granularity, leaving us with little more than the rhetorical version of a fart.

Of course that was well before the hate mobs, the incessant flame wars between "libtards" and "nazis," and the unbelievable level of corporate and government mass surveillance that we enjoy today.

Now, a decade later, the original question still stands, and a corollary: could a social media company succeed by behaving in an ethical manner, fostering real bonds between human beings? #first #yolo
