Stream over! I made a lot of progress on my capital h's and had some really good conversations about TTRPGs and philosophical pessimism with @rgnoire.bsky.social and @mikksu.bsky.social. Thank you chosengiraffe and @bibingkabear.bsky.social for the raids!

The only one who is trying to stop me from streaming is my sleep schedule, and they're losing. www.twitch.tv/almantasvt

Gonna disagree with Evans here a little bit: Yud's writing style is hyperbolic because his ideas are so boring. They're not absurd because they're novel, they're absurd because they're trivially wrong, and Yud tries to hide that by refusing to write in a clear, confident manner.

EA is fascinating as an example of "why your philosophy SHOULDN'T exist entirely in one bureaucracy." Some pyramid climbers will take off your mission and turn into an excuse to loot everything or, at best, burn down the house in the name of their asinine pet project.

I removed yesterday's VOD because I played AOE on stream because I was inattentive and forgot that it is subject to BDS. Apologies to anybody who was hoping to watch the VOD; if I put it up anywhere in the future I'll likely remove that segment.

Hey everyone, here's a real simple way to disable "Super Resolution" on your channels: • YouTube Studio • Settings • Channel • Advanced settings • Uncheck "Let YouTube enhance visual quality" • Uncheck "Let YouTube enhance audio quality"

for some reason back in 2017, I decided to make a website to make fake video game screenshots. This was a good idea and made a lot of people laugh. Here's to the Death Generator, eight years and 270ish games later! deathgenerator.com

Tonight! 8pm US Eastern! This is a book club @bodegarat.bsky.social and I have been excited about for months - Octopus Pie is the cream of the webcomic crop, and I fear mostly that one session will cover only a fraction of what we want to discuss.

And I'm live! twitch.tv/almantasvt Going to chat and such and then do something cozy with my time.

Ten games to get to know me!

The Japanese Mario 64 official strategy guide is an incredible thing. "Can we make little hand-made dioramas of all the levels?" "Sure, why the hell not."

Video: a Japanese scientist was attacked by flies while giving the acceptance speech for his Ig Nobel Prize-winning research paper that proved painting Zebra-like stripes on cows led to a decrease in biting fly attacks.

Gonna game tonight because gaming is part of a Balanced Diet but I'm not sure if I should do a city builder, a 4x, hades, or kerbal space program.

Last night, I watched www.youtube.com/watch?v=miJb... and its made me think some thoughts and have some feelings

I like streaming, I like writing. www.twitch.tv/almantasvt

🌕📽WORLD PREMIERE ONLY ON henemimi.tv 🍿🌕 🎀Sunday October 5th @ 1 PM Pacific / 3 PM Eastern☁ 📼A scream queen.... the final girl of your heart... Henemimi....3!!!!!!!!! 🎀☁ NEW MODEL🩸 NEW THINGS‼ Don't be a chicken and miss it!!!! I'm already the chicken!!!🐥

Affiliate is one of the milestones that has really changed my life, and I like to celebrate it with a subathon. I will be running one, with this schedule, through October 20th (the anniversary date). I've got a new model and am very excited to share more of myself with people.

My second anniversary subathon & attendant model debut has started! We are, as of this morning, at 129 subs, and have unlocked 1 new asset and 1 to-be-performed stream. Next stream is 10PM Eastern tonight! I'll be checking out EL2, I've loved the Endless Series so I'm very curious.

The Super Mario 64 source code lists names for Mario's footstep sounds. The list starts off normal but becomes poetic with names like "Footsteps in the Fallen Leaves" and "More Than Anyone Else in the World". It turns out the names are actually taken from a 1994 dating simulator.

IMAGINE THIS COOP THEY CALL THEM "VIRTUAL TUBERS" SOME KIND OF ONLINE ENTERTAINMENT I SUPPOSE. NOT SURE WHAT A TUBE HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT BUT THE KIDS LOVE IT. I SPOTTED ONE THAT LOOKED LIKE A LIVING CARTOON IN MOTION. RIGHT OUT OF ROGER RABBIT. WHAT WILL THEY THINK OF NEXT

Pet parrots which typically live alone (whilst those in the wild live in large flocks) were given the technology to call each other. They would use it for up to three hours a day, and developed favourite friends 💔 on.ft.com/3K05vhS

...suddenly hit me that UChicago's imminent demise means I might have to learn MLA citations.

[ L2D Debut Today @ 6pm ET/11pm BST ] Camus stated, "Fiction is the lie through which we tell the truth." Thank you for your OC entries. After my model debut, I'll be undertaking the tier list. I'll be posting timestamps. See you soon! #VexxingCat | #Debut | #Vtuber

A common refrain of mine: "performative" is a useful term that means nearly the opposite of how its used on social media. Hanson here does a really excellent run down of both what that looks like and why that matters. Some very choice quotes in there too for anybody who loves freedom.

Really fantastic review. It can be a struggle to talk coherently about media that centers hustle-ness into its own aesthetics, but Jackson deftly threads that needle.

I was asked a question the other day and went "hold on, there's a demographic table about this" and went to my bookshelf and in 5 minutes had the numbers out and ready. To call this faster than trying to google it would be an understatement.

This week's schedule! I'm hoping to make progress on a decent looking portfolio for my calligraphy store front.

Happy 4th of July!

The cure for male loneliness is the Human Instrumentality Project.

Wanderhome, for instance, would have been a much worse game if it was so vague that you could run 5e modules in it. Or, conversely, if it was so cozy that you could avoid the implications of violence altogether. Instead, its text walks the line between the two carefully, which informs play.

I don't think it's necessary for you to play a ttrpg's older versions. I didn't play 1-9 Candles but I did alright with 10.

For those unfamiliar: the “brains aren’t fully formed until 25” myth was a misread of a study that measured subjects’ brain dvlpmnt UNTIL age 25 & then the study stopped, & it was misreported as development ending then when really the DATA ends then & past 25 we have no data yet. Misreported science

So just in case anybody following me is considering going back to school anytime soon, if a university suddenly cuts multiple of its departments very quickly, *don't go there,* that's generally a sign of a (rapidly) dying institution.
