increasingly feeling like the biggest bullet i’ve ever dodged in my life was pivoting from my web development career in 2023

I’m glad to see people protesting Discord forcing IDs for age verification, but what I need everyone to understand is that there’s immense bipartisan pressure to make the entire internet like this, and they are likely going to succeed unless something drastic happens

just finished listening through both of them and am happy to provide a ringing endorsement; pick these up while you can!

A friend in Gaza is short rent and at risk of losing his housing, and we're trying to push his fundraiser hard right now as a result. Please consider sending him some cash or sharing it around, thanks <3 spot.fund/138vcfddc

I have been told that this undercover ICE agent tried to get observers to scan a QR code “for his website”. The QR code did not resolve to a link. DO NOT SCAN UNKNOWN QR CODES FROM STRANGERS. This is a massive security risk! Bad things can happen to you if you do it! Stay frosty, friends.

Duckduckgo has a survey for pro/anti-AI and I cackled so hard at the (current) results https://voteyesornoai.com

if you havent cancelled spotify yet and this isnt the final nail in the coffin for you, i really dont know what else to say other than i hope some introspection finds you soon

Abolish ICE. A little journal comic from South Minneapolis. #iceoutmpls #iceoutcomics #iceoutofmpls

As someone who likes to support artists on Bandcamp, this just made my morning.

my only sappy thing to say about GDQ is that the last however many years have tried their best to convince the world that ppl like me should not exist and sometimes you wonder if we really are on a downfall but GDQ comes around saying trans rights all day all week raising millions and millions

IBM's "A computer can never be held accountable, therefore a computer must never make a management decision" was from 1979. That was 47 years ago. That was before AOL, the Macarena, and Google. Half a century ago it was considered obvious that CEO's would deflect blame from themselves onto "AI"

I hope this year is filled with many moments I'm glad to be alive for.

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

"Oh my godddd okay so you don't like genAI because it steals from artists, makes processes slower, creates more work for underpaid employees, is supported by data centers that are poisoning Black communities, doesn't even look good, and no one asked for it, but do you have to be so MEAN about it"

i haven’t touched photoshop since cs2. i know where every tool is in gimp and can wrangle a lot of capability out of it. whenever i use affinity photo it takes me about a quarter as much time to get whatever i needed done, and that’s without the familiarity. don’t recommend gimp to professionals.

My partner @little-bat.rocks also released a new song today! I really like it- I'm biased though (I did some production, backing vox and guitars on it c:) little-bat.bandcamp.com/track/shadows

My new song "Faltering Stair" is out now! Happy #bandcampfriday :) voidfemmes.bandcamp.com/track/falter...

With a new single release on simmer, I also want to take a moment to shamelessly promote my alternative rock band Waxlimbs. We have a tonne of music I'm so proud of, and it's all on bandcamp: https://waxlimbs.bandcamp.com/ #bandcampfriday

For reasons too complex to explain here, I wrote an Apple II program designed for Early Modern Age Catholics to determine if they're allowed to have sex with their wife, or if it'd be a sin. Here's the video of it running.

I think Bluesky could still be saved. Won't be, but could. They should hire me as Head of Comms. I could fix her (Jay) azhdarchid.com/jay-graber-c...

looking into the article, important part to it is this was initiated by italian unions, making it possible to organize such action at all. which reinforces for what and why such union restrictions exist in america. keeping labor down doesn't just generate wealth, it also suppresses other movements.

It’s so annoying that we all have to just continually point out how rules around/between decorum and violation are applied asymmetrically to vulnerable groups versus the people who are always hassling them, and it’s extra insulting that the people in charge are trying to lol it away.

It's Bandcamp Friday! Things are hard right now but if you're perusing, my records are real fun :) waxlimbs.bandcamp.com voidfemmes.bandcamp.com

new post: my partner's website, formally revealing my self-hosted microblog, and other glimpses into what i've been up to and what comes next algometric.pink/recap-summer...

After tens of thousands of streams, we’re leaving Spotify. Here’s why. Thank you and we love you. (IG has the full text in caption)

Does anyone else notice a thing where someone's like "yeah I've had the weirdest random illness all week, it's just like—" and then they describe exactly the symptoms of COVID-19

Much of the time, as a musician I feel like my work isn't valued beyond base-level entertainment or that it doesn't have any impact. Sometimes I am proven wrong in the most spectacular ways. This site has made me so emotional. oneirocrite.neocities.org/shrines/wl/ all drawings by oneirocrite

reminder that Disney+ has still been on the Palestinian BDS boycott list for over a year. You should continue the pressure and continue withholding your money from them.

In 2023, a few lucky people saw us perform Hella Good by No Doubt as part of our “From the Garden” concert recording. We cut it from the main release but we've finally released it on YouTube for your viewing pleasure. www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGVA...

i do NOT have the time right now to implement a portion of the activitypub spec and allow people to follow my microblog on fedi. i will NOT be putting other projects aside to make this happen. i will NOT be tempted to reinvent another wheel. yet. i hope.

this site is not twitter 2 its ultimately just a mastodon server but with the worst mods imaginable. we can just all go to mastodon if we all agree which serv-- ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

this is really the app that has all of the people i want to follow but good god damn does it ever fucking suck here. i really need to figure something out

technology used to be cool, but now it’s owned by the worst, most moneysick humans on the planet. but there are transsexual furry hackers out there still fighting the good fight

this is, of course, lying nonsense; bluesky is not meaningfully decentralized, there are no practical atproto alternatives for the vast majority of users, and bluesky's own moderation can and will censor your ability to communicate to most bluesky users either way

Check out this song I wrote with @erincorbett.bsky.social, it's real good voidfemmes.bandcamp.com/track/i-need...

It feels weird for me to “do” bandcamp friday because it’s been a Minute since I last released something, but also my discography is quite good and I think people should listen to it so: waxlimbs.bandcamp.com

'A NSFW ban won't negatively affect me, I don't draw or post porn!' You sure? Here's how it went down when tumblr did it:

The Last Fifteen Minutes is a marionette opera and short film about neighbors choosing to have dinner together fifteen minutes before a giant kaiju eats them. This is a project I'm so excited to make happen, and I hope you will be part of on this journey! www.kickstarter.com/projects/shi...

Our Kickstarter is now live! Help support our film about neighbors still gathering for dinner in a time of unrelenting doom! www.kickstarter.com/projects/shi...
