Made lunch! Curry chicken stir fry. #food #meat #cooking #stirfry #noodles

Level with me: is #peertube worth touching? I cannot tell if the usage is extremely low or if the federation just doesn't work, so it looks like usage is extremely low, but neither makes me excited for the platform. I want something I can #selfhost for my streams and videos, but I *do* want […]

Oh hey, how's that Steam version of Princess Maker anyhow? As a kid with no money I grabbed the leaked version but didn't get super far. Was my first Raising Sim, and they certainly take some getting used to. Long Live The Queen is probably my fav raising sim; at least the constant failure is […]

What's the usual #anime consensus on "historical accuracy"? So #HellsParadise is edo period and about as serious as Shonen gets, but I have caught several English loanwords so far. To their credit, both uses of "byebye!" were hilarious.

I'll trust that AI is improving Windows when the 10-year-old HDR screenshot bug goes away. Every screenshot on Windows with HDR is unusably washed out. But it isn't an AI nor a user-tracking feature, so it will never be touched again.

Duck Detective is so mean😭 #duckdetective #gaming #videogames #mobilegaming

Anti-democrat weirdo uses nazi-funded substack, lol. 🙄 A substack is an instant block from me.

I think "culture war" is my least favorite political term. On it's face, it's bizarre; essentially every real war in history could be called a "culture war". Culture is what causes wars. Taking it as intended, it seems designed to conflate "demmy-crats banned my plastic straws" and […]

Is there still no good word for "offbeat" or experimental games? Briefly #altgames was a thing but it came and went. I struggle to quickly express the sort of stuff I like to showcase. I am talking about stuff like Space Funeral, EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE OKAY, "walking sims", the only […]

It is fascinating to have lived from the era where teenagers were regularly sued by the MPAA for millions of dollars for downloading 10 Limp Bizkit MP3s and to the era where sucking up all possible copyrighted information is the hot new business model

Oh, nice! Yeah, yeah, you won't catch 'em all, but with YT tagging them, it should be trivial to cull all labeled AI videos with a browser extension. https://arstechnica.com/google/2026/05/youtube-to-begin-automatically-labeling-ai-videos/

Do any #megaman games let you play as Roll aside from Powered Up? I feel like IntiCreates was the first/only developer to realize playable girls could happen in Mega Man. Can't recommend their games enough, MM Zero, ZX, Gunvolt, and even Mighty Gunvolt are all top shelf IMO. ...aside from the […]

Also, is it just me, or is Mu Dan totally a Thneed? #HellsParadise #anime

#HellsParadise OP 2 disappoints me a little; the visuals are great, but the song is just okay. The first OP is a real banger. I am up to episode 20; I cannot wait to see these plant freaks eat it. OP 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04WuoQMhhxw OP 2 […]

Detectives These Days Are Crazy is so good. The manga is different enough from the show I enjoy reading both, trying not to buy too many manga at once though. #anime #manga

Does the #manga for #mashle ever get into what Lemon's personal magic is? Pretty sure it never showed up in the #anime. Great show, but it is a really stark example of a writer going "I don't even know what a woman is tbh". The best-written female character in the show is the unnamed(?) […]

TIL there is a unicode for joystick, and it, uh, does not look quite like a joystick at average font size 🕹.

Nice argument However: ⥁ + P

I have not heard about any "big youtubers" (weird right-wingers with fans, for some reason) in months and it really proves I am cutting all the right things out of my internet diet. I still can't believe that guy who was famous for cheating in minecraft "speedruns" and being a general cunt […]

Lunch. Moo Shu pork bowls, extra pork, regular moo shu. And a couple pitas. #homecooking #cooking #food #meat

I have also been enjoying #Kujima: Why Sing When You Can Warble? Kujima is a "new species of bird" that came from Russia and talks. Seeing everyone's first reaction to Kujima is delightful, as instead of acting like anime characters, they act how one might […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

Depressing stuff out of the way, I started #witchhatatelier last night; the animation is gorgeous! My favorite anime this year that isn't focused on comedy or combat. The pink haired girl is my favorite (no surprises there). #とんがり帽子のアトリエ #anime #tv #nowwatching

[Sexual Harassment] So this will be long and not particularly pleasant. My first real experiments with gender expression were playing MMOs openly as a girl; I was around 15. I have never told anyone before now, but just a few months or maybe a year into this, I met a person in a guild, and we […]

One of the biggest security and privacy wins you can get anymore is avoiding any corporate entity, period. The AI bubble hasn't yet ruined the price of cheap virtual private servers; you'd be surprised how easy it is to get your own chat, your own social network, etc., going on. #fediverse […]

Everyone praises #duckduckgo after abandoning Google, but I get more AI slop in my results than ever when using them. Almost glad to have stopped writing for my website, finding things seems increasingly impossible now. Is there a browser or search engine that aggressively blacklists sites […]

Had a bit of a bad day, so I am writing some of the most self-indulgent shit possible with the full intent of publishing it at some point. I recommend it.

So I've got a story that more or less necessitates a little Japanese, mostly anime subculture stuff. Not sure the least bad way to do that in pure text for an English audience. My current best idea is transliterating everything in actual dialog and explaining the term upon first use in text […]

I know I'm Baby and all, but I am using #libreoffice Writer, and when I start typing there is a very noticeable lag before the first letter starts appearing sometimes. It is driving me insane. Is it fixable? Disabling spellcheck didn't help; I was sure it was that, but no.

Ugh, in too shitty a mood to write (much) but I got a fun idea for something short. I always kinda wanted to write a light novel. I might actually be able to afford the art to make one, definitely couldn't do a manga.

RE: https://cyberplace.social/@GossiTheDog/116641322942986829 One of the most notable things about every "big corporation uses AI" post is that it looks FUCKING. TERRIBLE. There is simply no defense for AI. It costs billions to create shit. Even a billion dollar corporation with thousands of […]

"Save our women and children" from asylum seekers, they said. And yet again, it was projection. They hunt what they see in the mirror. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Hey Australian friends, please sign this petition, I'd hate to loose my legal identity because of some bigots. https://track.equalityaustralia.org.au/-/m/view-online?k=EWVxdWFsaXR5YXVzdHJhbGlhAGbWph4bYxzNzc0AEGoVLDSihm1sN3t6NxGtDGbfxrnhOuCfk1bWUA&rg=au cc @aussocialadmin #lgbtq […]

No more Big Tech. Only Small Tech. (That's us, people. Remember people? They can be alright, in small doses.)

If you use AI, do both of us a favor and talk to an AI instead of me.

Never trust that people unwilling to vote are going to violently rise up. You wouldn't expect someone too lazy to put their trash in a garbage bin to clean out a landfill. I have less than no respect for anti-voting "leftists".

Great serious #anime still know where to slip in the jokes. Loved the bit in #HellsParadise where Tamiya falls to his knees in heartbreak when the attractive young woman reverts to a loli (standard anime stuff). Tamiya's great, such an earnest guy. I love how they slip it in as a post-credits […]

AI has surfaced a lot of truly bizarre behaviors in people. One of the most inexcusable and baffling is the person who not just posts an AI response in a social media thread (already unforgivable), but *admits* "hey this is ai". ...so don't post it??? It's like walking into a doctor's office […]

I have two otherwise fine phones that are unusable in practice due to dead lithium ion batteries, a Pixel XL and a Pixel 4a. Is there any way to have them repaired for a price that makes sense over buying a new device? Looks like ~$100 each for a repair and that's, what, 4-6 years of life max? […]

Stop using Spotify; literally just pirate stuff and buy something on Bandcamp or toss money at someone's Patreon or something. Piracy is less harmful than 'publishers', especially in the music industry. They only people making money off Spotify don't need it.

Hell's Paradise update: Season 2 has a Big Lady 7'0"!!!! Watch Hell's Paradise. #Hellsparadise #anime #BigLady

What's your favorite series you never buy at release? I love a good Resident Evil game, but I've never seen a Resi *not* hit $20 within a year or two; I can wait. #gaming #videogames #games

When did "electrified vehicles" start being the term? To my brain "electric" is a thing that runs on electricity, and "electrified" is something I have unsafely attached both ends of a car battery to.

Spent 10 minutes fighting the invincible "you're not supposed to fight me yet" boss again. #PRAGMATA #gaming #videogames

Gonna start streaming again. Catch me at https://twitch.tv/thezeldazone I will explore self-hosted streaming soon, maybe Peertube? But I am not in the mood to computers right now.

Richard Dawkins is stupider than my cats. My cat's toys move and are designed to be lifelike, but my cats clearly understand they are not alive. Richard Dawkins' toy composes text in a way designed to be lifelike, and he thinks it is alive. Bro is dumber than my cats. My cats, I am sorry to […]
