The last 3 or so weeks have been day after day of maintaining the bare minimum functionality to get through each day. I have so many things that need to get done but every day after I get home from work, it’s basically a nap and then a holding pattern until bed. Not sure how I break out of this.

Love to barely slog through another week of work and then come home to spend my weekend fighting the urge to vaguely want to die rather than resting, relaxing, doing things I enjoy that restore my soul and leave me feeling revitalized for next week 🙃🙃🙃

Calm down, jeez…

Man, Phil can eat an entire dick. I’m so done with this.

My dear friend and ex, Zuri, is facing financial difficulties while waiting for their partner’s disability approval. They just had their car repossessed - a necessary lifeline for two disabled folks in the snowy north. If you can help, please do! Even sharing is something! gofund.me/fe699be1f

Boss had one of the other drivers mass text us (because he didn’t have our number - yeah, that tracks 🙄) that the vans are staying off the road so we’re not working tomorrow. Yeah no shit, you idiot. I wasn’t coming in anyway nor was anyone with half a brain.

and an additional fuck you to everyone who said we were overreacting during the patriot act and creation of DHS.

lol

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

The funny thing is if his approval rating went up ten points he’d still be underwater in every demographic but the MAGA cult.

the Babylon Bee Managing Editor is Sephiroth posting. Is that a good sign for the fascist movement

Bless Bolsonaro & his fans who in this world of horrors and no consequences give us weekly headlines about the worst people in Brazil giving themselves real Tom & Jerry ailments

Just returned from a 3pm mid-storm shovel session because if we waited until tomorrow it would have been too much at once. My job may be ass but this coat they provided is toasty warm and weather repellant so that’s a win at least. Stay safe out there, y’all!

Manifesting some vibes this morning in the hopes that IT happens soon.

Just wanted to update that I’m still working on getting that YouTube channel up and running. Last couple weeks have been heavy amounts of mental preparation, sourcing needed materials and making lists of ideas. No hard launch date yet obviously but I would love to get it moving sometime next month.

8,000 feels low, those are rookie numbers

Currently: Sitting in a parking lot in the snow. Having a Lords of the New Church sorta day today.

San Diego Comic-Con will no longer allow AI 'art' to be displayed at their event "Material created by AI either partially or wholly, is not allowed in the art show" This follows backlash from artists after SDCC initially indicated AI-generated work would be permitted

this is like the wargames nerd equivalent of an anarchist feeling patriotic while reading about the Union Army during the Civil War

must've gone to the same doctor as andy ngo after he got hit by that milkshake, lmao.

99% chance this is what they mean

RT if you've never had a tab of ChatGPT open 'just to do quick research'

nice 😎 “Music and audio that is generated wholly or in substantial part by AI is not permitted on Bandcamp. Any use of AI tools to impersonate other artists or styles is strictly prohibited in accordance with our existing policies prohibiting impersonation and intellectual property infringement.”

Hell yeah! Well played, Bandcamp.

All the videos of these ICE chuds slipping on real ice and eating shit is giving a very “never invade Russia in the winter” vibe

@johnmcguirerpg.bsky.social @stuhorvath.com Hey guys - just wanted to say that while I hope that your holiday break was good and left you feeling refreshed for the year (minus all the general horrors currently happening), your voices on Monday morning were sorely missed. It’s good to have you back!

It’s all good until the edible hits and then you’re walking around the kitchen repeating “Tony Pepperoni” in some sort of Anthony Kedis-esque cadence for three hours.

How exactly does anyone watch this and see her as a threat? She’s jovial to someone who does NOT deserve it. Also holy shit she could not be trying harder NOT to hit him. Look at how hard she cuts the wheel away! And he doesn’t even drop his phone while he murders her.

There is no Hell hot enough, no torture horrible enough for what these people deserve…

These are the people they are sending into our neighborhoods. Keep that in mind when they mention an "accidental" shooting.

living in this country is like being awake on the table

I likely won’t be appearing on camera as myself in it (yes, I know you’re all disappointed) just for the record. I’ll likely be presenting things in some form of character: either costumed/obscured in some way or maybe as a PNGtuber just because I have no desire to see my own face on the screen. 🤷‍♂️

As 2025 winds down, I wanted to ask a favor of y’all. In 2026 I plan to start a YouTube channel focused on TTRPG/tabletop gaming. If you could take a sec to subscribe, that gets me on the road to getting the follower count I need to eventually monetize it. Thanks! youtube.com/@vonnyxgames...

Y’all the chances are EXTREMELY non-zero, just think about that, soak it in

Just making sure that 2025 is definitely over

Happy New Year, y’all. Going to do my level best to be here more this year. I miss people sometimes.

Remember in Texas Chainsaw Massacre when the family is trying to get the barely conscious, half-dead elderly patriarch to hit the girl over the head with the mallet but he no longer has the strength to hold it? That’s Trump.

We’re all getting old… this sucks man. Ugh :( RIP

Happy Seasonal Winter Holiday of Choice, y’all. Hope you’re all doing okay out there and had as good a time as possible given the circumstances. 🖤

Proof of life photo since it’s been a hot minute, I guess. I hate that I keep forgetting to post here because every time I open this app, I remember what Twitter used to be like and I get sad. Lotta plans in the hopper for next year though. Hope you’re all doing okay. Miss you.

And if they don’t - wow, that’s great for you! You’re going to leave your competition in the dust. “Don’t be stuck in the past,” Or what, Good Samaritan? Why are you so concerned for me? Won’t you benefit if I falter and stumble into the dust bin of history?

If devs are *licensing* their own tech, sure. But a dev saying “if you don’t use bump mapping / IK / Source Engine you’re a Luddite / stuck in the past / etc.” - why would they care? IME if someone uses tech that has self-evident value, people scramble to adopt it.

I’ve been in game dev for 26 years and I can’t remember any other time where a specific tech was being insistently and persistently pushed on devs as a group in the public sphere. Why would it? Cui bono? Why would any given dev have an interest in other devs using tech they don’t have a stake in?
