The replies you are getting are not random people. They are not a statistical sampling of the audience.

They are aggressive deranged participants in harassment who are either bots using it to cloak themselves as human, a hired bot network, or just genuinely universal malcontents who hate ice cream.

Perhaps @franzanth.bsky.social will appreciate the fact that the new Tamagotchi has a giant isopod character to raise:

You might think that you don't matter in this world, but because of you,

someone has a favorite mug to drink their tea out of that you bought them. Someone hears a song on the radio, and it reminds them of you. Someone has read a book you recommended to them and gotten lost in its pages. Someone's remembered a joke you told them and smiled to themselves on the bus.

Never think you don't have an impact.

Your fingerprints can't be wiped away from the little marks of kindness that you've left behind.

the lengths i would go to for a bit. Horatio & Lazarus Habeas-Corpus, aka the "Body Bros." shout out to @pixelseph.newgrounds.com @paradiddlesjosh.newgrounds.com and @zackparrish.bsky.social for the idea

pixel art of Horatio and Lazarus Habeas-Corpus, with red bloody text that says "BODY BROS". Horatio is wearing a silver trenchcoat, rimless glasses, and a sherlock holmes hat. He is holding a magnifying glass. Lazarus is wearing an open vest with no shirt underneath. he is holding a gun in his left hand.

I truly think the Games Industry would be in a much better place, creatively, if everyone had more exposure to DOS Shareware games.

doin some unguided research. i love love the anthropologically phrased description of "being online" from the early 00s (text from Rene T. A. Lysloff's "Musical Community on the Internet:
An On-line Ethnography", 2003)

Even though my Internet fieldwork seemed, in the realm of embodied sensation,
a rather solitary experience, it was still no less intensely social.
Although I conducted my research without ever leaving my home, my work
involved immersing myself in a new musical community, but with informants I
would never actually meet face-to-face, people whose presence I could only
infer from their textual messages. I wondered whether what I was doing really
was fieldwork because I never had to go anywhere physically, never had to
make demands on my body or endure the tangible hazards that field researchers
routinely face. Instead, fieldwork meant spending many late nights in
front of my computer, "traveling" the far corners of cyberspace.

homie said fuck genai

a snippet from Rene T. A. Lysloff's 2003 "Musical Community on the Internet: An On-line Ethnography" that reads as follows:
However, despite the fact that we may be experiencing radically new forms of social interaction as a result of media technologies, the quality of these social interactions still depends on the humans that give rise to them (see Escobar 1999).

i was a hyper-competitive perfectionist lil' shit whose biggest dream was to be a child prodigy. my kid takes it easy and goes at his own pace. it confuses and confounds me, but it's clear i need to learn from him about this
