"Oh my f*cking god Carol!" Pluribus is challenging the notion that protagonist have to be likable. It's interesting and I'm just glad something breaks away from formula and is bringing something for us all to talk about, be challenged and even annoyed by and most of all be glad we're not Carol.

last week i remembered that macOS lets you set your own icons and that *I* have the power to delegitimize the professionalism of the software that runs on my machine, so here's a thread of the 16 new icons i've made so far

i really forgot how fun it was to just sit down and make art for myself :')

This video has a lot of analysis and information about our addiction to screens and some tools and plugins to work around the algorithms. Why not hack our feeds to be simple search bars again where we can engage with content with intention. How can we reclaim the internet?

It's probably the content I started engaging with on YouTube that gave me a lot of really interesting video essays on the analysis of our streaming and screen addicted culture. Here's an interesting video that also has some work around/tools: www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkwQ...

Interesting analysis of capitalism, the audience with their parasocial relationships they form with the artist and how once you get fame it never feels like you've reached the top and the side effects of running in the hamster wheel of pursuing fame. Who are we creating for and why?

We need a global initiative to directly fight against the The Heritage Foundation. We have to connect and utilize resources to directly take them on. They'll use immigration to get people to fear each other then vote their candidates in and intact their Project 2025 for Europe. 1/2

i thought i didn't have anything to say but then i started reading a bunch of early internet manifestos from the 90's and then i guess pairing 1995 Hackers together with altgames kinda made sense in the end :D

I keep thinking about how the actors and everyone decided that Neil Gaiman's behavior was just so horrific that they all could no longer participate in anything he had an part in creating anymore.

Why can't games do the same thing?

"What we can be doing is rebuilding spaces where anger is channeled into community, into innovation, into art and a love of something instead of just a hate of something."
This is by far one of the most profound video essays on our current situation and how we got there and about the early 2000s and how class consciousness is our solution. www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKev...
