I'd love to figure out some way to offer tangible real world objects in exchange for a small amount of coin. 'Merch', if you will.
I just have ZERO idea where to start. Or who would even buy it.

Game devs: if you have a tutorial in your game, please please PLEASE do not make it a mandatory piece of the game.
Mandatory tutorials only hurt replayability, and alienate ppl that just like to figure out out themselves.

Now, more than ever, lessons learned in the 1770s and 1860s seem extremely valid.
It's 7 counts of treason to teach the Declaration of Independence, yanno? Treason. How crazy is that?
Interesting stuff, though. Verily.

It's been nearly 9 years since my wife died. In that time, I've grown a lot. I sometimes wonder if she'd be proud; if we'd still be compatible today.
I then wondered if I did it right? Could I have been better, being the me that I was then?
I with she could tell me. Just to know, I'd burn all

Why don't the 'war on language' nincompoops actually put their effort behind something useful, for once?
There is no such thing as 'ai', today.
We can't even build a convincing 'vi'.
LLMs, NLMs, MLMs are not intelligences. Period.

I don't ever want to be a creator that does subathons. Posts donation links in public. Begs for coin.

New words to add to the block list, for those of you keeping track
'tryna' (pronounced trih-nuh, not trai-nah, obv)
'prolly' (no explanation needed, I'm sure)
I notice a very distinct pattern of post style related to these nonsense words, that I do not desire to interact with.

@bsky.app I wonder how many blocked pages and 'hide this for me's before the algorithm stops pushing communism and politics at large to my feed?
Some tweaking necessary? I'd really hate to have to chalk bsky up as 'just another FB' knockoff, but it's starting to shape up that way, I think.

Funny story: it annoys me to no end when ppl try to talk about 'morals ' and/or 'ethics '.
Your morals are provided to you by your society, religion, and/or parents.
What is 'right' or 'good' to you, might not be those things to someone else.
The ONLY true ethic is: Don't hurt others.
