Hi there! I'm KB or Alex. I play a lot of video games (mostly FFXIV for the last three years, but also some other stuff). I read a good deal, mostly fantasy and sci-fi. My music tastes are eclectic and mostly instrumental. I'm Irish/Greek, was raised in Africa, and currently live in Dublin.

Device…hoarding. Because you don’t go get a new one while yours is still fine.
Apparently I am also practicing car hoarding, house hoarding, husband hoarding, dog hoarding, computer hoarding, furniture hoarding and art hoarding.

There is no way you can guess how the thread that ends in this instant classic begins.
The damned in hell are not more powerful for the fact that the fires do not consume them; it is part and parcel of their torment.

Celtic Utopia, which just won awards at Leeds & Cork Film Fests, is coming to Dublin.
For me, it's a vital document of 2025 Ireland, showing a generation doggedly opposed to both Church and State as they struggle to build something new, hopefully better.

Are we not even making our own disinformation? What happened to American manufacturing?
Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.
My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.
