Your mom is never going to believe you up until you literally leave. If she blames you, don't come back. If she blames Uncle Ted, she will make sure he shuts the fuck up because the person who only visits on holidays just left because of him. It's your only power

I know it’s easy to look at one off examples as niche, or frivolous, or expected glitches in such big systems, but this is the inevitable outcome of a small number of private, for profit platforms controlling massive amounts of our culture. They can ruin you for any reason or none at all.
Q: "What exactly is Steam policy on mature content?"
A: "Nobody really knows. It's important to note that HORSES' ban has nothing to do with the recent restriction on adult content pushed by payment processors; this decision was solely in the hands of Steam's curatorial team."

Our upcoming game HORSES was preemptively banned from Steam, with no path to appeal. The game will still launch next week on December 2nd and will be available on EGS, GOG, Humble, and Itch for $4.99. Here is a detailed FAQ covering what happened: horses.wtf/BannedFromSt...

Hey, weird life hack for my fellow artists:
Turns out sleep is really good at getting rid of that weird permanent headache you've got for the past couple days.
It's weird, and it sounded fake at first, but going to bed BEFORE sunrise seems to have done the trick for me

I think more than anything else AI feels like a miracle to people with questionable literacy because it can read and write for you, and a lot of us who are highly literate underestimate how many of our society's leaders, esp in business, struggle with literacy.
It's pretty much mandatory at work that I appear to be using it, so I've doe a few functional things with it, and it's a moderate time-saver if used right. But nowhere near worth it's stock value, energy cost.
Then I realize there's a lot of people who simply can't write coherent paragraphs.

Today, in Utah, homeowners *or renters* can simply buy a solar panel at Costco, take it home, and plug it in to a wall socket, like an appliance. It just sits there & trims about 15-20% off a residential power bill. If you move to another apt., you can take it with you.

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.
We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."
