Oh, it’s Bandcamp Friday, I should promote something. I put out a little… single? EP? song suite? a few months ago. It was an attempt to process some grief and some feelings of helplessness during illness. Without wanting to be too gloopy about it. It’s got guitars.

Pete is lost in terms of modern war. I use the example of this outgunned Ukrainian army officer who successfully terrorized a Russian unit for weeks because she "did the math." At the time, someone commented, "yeah, in combat, 'I did the math' beats 'I can do 100 pushups' every time."
Ukrainian female soldier: Okay, I said the idea is this: There is enough time to empty one full can of 32 grenades and be gone by the time the return mortar fire reaches us. I did the math.

I still can't get over that they're effectively asking the Pope and other figures to endorse enslavement of a conscious being of moral standing.

When, four weeks from now, this does not happen, some reporter will ask about it and Trump will just start insulting them. None of the other reporters in the room will object as he does so.

It's funny that for years now people have been saying that using generative AI very obviously deskills you, and people kept going no no you're wrong you Luddite And now all the genAI CEO's keep coming out in public to announce they forgot how to read and do math and can't remember their address etc

Of all the cursed sentences that have ever passed through my retinas to my poor beleaguered frontal lobe, “Sam Altman used to date Peter Thiel” is surely among the most potent.

"This book made me feel bad" is real, your feelings are real, but its not necessarily because the author has done something wrong. Competing needs are a thing, some people need things that are antithetical to what others need. Someone needing what you don't like is nt a reason to completely dehinge.

“Enjoy the brain damage” is kind of like “enjoy the camps,” they’re both naked expressions of a desire for harm that tell you the person on the other end of the convo has something wrong in their heart.

Anyway I did get it for Xmas and it was a pretty fun game! I certainly played the fuck out of it, the way 90s kids did when you had, like, 8 games in your library. I remained pretty miserable for the next 2-3 years, although pre-Uniracers was the nadir, so maybe it really did help.
030
Mikey Says Hey! @erlking.bsky.social · 21/09/2026
Also Uniracers is a wild choice, but I was desperately unhappy in Grade 8, probably the most miserable year of my life, and I somehow convinced myself that if I got the Uniracers SNES cartridge for Christmas I would be OK. I don’t know how or why I reached that strange conclusion.

“No Hades?!” While I do a speedy Hades run every morning the way some people do a crossword, I don’t know if I’d say the game “shaped” me. Shaped my reflexes maybe?

Man, I tried to do this. Confidently slotted Chrono Trigger, then searched for Celeste. Not found. Journey? Not found. Oh, no indies maybe. Mass Effect: not found. Only older games…? “Donkey”: nope. Site is broken? “Mario”: so many results! Including newer ones! So idk wtf is up.
