Redid Hye-rin's machine and livery, Day Star, on Assetto Corsa. I wasn't fully satisfied with the old version so I spent a while working on a new one. Full gallery: tempest.nekoweb.org/misc/livery/... #assettocorsa #BuildTuneRace #BT-R

I had time on my break between classes today, so another +1300 and Chapter 40/Interlude 3-1 are pretty close to drafted. The inspiration just keeps on hitting #BT-R #BuildTuneRace #writing

So in essence, you have two choices. Crawling through dozens of crappy SEO optimized blog posts written by untrained/unskilled people for $10/hour. or The Machine. Finding what you need is what's fundamentally broken. Not just what you search with.

People have been typing whole questions into Google before ChatGPT. You were hoping to find a video, some forum post or some other site that mostly asked the same question AND had your response. Now you just have the Machine that Crawls Sites and Tells You (May Make Mistakes). Illusiory convenience.

Tempest 🗲🟊 @tempest-sap.bsky.social · 26/08/2026
I don't disagree with the idea that we shouldn't be asking ChatGPT questions. But don't say "Why don't people just Google shit." Before 'LLM', the three letters of the Devil were 'SEO'. It stands for "the biggest obstacle to everyone whose question can't be answered by a dictionary/Wikipedia check."

Cohost did one thing better than most platforms. Minimizing counters meant it was easier to just post judgment-free and be weird in your own corner. Even friendly private spaces are merciless to the 'weird' or anyone who is neither a full time creator or passivr audience.

Tempest 🗲🟊 @tempest-sap.bsky.social · 18/08/2026
I still miss cohost. I thought I could escape the fresh hell of competing for attention that I associate with social media by just going on Discord more. But Discord isn't safe from content creator-brained people. Servers that are dominated by them have their culture defined by them.

Posting like this is just screaming at the void. It's one of the reasons I don't do social media usually. And yet I still half expect the void to reply. Yknow. Because what *if* right? What *if* something came out the woodwork to change my life?

Sitting in this parking lot between two clients. It's 11.26 in the morning and I realize now I've been running on pure spite since I woke up. At 6.00 am. No coffee, no breakfast, barely feel hungry. Just spite and a vague STALKER-esque feeling of dread.

Not to be negative on purpose, but the reason I block brands when they follow me or like my posts is simple I want to see friends or people interested in my #writing or my stuff, not some un-person account that uses likes and follows to advertise they have things to sell me Don't be the un-person

i am begging literally everyone: if you post some meme or other from twitter, please do the following: 1. always remember twitter is a right-wing chud platform owned by a right-wing chud 2. take 5 secs to look at the uploader's profile 3. if it's chud content, do not send it to me or acknowledge it

New #BuildTuneRace story! Before we get back to the main story, here's a one-shot set in the United States, ~1 year before chapter 001. There we follow the organization's founder on her way to make connections and legitimize her future motorsport series... archiveofourown.org/works/89089726

There was no need to go after my level of education (or to ignore everything else I've offered). I think you're just antagonistic and looking for an argument. Find better ways to oppose conservatives or their car tastes. Being petulant to people who aren't even your enemies on Bluesky isn't it.

Past a certain speed, it won't matter what you hit, it all becomes lethal. The problem with oversized lifted plagues is how much they worsen your visibility and inflate your confidence at driving to (or above) the speed limit... when you should be slowing DOWN in a vehicle with poor visibility. 2/2

Tempest 🗲🟊 @tempest-sap.bsky.social · 22/06/2026
I think both of you are essentially talking past each other but arguing the same thing... But we're missing the real point here. Nobody's arguing lighter cars aren't at a disadvantage compared to heavier ones, Gen's link says so pretty openly. But it's important not to overstate weight here. 1/2

And just because I can't seem to stop... new livery made just now for #ForzaHorizon6. A Marlboro Man rally inspired livery for the current festival playlist reward, the 1989 Volkswagen Rallye Golf. Goes best with the optional hood, as pictured. Share code is 539 369 356.

So what happened. Why did it take me 6 months? Life, basically. Starting HRT, trying hard and harder to find a job, until I finally land a new position last month (I am now a personal care assistant; long hours and lots of stress but it's satisfying). Still, here we are, and I don't plan to stop.

Hi hi, just a quick update. I'm alive and still working on BT-R, I've just also been getting used to my new job. I'm now a Personal Care Assistant. Involves a lot of driving and strange hours. There are many evenings with no energy to do much let alone write. But I am OK and taking to it well.
