I shouldn't have done this. I'm going to hit a point where something breaks and
I don't know how to fix it and I won't have time. I should have commissioned
this work from the start.

Not calling anyone out, but I think streamers need to be more direct in
discouraging shoutout clips. And if you're doing them, strongly consider getting
rid of them. Too much risk in assuming permission to share a random clip that
may not fit your stream or the person you're calling attention to.

Through the power of the internet, I found the model names of two CRTs that were
in my bedroom as a kid: the Hitachi CT1342, and Teknika MJ-22, both from around
1985. I don't know what to do with this information, but for whatever reason
it's helping me through a rough time right now.

Threads is worse than Twitter in the sense that it's structured to hide climate
content, which is why I get a fraction of the engagement over there. The
decision to downgrade political content is itself a political one, and one that
overwhelmingly benefits bad actors.

I’ve come around to the idea that Threads/Facebook/Instagram is worse than
Twitter. Remember, Meta considers climate to be political.

First look: Meta won't recommend political content on Threads
Meta is laying out the details of its policy.

When I can't sleep I think about messed up cartoons I watched growing up and now
can't remember if they were real or a fever dream. This time it's
"Sh-h-h-h-h-h", a 1955 Tex Avery cartoon (his last) about a doctor & nurse who
torment their patient until he explodes. www.youtube.com/watch?v=9w0Q...
www.youtube.com
SH-H-H-H-H-H
Sh-h-h-h-h-h (1955) - Another of my favorite Walter Lantz cartoons, this one
directed by Tex Avery. This was Tex's last theatrical cartoon. The soundtrack
used is from "The Okeh Laughing Record" from 1923 - a hilarious yet disturbing
recording. (If you'd like a copy of the "Laughing Record", you can download an
MP3 copy of the original 78rpm recording for free here:
http://www.archive.org/download/Okeh/Okeh-OkehLaughingRecord.mp3 ) A
mild-mannered man whose nerves are shot from incessant noise is sent to an
exclusive, silent retreat with hilarious results. Poor fellow.

It's hard to tell if cartoonists had something deeper to say or if human
suffering was just a lot funnier back then.

Lots of folks worried that opening Bluesky would bring in too many Twitter users
don't give yourselves enough credit for how toxic this place already was. It's
not the platform. The format sucks and will always suck.

I was only dimly aware of the Larry David choking out Elmo thing but I didn't

I've been guilty of this myself but a lot of folks here spend a lot of time
reposting screenshots from the other site and that kind of defeats the purpose

I'm sorry for being quiet or distant but I haven't been able to sit/stand/lie

Lot of streamers I watch have been taking donos for PCRF and I've been giving.
After questionable allegations and gutless overreactions around UNRWA, it may
all be for nothing. They simply want Palestine gone at all costs. I am sick to
live in the US. I am sick to live in this world.

It sounds corny, but I've heard similar from artists: after years of fumbling
and sketching and practicing, the first time you take something from your head
and put it to canvas, and it finally looks somewhat alive, looking back at you,
is really emotionally powerful.

Wasn't sure if I wanted to talk about it, but I've been in a fair amount of
pain/discomfort going back to November, and it's made it hard to sleep or work
on stream remodeling or much of anything else. Hoping to get some answers soon.

If I used my tech job to steal money and ransom users, I shouldn't ever be given
another job in front of a computer. "Internet personalities" who leverage their
fame to abuse and manipulate others shouldn't have a public-facing job ever
again.

The couple weeks after holidays where coworkers are still on vacation should be
more relaxing. I've been conditioned by so many crappy managers and quiet
firings over my career that the lack of feedback loop just makes me want to curl

The stream rework is chugging along, and I'm hoping to set a relaunch date
mid-February. I miss streaming but the break was more necessary than I realized.
In the meantime, I collected my favorite clips from my first two years of
streaming into one video. Enjoy! youtu.be/EZsFqHltZFo

First attempt at cheek scruff looked too stringy. More bits + inflate sculpting
around the bases and tapering at the ends makes it look more like actual fluff
