🍃the eternal problem of fighting games is that they are insanely, insanely easy. you just beat up the other guy. and that's where the trouble lies because your opponent is trying to do the same thing to you. and that's what makes them so damn hard.... -the game philosopher (me)

really glad we've got clarity with all this new guidance in the uk but um. like. hypothetically speaking. what are you meant to do if you forgot what sex they assigned you at birth. it was like a really really long time ago and everything,

i'm under the impression that the spacex chunk hitting the moon is accidental which, if true, is a genuinely impressive failure in as in the context of how large space is, statistically, the moon arguably does not exist

when i’m in charge i’m gonna ban, permanently, screencapping a single loaded out of context claim from a much larger political article and then getting everyone to do a full day of discourse over it

I taught myself programming as a 13-year-old to make Minecraft mods. My dad works in construction, my mother in childcare. "Computer class" at school included "how to use Word 2008" I did this myself. I can't help but wonder if a more restricted internet would ever allow for such self-development.

yup. unrestricted internet access is what allowed me to learn who i am, while being stuck in an environment that was extremely hostile to the idea. its also what made me who i am, in a way, and i don’t have a single regret about it either. it’s what saved me from becoming a bigoted idiot, really.

this isn't very popular to say, but for me personally, it was good that i had unrestricted internet access when i was a minor. i was aware of what i was doing and enjoyed it. i don't look back on it and go "well that was a mistake", i look back on it and wish i could do it for the first time again
