What the fuck do you mean, Twitch can deny your appeal without even giving you a proper, human-written response? The email telling me they denied it literally just said the same thing that the original "your account was deactivated" email said. It's all automated responses.

It's a fucking joke that Twitch might take so long to respond to my appeal that I'll either have to pass up on a Twitch Drop event or actually change my friggin' user name for daring to *checks notes* be bigoted against myself specifically

We report: mid-morning, the sun turns from light source to a heat lamp, specifically pointing to the back of our neck. We walk close to the walls, in the slivers of shade that live there, and those are still much cooler in comparison. We sometimes find wind in the wider streets.

the battery on my phone isn’t holding a charge very well anymore so i’ll probably need to get a new phone soon. i’ll keep you all posted on the timetable. while i’m not an expert on spiritual matters, my best guess is that you’ll all be reincarnated

Okay, I am going to tell a little story. It's one I have saved for the last couple years, almost nobody knows about it. But it lives in my heart. I don't know how others will feel about it, maybe something, maybe nothing. It's about the Uncanny X-Men. 1/

"Love reading fanfiction? How about creating your own?" is a *nuts* angle for an AI company, because you're notably *not* creating it yourself and it couldn't even be fanfiction because an AI can't be a fan!

We report: we see half a dozen sunrises on the train. The sun emerges from behind the clouds, casting an orange glow across the whole sky, then the clouds swallow it back. Minutes later, another place, the shape of the clouds has changed, but it happens again the exact same way.

Digital painting of a sunrise sky, large swathes of grey clouds spread out  across a pastel blue and orange sky. The clouds are all different shapes, some long and smooth, others tall and bubbling. In the middle of the frame, some clouds are bright red, and bright sunshine is coming through. The horizon is dark, trees and buildings.

deeply sad what zionist propaganda has done to the idea of being Jewish, even just within the community. Making the world a better place, tikkun olam -- that's the whole thing. That's Judaism. All the rest is commentary.

If my house is wet, and one group is yelling that it was raining, and the other group says it's a secret movement to undermine the west by making my house wet - research papers don't mean a damn

"True, but when an outsider sees two groups shouting at each other,  especially when both sides are waving research papers around, caution is rather natural response."
