Attempting to be creative at various things at various times, for example: #Filmmaking, #CreativeWriting, #GraphicDesign, etc.
Let’s make a better world together! (In a neato fun awesome way that is. Not in a Weyland-Yutani way.)
He/His, Strawberries > Bananas, A third thing.
You… you shut up. 🥲
“It’s tempting to say we’re stepping into a new world where all forms of media cannot be trusted,”…
Yes, we are and it’s shit for the human mind to have to constantly do a double take on everything to make sure it’s actually real.
“but in fact, we’re being given further proof of what was always the case: Recorded media has no intrinsic truthfulness, and we’ve always judged the credibility of information from the reputation of the messenger.”
Sure subjectivity, biases, and other factors skew things, that’s a thing. But I’m sorry, “Any information humanity has ever preserved in any format is worthless.”, is quite the fucking claim.
I don’t know what’s sadder the giant Safeway sandwiches going from $9.99 to $13.99 or my mortgage about to go up like 200 goddamn dollars…
Excel is okay as long as it stays in its lane.
It is not okay if you’ve ever worked in a printshop or do graphic design and people send in newsletters or brochures or some shit done within Excel.

“You’re awfully loud over there. You haven’t tried to just let the world be all night.”
If you’re cool with Invidious you can use instances via the Yattee app. (Not sure if it’s available in every territory though.)
I’ve had a similar experience and tried to adjust my road related interactions with cars when walking or cycling not in an aggressive way but in a “I get to occupy space too” kind of way.
Just because it’s the “road” and you’re in a car and I’m not doesn’t mean that you’re royalty. Take your time, exist, make them wait.
Been using Bear Blog for a few years now and it’s been very cool as a small static blog platform.
No excess menus, no ad junk. An enjoyable experience all around.
