damn i post haterade about this stuff pretty infrequently and generally in well informed manner these dudes must be *pissed*

fuck sam altman forever for taking away the last places where we could engage in good faith: the creative arts, which should be a testament to human ingenuity. i am so mad that everything i read or listen to or admire is now tainted with doubt. do you understand? he is a thief of joy and i HATE HIM

CUTE QUEERS are looking to RIDE BUSES in YOUR area

software is hard, yes, and my tolerance for bugs is inversely proportional to your budget.

free hobbyist software? i'm just glad you made it.

industrial tool made by holder of "infinite money glitch" revenue streams? straight to hell at first bug.

i’ve been on the receiving end of a lot of trans femme flirting but clocking me as an electronic music dweeb and sending me unprompted aphex twin has to be one of the most genre specific instances of it

This is structurally identical to a Da Share Z0ne post

ok but for real i feel like public transit shouldn’t require ear protection?

ask not for whom the bart howls

it howls for thee

every day i see shit about creatives being forced to close shop in the us and how everyone feels precarious and i just think if we regulated how much blood landlords could drain from you maybe we wouldn't be so anemic as a country

I hear the Bluesky devs told Claude to only break your feed if you’re gay

wtfffff how is that not dangerous?

i feel like they should have to warn you that you’re going to be giving 11 vials of blood before it happens?

my very unassuming doctor asked about hobbies and interests, heard me mention electronic music and then got very shy and asked if i liked trent reznor?

girl i have an undercut facial piercings dyed hair and a manual endocrine system how am i going to judge you for nine inch nails

medical questionnaire: "what are your stressors"

i swear my friends like stressing me out

drinkager cheeseburble

a photo with someone holding a flash cart, someone holding an ayn thor, and someone flipping the bird in front of the sf nintendo store

guess our feelings on piracy

(that’s a DS flash cart on the left)

5 console and monitor setups, each with a pair of nerds in front of them playing guilty gear xrd on them, in a dark venue with purple lighting illuminating the scene

the xrd gamers did not stop mashing all weekend

sick slashback, see y’all next year

a catholic schism? in this economy?

fighting game tournaments are so cool but damn i really do get anxious as hell any time i hear someone cough indoors these days

wearing unbroken-in boots while stomping around on concrete all weekend was a choice

ow

novel fighting game moment; recognized someone by their fight stick

I'm pretty disappointed in them honestly. If I went to space I would simply not come back.

almost typed ggs into the group chat after hanging out with the non-gamers it’s so over for me
