The trolls be a- trolling on this fine summer morning…

Naw the west is still active all night, the vampires are just lurkers.

Jack in with your personal link.

…so Jimmy Neutron can penetrate concrete?

As a vampire, please don’t compare us to those fucking monsters. It’s extremely insensitive. Most of us are, in fact, antifascist, probably from the turnings of dying allied soldiers during the war…

I like a sideways version of H, but my girlfriend likes D, so I end up sideways in a coffin housed within a section of the tesseract blanket that’s slightly outside of the material plane and it’s lovely

You develop cyberpsychosis. Your anatomy is too foreign for anyone to be able to treat it.

You have to eat enough calories to keep up with it, and while your body is stronger, you’ll still wear out and likely need all your joints replaced within a decade.

Okay but like, the human body does in fact suck in many ways, one of those being that we’re naturally filthy as fuck.

It’s worth noting that the above is, of course, an opinion. I find human stench repulsive. Many do. Some don’t. But regardless, I don’t think less of a person or culture for not using or having access to the typical hot water + exfoliating + soap + deodorant + scent + moisturizer method that western culture holds so dear. I couldn’t do without it. And yes I’m slightly grossed out as a natural reaction when people don’t use it. But I don’t think "that uncultured savage pig doesn’t bathe* in that situation, that would just be horrible. Unfortunately many do think that way, and I agree that that kind of hostile, accusatory thinking is likely partially due to western marketing.

I personally am a transhumanist in philosophy. I think that if we can make a way to make the human body some radiant vessel that would have been worshipped as a goddess across most of human history, that such an endeavor is worth while. But many look down on others when such standards become normalized. That is the key difference: another main tenant of transhuman philosophy is the idea of bodily autonomy. You inhabit the vessel you want, whether bathed or not.

And I agree that marketing has, in fact, been instrumental in pushing that “your body is fucking disgusting” idea onto others so heavily. Capitalism capitalizes best on making people feel lower or less important without a product.

I learned all the basics of computers when I was 10 from Minecraft. Learned basic life concepts from there much earlier. I learned file directories from modding Java edition. Learned networking from multilpayer. Get an error message? Read it, Google and try to figure out how to fix it. Learned some Java coding around age 12 from a modding lesson program my parents got me. Also learned electronic skills and soldering at the same age from disassembling broken stuff and savaging motors to make stuff.

If kids are given a difficult, nerdy interface in one hand, and all the world’s knowledge in the other, they’ll be genius. If they’re given an iPad they’ll have no idea what a folder is, much less a MAC address.

This is why all children should start on a $100 ThinkPad running Arch Linux, a cheap rooted phone, and Firefox with the links to stack exchange and arch forums bookmarked for them.

Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

A lot of us in NOLA, too! And Denver for some reason…

In many companies access is removed before they’re notified so vengeful employees can’t go in and fuck things up right after being terminated.

You interact with the fediverse.

You’re on at least 3 terrorist watchlists. Period.

… it’s a timezone joke. F*** off.

Deport Jésus (Christ)!

Except that the original post from TikTok or insta (can’t tell which was first) wasn’t even censored, and some dumbass on reddit added the crayon scribbles.

Agreed. Fourscore and twelve just works (English used to use this, at least in formal speech and writing).
