Still has AI generated code. I tried setting up an account and despite it saying the email to verify your account would take up to 10 minutes, it actually would take hours. And I can’t sign up with my proton email (managed to get it to work with my gmail), while my friend cant get it to verify with their gmail.

This wont go anywhere until they have an app that is easy to download. And then everyone says Revolt/Stoat but that doesnt even fucking work cause their verification system is ass (probably because they use gen AI to code) and also is difficult to download the mobile app

I imagine locking Alan Wake 2 to the EGS on pc probably did not help their sales there. FBC I feel like had no excuse though

Aesthetic in this case is an adjective not a noun. Aesthetic pinboard means the pinboard’s purpose is visual. Basically style over substance (not in a negative way)

The filter is the fucking community. This space is for shitposts, not political news. You guys spit in the face of the natural filters in place (communities curated for specific things) and just tell us to filter it. Itd be like if you broke into my house and pissed on my floor and just told me to lock the doors. Like bro I did, you came through the second floor window.

- Comment on Larian want to release Divinity in "three to four years", and they're making limited use of generative AI 1 month ago:
This is exactly my thought. I hate AI, I find it unethical. But I find it unethical because of how it affects workers, and I hate it because I believe it is being overused and its environmental impact. I think it is useful as a tool, not as a medium or replacement. It can help with a lot of tedious work and help spur up quick drafts of things, but the final product should be human made. And for the love of god people, stop using it as a replacement for search engines!

- Comment on Trump wants the NFL to change its name so that soccer is the only sport called football: ‘We have to come up with another name for the NFL stuff’ 2 months ago:
Quick correction. We didnt steal it, we used it because of the British, then the British decided they didnt like the term anymore and swapped to “football” and Americans just kinda kept using it. Same thing with imperial measurements. They were invented by the British, we used them cause we were a british colony, then Britain changed their mind and Americans stuck with the original.
Long story short, British invent something and the Americans use it cause former british colony, then the british change their mind and then make fun of the Americans while the pretend they werent the people who invented it in the first place.
Its some gaslighting bullshit

If the majority of mentally ill elementary schoolers at the place my partner works know that 9/11 was real, I have a hard time believing the average kid thinks its just some weird cultural reference. And when it comes to the Edmund Fitzgerald, they just don’t know what that was. I didn’t know what it was till I saw the meme.

Do you seriously think young people think 9/11 wasn’t a real event? Just cause we make stupid shitposts about it doesn’t mean with think its fake.

You are right, I phrased that wrong. I fixed it.
- Comment on Sensory issues 2 months ago:
Looking through the comments highlights once again that neurotypicals continue to invalidate neurodivergent experiences because they do no understand the experience. Part of it is certainly due to the language we continue to use, as it doesnt explain the full extent of the experience. But another is just neurotypical people refusing to understand the struggles of neurodivergent people.
In relation to specifically this meme, yes most people do not like tags. Most people find them irritable and uncomfortable. The difference is autistic people are more senstive to sensory things, to the point something like a tag itching at your neck becomes an excrutiating and unmanageable experience.
If you can go a whole day wearing a shirt with a tag in it with no major issues, you are probably a neurotypical. If when you wear a shirt with a tag it is a unbearable sensation, something you cant ignore and stresses you out to the point you cant go a full day wearing it and still function as a humanbeing, you are probably autistic.
For future reference for neurotypical people, stop assuming you know what being neurodivergent is. For those people trying to find the fakers, stop. You arent a doctor, just like how that person you are trying to accuse of self diagnosing for attention is also not a doctor. You genuinely do not know what you are talking about and are genuinely no better than all the transphobic chuds that “transvestigate” people. At best you called out a shitty person trying to earn internet points (someone who will not think twice about your comment), and at worse you are invalidating someone’s personal lived experience (something that can seriously affect their mental health).
If someone is talking about their experience as a neurodivergent person and you think “Hey I do that,” there are two more likely possibilities than that they are faking. Either 1. You are autistic and don’t know it. Or 2. You are not understanding the full extent of what they are talking about.
- Comment on Pot crashing out the kettle 2 months ago:
I do want to specify that I am not counting AI in what I am talking about. I agree AI is worse and I consider it a whole different beast than the regular brainrot any generation consumes. I love shitposts, I love stupid and surreal memes, I love the stupid cringey internet shit like Homestuck, or Skibidi Toilet, whatever. Even if I don’t actually interact with it, I love that it exists and that people are enjoying it. Its real, its human, and like it or not it is art.
AI is the antithesis of art. It is not creation for the sake of creation or expression, it is creation for the sake of consuming. It is what art has struggled and failed to escape from, and that is becoming a product to be consumed. There is no expression or soul. I admire art in all its forms when it is made by a person because they wanted to put effort into making something. Not for profit, not forfame, but because they find the process to be intrinsically valuable to them. It is something I wish to see expand to the rest of life.
AI art is shrinking that glimpse and plunging the light and hope art gives for a better world, and confines us in a dark world of consuming and producing like a sick human centipede ouroboros.

Me and my partner debated a lot about this because they hate skibidi toilet. I had never watched it and do not care to but I tried to tell them that skibidi toilet is no different than shit we grew up with, they just werent on that side of the internet. It is literally just a SFM video. Its no different than the shitpost tf2 sfm videos a lot of us were watching back around the 2010 and that are still being made today. Is it Pootis Enage levels of SFM cinema? No, more akin to We Like To Party. But to pretend like the brainrot we grew up with is any better than the brainrot late gen z or gen alpha are growing up with is just delusional imho. I mean look at the shit we had, like Badgers, What Does The Fox Say, and plenty more. We always had brainrot on the internet, you’re just not a child anymore. Honestly I feel like the brainrot has gotten a bit better in a certain way. Its not as bigoted as it used to be. I remember a lot of internet humor being just saying slurs, racism, ableism, and queerphobia (not to say it doesn’t exist now, but I feel it is less common). I grew up with it, I still find it funny even if I also find it distasteful, but if skibidi toilet is the worst of your concerns then I think we are gonna be fine.

I only managed to move out recently. Unfortunately there was a lot of damage done to our relationship prior to me moving out, and its damage I don’t believe he is aware is there. Even if it is, neither of us are eager to confront it. I still visit, and try to do it about bi-weekly (distance being the main factor), but it always feels awkward and I don’t think that will go away until the current state of America improves or we take the effort to fix the mend. Further unfortunately, I worry that he won’t change and that is a huge barrier to mending our relationship.
Our relationship is in a really difficult spot. If we don’t try and work through it and just keep skirting around things and avoiding the problem things will never improve and it will always be awkward around him. But if we confront things, there is a good likelyhood things will end up worse than they already are
