Abolish currency, revert to trading sheep and goats.

The funniest, most delusional thing in all of this: Does she actually think there's a whole "MAGA Inc." organization that's masterminding whatever the hell Trump is up to?

(No you silly, it's a decentralized federation of MAGA instances)

I just checked in on how NBA Topshot (basically sports highlight NFTs) are doing and apparently they are still finding greater fools.

Well, clearly Jesus is the actual false prophet, because a long-haired dark-skinned Middle Eastern socialist who got executed as a criminal sounds like a LOSER.

The people who are still pissy over at reddit don’t actually want to leave unless they’re presented with a reddit clone that has both a fully developed app and a huge userbase.

Invisible Hand is working as intended. Praise Adam Smith!

I lurk the frontpage occasionally and I've already noticed the Reddit atmosphere has gotten ... weird.

Little-known, content-churning subreddits are bubbling to the top because of all the other blackouts and desertions. Fringe viewpoints and wacko opinions that would normally get downvoted to the bottom of a thread are now out in the open because there's no voice of reason to hold them back.

And the kind of people that are still on there, acting as if everything is fine (or, God forbid, better(???) than it was before the revolts) ... it's a very strange place now.

Just be glad we're actually taking showers.

I just like that I can post an honest comment and not worry about being Well-Ackshually'd to death. Sometimes I'd be knee-deep in Wikipedia fact-checking and suddenly realize, "This reddit reply is not worth the personal effort I am putting into it."

There's the answer I was looking for!

I watched a 3-hour Krita beginner's tutorial (can't remember the exact video but the narrator had a strong French accent) and he explained so many tricks and tips - hold down Ctrl to do this, hold down Shift to do another thing - that might not be intuitive from just poking around. But Krita really is the "built by artists, for artists" program once you have a keyboard & tablet config that fits one's personal workflow.

LMAO, felt this.

The last time I had to write a Statement of Intent was to get into grad school and I sure as shit ain't doing homework for a free online community.

Hello world.

As an Internet Old Head I'm just happy to be talking to real people again, and not bots or bad-faith trolls or (worse yet) shouting into the wind and having the algorithm bat you down.
