Remember, the most prominent proponent of Omarchy is @nprofile1q...

I still think that they naïvely doofed their way into this self-own, then tried to pretend that it was a principled stand, and backed themselves into a corner.

But, design is what the thing does. And Framework pays Nazis.

Cheney and Bush’s response to the attacks of 9/11 could not have been more effective for damaging the civil society of the United States in the way the attackers intended.

Woke up this morning with “It’s In His Kiss (Shoop shoop)” running around in my head.

Specifically with Bart Simpson in the John Waters episode.

While Apple definitely deserve opprobrium for bending its knee, people who “won’t use Apple” ignore that Google and Microsoft have as a matter of policy copied Apple, then take out all the security and privacy features.

Yes, we need an Open, privacy-focused OS for phones. But until that exists I’ll keep using the one that doesn’t belong to Russians, cops, and malware developers as its core feature.

I think I know the name of my next project.

Issue 3 of my zine electric ant is out!

• Hear what I think about how to be prosocial transhumans in the future we live in!
• See lots of pictures of our incredible local electronic music/sound/art scene!

Hey, I'm working on a thing.

It's a zine called electric ant. It's notionally about our local, incredibly creative, and BIG electronic music scene here in Western Massachusetts.

It's also about human/machine creativity in general.

I'm trying to build a Wordpress site to empower people to share, communicate, & care about each other. Prosocial media.

But I'm doing too many things.

Who wants to help with an artist-first cyberzine social media system?

(I want you to use it for your scene too!)

I thought I was out, but they're pullin me back in.

Suddenly, people are interested in my game design again for some reason.

I only stopped because I released The BLOODY-HANDED NAME of BRONZE on the literal weekend COVID hit the East Coast and my RPG release was the least important thing to everyone. But that book was expensive, and the people excited to see me and play with me at PAX wisely weren't there.

I'm glad this is happening as I'm getting my Shopify set up to sell my games again.

@nprofile1q... !

"What we care about is VICTORY" is almost literally "Sieg Heil."

This is exactly what my current article I’m writing is about!

Also, it includes bOING bOING as one of those liberal arts projects.
