Do you know where she is? In a mental institution.

i hate this place i want to go to build a bear

Me, 11pm, stumbling upon a 20k beauty on Ao3 :

It's just a oneshot. I got this. It'll be okay.

Me, 3am, eyes fried, brain melted, 3 hours of sleep left:

Well, fuck

i could fix² her¹

¹her = mom's computer (forcefully "upgraded" to windows 11) ²fix = install linux on it

what is even the point of bookmarking a work you don’t like??? I don’t bookmark often but it’s always to come back to something that was special or exceptional to me in some way. If I don’t like it I’m not saying anything, I just assume I wasn’t the target audience and leave. 🙄🥸

That’s how I assumed bookmarks worked too until I started getting “6/10 not long enough :/” in the bookmarks on my fics in the last 2-3 years and then people on r/ao3 told me to shut up and be grateful readers even read my fic.

omg is the same image aoughhfhsh

Come join linux, firefox and open source software. We should have the right to choose what we want in our machines.

Please forgive me for ranting, but...I am so tired of AI. Just so tired. I don't want Microsoft Copilot, or Google Gemini, or Meta AI, or whatever other energy-sucking, water-wasting, mediocrity-spewing LLM is currently being thrust upon me. I just want to be left alone to create in peace.

how to say "I love you" in x-files [153/?] ⤷ 2.24 — “Our Town”

Gather around kids, I am Very Old and I remember the summer of 2000. Good times on the Fox forums, deep in battle with the NoRoMos.

Mulder had just been abducted and Scully revealed she was pregnant. The Shippers were losing their minds and the NoRoMos were coming for us, saying it wasn't Mulder's baby, that it must have been the result of some alien experiment and therefore the baby was an alien. They trolled us by insisting the alien baby's name was Meepmork.

Does anyone else remember this or am I making it up?

how to say "I love you" in x-files [118/?] ⤷ 1.17 — “E.B.E.”

God I hate how normalized not being in control of your own devices has become. My phone updates in the middle of the night without asking me shit or getting my consent for anything and its like "Oh hi I'm your new AI, please enjoy this forced overlay that you can't exit out of until you go through my tutorial"

"Great fuck you, I would like to uninstall you" "Oh I'm sorry you can't uninstall me! I'm a core system application and if you uninstall me your phone won't function correctly despite the fact that I did not exist yesterday and your phone worked fine" "....." "You can disable parts of my functionality but I will always be here and I will pop up notifications asking you to re-enable me unless you figure out how to disable those too! Then I will still show up in a different color at the top of your settings application telling you that you need to 'fix" a 'problem' with your phone, that problem being that I am disabled. Does that help?"

Like, you know what I can do on my desktop? "sudo pacman -Rdd linux" , this will just fucking remove the entire linux kernel. Fundamentally breaking my computer until I boot up a live disk and chroot in and reinstall it or whatever, and the computer will go "Are you sure (y/n)" or whatever and i'm like "y" and it will just go "Ok you got it boss"

But its mine, I get to do what I want with it. I control the computer, the computer does not control me. I refuse to cede control to my phone or anything else. The thing is a lot of people will joke that like "Oh I love just letting the machine tell me what to do, I don't know what I'm doing, it knows best" or whatever but the thing you have to realize is that when you say that you are abstracting away that "the phone" or whatever is not some value neutral logic driven robot like from sci-fi, it is a collection of the the capitalistic and fascistic desires of the tech oligarch fuckwits that are burning the world to the ground right now. You aren't submitting to the phone, you are submitting to Musk, Bezos, Nadella, Pichai, Cook and all those other evil bastards.

Fuck them, fuck their little AI toys, and fuck this.

Video games have this fascinating middle ground between "not as good as you remember" and "exactly as good as you remember" that lives roughly in the vicinity of "its ideas are as good as you remember, but their actual game-mechanical implementation sucks ass".
