"Is this real?" XJC99 asked. He'd been fooled before.
"Test it yourself," replied the bookseller. "Printed in 1953 - over four hundred years ago, well before the Artificial Age."
XJC99 tentatively touched the paper with his appendage. Carbon-14 dating verified the claim.
"I'll take it!" exclaimed XJC99.
Back at his flat he unwrapped the treasure and stared. Another addition to his collection! The rarest of all rarities - real words written by an actual human!

My friend who left Indonesia in the 90s after being assaulted at a bus stop for being gay, only just got his green card *now* after 30 years. He finally fell in love with someone who wanted to marry him, and could. For 30 years, he could not go anywhere. His entire family passed on and he could not see them.
I think so much about visas, queerness, oppression in a trans-national manner. It’s not just foreign policy or immigration policy to me. It’s lived experience for me and everyone I know.
I am eating a dinner of hot wings and tater tots. If I die of eating badly, please do not blame the air fryer. She does not know what she does.
The Video on Demand of today's game stream is now up. Listen to me blame everything but myself for my bad performance at platformers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3iSOPXUTSI&list=PLHgkUFTzXaikuNyhZxqj3elLT8PG58mvo&index=3
Hey, remember those Twitch Streams I used to do? We're gonna do another one. In fact, i'm hoping we're going to do a lot of them.
Come watch me flail away at Mario vs. Donkey Kong at the top of the hour. 7PM Pacific 10PM Eastern.

Reminder to those in the Pacific Northwest with negative temperatures, check your hummingbird feeders. I forgot last night and mine are frozen through. The hummingbirds are hovering about confusedly. Sorry my bird friends!

Here's the thing.
I have spent 4 years working in and on crypto.
When I criticise it, I know what I'm talking about.
I was drawn in by the idea of a new financial system that didn't rely on traditional banks. I was excited by the idea of rebuilding digital ownership in a post-streaming world.
In the end, I came to realise my idealism had blinded me. The philosophy was largely false.
And outweighed by the scams, thefts, fraud and grift.

Since the beginning of 2022, I've made a big effort to digitize all my archive of...everything (and re-digitizing some of my older stuff).
I've been concentrating on optical media since I started, and after almost two years, I've hit my first milestone: all my audio CDs are re-encoded. I will likely have all my CD-ROMs also ripped shortly.
The Blu-Rays and DVDs not so much. Oh my goodness, the DVD stack is HUGE.
"Is that a pimple or a boil?"
"....that's a pretzel."
"Oh...::munch::...yeah it is!"
::looks at my dissapointing frozen dinner::
I'm gonna guess that General Tso and General Chang had very different ideas about chicken dishes.

Responding to the #Dreamwidth bat signal - hi!
Here's the most recent statement I can find from Denise on the matter:
"If you are not using a VPN and you regularly get the captcha from our hosting provider (the graphical one instead of the DW-native text one), please email support@dreamwidth.org with your IP address… we are very well aware of the security and privacy reasons to use a VPN service for internet browsing, and we really wish we didn't have to put those barriers in the way of some of the VPN services people use to access the site, but the overwhelming majority of our abusive traffic comes from free VPN services. It's been getting sharply worse lately, and we've needed to take some radical steps to curtail it. I apologize profusely to those of you who are using those services legitimately for the inconvenience you've been experiencing."
