Feeling a bit excited to be sitting in on an online EU event featuring Mastodon's Philip Schroepel [@…] - about building sovereign digital public spaces - a key issue at this time.

Today, I walked through an IKEA twice. First for shopping, and then a second time retracing every single step, to find the lost emotional support plushie.
Found it after 2/3 of IKEA.

Owl City has been an interesting recurring character for a long time. He fundamentally makes kinkade music, but in many instances there's something unintentionally captivating about watching a sheltered autistic christian man trying and failing to emulate the sterile neurotypical inhumanity of late 00s commercials, attempts at sincerely becoming what the squeakiest cleanest presenting factions want giving birth to an entirely different surreal alternate reality from the one he professes …

Ich kann diese ständigen Meldungen, wie uns KI alle retten wird, nicht mehr sehen!
Alles ist angeblich mit KI auf dem Optimierungsweg.
Ernährung, Umweltschutz, Klimakrise, ...
Nachweise: Fehlanzeige.
Das Narrativ ist dennoch erfolgreich, weil es verspricht, dass wir so weiter machen können, wie bisher.
Gegen alle Erkenntnisse.

What the Trump Administration Is Buying With CBS's Reputation
The administration's story about the Renee Good shooting was falling apart. CBS gave them the credibility to put it back together.

Day Five in the Improv Narrative house, and we're in the format I like most really. A few instructive games in the first half and a couple of longer narrative stories in the second half.
The island game was supposed to teach something about not deliberately getting obstructive.
A scene where your players are told they are on one island and must end up at some point all on the other one the other side of the stage.
Set a scene, make some characters, but nobody said it was supposed to be difficult to get from one island to the other.
Yet barriers are deliberately thrown up, actually imaginary barriers since the whole thing is imaginary after all. Why should there be sharks or a quest for a boat or the sea deep and cold.
You can just wade across. You can just have a boat. You can just levitate yourself over with your hive mind psychic abilities.
Unsure about this.
There must be conflict and peril and challenges which are mastered in a story, you can't set up a hero's quest only to have the hero just happen to have a holy grail in the stationary cupboard. Already got one you see. Use it for storing pens.
Still. Finding the crowbar doesn't have to be a quest. There can just be one in the boot. Don't let things get bogged down in difficulty.
Watched a story about a lazy fellow falling into a life of crime and villainy because of his tardiness and fulfilling his teacher's prophecy that he would indeed end up as a criminal if he didn't buck up his ideas. Good repeated themes of characters making lists of his failures and nice stage-focus work when everyone was on stage at once.
Played a preacher organizing a wedding in a story about friends running a hotel.
Fun to have Reverend Priest finding sin everywhere again. Easy wipe-off sin in this case. We may have come to an end too early. Perhaps not enough obstructions put in the way. 😆
