@float13 I don't have any suggestions there, but Cyberia did a music jam a few weeks back on this stuff. You might want to come through our matrix and ask there: matrix.cyberia.club . Here was our page for the music jam, there's some resources there: cyberia.club/music-jam

cursed mashup; all star and the wellerman 

So, I'm working on a cursed mashup. I think I'd like to sneak in as much of Smash Mouth's All Star into The Wellerman as possible without changing the tune of The Wellerman.

Here's a sample, I'd love to see what other folks come up with:

There was a ship that put to sea
and the name of that ship was the billy o tea
the winds blew up her bow dipped down
oh blow me bully boys blow!

soon may the wellerman come
your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
soon may the wellerman come
you'll never know if you don't go

She had not been two weeks from shore
When down on her, a right whale bore
The captain called all hands and swore
You'll never shine if you don't glow

hey now, you're an all star
get your game on
go play
hey now you're rock star
get the show on
get paid

Before the boat had hit the water
You're bundled up now wait till you're older
The meteor men, beg to differ,
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture

soon may the wellerman come
your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
soon may the wellerman come
you'll never know if you don't go

@f0x sounds tasty! Remember to hydrate! 💙

Vaccinated, outdoor gathering, weather 

Today will be warm and also is day of a little DOTA 2 guild bonfire meetup. The humidity is 84%, which is kinda high.

It'll be cool to see guildmates in person. It's wild how much the pandemic changed my social patterns, and I'm looking forward to meeting some of those friends in person for the first time.

But also, 84% humidity and like 85°. We'll be like two blocks from a lake, though. Maybe I'll just bring a swimsuit?

kink at pride 

I feel like a lot of people are confusing Pride events with the Folsom street festival. I've never been to a pride where people were any less clothed than being at the beach and in a lot of cases I wondered how people werent fainting because they were wearing SO MUCH.

A lot of the hand wringing about "think of the children!" reminds me forcibly of the mindset that gay people are morally degenerate and just salivating for a chance to expose your child to sex. and i say that as someone who was exposed to sexually explicit kink far, FAR too young but here's the kicker- it was the heteros that did that to me. there's far more sexually explicit content on tiktok and daytime tv than i generally see at Pride.

Sci Fi show where pvp is enabled for billionaires and whoever kills them gets to keep 100 million while the rest gets the distributed.

Main character could be a hunter who forgets to give away money before killing their tenth billionaire.

You think it's trying to humanize billionaires but you realize actually the main character deserves to be hunted because they never cared about helping people just liked the excuse to kill.

People all over are confused about how to feel.

re: Freenode 

@thegibson@hackers.town @drwho@hackers.town yeah, that's maybe worth mentioning, too. There was another reply that seemed like they were trying to 'both sides' things was my main concern...

Thanks for the link

Freenode 

@drwho@hackers.town from what I understand, the volunteer moderation team left after the current owner told them to stop moderating the way they'd been for years. As the org runs on donated hardware, folks expect the network, once the mods leave, to fall apart.

Migration to libera.chat is underway.

it's 2021 but apparently some people are still out of the loop so

do not use the term "fren"

here's a good place to start on why
reddit.com/r/OutOfTheLoop/comm

it's a nazi/alt-right dogwhistle and i don't wanna see it. do not use it in any context. don't just stop using it around me but continue using it around others. just don't use it at all. if you hear someone else say it tell them to stop too. if they refuse to stop even after you have informed them then that should be raising some serious red flags

i am going to be implementing a block on sight no questions asked policy going forward

@haskal thanks for letting me know! I picked it up from local antifa nerds, had no idea there was a Bad Internet Place associated.
