The Isle in Springtime
Photos like these were distributed to US Senators, along with a care package consisting of one (1) sleeve Necco Wafers, one (1) standard-issue monogrammed shaving kit, three (3) lizard-in-a-tequila-flavored-hard-candies and two (d6) bottles of Dr. Perpagum's Natural Sweet-Tonic (local delicacy/contraband of choice) as part of lobbying efforts to withdraw a Nixon-era blockade of the small nation.
While not technically faked, the pictures were staged based on the sorts of things the locals thought Americans were into, things like flowers, pantsuits, and telekinesis.
shout out to puppets. gotta be one of my favorite genders
Just wanted to wish everyone a safe and happy Christmas and festive season. Thank you all for your continued support, hope you're all doing well, wherever you are.
I love leather and I love fur and I don’t mind arguing about it.
“Do you think it’s okay to slaughter animals for their skin?” I eat them too AUGH AUGH AUGH AUGH
“doctor I’m wearing a leather jacket and eating a hamburger please you have to take me away I’m a danger to society”
"doctor I prefer using biodegradable materials which only need one animal dead to be created and worn for years, instead of polluting the enviornment with microplastics Wich end up killing hundrets of animals by wearing a fake leather jacket that i have to replace maybe all 3 years"

Enjoy this regifting of some riffing on a batch of old holiday commercials. TV dinners, cameras, cigarettes, and Folgers coffee... yes, that commercial. You know the one.
From the vaults yet always timely since this song WILL NOT GO AWAY, Jim has some questions about "Last Christmas".

Sucks because i agree with the sentiment but Alexa, Echo, Ring, and all the things that work with them are what keep homebound/bedbound people like me able to live a semi independent life. If not for these things I would have been sent to a convalescent home and I have decided to kill my self when that happens.
I know normies don't consider what these things dying means for disabled people and I know a lot of them wouldn't care if they did but I agree it sucks that Amazon is evil and is using this technology to encroach on people's personal lives and commodify every aspect of life. It especially sucks because these technologies were created for people like us but because this is a capitalistic heallscape the only way we have access to them is through corporations.
Amazon Alexa is a huge savior for people with disabilities of any kind really. I’ve worked with special needs folks for years and the amount of JOY Alexa brings in all the various things that you can have her do can’t be easily explained. She can order things, read things to you, turn your lights on and off, activate home systems such as security or your thermostat, and plenty more things, and you can give her specific commands to your own personal subroutines and she’ll do those tasks too. She’s a friend to lonely people. She turns the Christmas music on. She does the thing that could have taken you 10 minutes or more to do if you had to do it physically or she saves you the 30 minutes of mental investment you had to do some ordering. Virtual assistance voice communication devices are saviors. Please think about the lives of others.
there are non-amazon smart speaker devices! believe me when i say that everyone who wants alexa to die is worried about privacy concerns rather than hating the experience. the apple homepod does much better with privacy, and there are open source options as well.
the invasion of privacy for marketing purposes is one of the worst features of late capitalism. alexa is a convenience and an excellent tool, but like any tool, one must weigh the benefits of using it against the costs: loss of control over your data, buying into the amazon ecosystem, providing a massively powerful company with data about you. this is imo particularly relevant for disabled people, because of the the ways that disability is defined legally in the US -- what if the government starts using amazon data to determine who's eligible for benefits, and then decides to make the benefit requirements stricter? this is not outside the range of possibility.
getting out from under the thumb of amazon & the other giants will certainly take creativity and effort and careful resourcing; amazon & google products are cheaper because part of the way you pay for the product is by providing data. there have to be ways & avenues for people to access this type of tech without giving up privacy. from a quick search i see mycroft AI as an option. not sure if there's speakers specifically dedicated for use as assistive technology but i wouldn't be surprised if there were.
Shortpacked!: Victory!

The report says that by year four of the Alexa experiment, "Alexa was getting a billion interactions a week, but most of those conversations were trivial commands to play music or ask about the weather." Those questions aren't monetizable.
So they didn't want people using the very things they advertised as being useful; the reasons you'd tolerate an always-on virtual assistant in your life.

Just because it's Thanksgiving, doesn't mean you can't enjoy some leftovers today! Reheat our riff of A DAY OF THANKSGIVING to your liking!
We're still kicking! And kicking and screaming seems like the best way to handle a Thanksgiving dinner like this. So gird and pucker your girdable and puckerable parts, it's time for DINING TOGETHER!
We spent way too long on this.
someone said that bc bo burham is 30 he's actually a boomer and is making fun of the internet in that one song of his bc he wasn't 'raised' by it and it's like. you know the internet existed before 2008, right? like it was very much usable
You can’t tell me dial-up was useable
dial up was worse in so so many ways but to say that the internet wasn't a thing or that thousands of people didn't use the internet every day when dialup was a thing isn't true, especially considering neopets even launched in 1999, when bo would have been 10. the internet just didn't have as many pictures or all the types of files and bandwidth it does today.
forums and IRC chats thrived during this time and even past that, broadband started in the early 2000s. 'dial up' WAS usable in the way that 1mb of data was usable when we sent astronauts to space. it was usable in the way that the gameboy advance had games that topped out at 16 MBs. my phone can take pictures that are twice that amount now. it was usable in the way that we had myspace and the way that despite the modern internet 'started' around 2009, there was so so much more prior to that and thousands of people who are now thirty did grow up with dialup, and were raised by an internet that doesn't exist anymore in the way it does now.
when an entire webpage is 2mb, a dialup speed is pretty usable, all things considered. things not being instantaneous like they are now doesn't mean they weren't usable. they just worked with what they had.
bitch not only was it usable it was BETTER, it was before every website was run on algorithms and scrubbed to the cleanest, blandest, most conformist possible degree before shoving ads and sponsored content all throughout. it was before the internet was "profitable" so it was honestly more user friendly because it was built for and by users and not as, essentially, marketing platforms
In 2002, before Google maps, a random Dutch fellow found my house randomly with me only telling him the town I lived and that I lived on a street corner (to be fair, the town only had 4 Street corners) but not was I shocked when he MSN Messengered me "Do you live in a yellow house?" They then provided a link to a picture a crop duster had taken when flying over my house randomly the previous year.
It was wild.
But yeah, my dad was playing Hearts online with strangers back in 1996. I was downloading really shitty turn based strategy Games that vaguely resembled command and conquer around the same time.
The internet is old and it was a much better and much worse place back then
I want it back tbh. Not dialup but the culture of the mid 2000s-~2010 internet. It was way better. Less bullying from within, and much easier to track random anon trolls back to their lairs when their ISP just SHOWED UP in every comment.
WHERE IS MY FUCKIN GEOCITIES WHERE THE FUCK DO I GET TO SET UP A BASIC-ASS WEBSITE FOR FREE AND NOT PAYING GODADDY 48 JILLION DOLLARS CUZ YOU USED TO BE ABLE TO *DO* THAT
And if we can plug away a little artifact of that early internet... enjoy this 90's instructional video with us prattling over it.
Marvel at things now long-dead, like having a choice in which internet provider you want to use.

...maybe MST had the right idea. Oh well!
In Chapter 9, a buncha rocket-adjacent stuff happens, and Cody nearly dies!
