Tell me about coming to terms with being a sentient satellite and communicating by gravity wave and quantum entanglement. Give me interstellar romances of artificial embodiment with snarky older machines. That premise doesn't need justification. Please give me happy amazing space stations going through incorporation shock together and leave the sublimated meatsack neotribalist violence out of it.

17776 alienates me. It's a lovely premise -- waking up the onboard computers of satellites and getting them to form family units -- that they then ruin by getting football all over it. I don't like sports and I don't like sports fandom. Jon Bois' Pretty Good usually avoids this by being about math in the presence of sports, but I just can't seem to find a comfortable separation here. It also twigs my writer brain. The US won't even exist 18000 year in the future. C'mon.

Hey, @acetone_kitten: https://transitionnetwork.org/news-and-blog/book-review-advertising-shits-head/

Just sent out my first Patreon reward story. 1500 words. I... may actually feel vaguely competent for a day or two. I still have more writing to complete, but for now, gaming. Tomorrow, writing until friends arrive!

Today's thoughts:
I'm angry about RF folding. I should do something with Kaldera and ЧЛОИИ. Turn it into a novel or something. Maybe a furry ARG.
I don't want to be a people. Give me buni paws and transcription software.
Ten years done, twenty-five to go, give or take.
Game tonight. Writing today. Gotta go get my dailies done, get some exercise.

Υ = (d/d(Δ9)) Π
Height is the change in perspective with respect to cannabis, measured in sagans.

Ε = (d/d(Δ9)) Α

Ξ = (d/d(Δ9)) Ε
Jolt or startle is the change in launch with respect to cannabis, measured in watts.

Tonight's foodcrime: homemade split pea soup.

This is criminally easy. Dice bacon, carrots, onions. Fry to crispy and veg is melting. Remove from pot. Add peas, garlic broth, rosemary, pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook for an hour. Put the spurs to it, return extras, and heat through. Serve with cheese toast.

And save the animals.

What could possibly go wrong?

Musical jam of the moment: SpellKast, a Swiss EDM duo.

Their name... may well do what it says on the tin. I will have to experiment later.

@starkatt Here's a little more modern, but got a lot of 80s synth to it: Shatter. As always, gotta share the ice-themed level first, but the whole soundtrack is gorgeous: Freon Station.

@starkatt This one's just funny, 'cause the person who wrote it wanted to write a song mocking everything he hated in EDM and pop music, and ended up writing a really good pop EDM song.

World of Goo's "Red Carpet Extend-O-Matic"

@starkatt Video game music:

You haven't played Talos Principle yet. This isn't a spoiler, not really, but it is music from late in the game: False God.

... can't even type the reference without crying.

"You want me to leave my mate, be in the company of random strangers with whom you don't want me forming the 'wrong' kinds of emotional attachments, perform alien calculations in strenuous mental models for hours a day, for which you will reward me with just enough to not really afford shelter, in hopes that in thirty years, we can quit doing it? And you think my way of life is weird?"

Breakfast with @ElectricKeet on a work day starts the day wonderfully, but it also reminds me just how fucked up our many of our ancestors' and contemporaries' idea of value is.
