It's starting to feel at least a little bit like the sun is coming back, so once again I am sky-guided :)

And I'm not talking about outsiders coming in, eff that: I wanna see what people who *live* in these places would do with these buildings. Real subculture and counterculture is grass roots, it withers under established homogeneity of aesthetics and values.
Let there be a new weirdness, many new weirdnesses, across these United States, in all those shuttered, abandoned buildings that capitalism has used up and discarded.

These spaces can, and should be reclaimed for any number of uses, but I can't help but feel like the creation of weirdness, of art, of culture, should be an easy one to get started on. I don't even *like* a lot of the look and feel of Burning Man, but can you imagine what enough bold, creative weirdos could do to an empty abandoned Walmart or movie theater in the middle of nowhere?

Every year in the US, a whole buttcrapload of people go out to the desert, build a giant weird bohemian art city (with a large contingent of ultra-rich silicon valley people also present for kulture kred), then they (to the best of their ability) clean up, leave, and go back to normal (for some definition thereof) life
Its 2018. Like it or not, all over the country, massive areas of enclosed pseduo-public space once devoted to retail commerce are emptying out, never to open again.
I think it's wonderful that there's an alembic emoji.

These hot bowls of miso soup exhibit absolutely beautiful convection cells. You can watch small cells form and gain energy, slowly growing and merging until the whole bowl is convecting as a unit.

I just learned you can make nuclear weapons in Factorio.

Okay I've literally never been interested in running a 5k but the name and premise of this is so funny it's almost tempting.

@starkatt I LOVE FREEWAYS

Fun little mobile game: Freeways
Draw freeway interchanges. Try to be efficient.

Ah yes, polycules: "poly", from the Greek for "many", and "cul", from the French for "butt"
I'm still going on about The Long Dark
Example: I was really aggressively recycling found clothing to keep my own gear in top condition which was *fine* and maybe even correct, but bit me in the ass when an animal attack destroyed my rather nice hats and gloves in a -20C windchill with no shelter nearby and no backup clothing.

It's not "path A or path B" type decisions, but more "will doing this thing to help a short-term need cause massive problems in the medium to long term?"
I'm still going on about The Long Dark
So a thing about this game is that the time between "make a decision" and "realize if it was a mistake or not" can be anywhere between like 30 seconds to a couple of hours. And even when you do get immediate feedback on a mistake, it's often another 10min or more before you can figure out if it's actually recoverable or not.
That's *way* longer than most games.
And it means second-guessing everything in a way that's pretty cool but also kind of intense.
heck I played some of that game to try and relax and now I am actually way more tense.
