I've been meaning to make this post for months now but hey, here is. Some of you may remember I made DVDs of OFMD a while ago. I rambled extensively about it here.

Quick refresher or in case you haven't seen them:

They have disc menues that play Gnossienne Number 5 and have individual episode pictures. Also there's sleeves and discs labels!

Why am I telling you this (again)? Well, I happen to have all the files you need to start your own basement pirate DVD manufacturing career on a burner Google Drive. So if you too wanted to have DVDs of our beautiful show on your shelf at home, you could download the files, grab a DVD writer drive and a bunch of empty DVDs and get right to burning them. No particular skill needed because the files are done and ready to go at a click. There's also a bit of a how-to on there that I hope is helpful for those confused. Piracy ho, friends!

dreaming of building my own stuck-in-wall glory hole in the spare closet of our bedroom again

[postiradeesta]

*SERIOUS POST* For some administrative reasons, looks like this year I won't be teaching at public high schools like I used to do the last year. I just moved two hours away from home and I see this now as an opportunity to bring up my art as my main job.

I studied Fine Arts and I specialized in drawing but I can't stay still so I usually keep jumping between disciplines such as painting, digital art, tattooing, engraving, blockprint, sculpture...

So I reopened my Ko-Fi Shop where I mainly sell ready-made digital products which are meant to custom Twitch accounts and Discord servers for a low price. I'm also open to commissions~

Here are some examples:

As you may know, social media and being seen is really important nowadays for artists and artisans, so I appreciate every way of spreading the word, if you could please help an artist ✌ thank you so much in advance~

I told my momma the day of my tooth extraction that I'm going to start streaming again (I streamed Destiny 1 on Twitch in 2014/2015 on a since deleted account) and, to my surprise, she was (and is) extremely supportive. She said that she has always thought that me doing something free of an office setting would be the best for me. She said anything where I get to be my own boss and be my most authentic self and not be dragged into autistic burnout in a toxic work environment would probably be really great for me. She has always worried about me job hopping and even freelancing because of how it can impact my mental health.

What made me want to cry was that she said, "I want you to do something that makes you happy and keeps you safe and healthy."

Just typing that out has got me in tears again. She is supporting me 100%. I feel supported emotionally and I haven't felt that since my dad was alive. It's been 17 years.

Wanna put this somewhere as I could find no resources about this online and maybe this helps someone.

My partner bought me a stream deck XL for Christmas! I've also been into recolouring and personalising my tools recently, and had a great time recolouring my other stream deck:

So what do I do when a loved one buys me an expensive gift? Vandalise it immediately in the name of 💜self expression💜

But where the smaller device has an easily removed faceplate, the XL did not. There were no screws hidden away, just a very tiny seam separating the plate from the rest of the device. It wasn't clear if it was glued down or otherwise sealed. And it seems nobody else online wanted to risk their expensive device finding out, just for the aesthetic.

But this girl *lives* for the aesthetic.

So I bring knowledge from the frontier, the faceplate is only held on by plastic clips, 4 on each long side, 3 on each short side.

The only tool I found was thin and strong enough to pry at the edges was this thing from ifixit

If you're patient and extremely careful you can lift one clip at a time. I did the bottom long side first (thinking any plastic damage would be less visible) then each short side, then the top I was able to push out.

The faceplate is plastic (unlike the regular SD which is surprisingly metal) so I'll be doing some sanding and priming work before spraying but yeah! I'm just happy I got it off and wanted to let anyone else who wanted to remove their XL faceplate cleanly know that it is possible with some patience and the right tool 💜

Help me decide what to stream for my birthday!

This Saturday I'll be doing a big birthday bash stream, and while I have tons of ideas, I only have so many hours in the day to stream them – and only a week to prepare!

Help me out by picking an option from the poll at the bottom: What would you be most interested in seeing this weekend? Read on and I'll explain our options...

All of my ideas loosely fall into three categories – I could play something multiplayer with friends, I could reminisce on old levels and creations I made long ago, or I could stream something that's a completely new and unique experience. Out of those categories, I've got five standout ideas:

New: Fortune Cookie - If you've ever watched ProtonJon stream, you know what this is. I've collected my entire game library on Backloggery and we'll choose 3-5 random games, then chat votes on which one they want to see. I'll play each game for about half an hour before we pick another set of games for another chat vote. Rinse and repeat! 🥠

Reminisce: WarioWare DIY Showcase - "Showcase" is the WiiWare version of DIY... and I've never played it! This would be a hybrid of new and old, where I'd try out all of the microgames I've never played before, as well as importing and showcasing all of my old microgames from DIY on the DS. Did you know DIY is the game that got me into programming? 👩‍💻

Reminisce: Zeta - At this point I've streamed all of my old Mari0 level packs, except one: Zeta, which was supposed to be the magnum opus of my early Mari0 days. It sits about halfway between New Super Mario World and Retrush in terms of quality, scope, and ideas. Should be a LOT of fun to unpack after ten years~ 🌅

Multiplayer: Tabletop Simulator / Cardé - I made a board game when I was twelve years old that's essentially "extreme chutes and ladders," a race around the board trying to get chain reactions of movement. This would be a hybrid of reminiscing and multiplayer, since I would get to recreate it in Tabletop Simulator... and subject my friends to it! 🎲

Multiplayer: Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed - Transformed is genuinely one of my favorite kart racers of all time, right next to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. I've been dying to play it with friends for a while now – it would make for an excellent birthday party game! I'd have to check in on who owns it and wants to play, but otherwise, it'd be the easiest to set up. 🏎️

So with all of that out of the way...

Blur - Girls & Boys, Coachella 2024, weekend 2 (20 April 2024)

‘Wow... sorry, but for me, that's like... that's the spirit.’

Damon was in a playful mood during this song, wasn't he? Taking full advantage of a slightly more responsive crowd than weekend 1 of Coachella, he got up into the crowd, headbutted a beach ball, was a bit purposely out of time and key to change things up; "spin it if you want: girls sing 'boys', boys sing 'girls'" during the second chorus, and I think he was pleased to be playing with and playing to a crowd that was receptive. Slightly shambolic performance, but isn't that the Blur we know and love.

I noticed only now that Damon's done something I often do (that maybe bums out people 20 years older than me), which is that since I didn't really live through the 90s, out of habit, I've always sung, 'Love in the 90s was paranoid' (instead of 'is paranoid'), and Damon did the same here. Huh.

Anyway, this performance was a bit mad, I hope this wasn't really the last time we see it!

We are supposed to interact with the web we visit. We are supposed to upload and download. We are supposed to leave a footprint behind us, other than cookies and trackers.

The web will not stay still, it is perpetually changing and what we are seeing today may not be tomorrow.

Share your things, comment and post.

But also save what you want to keep : write down the name of the artists you follow, download the content you like to stream, copie/paste the posts you want to re-read... We forget faster than internet but it is still fragile. What you got on a disc is far more durable.

Yeah yeah impossible architecture this, backrooms that, endless hallways and looping corridors, we've all seen it. You know what's really fucked up? What's really terrifying, down to the quick of your soul? A house/building that's almost completely normally but was just atrociously built. All the infrastructure is bad. The planning was bad. An ongoing cascade of bad decisions allowed to reach their dreadful crescendo.

A house with barren walls, no outlets to be seen. Parts cut out of doors and walls because otherwise it would smack into the light fixtures or ventilation ducts. Piping and ducts that cut into each other, somehow. Spaghetti wire that leads to nowhere, abandoned eons past and left to rot and fester. Multiple different crews of people had to actively spend time installing these things. Did they know? Did they care? Could they do anything to stop the tragedy?

And you know, maybe it can take on a supernatural element. Those wires grew and grew like climbing ivy, no goal but to sprawl across the house. A second light switch appears almost completely on top of the previous one, just slightly rotated so you can see the old one underneath. The sharp angles in the ducts get just a little sharper, sharper still until they cut better than your best knives. The appliances sink further and further into the wall with each passing day until the House devours them completely. The pipes are leaking an unidentifiable liquid. Shoddy moulding crackles apart revealing something you'd like to hope isn't raw muscle underneath. Water damage bubbles the ceiling, pops it open like popcorn and millions of tiny eyes stare back. What is it that they're looking for? The termites in the attic are getting louder and louder. The wires creep closer and closer...
