shaun is so damn good

This really sums up how I feel, damn. I basically never use or interact with social media in general but I don’t understand how people have the energy to stir up so much drama all the time.

It’s become this vicious circle where I log in here only to see a handful of basic shitposts and endless threads about the most recent thing that got people endlessly riled up? How many truly good faith, active, post-or-comment-every-day users do we have at this point?

I’d say I feel guilty but while I’m sad to not have a source of chapo content anymore, at the same time why take the effort to make good content if some bullshit shitpost or wrecking will overtake it? I’m sad.

The community manager for among us is Victoria Tran, she used to work at Kitfox games and has always been cool and good

I fucking loathe Wicca. So I’m looking through Pinterest for ancient history pagan stuff for a thing at work, and anytime you type in “ritual” something Wiccan pops up.

TLDR; around the 40’s some british creep wanted to molest young women and so took a ton of pagan, celtic and world ritual knowledge, mashed it together into something resembling a spicy version of christianity and called it a day. It butchers so many world myths and includes so much garbage like a super present man-stronk/woman-feeling dichotomy, what-you-do-will-come-back-to-you-three-times guilt based crap, a rigid hierachy with obviously him at the top, etc.

A shitton of stuff we interpret as pagan or witchcraft-adjacent (even the word coven!) has leaked culturally from Wicca, which is either pulled out of thin air or sourced from super historically disputable material. Nowadays, Wicca permeates any pagan or witchcraft ressource to an extent that it’s impossible to find ressources or info that isn’t under some weird anglo molester lens. big RIP

honestly that is absolutely the way it should be and trying to imitate the reddit layout with the current user base is a little off-kilter

Have you tried using game engines as an animation tool? A lot of people find it helps for smaller teams.

Coincidentally, there are much spookier Beksiński paintings than this one so get ready for 2021

Hah, I actually reached out to him some years ago and had a bit of a chat. I ought to send him another email now that I’ve graduated and spent some time in the machine.
