Guess who got the Switch 2?

I was originally super hesitant but one of my fiance's friends gave us an invite code and might as well grab one before it gets 100 times more expensive post-terrifs.

Sorry, gotta be serious again.

Because of OSA/KOSA, Bluesky is completely unuseable in Mississippi, choosing not to force id checks upon it's users but having their hand forced to completely block it.

I think it's time to start talking VPNs, I suggest either gettimg Mullvad and ProtonVPN, Mullvad being one of the few completely anonymous VPNs and Proton being basically the only VPN with a free tier that isn't a scam.

I'll be adding a full privacy list on my digital resources page.

I DON'T HAVE SKIN CANCER!!!!!


Ok for anyone who forgot or just didn't see it when I talked about it last, I got an abnormal mole not too long ago that I was concerned may have been cancerous, but there wasn't reallu much I could do since I lack insurance. Well yesterday I went to the state fair which had free skin cancer screenings and they told me I'm all good! I should still keep an eye on the off looking mole but at this very moment I don't have skin cancer!

I did still wonder around the fair a bit though, it was ok, I only really cared about the small creative business section that, as some of you probably would suspect, had a fuck ton of AI generated bullshit.
I'd describe the whole event as very uh, "stereotypical middle age white womancore", girlboss type ai generated t shirt, so many hair clips, a lot of The Orange Man, and any clothing with actual soul was boho or mega southern.

But I managed to scout out one singular booth who had a lot of pride stuff and sensory friendly stuff and bought a knitted fidget mushroom guy from them, adorable, super hope that they didn't get thaaat many people weird about what they were selling. They had tiny heart knitted plushes of pride flags, some of more obscure identities too.

Day 1 of trying to cut my YouTube addiction bc Youtube is being a pussy and kneeling down to KOSA!!

Started mostly to boycott but continuing because I realize I'm way too psychologically dependant on my funny little videos.
Also technically started yesterday but I was working for most of the day so it really wasn't that hard. Today however will be.


My sensory issues are at a high and it feels like my brain is bugging out at very minimal input, I think it's because I worked yesterday which is supposed to be a day off but because my work refuses to increase my hours I had no choice but to pick up the shift.

So, for awhile I've been wanting to do this thing where I just pick up a random CD from a record store and listen to it completely blind with at most looking up the genre before-hand if I can find anything, with the money limit being 10 bucks or lower so I don't waste too much money if I hate it. (Even then, I live next to a fuck ton of 2nd hand stores, I can sell it if needed.) Did it for the first time yesterday and HOO BOY DID I GET AN INTERESTING START.

So, I'm browsing the CDs and I spot this cover:

Clearly politically loaded, called "Made in America", very grungey, from 2003 so there has to at least be something related to 9/11 in here, only 5 bucks, I need to know whatever the fuck this is about.

The music is fine, very typical "politician bad, rich people bad", screams "we were heavily inspired by Pearl Jam and a little bit of Tool"

I decide to open up the sheet with intention to read the lyrics...

BOOM, ILLUMINATI 9/11 CONSPIRACY JUMPSCARE!!!!!!!!!

NO SHIT, THEY HAVE A FUCKING LIST OF "OCCULT GREEDY LOCATIONS" AND A LIST OF "ILLUMINATI BLOODLINES" for those who know about these types yes they do infact have the Kennedys and the Rockefellers on said list. These guys are some of the OGs of batshit insane conspiracy theories holy shit.

They also have a long list of random shit for an ideal world that I can't read very well but one part I could read is how hemp (weed) should be legalized because "God put all seeds and plants on earth for us"

Thankfully they SEEM to be more "I'm not brainwashed enough to think the government is good but I'm brainwashed enough to think that the bad in the government is hidden" conspiracy theorist rather than "I'm a nazi fascist using these theories to justify my ideology" conspiracy theorist.

BUT I can't find shit about them online, they had a website but it's completely gone, I can't find shit about any of the members, they're on Spotify and YouTube but both pages look completely auto-generated and is are fused with 2 entirely different bands called "Poker face"

It also doesn't help that the band is fucking called "Poker face" thus I just keep finding Lady Gaga.

I'm probably gonna re-sell this album, but god this was fucking fascinating to find.
