When colonization came to call in the US, many folks wrote about america as a pristine Eden whose forest were filled with delights and bounty. This was because indigenous folk (Like mine) built up food forest. Things that were razed and destroyed as a part of racist violence. Colonization is ongoing

I'm a mound

The schedule for @roguelike.club is up! We’ve got yet another stunning lineup with multiple people who are such a good fit I had assumed they’d spoken already 🤣 Time is fake and it’s just over two weeks until the con so check it out, buy a ticket, come hang out!

The lineup is so good!
I went 👀 seeing that @everest.bsky.social will be doing "a retrospective of video game holes." Their 2023 presentation on gardens is one I still think a lot about.

they're scrub jay eggs!

Scrubjay is still early, messy in some places (and not chasing seamless UI regardless) but I hope you'll enjoy playing with this very personal web gathering tool.

Handcoded in HTML, CSS and Javascript and running locally, Scrubjay is usable for research, collection, game-building, website construction or simply to hold little fragments of digital things, in the same way that you hold a pebble in your palm on a walk.

I'm very please to announce a public release of my drag-and-drop bookmarking, game-making, and wandering tool Scrubjay! Scrubjay is a weird website builder that lets you cobble together web elements, images, links, text fragments, etc into a series of nested rooms...

"SCRUBJAY" sits over a bunch of images of frogs, birds, doors. it's a very 90s look

you hear no news; read no gazettes; extras with startling accounts of commonplaces never delude you into unnecessary excitements; you hear of no domestic afflictions; bankrupt securities; fall of stocks

@everest.bsky.socialSep 21, 2026, 11:31 PM

wait no way!! ambiguity program in real life!

@everest.bsky.socialSep 21, 2026, 4:47 AM

that's me. i'm the one who famously said "a computer must always be held accountable,"

@everest.bsky.socialSep 21, 2026, 4:46 AM

i read this before breakfast. it's the third one like it this week. they are always signed by a "founder", even if the project is like, a music album

@everest.bsky.socialSep 21, 2026, 4:44 AM

the first thing i read today had the subject line "I built a jail for AI. Thought this might be your kind of weird". it was a pitch for someone's (art?) project where they made a website for AI models who committed crimes to larp with you as if they were on death row

@everest.bsky.socialSep 21, 2026, 4:41 AM

i think i have to take my email off my website because the "ask claude to generate a list of 1000 people to email about my new project" boys are delivering the world's worst takes directly to my inbox

@everest.bsky.socialSep 21, 2026, 4:17 AM

i looked it up and wish i hadn't
