This Web ainβt what it used to be #
I found this post from miriam.codes while reading dbushellβs notes. I kinda agree with Miriam and David here. AI is really making me feel like an old curmudgeon. Every day it gets more enshitified, filled with more nonsense, more hate, more βfake newsβ which all news gets labeled as these days, nothing is credible to anyone anymore.
What Iβm here for is still plugging away at my own site, trying harder than ever to find real people with real websites, who write real content that I enjoy. Iβm going to continue staying in my lane, making notes that no one will read, leaving thoughts no one will read, writing blog posts that might reach 10s of people who really care.
YouTube still feels like a safe place. I see more and more AI slop popping up and off, but it doesnβt hit my feed, happy for that so far. I do see a lot of creators using AI thumbnails, Most look obvious, but some feel like uncanny faces of the people I follow and itβs weird. I think I follow the exact average of the 2025 YT watcher, I watch a handful of the top 100 channels, and a bunch of sub 1M average joes. These all feel like people just sharing their story. A lot of them have Orange County Choppers Season 1 vibes, we are just making good content about trying to make it in the world. They havenβt yet descended into the madness that OCC became in its later seasons that was all about building drama that tore the family apart.
Moss Knight from hollow knight home row layout #
I took a break for awhile on the game, my son got bored and moved on. He tends to switch out games a lot faster than me. I came back to it tonight after a few months off and just got some geo from the moss knights for awhile. I got this decent clip of clearing them, Iβm no pro, but getting better at timing on the keeb layout.
