 I've used it a bit, frankly more than I've played Minecraft in multiplayer. I
 was around before they added enchanting tables, and I've barely touched it
 since xD xD

 these two things took me all evening. I played some video games too. I put
 them in one so you don't have to see so many of them.
a picture of a page from the bicycle notebook.  first part is a collection of brainstorming and diagrams drawn in pursuit of Raleigh, my stab at artificial intelligence.  It's not done yet, in fact it's hardly even a design. It's more like, a thought in the mind that is slowly evolving to adapt to challenges that it might face when being implemented.  and sometimes it's like, beautiful architectures that I'm like "what could I do with these?"  anyway then it starts to devolve into kooky-dookerie about halfway through, and the rest of the notes are written in slant-form -> like, instead of reading one-after-another they sorta change tone and intonation rapidly in a cycle - it's super disorienting. Except visually it's like, tilted text, like a picture-frame that's nudged to one side and hanging from it's frame instead of it's wire holding-point.  do blind people often touch paintings? I doubt it, because it damages the painting. Alas, that materials are finite and flawed and degrade and become stone again. Good news though, sometimes pictures can carry meanings that are impossible to describe visually, but not impossible auditorily.  like, the sound of the voice in your head as you read the plaquards at a museum that displays ancient artifacts or bones of massive beasts or gemstones or science experiments or art or culture or mechanical motion displayed like clockwork and hope.  history is one of my favorite. you can find them by the side of the road. they're lovely homes 4 us many fediverse posts placed into a single image to be passed around as a bundle for people that the viewer decides might want to see them - y'know, like an artwork.

 It's a script I wrote that downloads and configures MTG-forge, the free and
 open source version of Magic. It's a little old, a little jank, but you get
 all the cards for free. All the way up to the most current expansions.
 
 Multiplayer is a bit harder than Arena, I think it's bugged or something, but
 it's great for testing out decks against a computer. If I like one then I'll
 usually buy it to play with my IRL friends.

 You're welcome! I forget how, but there's a way to change the settings such
 that each player has more "rubber" and I recommend doing that because it makes
 it more forgiving and allows you to make a few mistakes without dying

 screenshot directory somewhere other than where I almost posted them.
 
 and all they saw were the outtakes.
 
 I bet they'd see a completely different point of me,
 
 but they never talk to me
 
 so they don't know me.
 
 oh well, alas, it's fine I'm sure I'm being designed.

 oooo those are cool, but it didn't have the "puzzlepiece" arrangement. It was
 more... 2 dimensional I think? More like putting marbles on a chinese-checkers
 board. And they had relationships if you moused over them, like...
 semi-transparent arrows connecting them I think? It was different than
 anything I'd ever seen before.

 I realized the reason it's so difficult for me to get into a new video game is
 because my perfect game existed at one point, but no longer, and all else
 pales in comparison.
 
 The make-believe games of children are without equal. They represent our inner
 truth and desires, cast upon the canvas of our experience through the outputs
 of imagination and physical exertion.
 
 I'd spend my time as a child wandering through the forest with a stick in
 hand, climbing on things and exploring. I grew up in Wyoming, and the forests
 there look like this:

 this is how I write trello cards or tickets.
 
 and yes, before you ask, modding this game is a constant struggle because the
 mod tools are... minimal... so you must work around various challenges by, for
 example, adding 1680 different "events" that must be checked every single turn
 for every single province on the map.
A trello card describing a proposed change to a video game mod that has only one person working on it. It's essentially documentation. It is written in a professional style with several sections - the first lists the "current behavior", the second shows the intended behavior (with a small section for the intended effects of the intended behavior), and the third major section lists the proposed solutions in as much detail as possible without writing the code itself.

 something I made a couple [time] ago
A visual of two hard disk drive designs, current design and proposed design.  the current design features a rotating platter where memory is magnetically stored and a "read/write head" (which the author mistakenly labels as a "laser")   the proposed design features many heads all arranged in a spiral outward such that many parts of the disk can be accessed at once. This hard drive design seems to be designed for parallel access to data.

A screenshot of a chatGPT conversation  the user asks "How about politically? Are they a radical individual?"  the web search results filtered through a large language model replies: "Based on the public information, there is no public record of Ritz Menardi's political views or affiliations. Their online presence primarily focuses on technology, music, and creative writing, without any indication of radical political beliefs or activities."

 ran out of characters before I realized I needed a content warning. So I
 screenshotted the post and put the text in the alt-text.
"hey I have an idea after BLM let's take all the protestors and shoot them like dogs and throw their bodies in the dump. Then, over the next 4 years, we'll systematically purge the entire city after cutting it off from the outside world and replacing any outside interactions with 300 people on laptops. Then we open the city up to immigrants who don't know any better and we can harvest them for human trafficking purposes."  literally heard a girl get kidnapped outside my window yesterday. I couldn't even get up to look, how could I? They let their kids wander in wide-open territory, how could they not get kidnapped? It's not like the city is safe, after all, all it would take is an unmarked van and three guys with strength.  There is evil in this world. It exists all around us. It is hidden from us by their design. You cannot defeat it without paladins.  I'm a paladin but a grandma could beat me in a fight. I have the will, the faith, the trust, but I am weak. I know what is right, and I know what I cannot do.

 I love the idea of those systems. I haven't built a full game using them but I
 can conceptualize operations within them easier using a framework like that
 versus a game engine like Godot.

 do it in a random color each time! Here's my implementation for viewing txt
 files colorfully:
some bash computer code which first picks a random color, and if the color is a bad combination (like, black front and black back, meaning you can't see the lines of the letters) then it redoes it and tries to pick a better one randomly. It'll keep trying until it gets a correct combination but honestly there's only like one or two bad ones that don't look so great

 ah yes but how could anyone hurt me if I don't make myself vulnerable. It'd
 simply be unfair to play a game without any stakes. But if you insist...

 @user-95 one of the most empathetic people I ever met on VR chat was consoling
 me with their mic off while I was oversharing about some stupid things people
 did to me in the past. things that stupid me thought were okay and actively
 encouraged because I was stupid. anyway when their mic was off their body
 language spoke for them. I'll try that next time.

 I exist now at the height of my gluttony.
 
 I need more to be demanded of me.
 
 I am not afraid to ask for help.
 
 I solve other people's problems before my own.
 
 I have very little insight into my habits and patterns.
 
 My memory isn't great, but I recall details that matter.

 if I had an alternate mirror version of me that was almost exactly the same
 except one of us liked almond butter instead of peanut butter...
 
 I think we could probably manage two universes better than one.
 
 it'd be nice to have someone who liked every single game that I did.

 once my country elected a fascist I started thinking. I realized "oh, it's
 always been that way, this one just doesn't hide it" and so I started thinking
 about the bread and circuses they so generously provided me.
 
 I miss video games. Sometimes I play for an hour or two but only when I am
 feeling burnt out.
