Avid PC gamer, Linux convert, SCP fan.

Love Science Fiction, Cyberpunk, post-apocalyptic settings; Fan of the games of the defunct Arkane Studios. Listening to (Power-, Speed-, Thrash-)Metal, Gothic, Deathrock, EBM, Vaporwave, Lo-Fi; Classic and Musicals are fine too. Can’t stand Hip-Hop.

Owned by two cats, recently divorced, blessed with a personality disorder (AVPD) - pensioned (even the state has the opinion I’m a total wreck lol). This causes me to be unable to keep up personal connections and makes me ghost literally everyone, so if it happens to you, sorry in advance.

Chronically online.

Pro GenAI, but Anti-GenAI-Corpos; this technology should be available to everyone, which would only be fair since we all contributed to it. Datasets and Models should be under the jurisdiction of UNESCO, since they are literally the distilled cultural output of humanity.

  • Some psychologists caution against drawing simple conclusions about the effects of social media on adolescents.
    “The healthiest approach when dealing with adolescents is to accept that we are unprepared,” Federico Tonioni, head of the Web Psychopathology Centre at Rome’s Gemelli hospital, said.

    He added he could not conclude that his patients would suffer less ⁠in a world ​without social networks, warning against over-reliance on parental control.

    “If there is something dangerous, it is control over children. Young people need to be listened to. Control is ​not a healthy form of presence. The healthiest distance is trust.”

    There isn’t anything to add.















  • I would never have cheated if i felt in any way physically appreciated in the years before. The temptation wouldn’t have been there in any way if my ex had show interest in me in any way the months before out breakup - it’s not that i didn’t try to make her as comfortable as possible. I am someone who needs physical appreciation (not even sex - just cuddling would have been enough to feel connected), but that simply wasn’t available, and i latched onto someone who cared about my physical and mental needs. I’m not proud about what i’ve done, but it was simply the trigger that made us both realize we needed different things than what we were offering to each other.




  • I cheated once, in a relationship that had a dead bedroom for years before (her choice), and the moment that happened i walked up to my ex and confessed what happened. She understandably was hurt for a moment, but after some dialogue she realized that this came from a deep sense of feeling abandoned by her, which was the reality of our situation. For her it was always more about parties, concerts and festivals and having someone for that, and when i couldn’t deal with the perma-party anymore, she lost interest in me, while still feeling obligated to not just leave me behind.

    I never watched Desperate Housewives with anyone tho, it was more Breaking Bad and Battlestar Galactica lol, and the pet names were “MausMaus” and “Schatz” - “Mousemouse” and “Treasure”. Nowadays i’d prefer if someone used my real name in a caring way.



  • I really don’t understand why this is so much of a problem in a completely open to sunlight, very shallow pool if the proper precautions are taken. The amount of sunlight/UV coming in at the pool shouldn’t even support such an algal bloom with some proper care like making sure nutrient influx is low or filtered out - they even have an ozone system for the water. Just making sure that not only one type of algae has proper living conditions should fix that shit by natural competition.

    Although i don’t know what the blue paint did to the pool, because i am sure noone tested that before - the scientific method is sadly out in the US.
