!oldstrags ik it was one of you dinosaurs

ok, first of all, why tf aren't they just transparent from the get-go? why do I have to go in and manually remove the solid color smh

2econdly, why are FRICKING SPRITES NOT EVENLY SPACED

I can't go in an spit them because they just threw them in there with all different widths !!!

I had to manually keyframe the spritesheet to move around in blender bc that was easier than trying to split it into frames ong fr fr

and there's FRICKING dead space at the end of the line too so the programs that want X rows X columns don't work because it won't devide easily because the guy thought he was clever inserting some ancient butt long forgotten meme

theres no frame of reference you have to pick a point to hold still and that's I assume how we end up with this:

Also it's go time lol.

Working now on putting all of the raccoon sequences into one big, fluid, video. It's at like 20 minutes now though and I don't think people are going to sit and watch the whole thing.

finally we FatCHADS of the penile gender are getting some representation! !foidmoment

How does a 27-year-old fail to kill an 80-year-old with a samurai sword?

Probably by trying to do it from first principles.

It might be time for me to take my assorted SFBA Rationalist Cult writing and put them on a blog. I'd have done it already but the goddarn fascism just keeps on marching onwards.

Weird to see a community I followed show up so close to home and negatively like this.

I had some coworkers who were really into LessWrong and rationality. I thought it was fun to read some of the selected writings they would share, but I always felt that online rationalist communities collected a lot of people with reactionary, fascist, misogynistic, and far-right tendencies. There's a heavily sanitized version of rationality and EA that gets presented online with only the highlights, but there's a lot more out there in the fringes that is really weird.

For example, many know about Roko's Basilisk as a thought exercise and much has been written about it, but fewer know that Roko has been writing misogynistic rants on Twitter and claiming things like having women in the workforce is "very negative" for GDP.

The Slate Star Codex subreddit was a home for rationalists on Reddit, but they had so many problems with culture war topics that they banned discussion of them. The users forked off and created "The Motte" which is a bit of a cesspool dressed up with rationalist prose. Even the SlateStarCodex subreddit has become so toxic that I had to unsubscribe. Many of the posts and comments on women or dating were becoming indistinguishable from incel communities other than the rationalist prose style.

Even the real-world rationalist and EA communities aren't immune, with several high profile sexual misconduct scandals making the news in recent years.

It's a weird space. It felt like a fun internet philosophy community when my coworkers introduced it years ago, but the longer I've observed it the more I've realized it attracts and accepts a lot of people whose goals aren't aligned with objectively "make the world better" as long as they can write their prose in the rationalist style. It's been strange to observe.

Of course, at every turn people will argue that the bad actors are not true rationalists, but I've seen enough from these communities to know that they don't really discriminate much until issues boil over into the news.

I've been stuck with these frickers for last few day, so why not put them to some good use and farm a coin or two with their unsolicited pictures.

This is an animal hole, those are some animal pictures. I don't think there is anything to add.
