    One must imagine Sisyphus Pogging.

    Around late summer or possibly early autumn of 2023 CE, the Lemmeans seem to have changed the style of their memes. We see here the artist has used a traditional black-figure technique for the pot, but appliquéd a cogent, satirical comment on top of it. I think its important to note the extent to which this harkens back to the tradition of notation amongst potters of the centuries BCE, who would write the names of their characters above them to inform the viewer, or note the result of a game of dice played between two well known heroes. In much the same way, we could imagine an image of Achilles dragging the recently deceased body of Hector around the walls of Troy, with the word ‘Poggers’ inscribed carefully above him to indicate the intent and the spirit with which he pierced the ankles of his fallen enemy. So too, we could imagine a scenario where where Priam comes to parlay with the notoriously angry Greek not clothed in the cloth of night, but in the garb of a funeral director - in much the same way as in nineteen ninety eight, when the undertaker threw mankind off hеll in a cell, and plummeted sixteen feet through an announcer’s table.

    Twitch was good once. Hell, instagram was good before Facebook bought it. Heed the warning, every social media has been corrupted by capital. And they will come for Lemmy, too.

      They will come but Lemmy has tools to defend against it. There’s no central authority to sell Lemmy. Anyone can spin up their own instance and any instance can defederate with a corporate one.

    A visitor? Hmm… Indeed, I have slept long enough. The kingdom of heaven has long since forgotten my name, and I am EAGER to make them remember. However, the blood of Minos stains your hands, and I must admit… I’m curious about your skills, Weapon. And so, before I tear down the cities and CRUSH the armies of heaven… You shall do as an appetizer. Come forth, Child of Man… And DIE.
