Presenting my latest #photography collection: This World Is Not Real

https://wolfgirl.dev/blog/2026-04-29-this-world-is-not-real/

i worked very hard on it, hope u enjoy :)

#digitalphotography #abstract

normalization of the 40 hour work week was a mistake

weeded the yard, went grocery shopping, and got the homelab migrated to the new fiber connection :>

it's my day off I CAN DRESS AS SLUTTY AS I WANT

honestly if you're not doing the Great Work and making pacts with ancient gods and spirits in 2026 how the fuck do you expect to make it out of the near-future

beeeeep =w=

#dollctl updates incoming later inspired by some different than usual workloads

i got a job at the food co-op, and i start monday ^^

finances are still really tight and i need a bit of help to make ends meet over the next couple weeks; whether you can boost this or throw me a few bucks, i appreciate any assistance

#mutualAid

"You're going to-", a slit throat for good measure but really, it was the arrow. You resume these small, sufficient priceless things that make up your life. They'll be back.

See, I told ya, here they are again, they've brought trinkets, cameras to capture our strange ways, but really, more often than not, diseases that rot the mind and body. That arrow shut him up good, "You're going to be left-". We didn't let him finish, yes! That's what we want, please leave us behind. Back to the treeline.

And here they are again, are you fucking kidding me, "-going to be left behind" the word of god, it's god damn missionaries now. Yes please! Only you won't let us. More arrows.

the flow dictates tlc maintenance and feature additions to #ryudo

aww i was really hoping ERP Systems Developer meant.. yknow ^^;

OH: it [the software] must be good to get the Iris stamp of approval

vivaldi 7.9 goes hard, the autohide UI is really slick :>

#hardpasta has done it again

i will be a little late starting my stream today, was running around all morning and gotta make tea+snack before i settle down

thoughts and feelings in the dark | https://nilfm.cc/chrono_annihilation.html

my advice remains timeless: simple apps have less that can go wrong, thus less which can be potentially exploited.

tldr im dirt poor- https://lightcrystal.systems/support

so i redid my budget and things are looking really rough.

as it is, im definitely not making it to iwp9, and i need an influx of a few hundred dollars to safely make it through the month and pay may's rent. let alone pay child support.

if anyone has need of a systems, application, and web programmer who's really good at c, go, c#, posix shells, TSQL, mongoDB, JS/TS, semantic HTML and modern CSS i could really #getFediHired about now, even for a short term contract.

or if you can toss me a few bucks in #mutualAid, every little bit helps

stay real, honknet

There's gotta be some sort of diagnosis for a person (me) who spends a 3 day weekend perfecting their Void linux install image, finally gets everything perfect and thinks "hrm, maybe I should've given Slackware a shot instead"

this is crazy, they are transparently tightening the noose for the death of digital privacy

so im trying a thing. in 2 hours (noon Mountain) i'll be streaming kuro development at https://twitch.tv/cyberdragonmaid for a few hours. Current agenda is writing tests for the core text editing code.

Drop by and hang out, i will also be streaming my music on a separate stream (the radio social link on the twitch channel) so you can jam with me.

someone on signal shared this and i felt it was giving 100r or merveilles. so here u go

“The UI is clean. The API is RESTful. The architecture diagram is beautiful. The outputs are wrong. Nobody checks because nobody on the team knows what correct outputs look like. They’ve never looked at the data. They’ve never computed a baseline.”

debugging and testing the code you wrote in a manic episode is less fun than writing code in a manic episode x_x

i have no work lined up currently despite my best effort to the contrary. any leads or donations are appreciated 🖤

#kuro updates

• node lifetime supervision with auto destruction of associated 9pfs is working
• buffered reads of large files are implemented
• framework for executing arbitrary text is implemented

the main pieces of the backend that still need implementing are the auto generation of the text in TAG and EXE panes, the plumbing client, and Look (find) and Edit (sam style regex) opcodes. regardless i think now is a good time to write the unit tests around the core functionality

It'd be nice as an industry to have something in between 'vibe coding' and 'artisanal burnout'

reluctantly gets dressed

blade or die =w=

ok the show last night was pretty tight. danced a lot. ppl liked my set despite the fact that my super knob didnt work for about 90 seconds and my laptop was not at the right height to comfortably mix (i usually bring a stand but i parked a couple blocks away from the venue so i didnt this time- never again).

the pre show is very poppy, idk if they ready for this

really satisfying when the output of mk has 0 warnings;

test harness and unit tests soon for an actual quality signal tho

fishnets

implemented undo and redo in #kuro. it's probably horribly inefficient. i'll worry about that later if i see problems in testing.

i have most of the text editing primitives done and the 9pfs connected to the data structures.

next up:

• implement file read operations. it's gonna be chunked data
• write tests to validate and debug the 9p server
• start working on the UI

the tedious but satisfying phase of building out the text editing primitives of kuro as opcodes :>

IN THIS HOUSE

WE STAND FOR THE (REAL) GIRLFLAG

AND SUPPORT THE GIRLTROOPS

@MURRUMUR few know this but this is what the tranny flag was originally meant to symbolize. it is a NATO psyop making trannies into pawns of neoliberal neoimperialism. that's why I only salute the REAL girlflags!!

lewd ish

Dragon cuddle pile hord.

Hey everyone. I'm about to finish my in-progress contract and I've got availability for more work. I build desktop and web software, design and build websites, and do other stuff like digital archiving and tech education[1].

Alternatively, if you think the software I build is cool[2], and can spare a few bucks, donations[3] go a long way.

Financial goals right now:

• child support
• May's rent
• new tires for my van so I can safely make it to iwp9

has any neo-thrash band ever done it better than Vektor jfc

even with the 9pfs i still need to keep stdin and out on hand so i can

• send a byte to tell the window to reread some data out of the 9pfs or terminate itself
• know when the window is closed so i can destroy its 9pfs

this is gonna be really cool tho ><

New World Chaos 8: Neo Dorothy Motherfucker | https://nilfm.cc/mixes.html

i'm not leaving my house till i get a perfect(ly satisfactory) recording of nwc8

redesigning the 9pfs for kuro, very excited but it's gonna involve implementing some more heavy duty xrxs modules than the ones i built so far ><

how it feels to inject estradiol and drink a monster and take melatonin the same day

i promise nwc8 is still happening, i recorded another run yesterday and its sounding really fucking good

Free yourself from the bondage of time and place and status
For what peace do they give?
What truth do they reveal?
What lie do they live?
Whose blood weeps from these wounds?
Detach yourself!
Detach yourself!

For there is a war
Deep in our hearts
And that's where all battles ought to be fought
Come here
Lower your eyes
And surrender

happy saturday :>

update from my side of the world- ive been fortunate enough to get another short term contract and a gracious donation this week but im still about $100 from making April rent without dipping into my savings. if youve got another gig to keep the ball rolling or a few bucks to spare please help a girl out

xrxs v0.6.0: i hope you like plan9 C | https://nilfm.cc/xrxs.html

Taro v0.3.0 is here! New stuff:

• uf2 support (includes a monospace version of Geneva which makes the mscan output look nice)
• the order of the theme colors follows the standard
• scrollbars are pixel-perfect and the mouse pointer is a bit nicer
• search and pending indicators are gone; search button stays hilighted when search is active; pending indicator is not needed with the synchronous architecture
• new architecture! the backend uses the xrxs framework to expose a 9p filesystem, which the uxn instance reads and writes to
