  1. Fark founder Drew Curtis writes about the state of the Internet today & effects on Fark: > “The core problem that we can't fix is if people hate the entire news cycle because of stuff, they are going to struggle to want to keep Fark as a daily read.”

  2. TL;DR: the web is dying, Google is helping kill it, the internet fucking sucks, and if you want #Fark to continue to exist: pony up for TotalFark.

  4. Although I've not been a paid #Fark subscriber for some time I still occasionally visit and marvel at the quality of the comments there.

    This article by Fark's founder Drew Curtis
    is worth a read, and points towards a distinctly possible* future** for what was once an open web.

  5. Dang, I'm on a roll. 3 #Fark greenlights in under an hour. Now I'm wondering how many greens I can get in a day.

  7. One good thing about visiting #FARK was getting more stickers for my miniature boxes. 😁

    Some of the artists:
    - Zombietoast (Manta, Vaggi, FCKNZS)
    linktr.ee/zombietoast
    - Redreaming (Squirrel)
    redreaming.de/shopab12a124
    - Fuchskind (Dice Goblin)
    fuchskind.de/

    Win nothing if you can guess the three skirmish tabletops. :)

  9. Ein wirklich cooles Wochenende ist vorüber. Unzählige Bücher haben eine neue Heimat gefunden. Bis nächstes Jahr...😀#sfcd #fark #erlebnisortreden

    And there was a lot of nostalgic stuff at #FaRK that was kinda cool.

    There was a Herby. A Knightrider plus David Hasselhoff cosplayer. The zombie parade had a headcrab from Half Life. There were a lot of post-apocalyptic cosplays, probably thanks to the local FATE larp. A fantasy club was selling old books from one of my favourite TTRPG universes (DSA). ❤️

    So, many reasons to feel nostalgic. But it was more of a "detached niceness" to recognize these things.

  12. On #nostalgia. @futurebird did a bunch of interesting polls and threads on nostalgia a few days ago. They got stuck in my head.

    This saturday, I was very lucky to visit #FaRK, which is a huge fantasy and RPG convention in #Germany. It's also not that commercialized (run by volunteers, no entry fee, lots of cosplayers for the fun of it, mostly small artists).

    So a place very rife for nostalgia, one would think.

  14. Im #Saarland ist dieses Wochenende die #FaRK. Ich war am gestrigen Samstag da, und die Messe war riesig und grossartig und ich hätte da schon viel früher mal hingehen sollen.

    Eintritt ist frei, aber die Veranstaltung ist auch die Anfahrt aus nem anderen Bundesland wert. Und genug Bargrld mitnehmen.

  16. Wir schlugen gestern unser Zelt auf der #FaRK in Landsweiler-Reden auf und haben viele Projekte mitgebracht. Nachdem unsere Technik den Segen eines Priesters des Adeptus Mechanicus empfing, konnte nichts mehr schief gehen.

    Wir sind auch heute da, unter anderem auch als Cosplay Doc. Wenn euch also was klemmt oder zu locker ist, schaut einfach vorbei.

  23. Sieht aus wie KI, ist aber in Echt im Einsatz heute beim Bauer Hirsch - also vor unserer #Steinmetzwerkstatt.

    Am 9. Mai haben wir Tag der offenen Tür. Wenn wir das heute gemacht hätten, hätten alle #Steampunk Fans ihre Freude gehabt.

  24. The headline in the first link is self-explanatory. Sadly I saw the thread after the comment period ended.

    #Fark headline:
    "Fark NotNewsletter: Thanks for link #14 million! Out of all of them, which is your favorite?"
    fark.com/14001850

    My all-time Fark favourite, apart from those I submitted of course:
    "When my cat sits on the kitchen counter, is its bunghole touching the counter or is there some kind of furry thing keeping it off?"

  27. Gerade tierischen Besuch gehabt. Unser grummeliges Haselhorn hat uns besucht.
    OK, das Horn fehlt noch, aber da wollen wir jetzt nicht drauf rumreiten, nicht wahr Markus Heitkamp?
    Kriegt auf jeden Fall meine Stimme für das coolste Cosplay auf der Fark

  31. Today I found out a friend of mine from #fark has passed away. His body is being held at a funeral home less than a mile from where the plane crashed in #philly. It's been a fucking DAY.

    Also, I'm Florida and leaving on the cruise tomorrow.

  33. Geezus what a way to welcome Friday!

    2 rounds 50 minute cap did it in 39. Did get some good stretches done at the end cause boy did I need it.

    Managed to do all 80 hand release push-ups on my toes!

    And I don't like the ski-erg - we are not friends.

    Have a great weekend my friends.

  34. "Could the world stop sucking for just five $@&!ing minutes?! Is that too much to ask? I want to go get a pizza, watch a movie, drink a beer and not have to keep shoving the existential dread down between the cushions."

    - "Good God Lymon" on #Fark

  35. Game 7 of #johnnysexcup tomorrow. That's the Stanley Cup finals for you non-Farkers. I still can't believe Florida has kicked so much ass this year. My poor #njdevils didn't get far.

  36. FFS, I sat down an hour ago to do some work with the #cricut but got distracted by the internet going nuts. A good day (Ice Cube, his ak at rest).

  37. @RickiTarr "Social media for news?":

    Yes, almost exclusively. Occasionally stuff will redirect from there to a more trad website or blog, but social media, in my case #tiktok , has been fantastic for local and international news.

    #youtube is still okay for reposts from some Trad media sites and streaming, as well as niche hobby news. #mastodon seems to be okay for other reports, but it's about as good as an aggregator like #fark

  38. Pretty succinct perspective on #Twitter from a random #Fark user today.

    "People continuing to defend Twitter after Musk's purchase and subsequent mismanagement of it are like people saying how great the punch used to taste before someone took a shiat in it, but they keep drinking it anyway. Saying, "It's what you make of it" now is like saying, "You can scoop out the punch from around the turds and it's okay".

    Yes, I can accept that maybe, for some people, Twitter could have been a good thing at some point. But that time has passed. Elon has taken a dump in the punch bowl. It's time to stop drinking the punch and find something else."
