having trouble making sense of how many people who are furious about ai seem to post a lot about playing arc raiders

Oh great, the Jake Paul memes have turned into the stupid 'woman moans at man about cost of Warhammer minis'. Do we have to do this every time? 😩

I thought we were over this sexist shit that makes a joke about lying to our partners.

Regular reminder that I am trying to build a corps of new Youtubers to cover indie RPGs. If you have any desire to do this, please let me know and I will give you what little knowledge I posses.

this rules because its the nail in the coffin of the agentic ai promise and they're just saying it out loud. if prompt injection works on a browser it works in a codebase or its documentation, it works in excel documents, it works when calling people on the phone. LLMs are just a nothingburger

we lost my father in law, a huge rush fan, this summer, and my wife works in tabletop, so i hunted through the rush discography, discovered a vinyl release that features a d6 on the cover, and snagged it
My fav question time of year: What’s the best gift you gave this year?

men are so sensitive to their own bodily autonomy they put testicles on their fucking cars but believe they're entitled to watch a mother cradle a suffocating baby until it dies because that's "more humane"
“Miss, do you agree with the sign?”

“Absolutely not. My great niece was 4 months pregnant and her fetus had no skull. And because of men involving themselves in women’s bodies she was forced to deliver the fetus… there’s a reason God created medicine.”🔥

I think Ebenezer Scrooge could have been in an even better mood the next day if the ghosts jerked him off.

This is an excellent deal, hire Luna!
Okay let's do this again. Emergency graphic design commissions. Simple stuff only (i.e. title treatments), starting at 30 US dollars without revisions.

It's this. It's the continued use of Twitter. It's wokescolding on social and never moving beyond softball questions in interviews. And claiming ignorance means we can't even rely on you to investigate your own tools.
Once again for the dense: warning us about the dangers of fascism from your Substack tells us you’re not willing to do the work you’re telling us we need to do.

All of your excuses are bullshit.

2025 was an unreal year for me as a painter. I pushed myself harder than I ever have before and took three silver ribbons and had my first museum sale to the wonderful Verko's Vault, adding my Trench Crusade Artillery Witch bust to their collection.

it's odd that game studio CEOs don't understand that one of their greatest capitalist concerns - piracy - is not really possible to address when they're committing theft themselves by utilizing gen ai, why would people pay for stolen ideas

As Bluesky has grown, I've seen a lot of backsliding on alt text. Please try to be considerate to others and include alt text with all of your images. It helps everyone. Indeed, in the "accessibility" setting in Bluesky you can set it to make sure you add alt text, which is a useful thing to do.

for current projects in 40k it's votann/death guard for the space dwarf and nurgle vibes, but my heart belongs to anti imperialist fallen angels and the orks

fantasy, it's probably skaven or hashut, if you use weird fucked up tech and you love being underground you're my dawgs
