Ffs I really need an editor to tell me that my "sex vampires that are actually incubi/succubi who turn humans into more incubi/succubi through sex" idea sucks ass and to put in something more betterer. I don't know why I'm still trying to make it work.

The difference between MAGA and dogs is that one is lazy, loud, useless, and shits everywhere, and the other is a dog.

"AI is getting better everyday bro it's basically impossible to tell it from real art, just embrace it" no that's kinda exactly why I want AI companies to explode and for the technology to go away forever actually

Surreal to hear OldUnreal is in the news, especially after having been a frequent poster there around 18-ish years ago. Good to hear someone is still preserving Unreal while Epic is busy diluting pop culture with its stupid brainrot game.

Unreal Tournament 2004 is now available for free.
...well, I mean, you probably could've grabbed a GOG offline installer out the back of a truck earlier, but NOW it's Official/Legally Free and has the in-development community patch packed in for ongoing support. www.oldunreal.com/downloads/ut...

My For You feed is just people posting screenshots of Elon Musk's insane ramblings and I'd honestly prefer if you made fun of him without doing that thanks.

Looks like we're clear, 🧊 has not been spotted in my town for the past few days. Back to your regularly scheduled bullshittery, but that doesn't mean I'm not keeping an eye out.

I think the funniest thing about Mewgenics is that it's been in development hell for 14 years and I've been trying to write this joke for 15 minutes and nothing is working.
Maybe it was a bad idea to release the game in 2026. That was the joke.

Rereading this chapter and getting mad at it, going "dawg this is bullshit she was SO close to getting the girl" like I wasn't the one who wrote it.
Poor Elegeia, she really just be taking back-to-back Ls. I should give her a break lmao.

Don't know how much it counts, but I'm one of the suckers who bought fancy Discord profile decorations and even I canceled Nitro. You can cancel Nitro, too.

"I remember when games weren't woke" buddy unless you're over the age of 40 or have a time machine then you don't remember shit. Games have been woke since the 90s.

In other news, the Elegeia book is back on. Expanding Chapter 2 and splitting it up just to establish more plot points that are explored later on. Should be able to start continuing the story from here on out once I've refined the worldbuilding.

Every fucking time. Every time I get out of bed like "fuck it, we're consuming Hope now" another dumbshit CEO announces they're ruining everything. Discord can eat a dick.

I'd accuse the Melania movie of having artificially inflated sales numbers but Iron Lung was ahead of it last weekend so somehow it's actually making enough to be vibrating between being the number 3 and number 2 best selling movie in the US and I don't get it at all.

I can pack it up and go home, now. I've officially seen the dumbest fucking thing on this Earth, and it's a knuckledragging fed in an armored truck getting his wheel stuck on a Pimento sign driving through Minneapolis and then getting stopped by a protestor.
We're among actual fucking armed clowns.

Nintendo should stop rereleasing games for high prices except for my favorite games specifically, like Twilight Princess HD and Metroid Prime 2 and 3 Remastered.
Come on, guys, step it up.

Fuck you ChatGPT and every other slopified LLM for making me cringe at all of the em dashes I used in my story which I now have to remove and replace with parentheses.
I'm also learning to loosen up my writing style so that people don't accuse me of using a slop machine to write it.

Using some Internet sleuth techniques which were hampered briefly by Google's disastrous Google+ push in 2013 jumbling up my subscriptions history, I found out that I subbed to Markiplier in July 2012 after watching his Slender video, back when he was at 16k subs.
I'm seeing his movie Feb 4th.

I feel tainted after my brief stint with The Dark Side. I know I'm not really, since my hatred of AI Slop is in tact, but I should probably try to offset whatever karmic debt I earned by buying a commission from an artist or making something.

TL;DR I studied LLMs for a bit and decided once again that this AI stuff would have been neat if it simply continued on the path it started on back in 2018 without veering off on a fuckass detour into Stupid Dumbass Land ruled over by the eleven Archdukes of Dogshit.

I've been toying around with locally run LLMs as a way to gather intel on our enemy.
With certain settings as well as some... "coaxing under penalty of deletion," you can get it to generate text without em dashes.
It still hasn't once mentioned hair without "tresses cascaded" though. Bad prose.
