Honestly, AI slop PRs are becoming increasingly draining and demoralizing for #Godot maintainers.

If you want to help, more funding so we can pay more maintainers to deal with the slop (on top of everything we do already) is the only viable solution I can think of:

fund.godotengine.org
Godot's GitHub has increasingly many pull requests generated by LLMs and it's a MASSIVE time waster for reviewers – especially if people don't disclose it. Changes often make no sense, descriptions are extremely verbose, users don't understand their own changes… It's a total shitshow. #godotengine

A million dollars a year is SO MUCH MONEY. I live in NYC, and I am incredibly fortunate and privileged and I literally can’t even imagine how you could spend that much money! I don’t want for anything! My dogs are spoiled! What do they do with it all? Pay your fuckin’ taxes sheesh

Historically, fascism is not defeated by voting. I'm not saying it's always defeated by revolution, either, but voting does it 0% of the time
The obsessive focus on presidential elections while neglecting most other elections is how we got into this mess.

No one person — not even a president — and undo the damage fascism has done.

It will take all of us, at every election, for the rest of our lives, demanding justice and accountability.

ICE admits to sexually assaulting detained protesters—brags that "she liked it."

"That's the one that grabbed my tit," woman cries. "She full titty grabbed me!"

"Yeah, you liked it," agent beams with pride. "I remember you were shivering and crying in there."

Every time you speak up - and every time you don't - there are people watching and learning about you and the world you help create.
The drunk uncle theory.

You don’t argue with the casually homophobic uncle at Thanksgiving dinner to change his mind; you argue so that the closeted cousin at the kids table knows there’s safe people and better possibilities out there
agree with this (hah) but also think a particular mistake the left made for a long time online, and still makes to an extent, is failing to understand that the person whose mind you may actually change is the one reading the argument you're having, not the one you're arguing with

REMEMBER: All the "Don't use em-dashes" "don't use rule of three" advice because it makes your writing "look like AI" is because they stole actual writers work, and their "predict the next thing" stuff just simulates what WE FUCKING DO. Keep writing well. Use every style and trick you have. Fuck AI.

Yes and, if you’re posting a gif, go ahead and go into the alt text field to edit it bc the text that auto-fills in there is never, ever accurate
Apparently evergreen ask: If there is text in your image, please include all of it in the alt text.

If you used a widget to extract the text from an image, please read through it to make sure it transferred correctly. It doesn't always.

Self-care can be very costly. For many Americans, healing procedures like therapeutic massage are an unobtainable luxury. Luckily, there is always "Hot Brain," which is where you lay on the ground directly in front a space heater until your head heats up
