you always have to consider your audience when doing a bit. i would never do my "i would be a really good cult leader" bit on wider social media because that doesn't properly seed the idea that i'm making the moves necessary to become one. in smaller groups, this is way more effective

2 years ago i was working a cash register at a store with a deli counter and i watched as someone's EBT card declined because their sandwich was toasted and that was a real "what the fuck is this system" moment
Most people don’t know that with SNAP you are banned from buying “foods that are hot at the point of sale”. So even if you have SNAP (which people don’t now) you can’t get cooked food. Which means you need to also actually have the resources to PREPARE a “healthy” meal.
Thinking about the social stigma against eating fast food in a country where poor people are being starved by the govt, the cost of groceries and fresh vegetables are astronomical, and a cheeseburger at McDonald’s costs $3.50.
“Clean” and “healthy” eating rhetoric is racist, ableist, and classist.

Because SE's QA people are probably not in a position to defend themselves and their jobs in public, I want to spell out some of what it is they specifically do for us localizers, because nothing I've written here is rhetorical. SE QA acts as a final check on our work after translation and editing.
You don't need me to tell you this is yet more good money being burned after bad. But as someone who's worked with that QA team, I'll say they're unsung heroes who truly play a huge role in maintaining SE's reputation for high quality locs and to attempt to replace them with AI is deeply insulting.
Square Enix wants 70% of its QA work to be handled by generative AI by the end of 2027, in partnership with the University of Tokyo's Matsuo-Iwasawa Laboratory. https://bit.ly/4qKdyQR

it will always be funny to me that the My Hero Academia arena fighter has taken the nuclear option of removing the long ass 45 second cutscene supers entirely to make the game less of a drag to play when that kinda stuff is how the casual market engages with the game ("all supers" comps on yt)

If you're wondering how this will go Square Enix handed off their mobile Octopath game to NetEase who immediately started using ChatGPT to translate everything resulting in text like this. When players complained they started asking fans to fix their translations in exchange for in-game currency

unfortunately the "so anyhow" here is among the funniest things i have ever read. insane page-long list of names to glorify this one guy and then he goes "yeah so i know you tuned out of that, let's get back to the real story". what a choice

this movie is starting to settle into "it's not perfect but i simply don't remember the things i disliked nearly as much as i remember the things it got perfectly right"
i think most of my issues with this movie stem from the changes to the frame narrative and the way they handle Victor specifically, which i think felt a little strange at times. still, it hits every necessary note and there are parts of this that are genuine perfection, so i'm willing to overlook it

watching the PBS livestream of Cuomo's Fat L Party and they announced Cuomo was about to speak followed immediately by playing Sweet Child O' Mine and I almost choked from laughing thinking about "THIS FAILED MAYORAL CANDIDATE IS AN ESSENTIAL WORKER"

wait they revealed halloween alina and she has a fucking Jojo's punch flurry as her ult. they might have a chance
they have released 4 madokas, 2 sayakas, 3 mamis, and 3 homuras
the only other character (of, like, 40 others) in the game who has an alt is iroha, who got one for her in-story powerup that used to be a gameplay mechanic every character could access.
"nostalgia bait" is not a strong enough phrase
