New year's resolutions:
- read more books (aiming for at least 1 a month on avg)
- do at least 1 knitting project (finished or at least halfway, depending on size)
- song of the day! (I used to do this but lost the habit during a bad time a while back. But it was fun so I wanna do it again)
Posted two chapters of a fanfic I've been working on for ages. Nervous about it. Pointedly ignoring my tablet (used it to post the fic). Gonna have a glass of milk and then try to go to bed. I only just now realized how late it is. Mistakes may have been made.

Using genAI for concept art is so fucking stupid because like... that's where you get the cool shit. Thats the blue sky phase where artists make pieces of art that will be seen by a teenager later and change their life forever. Why would you want to start from mediocre. Why would you do that.

boy does "the use of AI led to pushback but everyones on board now" have some dark implications i do not like
Disappointed to hear that the CEO of Larian studios is, in fact, a CEO, and treats AI like a CEO does.

AI for concept art may seem innocuous, but that stuff is important and often gets reused in games as background or loading screen art.

And it’d be nice if the game wasn’t guided by slop.

There are cold hard facts.

Never use AI-generated imagery as placeholders.

ID LAWS FALL! You all are doing amazing! This is why you call your reps and make your voice heard, why you support groups fighting for free speech.

Keep this up and we can tear the rest down!

Netchoice won their legal battle against Age verification in louisiana! This follows similar rulings in AK and OH!

This is huge!

These laws can be stopped, they can be overturned. Do not give in to dooming! Keep calling your reps and support orgs that fight these laws in court!

Just realized that I was on my way to sleep until I thought about all the writing I've managed to do recently and got really excited about it. My little stories about my blorbos.

So maybe it wasn't the energy drink, it's just that I got possessed. By the spirit of "holy shit I do know how to write"

Decided to try an energy drink bc it had a cool looking can and an interesting flavor name (wtf is "cosmic stardust" supposed to taste like?) and I just want more drink options. Bought it yesterday and tried it after dinner. At like 7. My dad was like "you sure you wanna drink that *now*?" --

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

every time there's some generational piece of narrative media and everyone is like this fucks extremely they interview the creator and they're just like "yeah i didn't know if it was good or not". Just goes to show that you can never experience or judge your own work since ur the one who made it

this field biologist does a great job highlighting the insidiousness of AI editing

these one-click AI edit buttons are incredibly appealing to many photographers, amateurs and professionals alike, and are framed as innocuous

this is worth sharing and educating people about

Since Polygon is leaving it out of the headline: Epic Games partnered with The Game Awards to put money into the pocket of a bigot who uses her wealth to further the genocide of trans people through lawsuits and legislation. Every 'free' game gives money directly to JKR, and they are complicit.

Once again people should have listened to sex workers, fosta/sesta was the beginning of successfully eroding section 230 and every year since then they have tried to further erode the law that made the internet what it is today. I cannot encourage people to learn about the history of sec 230 enough
Sen. WHITEHOUSE: We finally are moving to file a bipartisan Section 230 repeal bill. Waiting any longer serves no useful purpose.

it feels performative to say "if you're a hateful person, unfollow me", but genuinely- if you're still doing Harry Potter apologia, remove yourself from my space, or announce yourself so i can do it for you. further, i would advise you to remove yourself from all other social spaces you're in.
