"people can still download your art from bsky and feed it into AI" if gamer behavior has taught me anything, just one extra button press is more than enough to annoy a MASSIVE amount of people into not making the effort

you lose nothing being a nice person. say something kind to someone today. build someone up who needs help. carve out a few minutes to offer some support. it doesn't take anything away from you to hand out a few sincere words. I'm not asking you to sacrifice anything but to give selflessness a try.

This is the part that angers me.
There are legitimate applications for VR, LLMs, and, if we ever develop it, AI--but because the moron techbros only want to misuse them for the dumbest shit possible, the baby's gonna end up going with the bathwater.

Cisgender women keep winning and confirming that all this hatred and exclusion of trans people is almost solely the domain of morally reprehensible men (a techbro owns this league).
This wouldn't even be a gendered hobby if certain men weren't incredibly creepy about women wanting to take part.

The death of Flash basically killing an entire segment of independent and free game development overnight is one of those things that never really gets spoken about, which is a real shame because a lot of that first generation of Newgrounds talent did break into the animation and games industries.
I genuinely think kids in the mid-to-late aughts growing up on emulators (read: piracy) may genuinely have been far, far healthier for the future of the industry than all the kids growing up on stuff like Roblox being the norm.
THIS SHIT'S GOTTA BE RUINING KIDS EXPERIENCES WITH GAMING FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

The average American income is below the poverty line in almost every major city. If you want people to shop, you need to pay them enough money that they can spend some of it. There is an actual limit to how many hours a day a person can work.
If you want people to spend more, pay them more.
