And another thing related to my last post?

Yall mfs were way too willing to just roll over and move past BlueSky and the censorship issue.

The moderators are still acting like children.

They're still planning on pushing guidelines that will censor artwork.

They're still not defending trans folk.

this is what i've been saying. swerfs play a MASSIVE role in what's going on here, but so does the "you do fandom in an icky way" discourse. it enables fascists to capitalize by propagandizing their viewpoints as ones that self-proclaimed progressives tend to agree with.
In a lot of ways other leftists chose this path folks. They shrugged and didn’t care when Patreon banned a ton of hypnosis and TF creators, or when YouTube started their ASMR crackdown. Now it’s coming for queer porn creators, more and more. Who will stand up?

ever since I learned about three-cueing I've developed infinitely more patience for replies on social media. mfers literally do not know how to read. people are walking around conjuring random meanings into words they don't know, and they don't know a lot of words. it's crazy

"AI dialogue generation + human personality and tuning could totally transform gaming"

Yeah. And adding lead to gasoline totally transformed the auto industry. Boy that sure turned out well.
Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney has defended AI following Eurogamer's 2/5 Arc Raiders review, which criticised the game's use use of AI voice generation. "AI dialog generation + human personality and tuning could totally transform gaming," Sweeney said.

I gripe about common media literacy and understanding the concept of story[telling] problems, but apparently I'm just an anachronistic relic because these are professional guild writers. Who can't figure out how to connect to old fuzzy continuity or grasp the concept of self-contained reboot arc.

Tip for the GMs, writers, and worldbuilders out there;

Describe beyond just sight.

Yes, it's important to describe what is seen*, but there are so many more senses to use and toy with when setting a scene.

*or isn't, depending on the situation

It's time to figure out if the me from twenty-two years ago had good taste in video games.

I'm gonna be streaming Tak and the Power of Juju in Twitch, shoot the shit with my friends, and chat with...uh. Chat.

Stream starts at 6PM CST, catch you then!

Today's stream is gonna be one of those "Hey does this game hold up at all?" kind of streams.

Y'all remember that GameCube / PS2 game, Tak and the Power of Juju?

Yeah, I'll be playing that tonight, and I genuinely have NO idea how it's gonna stack up.

Maybe I can sketch my way through being exhausted as fuck today.

Because boy lemme tell you, operating on four hours of sleep? Not fun.

Question for the GMs, writers, and worldbuilders out there;

The idea of a "revenant" has existed in many ways across cultures of our world.

in some cases, they're vengeful spirits, in others, harbingers of ill fortune.

What are "revenants" in your setting, and what creates them?

...hmmm.

I've never actually considered revenants, zombies, or really...any kind of undead for a cyberpunk setting.

But now that you say it. I would be lying if that isn't a VERY interesting concept to play with...
In most cyberpunk / near-future settings, you don't want to deal with a revenant. That usually means somebody with deep pockets made corpse walk around with cyberware.

Maybe the person's mind is intact, but their moral compass is gone. Or maybe it's just a body being piloted.

Either way, run.

Mf locked in so hard he forgot to die.
Given my mood and mental state, I’d say some revenants are simply ADHD types who were in hyper focus mode at death and kept going as the off switch is no longer there.

How’s THAT for a horror scenario for many of us neuro-atypical types?

If you have a kickstarter for a ttrpg or tcg, and you’re “only using ai to create placeholder images, but you’ll be hiring an artist because you respect and appreciate artists.”

First off, no you don’t. You’re just saying it because you know ppl don’t like ai, but you still want to save $$🙄
