Twitch chose to replace a lot of the non-gaming category images with AI-generated images, which is a huge spit in the face for all the art communities that are now repped with AI.
There's a uservoice here to voice our displeasure!

The hills (or the spaceships buried under them) are alive with the sound of podcasts!
It's finally here, y'all! Episode 200, a 4 hour and 40 minute, three-part podcast musical extravaganza from five non-musicians!
It was probably a mistake!

Your reminder that someone can appear to be at the top (of the world, of their field, etc) and feel rather dramatically differently. I'm glad Jim worked through his issues, is still here with us and is still writing the books so many people love.

Opened this app today because I got a notification and realized it's only the third time I've opened it all year (and both other times were also notifications). I've come a long way in not doomscrolling on social media since twitter shat itself and I hopped over here, /1

You do NOT have to speak to ICE without a JUDICIAL warrant. If they attempt to enter your home or your workplace, ask for a warrant. Sometimes they will try to use other, non qualifying paperwork. They need a warrant.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.
With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.
You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

Seriously, y'all--making this show has been a uniformly wonderful experience. So much of life as a "Creative" can feel like shouting into a void. I've had four friends to share the void with me for four years, and we've made something that a bunch of people seem to like.
Blows my mind.
Blows my mind.
So--four years ago today, the first three episodes of Pod Against the Machine went live. They were followed by another 180 (so far), spanning *almost* four books of the Iron Gods adventure path. These episodes have been downloaded 222,000 freaking times.

I started this show as a lock down project--a way to stay creative and find some human connections during a very, very dark period.
I didn't know anyone in the cast at the outset. Hell, I still have never been in the same room as any of them. But they've grown into great friends.
