Here’s my recreation of the Advanced Course in Daytona USA as a fully playable VRChat racing world! No source code used, just constructed and programmed in Unity & C# (UdonSharp) by eyeballing the arcade version and doing my best while trying to keep it fun!

Whole bunch of hobby stuff, but nothing quite super complete. Got a Bamboo A1 printer up with a 0.2mm nozzle and honestly it's nearly as good as resin and as a casual little hobbyist it's absolutely perfect for any little minis I want. Very very happy with the results
Two change demon heroes from One Page Rules, a fancy bird man with a cane hiding a dagger behind his back. The left was done with a 0.4mm nozzle and the right with 0.2mm. The difference in quality of the print is quite noticable! Had to paint up the left one in order to actually pick out any details of it.

Absolutely do not trust your personal info to gd ChatGPT. There are plenty of way better tax websites anyways. Fuck AI and always always fuck TurboTax

TurboTax is about to be integrated into ChatGPT, where customers will be guided through tasks tied to their tax filings or financial profile by the AI chatbot.

TurboTax owner Intuit is also paying OpenAI more than $100 million a year to power AI agents.

🙏CHAPTER SERF🙏

I finished it! A Warhammer 40K adventure & TTRPG where you *don't* play Space Marines. Instead you play those little hooded freaks loitering in the background while Space Marines hog the limelight.

Good day of finishing these guys up. Shoulderpad rank/grouping is totally the way to go with star wars stuff. Unsure about the rust but will match the droideka. #nerdlings #miniatures #starwars #legions

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX
Don't Buy Starbucks! At any location, today and beyond, while workers are on ULP strike!

Listening to people say D&D has no negative bearing on the indie creative space at large has me tweaking.

This is a creative monopoly unlike anything seen before or ever. I have a list of marketing outreach channels where 95 out of a 100 contacts exclusively cover D&D/OSR (D&D adjacent)...

reading slaughterhouse 5 for the first time and i was absolutely knocked senseless by this passage, which is so true and relevant that it feels like it was pulled from a history book
“America is the wealthiest nation on Earth, but its people are mainly poor, and poor Americans are urged to hate themselves. To quote the American humorist Kin Hubbard, 'It ain’t no disgrace to be poor, but it might as well be.' It is in fact a crime for an American to be poor, even though America is a nation of poor. Every other nation has folk traditions of men who were poor but extremely wise and virtuous, and therefore more estimable than anyone with power and gold. No such tales are told by the American poor. They mock themselves and glorify their betters. The meanest eating or drinking establishment, owned by a man who is himself poor, is very likely to have a sign on its wall asking this cruel question: 'if you’re so smart, why ain’t you rich?' There will also be an American flag no larger than a child’s hand – glued to a lollipop stick and flying from the cash register. Americans, like human beings everywhere, believe many things that are obviously untrue. Their most destructive untruth is that it is very easy for any American to make money. They will not acknowledge how in fact hard money is to come by, and, therefore, those who have no money blame and blame and blame themselves. This inward blame has been a treasure for the rich and powerful, who have had to do less for their poor, publicly and privately, than any other ruling class since, say Napoleonic times. Many novelties have come from America. The most startling of these, a thing without precedent, is a mass of undignified poor. They do not love one another because they do not love themselves.”

No show or movie has ever delivered a worse creature from another dimension than ABC bringing Stephen King's The Langoliers to the screen.

A couple of years ago I made a spooky graveyard using some Fenris games and Bad Squiddo scatter terrain.

Of course you need to really step back for the full horror.
