My big project: The Death Generator.
It's a tool for making fake video game screenshots, just fill in new text and it'll give you a (generally) pixel-accurate image back, the correct fonts and everything.

In the Kids Onle Safety hearing going on right now they predictably called privacy and free speech concerns "a farce"

I think we should call and refute this shameful behavior extremely loudly

If they think our concerns over free speech is a "farce", that'd make the people pushing these bills un-American, don't you think? #stopageverification #stoponlineidchecks

This is DEFCON 1 priority, y'all. Call your senators, reps, call your friends and tell them to call their senators and reps about this. Call your grandma and tell her to call her senators and reps about this.

What we have here will be *gone* if these bills pass.
Congress is attempting to fast track KOSA and more than a dozen bills that would restrict internet access, censor speech and increase surveillance under the guise of protecting children.

Committee hearings begin tomorrow.
Lawmakers to consider 19 bills for childproofing the internet
KOSA is back, along with more than a dozen other bills that will erode free speech and privacy in the name of protecting kids.

CW: Abuse

I want to talk about some specific forms abuse can take for trans people. I'm focusing on partners, but a lot could also be applied to families/friendships/etc.

I'm also focusing mainly on relationships where the abusive partner is cis, but this isn't cis-exclusive behavior. (1/?)

This one is excellent, and I’ve made it about 2000 times. I do add a secret ingredient, and that is “Velveeta.”

Also amazing with a topping of crushed Cheez-Its.

SO... I'm pretty much done with Fortnite. There were statements made by Tim Sweeney saying that AI usage doesn't need to be disclosed, and then AI usage was found all over this current season- from art to sprays to in-game songs. Between that, and the upcoming shitty wizard collab... Yeah, I'm done.

Lol, Zillow tried to rate the climate risks facing individual properties. The real estate industry *hated* it, precisely because it worked -- it made selling risky properties more difficult. So they rebelled & Zillow caved.

Don't look up!
