We had the 100 Gold required to cover The Game Awards trailer fee, but sadly had to give 99 of that back to Hildegard due to some light property damage.
We'll settle on sharing the For The King II trailer here!

Your help spreading the Resistance's message is greatly appreciated, Adventurer! ⚔️

You can photograph local politicians, landmarks (esp rural or non US), your professors etc. And yes celebs! Macaulay Culkin’s pic is from 2014 and he’s dressed as Snow White performing pizza-themed Velvet Underground covers in Iowa. Delightful, but maybe time to update so we actually see his face!

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.

OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.
