Intro post
Hi I'm Solatra (nov/nov, dune/dune), generally credited in my game design writing for Pathfinder and Starfinder as Sasha Laranoa Harving (I answer to both).
I organize PFS and SFS events here in Chicago and do what I can to support the queers around me. Follow me if you like Starfinder!

Love to see the Sedgwick County Zoo putting out a good explainer on why GenAI slop videos of animals are a problem & how to identify them! It’s succinct, easy to read, and doesn’t shame people for not knowing better. A+ useful link to share with family and friends.

The Reality of AI Animal Content – Sedgwick County Zoo
If you spend any time on social media, you’ve probably seen them – bears bouncing on trampolines, apes caught on doorbell cameras, or “rescued” wild animals acting in ways that seem too good to be…

So I don't know about you guys but I am completely radicalized and I do believe it deeply when I say the tech oligarchs will torch this planet down and flee to outer space if we don't stop them first

Sorry to all of those poor and black communities near data centers. It's more important that McDonalds make a basic ass slop commerical than you be able to breathe.
McDonald's has released an AI-generated Christmas ad
The studio behind it says they 'hardly slept' for several weeks while writing AI prompts and refining the shots — 'AI didn't make this film. We did'

I dunno man the concept of actually owning something you pay for must be like a drug if you're under 30
Why do Gen Z have a growing appetite for retro tech?

it's a mistake to compare the cost of your newsletter or podcast to a cup of coffee. that cup of coffee is the best treat i'm allowed to have every single day. no podcast is comparable to the beverage that justifies staying alive. instead market your newsletter as two thirds of a sweetgreen salad

Now that I’m buying a house I understand why people in horror movies don’t “just leave”. That ghost would have to be pretty scary to chase me out of a mortgage and equity. Here’s hoping any future “roommates” are chill.

So love wobbegongs. Everything is good about the wobbegong. Its name. Its flattened Oscar the Grouch face. Its frondy bits. Its lazy life as a hungry rug. And it’s a shark. Outstanding animal 10/10
The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.

Please read @joshuasweitz.bsky.social’s vital piece. The attacks on science from all quarters including from academics like Steven Macedo and Frances Lee, from wealthy far-right foundations, now from the state itself will have profound long term consequences. Scientists must engage, speak up, fight.
New post (~4-5 min read) on Confronting Covid's Wake, In Practice... the post describes a template for platforming open conversations within professional societies and conferences amidst ongoing attacks on science and public health.
