So I’ve heard the English AI slop dubs of three anime shows were removed from Amazon! Fantastic! We love learning and actions to be better.

Now remove the Spanish AI dubs :3 And don’t forget the KDramas that have the AI dubs too. Thanks!

Would tag Amazon here but they have no foot here to tag sooo

I listened to a biography of FDR recently and the throughline of his first 2 terms is that he was boldly against monied interests in word and deed and the American people fucking loved him to death for it*

*kept reelecting him until he literally died in office

When I was a kid they said it was important to be like Jesus so now I exclusively hang out with sex workers, the mentally ill, criminals, and self-sworn enemies of the state and I gotta say it fucking rules

FOR FUCKS SAKES IS THERE NO BIG BUSINESS THAT DOESN'T LOVE MURDERING BROWN CHILDREN I JUST WANT TO PURCHASE BOOKS
Reminder to all my fellow Canadians not to do any of your holiday shopping at Chapters/Indigo. They try to sell themselves as a more responsible Canadian Amazon alternative but their CEO uses her wealth to support Israel's genocide of Palestine.
Indigo Kills Kids is a social campaign calling for a renewed push to boycott Indigo due to its CEO's involvement in the oppression of Palestinians and its complicity in the genocide in Gaza. #BoycottIndigo #IndigoKillsKids | boycottindigobooks.com

Please... I yearn for a world where I can be open about this in person and not have to fear people going "Ooooh, you're a *serial killer*"
someday i will make a character who is plural who will get so popular people will stop pointing to shit like Split when someone has to explain what DID is to a layman

Also if youre screaming about CR and their subtitles but are silent on Amazon *dubbing an entire show* with AI then its clear you only cared because it effects your subs and not the entire anime localization sphere. A company with more money than god should not be dubbing using AI

The thing about fansubs is regardless of anything else that may be going on, ultimately fansubs are made by someone who *really cares about what they're making*. That actually was true at one time at Crunchyroll. It is not true now.

The Trans community need to include Intersex people in our conversions a lot more than we currently do - they are are often excluded where it would be prevalent not to, when their rights and bodily autonomy are already non-existent.

A little talked about symptom of ADHD is Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria (RSD).

This is an intense feeling that everyone hates you.

RSD comes in waves, and does not require events to trigger it. You can be walking along with friends having a great time and suddenly you feel an outsider.

still looking for level design work!

I can work in Unreal, Unity, and probably whatever in-house engine you'll throw at me. I have worked on DLC for Sniper Elite 5, various community mod projects, and custom maps for TF2 and Half-Life 2.

I once knew a Federal bank examiner, and one time someone asked him why we had to KEEP inspecting banks over and over. He basically said every new batch of business school grads invents bank fraud from first principles.
AirBnB CEO calling it “vibe revenue” just 👨‍🍳 😘

The underlying cause of every bubble - debt masquerading as financial innovation - depends on not just short financial memory & speculative neophytism, but reinventing jargon of finance, like how each generation of kids has new ways to say same things.

Alright! Let's actually talk about this waterfall thing. It is an amazing showcase of many things that I adore from late 90s/early 2000s graphics.
I am replicating this in Blender through mere observation, so some things might not be fully accurate to the mind-boggling effects of the PS1.
