(He/Him) I repost a lot of games industry stuff. Just a lurker, no one special. Working on a video essay (eta 2027?), give it a couple years. Protect the trans community! Fix your hearts or die.

Ooh, an interesting-looking dungeon crawler from the maker of Mech Engineer, which is one of those Pure Sickos Only games.

Kinda reminds me of Dungeon Maker on PSP, where you were both building and trying to survive your own dungeon.

One of the best-sketched characters in an incredibly character-rich show: a fascist whose (potentially real!) redeeming qualities are continually undercut by his monumental pride, bigotry, entitlement and pettiness
The most realistic scene in DS9 is when Gul Dukat whined about how the Bajorans never erected a statue in his honor. A prophetic text.

If you're new to cooking or don't trust yourself to recognize a bad AI recipe, for the love on god, do not just use random recipes from random profiles. Find trustworthy sites and creators (Serious Eats, NYT Cooking, J. Kenji Lopez-Alt, Alton Brown) and search their archives for what you need.
NEW: AI “recipe slop” is overrunning search and social. Food creators say Google’s AI Overviews and glossy fake food pics are drowning out real, tested recipes — collapsing traffic and setting home cooks up for disaster, especially this Thanksgiving.
