It's been over ten years since I created Jehanne and began my adventures properly in FFXIV, so I wanted to get a commission of her to celebrate. Thanks again so much to @coconutcatcat.bsky.social for giving me something to smile at for the New Year. #FFXIV #ffxivart

I understand the sentiment behind it but too many of y’all seemed way too eager to make clanker jokes in a way that seemed less about being anti AI and more about wanting to make jokes where the punchline is “this sounds like real slurs but about a fake thing” or “haha, it’s like old timey racism”
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

Yesterday I met up with some friends from high school that I hadn’t seen in a while and we got to play the classic reunion game “Gay, Married Or Racist” in which you go through people you all knew back in the day and try to figure out if after ten years they’re gay, married or racist

Quick reminder, the Code MENT guy is a far-right crazy person. He unfortunately is also thr Soup Store guy.
He recently has tried to rebrand, but his final few videos before said rebranding had messages complaining about economic equality, DEI, et. Also slurs.

The confusion and conflation of ‘generative ai that is built on stolen artwork’ and ‘machine learning, character behaviour modelling and proc gen’ is intentional on the part of the grifters peddling the former. They benefit from murkiness of classification, because the latter predates their bollocks

Quantic Foundry does legit trustworthy analysis of gamer behaviour, and these survey results are shockingly negative toward genAI, to the point where I’m more hopeful that data driven mobile and AAA backpedals on their uses.
everyone dislikes genai in games, but kids and story-focused players the most.
sounds like we'll be ok. just have to stay the course here and the "inevitable" new technology nobody likes will die. again.

Zero tolerance is the ONLY and FITTING response to genAI being used in production of media.
Sure, you might think it's too harsh. Sure, they might've only used it for early stuff in development, etc
Listen, it's not even a SLIPPERY slope, there is NO friction at all unless we speak out against it.

my opinion of Hoyoverse is pretty low at this point but them putting out a developer interview where they flippantly talk about how all the employees are forced to crunch in overtime because their regular hours are gives them no opportunity to do their jobs is fuckin depressing

In the past 48 hours or so I've learned according to many Hoyo fans, it's understandable and necessary to send death threats to striking actors, take screenshots of their discord conversations and send them to dramatubers, etc
But if you show a Hoyo employee's work email, that's crossing a line.

A lot of folks try to "well, he does a lot of good for the people in his videos" away any critiques of Mr. Beast, but I just feel like the long term repercussions of teaching kids sadism for entertainment outweigh the individual rags to riches to stories.
In Mr Beast’s new video, a woman is alone for two weeks on a platform in the sky. and each day, a balloon is released at an inopportune moment for her. And if she fails to shoot the balloon with an arrow, they take a small portion of the platform that is her home

At this point even if every single English voice actor came out to say Hoyo treats them like shit, the fandom would insist they were all acting unprofessionally and that’s somehow worse.
If all you care about is decorum and not the wellbeing of actors?
You’re licking an ugly pair of boots.

I'm chatting about this in another server with people and the consensus I'm seeing is claiming Corey is acting "unprofessional" and "Theatric" in the second half of his email.
But the main defense seems to be: "Their CN/JP/KR studios never have this issue. It has to be the EN side's fault."
