In Breathing Space tradition, I'll post one behind the scenes fun fact per like or reblog on this post! It may be late, but I promise I have neat stuff to share!

Oh, my favorite Bible verse (wrong answers only)? "By Grabthar's hammer, by the suns of Wharvan, you shall be avenged!"

i simply find it a little hard to believe that shortly after every website implemented ai code and fired a bunch of engineers they all started breaking constantly every single day but its not related to the ai code or the skeleton crew

I know it's april fools day but I can't emphasize enough how much I need everybody to not fuck around today

Reworked/cleaned up an art I started a while ago for a (very third-party) Lancer thing I'll maybe finish some day; am significantly happier with the station than I was, so I'll take the small victory. #lancer #art

hearing someone say they regularly talk to ai chatbots for anything does feel like they just rolled up their sleeve to reveal a festering zombie bite

I wrote about Kat.

I hate how evil the tech industry is. There once was a time where I'd update software as soon as it was available, new features excited me, gadgets like voice assistants/smart devices were great and now it's just... Everything exists to make me dumber, harvest data & fleece me with subscriptions.

Every tech company like "hey, you like our product, you're gonna love this: we chained you to a shitfaced Joe Rogan fan. Every time you use our product you get to interact with him as he babbles absolute fucking nonsense at you and distracts you from what you're doing. Isn't that awesome?"

New from @midimyers.com, a take we’re quite honestly sick of having to argue. www.mothership.blog/you-know-wha...

I bought Advent Rising the day it came out; it hard-crashed my Xbox about halfway through the intro/tutorial mission thing, every time I tried playing it, and this was before console games really downloaded patches so it was just unplayable for me. GameStop wouldn't even take the disc back.

We literally know now that anti-trans legislation was pushed by a pedophile ring to allow a pedophile ring to serve a pedophile ring’s interests, and legislators have decided the best course of action is to keep doing what the pedophile ring wants.

Can comfirm from MN, as can anyone who lives here, that not a THING has changed except little Bovino isnt peacocking around the streets anymore. And there hasn’t been a third high-profile murder of a white person yet. But the gestapo attacks haven’t stopped. At all! bsky.app/profile/jyse...

Abolish DHS. If you can imagine a world before Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, you can imagine a world without the Department of Homeland Security. My latest at @startribune.com. (gift link)

Let's talk about generative AI, contaminated information, and rhubarb. Once upon a time, Europe was at war. Food was scarce, and the government of the quote-unquote United Kingdom looked for alternatives. 1/

I keep seeing content labelled as "for the fifth edition of the world's greatest roleplaying game" and then it's clearly written by somebody with a *very* poor grasp of the Ars Magica rules.

So many times, the entire nature of what I'm working on has changed because of things I've discovered during the "tedious" work that they claim AI will save me from. It's in fact extremely common that I don't know what a thing really is until I start trying to do the hard stuff and then I find out

🧵 If any of you are responsible for this, here's some advice: This isn't how you honour creators. This is theft. And this isn't how you hone your creativity. This is theft. Learn how to impersonate people and do your roleplaying that way. Because this? IS THEFT. caibotlist.com?search=daisy... 1/4

For any Dimension 20 nerds out there, we WILL be bringing the dome to Capitol Hill if I win.

There's an old scam: you send out 100 letters, half say some stock will go up and half say it'll go down. For the half that end up being right, you do it again; after 5 times, you have a few people believing you can predict the market, and a bunch who know you can't.

Literally all of society hates this abominable scam homunculus and the weird little death cult bubble of vampiric losers who spewed it forth upon the world. Take a break from bragging about how gullible you are and give yourself a swirlie and stuff yourself in a locker and sort yourself out.

10/10 take. No notes.

This sort of nonsense is what happens when rightwingers cultivate an atmosphere that allows people to dismiss matters of human rights and scientific fact as ‘opinions’. There’s a word for what you are when you disagree with reality. It’s spelled ‘wrong’.

I'd argue that while they're correct that "sighty" isn't really a thing, both "touchy" and "feely" are absolutely words that exist, and thus the ordinary object is not intangible, it's either irritable or emotional.
