*gets followed due to a post critical of the AI industry* *worries the new follower is a normie who will be put off* *checks new follow's profile page; it's mostly just AI and hustle culture crap, and possibly a bot* Eh, fuck it! Don't care anymore.

When an ethically bankrupt person shuffles off this mortal coil, why eulogize? The less said about the evil ones, the better.

Reason no. 857.3b why I don't like "AI," at work or at home: the biggest champions of LLM tech are salesmen, not engineers, trying to sell a version of their product that does not and may never exist. I find that greatly annoying and socially destructive. youtu.be/yRZC6KfcO88

Ketchup and spicy brown mustard. Sometimes homemade grilled onions and jalapeños, too, if I'm feeling really fancy.

What the heck am I doing? This morning I felt sick and hot until I got into the air conditioning at work, and now I'm having a spiked hot chocolate to end my day? Why do I not make sense?

Tired of stepping outside to just immediately feel like I have to shower for a 3rd time in a day.

Darn it. Am I hot because I'm sick, or because it's summer? Or has the heat made me sick? Can't afford to take a day off. Need to replace an ebike battery real soon.

now that ive revamped all of my oc refs, ive decided to do a qna! any questions you have abt my characters, ask away!

No Star Wars, no Star Trek, name your favorite sci-fi franchise.

Getting back in the habit of just FINISHING things. This one's for @inflate123.bsky.social with his OC Julie Jannsen enjoying some office furniture. Who's to say where that compressed air nozzle exits in these chairs?

You deserve vanilla ice cream and root beer tonight. Actually, given how hot it's been in Western Europe and the US East Coast, that may be the only desert you can stomach right now. Stay cool! *sips own root beer float*

Did you know Atlanta does a Pride parade in October? I heard the organizers didn't apply for a permit in July one year and took the next available slot. Worked out so well, marching in the fall, that it turned into a local tradition. Be like ATL: celebrate Pride whenever the weather's agreeable!

Done! Sorry for the delay, wanted to make sure all moots woke submitted got in

Another Pride Month almost done and I dropped the ball on getting any sort of art done of Irene and Sally. Oh well! They can just be gay next month, too!

this pumpkin-head really thought the balloon pack was a literal consumable.

Here's your multi-million dollar idea, venture capitalists who failed to get in on the "AI" hypetrain early: Online classes and tutoring services, specifically designed to sharpen skills dulled or lost as a result of AI use. Advertise heavily enough, and you may get people questioning AI overall.

Oh, great. Stayed up late trying to coax a broken washing machine through one last load and now I've got a monster of a headache this morning.

I reiterate can you fucking believe there are people who did their best to preach that this finale was BAD?????????

Thank bean dip it's Friday. Just 8 hours separating me from some relaxing fun time.

Any of you guys get Juneteenth off? I don't, but my office does have a party. Gonna load up on lots of jollof rice today!

Is this the part where I come out of a funk I didn't know I was in and proceed to crank out a 25 page monstrosity of inflation fetishism? Probably not, but I do feel a little different today. Nowhere near as exhausted as last week, despite staying up too late last night.

Made new outfits for myself to use in my group's D&D and also outside of it, maybe. <3

I always get a kick out of signing into FurAffinity and getting the “check this box to verify you’re human” dialog. Honestly, they should ask Cloudfare for an option to replace “human” with “sentient.”

have capacity for 3~4 more art comms in June fyi.. evil.pet has information

Pizza sandwich? Pizza sandwich.

We know you have a lot on your plate, so this is coming from a place of support... Use 'Scot-free' instead of 'Scotch-free.' Use ‘shoo-in’ instead of ‘shoe-in.’ Use ‘piqued my interest’ instead of ‘peaked my interest.’ Use ‘case in point’ instead of ‘case and point.’

Anyways.

Alright. Guess we're going to work on about 3 to 4 hours worth of shuteye. Here's hoping I don't drowsily stab myself with a craft knife or soldering iron today.

4:29 AM. Can't sleep.

Hi I put over 50 hours into #Marathon since launch and apparently qualify for Cryo Archives without trying. I also play solo. If you're new and want tips on how to play, OH DEAR DO I HAVE THEM. ...so this is a thread of "Tips For Solo Marathon Players." #gametips #letsplay #twitch

Honestly this AI trend in game dev is a bit encouraging just because someday when I finally make my own games I can just say "no AI!" and so many people will play them

Note to self: write story featuring a fictional language where marshmallow gets translated into "sugar cheese."

*tired and irritable after making a less-than-stellar dinner, is still waking up at 4 in the morning* Let's call my odds of calling out tomorrow one out of four.

You know, as a long time Destiny 2 fan, I should have realized that Marathon's a Bungie game: the servers will always be fragile in the hours after a major update.

Today, on "Throwaway Makes a Mess of Their Kitchen So They Can Clean It," Throwaway bakes an orange chocolate chip cake, and uses an ingredient they've never baked with before.

Last month's Animation was one between Baal and my friend's char Rosa, having a 'friendly' contest between themselves as they each vie for inflationary dominance over the other! This was SO much fun to do, a simple back and forth really blossomed and doing the bg was a challenge!

Happy Pride Month, everybody! Get overinflated with it! 😆

"Computer, build for me a lore-accurate Replicator from the 20th century science fiction television series Stargate SG-1." I can think of so many reasons why this would never work, but it's worth a shot! 😆

Happy Friday, you strange people!

Prodigious amounts of cheese make almost every meal better.

It's my birthday, I wish this site did the balloons too l3 I have some things planned for it and I'll see if I can pull them off...thank you all very much for enjoying my stuff!

I bought a pack of balloons while I was at the grocery store. I don't know why.

Difficulty rapidly switching back and forth between two notes on your musical instrument of choice? Trill issue.

Telling your OC lore out loud to friends is so funny because it looks cool and poignant in your head and then actively telling it makes you feel like a 3 year old holding an etch a sketch

Always have Grandpa Simpson story ready for when a kid asks you. #webcomics

I know for a fact that if we had cyborg bodies like in GitS, a few of you would absolutely rebuild your shell with animal features and abilities, even if it voided the warranty. Where's my cyberpunk stories about people becoming anthropomorphic cats, dogs, wolves, etc?

Yelling into the void feels good, but yelling into these specific boxes has the potential to actually make a difference! Dont let this pass you by, give em hell yall!👏🏾👏🏾 ❗The deadline is tomorrow (may 22nd)❗

Alright, exhaustion, summer heat, and seasonal allergies! You win! I'm calling out sick. You happy?
