steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back

Y’all, there is no ethical use of genAI, in any capacity. No, not even if voice actors agree to have their voices used. No, not even if it’s just used for a shopping list, or brainstorming, placeholders, etc. Your actions do not exist in a bubble. Using it at all is supporting it.

Chat am I cooked

Getting an ultrasound today to see how my stents look 🫡 if all goes well I won’t have to be on the blood thinners anymore and jesus fuck I’m hoping it goes well LMAO

hey besties, I see that there's news coming out re: epstein and I just want to remind people to NOT censor posts!! I'm a survivor of sexual assault and incest, and if you censor words (eg: inc*st) it's going to show up for people that have those tags blocked!

Just a little life/content update 🩵 Thanks for sticking by me and I hope we can do some cool shit soon (also i post all of my updates in my discord so join it please)

I am generally someone who is rather patient and holds myself back so you know it’s bad when I am considering throwing hands 😀

Happy birthday to me

This is in an hour :)

Hiii y’all, my birthday is this weekend so tomorrow at 4:30est I am going to be streaming for a bit hehe. I’m going to play Nancy Drew Danger on Deception Island, See you then 💕 twitch.tv/maddihunt

*opens social media* *sees content that fills me with dread* *closes social media* *opens social media* *sees content that makes me annoyed* *closes social media* *opens social media* *sees people living their best lives which fills me with a mixture of joy and grief* *closes social media*

I know it’s been like a decade now but I still feel grief whenever I see a Panera. They massacred my girl. Food sucks costs and fortune and the ambiance is gone. Private equity is a disease

gender kinda feels like if a doctor read your palms at birth and said “ah yes this will be your predetermined personality” and then everyone in the world was like yes. a broken heart line. You LOVE apples. It is known. And then everyone gives you apples and treats you bad if you don’t want apples

Airbnb needs to be either HEAVILY restricted or banned altogether. My preference is banned altogether.

Disgusted at the fact that I am relieved that I “only” owe $3k of this $85k bill for my (outpatient btw) surgery. This country is a prison

Hypothetically if i was to stream for my birthday next month what do we think i should play/do. hypothetically.

Maybe if the Gävle goat burns down this year it will fix everything

Just got my updated covid vaccine I hope it gives me double autism

I do understand the instinct to make fun of the memes the kids are using nowadays but maybe just take a second to remember the Me Gusta meme before proclaiming that current trends are more cringe than the ones of our youth

This felt like getting shot

fun fact. you know how people say em dashes are a common sign of AI writing? The oxford comma as well? It’s partially because fanfic writers LOVE those bitches, and genAI programs scrape the FUCK out of websites like AO3. Support fanfic writers, not the pieces of shit stealing from them.

successfully stopped biting my nails and the hard part now isnt even random daily urges its that i am far too lazy to trim/file them constantly and i want to just bite them the fuck off

Happy indigenous peoples day everyone give me $10

BUT HEY! THAT'S JUST A Segway to remind you that the FNAF creator/this movie's screenwriter, Scott Cawthon, donates the money he makes from FNAF stuff to far right politicians, many of whom are currently trying to make things worse for everyone, specifically trans people. Don't support this film.

eating apple slices doesn’t even come close to the primal animalistic experience of eating it whole. Sometimes I eat the core too. just to feel something.

I have another one. Possibly more controversial. Football (American) should be banned. Studies have been done on football players’ brains postmortem (the only current way to diagnose CTE) and found that NINETY PERCENT had permanent brain damage from constant impacts, 99% for NFL Players. Ban it.

This is also why I highly encourage broadening your interests. Find multiple things you love, don’t focus all your time and energy into one singular thing that can be ripped away all at once. Don’t idolize celebrities. As someone neurodivergent I get how hard that is, but it’s vital.

I really do hate being the debbie downer or the “too woke” friend but you HAVE to stand your ground when it comes to your morals. Even when it hits something you love. NOTHING will change if you just let things slide when you have the ability not to. It SUCKS. It sucks SO BAD. But you have to.

Free Greta Thunberg and the rest of the illegally detained flotilla activists.

If anyone needs good news- the Global Sumud Flotilla distracted Israel enough that Palestinians were able to FISH without being attacked and brought in a whole huge net of fish. They may not have reached shore with aid but their efforts still managed to bring them food

its times like these that make me happy i got the entirety of the sims 4 for free (definitely totally legally mhm) instead of spending over a grand

EA’s new owners have already stated theyre going to be heavily leaning on generative AI to cut costs so we better be keeping the same energy now with the Sims that we did with InZOI

Welp, EA is now owned by a group including the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund and Trump's son in law Jared Kushner (CEO of Affinity Partners). Good luck Bioware - I wish your brand of queer centric RPGs good luck... www.eurogamer.net/ea-privately...

Spread the word about NSPM-7 🗣️

Now that cold weather is approaching are the people who claimed using AC is irresponsible going to also yell at people using their heating (something far worse for the environment than AC) or is only one heat extreme worthy of not making yourself sick or dying from

I’ve started noting down words I have to look up while reading. Here are some from the last few months or so (the line separations are by book)

I swear to god if Nintendo doesn’t sue after that DHS pokemon video. Won’t stand against fascists but will sue a single disabled man to the point of basically making him an indentured servant (he owes them 30% of his income for the rest of his life.)

Is this the rapture everyone’s been talkin about

Saw the Witcher in concert on Sunday :) was very very fun everyone thank Luke for bringing me I demand it

I miss the Captchas of yore what the fuck is this shit

I miss playing pretend. Playing pretend was elite as a kid. Yesss we are sword fighting with these sticks. Yesss now fifteen minutes later we are dogs. No D&D is not the same there are too many rules. No neither is larping.

October slide is hittin early this year chat

Do men actually expect their random pickup lines in public places to work. Like, did the man who just asked me to smoke a cigarette with him while I was walking back to car with takeout actually hope I would accept. Did he actually think there was a chance. Or is it just for the love of the game

For the love of god we need to not normalize day 1 DLC 😭 it is pure, undeniable greed, especially from a huge company. If you give in and just get it, it sends the message that they can get away with it. Artbooks, soundtracks, even cosmetics, that makes sense as DLCs. Day one actual content? No.

“They will use this as an excuse to escalate violence!” THEY DONT NEED AN EXCUSE. THEY ESCALATE THEIR VIOLENCE EVERY DAMN DAY. They are going to do it anyways!!!!!! Some of y’all say you want a revolution yet clutch your pearls at the signs of it. People are not morally bankrupt for celebrating.

lol lmao anyways

Millions of Americans took to the streets in June to drown out Trump’s birthday parade. As Trump’s regime escalates his authoritarian power grab, we’re gathering again on October 18 for a nationwide day of peaceful protests to say NO KINGS. We hope you will join us: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

hate to once again be the party pooper, but waterpark sim devs are yet another example of devs that think GenAI is fine aslong as it's not in the final game or press materials www.ign.com/articles/wat...

This is why it's important for you to remove source identifiers from links!!

Gender is a game and I. I think I’m missing some pieces guys. What did yours come with. Was there supposed to be a manual. I got the monopoly thimble in here is that supposed to be there
