happy new year loves I hope it’s going to be a kinder one

Been thinking on the use of GenAi for mood boards. Ethics and legal risks aside, I truly believe using GenAi as references deprives one of many pivotal things. Here’s a blurb on what I mean:

Oh thats a game i was excited for using gen ai

Calling this done because if I don't I'll keep fussing with the details forever and it's driving me crazy. 😅 Titling this one "Languish" 🦁

my dudes there's no such thing as "too late" to regulate AI, that's a fake idea. AI models aren't untouchable data gods, they're algorithms hosted in cloud storage. Saying we can't regulate AI is like saying we can't deplatform Child P*rn bc "it's already out there". Like, 1s and 0s can be deleted

Hadriel is REAL! Thank you to @zazrichor.bsky.social for the absolutely PHENOMENAL portrait!!!

Witherfang, for Dragon Age Annual 2025. It's been 3 months since I've got the a-ok to post this, so here is the painting with many wolves! #dragonage #dao #art

Since the weather is heating up most places, I’m sharing this guide again I created last year with safety tips to keep your dog safe in summer! Feel free to share (or repost elsewhere too)! 🐶 dogsummer.carrd.co

Patreon is raising the percentage it takes from new creators (again), from 8% to 10%, on August 4. People with existing Patreon pages get grandfathered into the old rate. If you're thinking about making a page, best to do it and publish it now.

Once again, I am angry at how the Dragon Age devs were set up to fail by EA's mandatory switch to multi-player live service and then back again. So angry for the devs. Dragon Age deserved better and so did the team behind the franchise.

"AI is coming, its inevitable" no its not you sniveling weirdo. how are those 3D TVs going. how are NFT markets looking these days. Seen anything cool in the metaverse lately? anyone who says we need to resign to using it, that itll be here whether we like it or not, is a feckless dipshit.

so the perfect oils brush pack freed some creative juices 🤔 I’m rly enjoying the feel of it & I’m celebrating that with merthur ghfgfvf
