Just got fired from the main income so if you are looking to commission some lewd and nude art or inflation/stuffing commissions from me I'm open.

it's astonishing how every company that insists on shoving AI slop into their products is basically teeing up the worlds easiest ads for their competitors

Reagan was a piece of shit and is a major reason we're in this mess you pompous ghoul!

aftermath.site/larian-ceo-a... I fear I somehow shifted the balance of the universe with this post lmao

The only acceptable amount of genAI usage is zero, IMO.

I am not trying to fearmonger but if one of these people is your representative please call them and tell them to vote no on "Protect Children’s Innocence Act, H.R. 3492"

shoutout to those of you who correctly guessed it was Larian when I was on here vaguely complaining about a company’s hiring process and warned me that the large scale unpaid writing test with no success criteria was only the start of how shitty the hiring process was. you folks spared me some pain.

very strong “the boss told us we have to use these” vibes coming off this (though I’m sure some folks are sincere fans)

you don’t need ai, you need an intern

sigh

Pushed a genocide. Genuinely I wish there was a democratic presidential hopeful who could speak plainly about this in the primaries

I love living in an age of signs and portents

Ko-fi Drawing Request of Charlotte Pudding (One Piece) Requested by @kindking01.bsky.social ko-fi.com/dkirbyj

its not even a boycot everyone just hates it

Holy shit.

When your “exclusive” lasts all of 7 hours, because you publicly named a guy who was never charged with a crime, and who now is being hounded by trolls, and will have this show up in internet searches for the rest of his life.

OH GOD WHO GAVE HIM THAT

Why are you polyamorous? Wrong answers only; This Megazord ain't gonna pilot itself

Yup. An actual Thursday stream! More Okami! Twitch.tv/spvcevvitch

It should probably be bigger news that this is happening right outside the venue that will host tonight's million-dollar trailer reveals for a bunch of video games

Geoff Keighley has the exact same problem as Elon Musk where he is a rich nepo-baby who uses his wealth and connections to try and convince everyone that he's cool and likeable. And he's extremely not. The Game Awards are not a celebration of the industry, it's his yearly ego trip.

This is a very divided vote. It means we've been encouraging dissent. It now goes to the full committee. Please keep calling and urging your reps to reject it

Come by the Peacock terrace and get a leaflet, or digitally spread them around online!

she’s a 10 but Excel thinks she’s October

We really need to double down on outwardly stating our work does not contain AI. We're seeing it in movie credits and books, we have to start putting it on things we make and pressuring others to label their work as human made, and normalize that as much as we can, I think. stuff like this maybe

around 40 game developers affiliated with @videogameworkers.bsky.social have gathered outside the peacock theater, where the game awards will take place in a few hours, for a “the industry is dead” demonstration

i will not watch tonight

I can post GIFs directly now!!! FINALLY!!! The guy on the left is Mustard. The girl on the right is Peanut! They're the Gnomies!

Now do all the other people who have been detained, tortured, trafficked, disappeared, and otherwise harassed by this lawless regime.

Are you an indie developer with a game that you’d like to promote during the Hard Drive Game Awards?(Dec 12, 7PM ET) We’d love to talk to you! The only requirement is a willingness to be silly. 🤪 Send us a DM if you’re interested. Fundraising for www.pcrf.net tilt.fyi/qKf4ZQh2b0

after the zionist shit i am amazed he's even allowed to do press, dude is speedrunning the end of his career

Pretty much all AAA QA folks. Literal backbones of the industry.

to all the contractors who can't share what they're working on (even though they desperately need to put it on their CV) i see u 🍷

One of my favorite editorial series I ever did was talking to notable One Piece fans about their favorite arcs. Here is manga translator @stephenpaul.bsky.social talking about Skypeia: www.crunchyroll.com/news/feature...

This is really incredible. The government's battle to deport Abrego Garcia has apparently been based on a lie from the start. Not even the "gang affiliation" lie or the "human smuggling" lie, but the more basic assertion that he was ordered to be deported in the first place.

Aaron Rupar is proof that some of the best journalists *are* stenographers. The simple act of recording and publishing the words that they themselves utter - especially when they are as risible as Noem's - is profoundly important.

I was so suspicious that this was fake but apparently it's real, and this guy just looks exactly like Anthony Hopkins (good for him!)

While Starbucks workers are on strike because they can't get a fair contract, the Bezos-owned Post is saying the CEO deserves the $96 million he got last year.

1 Million dollars for a trailer spot... Like what are we doing here people? bsky.app/profile/kota...

Remember to not give your views to this show if you really want to put pressure. That's the only way they'll notice they're being dishonest, and that's when it hurts the wallet with less ad revenue.

"AVVIES" AWARD WINNERS THREAD. Woe be upon the winners! ❤️ Watch live 👇 www.twitch.tv/UVW_CWA

The fact that there are now multiple award shows that play around the Game Awards to call out the issues in the industry that the Game Awards refuses to address really highlights what a farce the Game Awards are

to be fair the democrats are dead

a reminder for the millionth time: your peers, NOT corporations, are making the media you want !!!!!!!!!

Just really sucks that so many of us are barely getting by (if that), and the people who stole from us are rewarded with billions. It's hard to put into words how demoralising that is.

Absolutely wild to me that Disney would sue Midjourney and then sign a licensing deal with OpenAI months later. It’s never about the IP, it’s only about the money.

Time is owned by Marc Benioff, the CEO of Salesforce, which is currently trying to sell its AI tool to ICE in order to triple their recruitment. just a thing I think about sometimes while I’m at work, implementing his product for nonprofits.
