While defending the luddite argument in Discord, I stumbled into this IMO succinct explanation for opposing generative AI: At every step in the process, it impoverishes us.

the only holepix we ought to be posting after that lodestone statement from yoshi-p

Also if anyone tries to be like "ew lol you're x years old and making ocs that's so cringe lol" just remember every character in your favorite book or movie or game or TV show is someone's oc. Ian Malcolm is Micheal Crichton's oc Gandalf is J.R.R. Tolkien's oc Cloud Strife is Tetsuya Nomura's oc

CAN’T FORGET

I think mare going down isn’t a bad thing. It was a privilege to have but people did silly things like advertising it in their search info and many other things that forced SE’s hand. It is gone now but maybe this will open the door for something else.

the best kind of knight ocs r the kind that are kinda like sopping wet dogs without their master

Does this to your Elezen's ears

Haven’t posted in forever but I came back just to say. Don’t drag people into your personal drama. It looks really bad on you. :)

if u roleplay a character who fights with a sword i can't recommend the robinswords yt channel enough. he spends so much time explaining how different sword techniques work on a physical and athletic level, and he does it concisely. i'm a sword pervert and i keep hearing about stuff thats new to me

Important context: you have to turn off biometric ways of unlocking your phone!! Your passcode is protected by law but not your fingerprint or facial recognition which cops can force without your consent, better yet don’t bring your phone at all (it can be tracked) & get a cheap flip phone for calls

reminder to please listen to minorities when they speak up about vile racism in the community and dont brush it aside as "petty drama" or "discourse" when literal slurs are hurled and the management lets it slide because they think hating a person means its ok to let people be vile racists.

It's so weird watching venue owners/staff just excuse shit behavior from folks either attending (OR WORKING???) the venue in a "we can't do anything about that" way. Like, it's not hard telling people they're banned and to not show up. You can just do that. It's really easy actually.

Taps the sign. This goes for your online communities too.

They own venues so avoid at all costs

With all that in mind I’ll probably end up just posting gooses and fucking off into a little corner of the internet.

im ngl this community is exhausting. There’s always something going on and I realized I’m just too old to want to invest time in a community that always has problems. I won’t call it drama bc that minimalizes the issue but… there’s always a callout being made abt someone doing and/or saying—

It's been more and more critical. We don't need this shit in our fandom, in our dealers den. Be more suspicious when you're buying art in conventions because those who sell AI arts don't always brand it as AI.

Ffxiv dev: what do you think they want? Hrothgar hats? Duo dye channels on older gear? Old pvp rewards? Ffxiv ceo, taking a long drag of their cigar: Gender the twirl emote

i think my time w venues is done, im not rly enjoying them anymore bc theres always drama with them, and if the venue itself isnt the problem, drama still finds its way there.

Time to be judgmental on the main but I love how all the paid modders swapped from Bibo+ to Neolithe the moment it came out because NL has no rules about paywalling not even caring about fat peeps and trans peeps. Y'all aren't even sleek, man.

im ready to bounce my way through the new area

Non-binary includes people who are masc-presenting, folks. So don't be so fucking shocked when someone who could pass as a cis man turns up to your "women and non-binary" events. Non-binary doesn't equal woman-lite.

new mogtome event means u can do this macro without having to spend $$$ gil or suffer in bozja for the /malevolence emote (ballroom etiquette- dark entreaty) /malevolence motion <wait.1> /bm /playdead motion /micon "Play Dead" emote jump as soon as you see the start of your /playdead animation!

Bwuh,,,shmeepo

So... I gave Xel moving/animated stars on his skin to be closer to his lore 💫

no, the bot is not hiding in "every server", u can use bots in any server u want now even if they arent in it using the apps button on the chat bar, u can also ban any account in a server using the user id regardless if the account is in the server or not

lrp yea, just focus on the good stuff around you and dont let someone live in your head rent free

remember: some people will hate you bc there's a one-sided beef going on in their head. time will pass and they will still be stuck where they were years ago, shadowboxing ghosts

i feel so cunt in this

oh btw my stance is kill every racist & transphobe, in case it needed reiterating.

A reminder that the UK just passed a transphobic law recently with the help of JK Rowling. A reminder that even though Rowling wasn't a part of making this game, she still gets money from it because it's her series. Don't support this at all, you're just giving her more money to harm trans people.
