PENALTY GAME!

Looking to talk to a writer/cultural sensitivity reader from Mexico or with a Mexican background on how to construct an alternate-history cyberpunk Mexico that's interesting and complex without stepping on half a dozen rakes. Paid.

I think one of the most important skills a person can learn nowadays is recognizing when they are making up a person in their head to get mad at and how they can step back from that and ground themselves. No shade. It's an extremely easy behavior to fall into and it will erode you.

“I dont think my art is good enough to make this comic/webtoon/visual novel/game” You should make it, because even if your art isnt where you want it to be, the constant practice you gain while working on a project will rapidly improve your skills as oppose to just waiting

With the "Masters of the Universe" movie coming out this summer, Mattel recently released a talking Skeletor mask that I had the pleasure of voicing. This is a short reel showcasing some of the lines & cackles we recorded. I may or may not have had a little too much fun with all the evil cackling.

Illustration and comment from Suzuka Oda to commemorate the release: "The comic adaptation has finally reached its conclusion in Volume 3. I'm delighted for you to see the Savanaclaw crew through to the very end!" - Suzuka Oda 「コミカライズ最終3巻、ついに完結を迎えました。 サバナクローの面々を、ぜひ最後まで見届けていただけると嬉しいです！」（小田すずか）

Sorry I don't post much. It's a side effect of being extremely introverted. My social batteries came from the very first model of the iPhone and were clearly never replaced once in the last 18 years

There is a direct throughline from this and the rise in global authoritarianism. Authoritarianism is actively hostile toward the arts and intellectualism, and thus imagination. When people say that AI is a “fascist project,” this is explicitly what they’re referring to.

with zero sarcasm this is good government and we should do this immediately

Hello everyone! I have exciting news! I start a new job on May 18th, but I won't receive my first paycheck in time for rent and car payments. Any donations would be greatly appreciated! 🟩⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜ 2% of goal on Ko-fi! ko-fi.com/fitnesstocos...

benches, buses, and bathrooms. they should be everywhere

I need help 🥹 I am going to have no income for 4 weeks between leaving my old job and getting paid at my new one. I will try to do some commissions but my health has not been great and I need rest Im hosting a 30% sale on my CSP brushes. Every sale and donation helps 🔗 ko-fi.com/brushdeluxe/...

"this character can't be trans because the author wasn't explicitly trying to create a trans woman" neither were my parents, how'd that work out for them?

merry thursday

🚨 Urgent! Please read! We’ve been given a notice of eviction and have less than three months to move out. Please if you can help at all, it’s greatly appreciated! I know times are tough so I’m willing to work with your budget! Also sharing really helps! I have some examples below

[louder, as if that'll improve reception] THE BLUESKY DEVS WOULD BE VERY UPSET BY YOUR JOKES ABOUT VIBE CODING IF THEY COULD LOAD YOUR POSTS

Hi, I left my job of 15 years a few weeks ago because I could no longer tolerate the transphobia and other abuse there, please consider supporting me either monetarily, or even just by reading my free book and letting me know what you think. Thank you. 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵 linktr.ee/emoriaweidner

⚠ PSA vgen reference scam this just happened to me (didn't download the file no worries) don't download .html reference files from vgen as for commissioners, if you're using your email instead of a vgen account I'd suggest uploading .jpg/.png files for your character references instead of links! 👀

Media needs to stop with "critics say" and just quote the actual language of the bill. HB 249 creates a new category of "seminudity" which can be used to arrest women who aren't nude, but are wearing clothing — leggings, t-shirts without bras — that religious groups feel is too provocative.

I don't recall any previous transformative technologies that had to be sold to the public so hard. No one in 1999 was going, "Guys. Cell phone? It's coming, whether we like it or not. I think it's important, FOR WOMEN ESPECIALLY, to learn about cell phone. So that we're not left behind!!"

LET'S FUCKING GO

Hey, for real, shit's pretty dire, anything helps. The overdraft itself is what I need to cover at this point, I've just barely managed to cover all my actual bills. Thank you so much. I hate begging like this but I can't shuffle things around anymore than I have at this point...

If you have a metro area over 100k people, you should be allowed to live as an artist without starving. If you live in Toadfuck, Arkansas, pop. 400 and a mule, you should be allowed to live as an artist without starving.

It, again, truly doesn't matter whether vibecoding actually caused the outages or not - when you start bragging about how claude is making every engineer on staff more productive and the site goes through months of persistent downtime, that's a Statement.

happy thursday folks

BREAKING: A jury has found Live Nation and Ticketmaster to be an illegal monopoly that overcharges fans. After the federal government settled the case, 34 states kept pursuing the giant ticket and concert company. Now, the states have won.

I'm still out here ready to work on commissions! Matilda is so close to her procedure's funds being complete. DM me on Discord @ ZitoisNeato for an estimate!

I hate begging I swear but we're still not sorted out for this month. If you can share this around this would help a lot, thank you. Currently unable to buy groceries it fucking SUCKS I hate the working industry taking their sweet fucking time. Thank you. ko-fi.com/knightmer/go...

the fact that legislators are trying to say that computers are devices that require id verification and tracking to use should put fear into EVERYONE. FIGHT AGAINST THIS.

Bad day for anyone who ever used Etsy to print shipping labels. So, even if you closed your Etsy years ago, make sure they didn't just bill you several hundred dollars for fun and make sure you get your money back.

Hey. :) Trans rights.

A reminder that Steam has changed its AI-Disclaimer policy to allow game companies to not disclose Gen AI usage as long as it's not being used in a way players will directly interact with. It is deliberately ambiguous so that companies using it in the way Level-5 does do NOT have to disclose it.
