Just a general reminder that some people help their communities but don't post it on the internet for a myriad of reasons so, don't assume they don't care. A lot of people are doing what they can right now.

WELL NOW, would you look at that? A massive, 24-YEAR-LONG study of MORE THAN 1.2 MILLION people in Denmark found NO LINK between aluminum in childhood vaccines and autism, asthma, OR chronic disorders. Aluminum is an ADJUVANT. It ENHANCES your immune response to a vaccine. That’s it.

I feel this is necessary context for what I'm about to say. I have *NEVER* truly enjoyed or had fun with #Soulslike games before. They're just too far removed from my usual wheelhouse. So when I say that #EldenRing has proven strangely addictive... 🤣🤣🤣

You can do this. You can do SOMETHING.

www.huffpost.com/entry/opt-ou... Here we go again 🙄 Google has granted itself access to your private messages & attachments on Gmail to train its AI models. Here's how to turn it off. 👇

Love this from Guillermo del Toro

As promised earlier, I'M LIVE ON #Twitch AGAIN!!! 🤩 www.twitch.tv/thegamingaut...

2025 had one final lesson to teach me. That there is no such thing as perfect. No perfect time, no perfect place, no perfect final product. And I've spent more than enough time waiting and trying to prepare for one. So here in about an hour, I'm FINALLY hitting that Go Live button again. 😁

When this political cancer has been excised from this administration I don’t want to hear any of that, “we need to look to the future”, bullshit. We need trials and real consequences. Looking forward without accountability is what got us here.

Readers imma need you to show up for my upcoming fantasy romance (T. Kingfisher's Paladin x Dragon Age: Origins; title, pub date, cover all forthcoming, but fall 2026!) so I can afford all the artwork I want to get for it. I keep writing new scenes and I'm just like, "I need to see this in art!" 😂💀

Purchase Blood Price!! It's wintry!! It's bloody!! It's not pricy!!

God-fucking-DAMN IT!!! I was actually excited for the Halo: CE Remake, but this makes it a complete non-starter for me. Fuck Gen AI. tech4gamers.com/halo-studio-...

Don’t let CEOs quibble over how much they’re pushing for AI. Regurgitative AI is a plagiaristic poison, to use any amount of it is to use it too much. They want the concessions, because concessions can creep. Zero tolerance is the only way to say no to it.

This. Exactly this. Now and forever.

Resharing with alt text ❤️ Please, everyone, for YOUR OWN SAFETY, get the FUCK off twitter... and STOP POSTING ART THERE FFS! It is against their TOS to even use stuff like Glaze and Nightshade as of Jan 2026!

We can do even more.

This. This right here. Immediately and forever.

Here's how to support human artists! 🎨

if you hate unmediated AI use at your workplace without worker input, if your boss is speaking over you & for you, consider unionizing. shop and industry unions are bargaining and ratifying real, material AI protections RIGHT NOW.

we can kill them all if we just work together and ✨believe💫

I set all this to false and it literally solved every issue I've had with Firefox for months now. It also no longer loads like a snail in molasses.

ICYMI, my debut is 75% off through the end of the year! My goal is to reach ten readers and I have one sale so far! Please share with anyone who loves really angry women, religious trauma, fighting with the gods in feminist epic fantasy by your favorite depressed goth queer baddie! #BookSky

Now, who could possibly bring this much rage out of Ashilde? And do you think she actually goes through with it?? 👀 Find out here: linktr.ee/thoughtsstai... #WriteSky #BookSky 📚🌈📚💙📚🪐

I'm levelling up yet again today, and, as is tradition, I'd ask for some sharing of my art. :) Photos of your pets in comments are also very welcome!

So, ah... you don't have to watch The Game Awards. Just watch the trailers when they drop after the show; save your sanity while harming on Keighley's bottom line.

The Thing (1982, John Carpenter)

So many review sites are there, Bookbub, Goodreads, Storygraph... You can review literally anywhere except amazon without having to pay anything. Just one line would do if you loved the book. You don't know how much it means to authors to have that review.

TFW you're a workaholic & have to actively remind yourself that it is the weekend, and your mental health relies on you NOT. WORKING. ON. THE. WEEKEND.

1/3 Massive efforts are being done to ensure states do not regulate GenAI. Regulations like CA’s AB-412. A transparency bill that terrifies Big Tech! On Dec. 8th, there is a major hearing on this bill. We need as many folks to show up! Come join in support of creatives! Rsvp link in thread!

firefox AI and slop disablers from tumblr for the people from local hero mckitterick. Tried it on my end and the browser is significantly faster now (copy paste-able in the alt text)

“AI is here to stay” from the visionaries who brought you “NFTs are the future.”

From someone who didn't realize then uninstalled. - Doesn't disclose usage on steam which is REQUIRED! - used for character generation - NPCs use chatbots, even if selective - people reporting generated npc voices "But it's not a core part-" Playing it is still supporting the fascist theft machine

Welp. I *JUST* realized why D&D has so rapidly become My Absolute Favorite Thing. It's game-ified storytelling. It is *LITERALLY* my two previous Absolute Favorite Things (gaming & storytelling) rolled into one!

95% of authors are not making a living through book publishing. The public needs to understand this.

Jennifer English realizing she's a lesbian and falling in love with one of her mocap directors (Aliona Baranova) over the course of making BG3 and seeing all the queer folks embracing Shadowheart and the impact the game had is genuinely one of the best stories in game production in a long time

I cosign every single word of this anthonymoser.github.io/writing/ai/h...

How Vaccines Work 🧬🧫🧪🔬💉🥽

I'm at the Target boycott, I'm at the Starbucks boycott, I'm at the combination Target boycott and Starbucks boycott

Desperately need a fresh new Game Awards show that isn't run by money hungry chucklefucks who've obviously stopped caring about video games and the people who make them forever ago.

A reminder that anytime you think a Celebrity is as big as Michael Jackson they simply are not.

What the *actual* fuck?

Every single Democratic senator that votes to cave on this should be immediately ejected from the party, and the national party should immediately start running primary candidates in their districts. There is no bipartisanship possible with traitors and fascists. You either fight, or die.

Not to be the fun police but I do hope people know that Arc Raiders does use generative AI for voice acting, and by supporting the game you're letting higher-ups know that this is an okay practice. They try to downplay this on the Steam store page by describing the AI usage as vaguely as possible.

Smile is hands down one of the best horror movies of the decade so far. It's a fantastic, haunting metaphor for the amount of damage un-healed trauma inflicts on not just the traumatized, but on everyone else around them. 9/10.

As a reward for FINALLY finishing another major project, I'm letting myself pig out on ores while watching Smile for the first time. 😁
