Anyway, support women/femmes 🩷

"we USE ai, but our game wont CONTAIN it" is a clarification that no one has ever cared about & now CEOs are using it as a wedge to get their foot in the door as a part of a long term plan into normalizing AI, just like how 'it's just placeholder' was used with E33. dont cede even an inch of ground

Larian's horrible hirring process is an open secret in the industry – insane amounts of unpaid work in "writing tests", excessive numbers of interviews, months and months of back and forth, etc. Everyone in games narrative circles has heard the stories at this point, probably from multiple people.

#polytrix goodness

You don’t get to say you use GenAI in your development process then sound all offended when people rightfully question you on it. It’s a highly divisive topic, you shouldn’t be surprised when people push back.

consider my feedback: i loved working at @larianstudios.com until AI. reconsider and change your direction, like, yesterday. show your employees some respect. they are world-class & do not need AI assistance to come up with amazing ideas.

hey, I am not gonna doompost about it necessarily but, a glance around will tell you it's a hard & stressful time for artists, and especially so this year consider dropping a kofi donation, or reposting a shop link, or even just, leave a comment so someone knows you like their work it does matter

Hey so don’t fucking buy shit from Larian. If they use any AI for the process, and they decide to betray their audience, they don’t deserve the support. The AI bubble burst needs to happen fast and CEO’s/underlings that endorse AI need to be held accountable and lose their money

I get so exhausted with the "but think about the team" rebuttal to justify supporting a game or a show or whatever else. I do think about them and I feel bad, but giving my money will always be used to justify keeping things the same.

anyway, I love art. and there's fantasy artists making art tenfold as strange, dark, whimsical, heartfelt, & erotic than any large studio could dream of, who refuse to give up on their craft. they're laying out trenchers of food and fable for you on your grim pilgrimage. please find it, support it.

"You won't see any AI in the final product" If ai was used to create initial concept art then I am seeing at least a trace of ai in the final product.

So many times, the entire nature of what I'm working on has changed because of things I've discovered during the "tedious" work that they claim AI will save me from. It's in fact extremely common that I don't know what a thing really is until I start trying to do the hard stuff and then I find out

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

Mom’s a lib, Calvin is a lefty.

By the by, both Oregon senators almost never have a real person pick up are mostly a message box so if you're got phone anxiety they are REALLY EASY to call. PLEASE CALL THEM. Ask them to protect Section 230 and oppose Kosa. ESPECIALLY SUZANNE who keeps giving me a canned email response about it.

alongside calling, EFF also has a site that lets you email your representatives and demand they protect section 230! act.eff.org/action/onlin...

If you're a U.S citizen who uses the current internet in any way, defend this please Because I can sure as hell bet this will impact the internet on an international scale bsky.app/profile/dies...

Watching people I love brag about how they trained their AI narrator to sound almost human:

And thats honestly the goal i have with my posting and organizing I want people loudly countering these anti-privacy narratives, because the louder we are the harder it is for their long game to pay off

Individual bills may fail but these legislators want to present the appearance of a unified push against sec 230/privacy rights Its worth keeping perspective that not every bill is The End, but everytime they start yapping i think we do need to do our own yapping to counter their narrative!

Its really important imo for citizens to push back when some senator starts mouthing off about how section 230 needs repealing, or other blatantly bad ideas But its also good to have perspective re: the actual chances of a particular gambit going through!

I need one god damn video essay that isn’t fucking AI. Just one while I work.

I really need you guys to internalize this. Government and corporations ripped Kimmel off the air for lightly badmouthing their behavior. Coordinated pushback by us is what forced them to cave in and put Kimmel back on air. Again. The fascists caved in *due to coordinated pushback.*

What did she think was gonna happen? 😏

Yes! Let's get louder! I'm gonna leave my complaint here too, so other ppl can use it as a template if they want. I used @littleevil0ne.bsky.social's base and made my own observations of why this is ridiculous Pls ignore the typos, I fixed them before sending, but forgot to screenshot after it

not my usual content, but drawing ass to protest censorship (Felvienne told me it was okay to draw this) #PinUp #OCSky #Sketch #SupportArtists #bskycensorship

You might see several artists mad about the bluesky policy update banning non-con, even artists who do not make that kind of material, and wonder why it's such a problem. If that's you, here is a quick breakdown: 🧵
