Listen, I live somewhere built for these temps and they are still pretty miserable. Living somewhere that isn't built for them is dangerous and terrible! Sending y'all cool breezes and extra hydration.

The Dawntrail post-patch MSQ is so good, I literally just bought Dawntrail and a lot of sub time for a friend because I am unable to handle not discussing it with them (and they are not able to afford an MMO atm). IT'S SO FUCKING GOOD.

@mayor.nyc.gov's 🔥 Knicks speech was a message to all Americans: "Standing here before what feels like the entire city, there is a Jalen Brunson quote I can't stop thinking about: 'You are allowed to think about the worst possible scenario — but you gotta go out there and do something about it.'"

When two talented street musicians from two different countries and genres meet in an improvised concert in Boston:

Who says there’s no good news around these days? 🥳🎉🍾

one of my overriding rules is "nothing we are doing is secure" and I was not going to try to make it secure. the fix for security online is to not put anything online that you can't defend in court.

remedy opened a senior writing position-- best of luck, fellow weirdos gamejobs.co/Senior-Write...

Okay, can we stop reacting to and/or giving that "makes stupid smug expressions as she pretends to be shocked that processed food is made out of ingredients" lady like... literally any of our attention? I'm really tired of seeing her on my feed. I can't block a specific video, I've tried.

social media that's bad for minors is obviously bad for adults too. crazy to me that the move seems to be to just accept that and ban minors rather than regulate the obvious design patterns that were put in there on purpose which make it harmful to its users

Are... ARE there rules? 0-0 is a win? I'm not even mad, I'm confused. Can someone ELI5 this to me, because right now it sounds like football is just going off of vibes.

*stares into the void*

It’s not hyperbole that part of what kept the queer liberation movement going in the Reagan era was the partying part of the “bury your friends in the morning, protest in the afternoon, and dance at night” schedule. Without joy there is no air left to fight

IOI utterly nailed 007. Incredible. ♥️

Buldak. Carbonara. Frozen dumplings. I am equally excited and trepidatious. 😊

Happy Pride to this Caravaggio self-portrait that made one man so gay he had to go to the hospital

the entire point of life is to be kind and weird btw

GIMP is objectively unintuitive and also can’t parse text layers of PSDs properly, it’s designed by FOSS people that have never created tools for professionals. Telling someone to use it for their job is like saying you can make a feature on iMovie. Technically true but not serious.

you hear “we’re not curing cancer” when people talk about the dumb things we do for a paycheck but man if you are a trillionaire you had better have cured cancer, you ought to have fixed problems I haven’t even thought were problems, you should contribute so much the number never even gets that high

Hey y'all! We've partnered with @drivethrurpg.com for their Pride bundle this year. There's a ton of great stuff in both bundles from all over the TTRPG world. Our contribution is the Coyote & Crow novel tie-in, Hemlock & Sage, by Tali Inlow. Check it: www.drivethrurpg.com/en/featured_...

crap

The violence in Belfast is a reminder of something I don’t want to take for granted: The fascists here hoped the response to the depredations of ICE would be similar, with people turning in or attacking their neighbors. That it was the very opposite is worth remembering in this season of despair

Ubisoft EMBARGOED news to outlets about the layoffs and studio closures, FYI. Employees were told this morning. And then many reached out to us. Companies trying to embargo layoffs and closures might be the most embarrassing thing I've ever seen in my 16 years.

I need to build a working time machine so that I can just take a few straight days to catch up on FFXIV raiding, but without stopping my Adulting. 😭

1 repost = 1 blub

I wish more people realized that "AI friends" or "AI partners" are just companies trying to turn you into a modern day Narcissus. It's just the pond surface.

Here's hoping KH fans actually get a plot they can explain without a flowchart. XD

Holy shit FF Resonance is gorgeous.

Love is real and it's two strangers in an MMO jumping up and down.

I... do not find PowerWash Simulator soothing. What does that say about me? 😂

The Amazing Digital Circus and The Backrooms are beating big brands at the box office what it means: despite the power of nostalgia and familiarity, audiences actually do want to see more original stories what executives will see: "YOUTUBE IS HOT! QUICK MAKE A MR BEAST MOVIE"

Ah man, not Anthony Head. He seemed like a genuinely good guy. In honor of Pride and his legacy as an ally, resharing this instead of the obituary www.thepinknews.com/2019/12/20/a...

"It has to be a blockbuster or it doesn't count." *silently stares at the gaming industry*

If you’re playing D&D or indeed any TTRPG and you’re not there to hear your GM pull ridiculous and/or heartbreaking and/or terrifying NPCs out of their ass, you’re not playing the right game. Not even the right genre.

Stumbled across a live performance of X JAPAN from 1989 and man... this is a whole vibe. 🤘

Why walk, when you can ride?

Cool. Planning on pulling both my kids out for an hour a week to make them watch Star Wars.

My crankiest old man take is that referring to all art/entertainment/journalism/criticism/comedy/advertising as “content” helped pave the way for broad-ish acceptance of AI slop.

Someone actually did a study a while back that showed the most effective way to get women out of TERF groups wasn’t people trying to change their minds, it was them getting literally any benign hobby, like learning other languages or taking up needlework

Nothing can ever replace human creativity and ingenuity. We have been storytellers since before the dawn of recorded history and no techbro can destroy that completely. I really do believe this.

This snippet of Brennan Lee Mulligan and Matt Mercer talking about fighting the optimizing instinct in storytelling and the importance of the wind up and negative space really encapsulates what I think we've lost with a lot of games/movies/shows/etc these days www.youtube.com/shorts/jTh8C...

IMPORTANT: For any artists/writers/etc etc, using Linktree to point people to their work, from 5 July, they'll be feeding all imagery you use on your landing page into DALL-E by OpenAI. I deleted my account this morning.

TIL: Laika studios is straight up Phil Knight being their Patron. Like the old school way...what the fuck why don't more Uber rich do that

Does anyone in New York have any leads?

AI is profoundly unpopular. A recent NBC News poll found that among 18-34 year-olds, AI's net favorability rating is -44. *Negative 44*. Those are basically serial killer numbers. It's not much better among women 18-49. (Men over 50 and upper class are the only ones who like AI, and just barely.)

As someone who grew up in and is from ACTUAL small farm country, this is completely accurate. Not enough people realize this.
