Fuck, it happened again.

That's right! It's a new article and I'm still in need of assistance covering medical care. If I want to get my glasses, dental care, and debt paid down, I need a minimum of about $2000 in tips on this article. paypal.me/stompsite is the BEST way to do it ko-fi.com/stompsite takes a fee

Oh, you've made a video game? And you want people to play it? Well, let's talk about how to do that better. How, exactly, can you make sure people care about your game and want to tell other people about it? Check it out here: docseuss.medium.com/its-not-enou...

Since so many folks like this tweet, please take a look at my best friend (and coworker)'s article, which was inspired by a conversation we've been having. If you like it, share and send a tip his way so he might be able to clear his medical debt. paypal.me/stompsite bsky.app/profile/docs...

I no longer work on Paw Patrol. If you wanna see what me and my friends are capable of, check out this short I cowrote, storyboarded and coproduced. bsky.app/profile/mich...

If this is how Discord's AI thing is going to act then I actively suggest setting up backups and alternatives NOW A lot of us should have before, but something something planting trees If anyone who knows me needs me, I'll be on Steam

FOUND IT

When searching for the for the pieclone note (yes I titled the episode Pups stop a Pieclone), I also found this old image I posted to twitter circa like 2022 or something.

FOUND IT

That's fucking badass. "Yeah I wrote a Paw Patrol episode so baller it was deemed a threat to middle america" HIRED

Okay, you guys wanna see something cool as _fuck_? My writing partners at Mischief, @pabastien.bsky.social and @michigrim.bsky.social, made a kickass award-winning short film about a gig app for crimes that starts blackmailing our protagonist into some REALLY dark places.

Imagine you sign up for a rideshare gig app after you get laid off. Imagine it starts offering gigs that break the law in exchange for thousands of dollars for a night of work. What happens when it starts blackmailing you into killing your best friend? Check out Happy Traveler now!

Technically it was my fiancée

I was told by Nickelodeon Execs that my Paw Patrol script about a tornado that flings pies was way too scary for midwesterners and that it presented (and this is an exact quote) "A DIRECT THREAT TO MIDDLE AMERICA."

This strategy is a losing gamble because corpos that successfully shift to this, ie tim cook era apple, also cultivate strong cults of personality because of the wide range their products interact with your life Playstation is just a gaming brand. Its fanboys will never reach the fervor of wine moms

40k got so less interesting when it started trying to present its grimness without self awareness 40k all through the 90s and 00s as I experienced it tangentially through the artists that worked under my dad who had figs in their office, tie in games etc.... it was 2000AD level satire to me

Devs only do this work out of passion, and players only want to buy games made with evidence of developer passion. If your only passion is money and the stock market, get out of games and go sell oil or beer or cars or some other boring shit. GTFO. We don't want you.

The game industry has become significantly worse as the folks who make the games have lost power to folks who run big businesses and know finance but don't know anything about making games. My hope for the future of the industry, once we climb out of the current hell, is that we fix this.

Your predecessors did not invent the wheel just to watch you torment yourself repeating their toil.

So tell me if I'm wrong but Extremely thinly sliced onions * celery with big chunks of carrot for the mirepoix What spices I couldnt say, but I assume paprika salt and pepper are in there Bit of tomato paste fried before adding the stout. With Potatoes and corn beef chunks in around the same time.

I'm in the mood for some trash. Does anyone have a list of 40k novels in order of chronology

Last year @pabastien.bsky.social @officermankorn.bsky.social and I finished the contemporary cyberpunk crime drama short Happy Traveler starring Lee Shorten with the help of an excellent VFX artist and a stunt team that worked on Barry, Bullet Train and Jack Ryan.

His name is Horus because he's a...

Ah I get it His name is perturabo because he is easily perturbed His name is angron because he is angry

man bluesky is super broken today

This is the type of shit someone says when they know they're about to fucking croak (financially) like nvidia stock started going down a couple weeks ago due to ai, Jensen Huang "then its a great time to buy Nvidia stock" Its copium as a business strategy lol

Guess it's true

I was just sent a series of medium articles from a designer that says they used genAI for costume design on Sinners. nettricegaskins.medium.com/the-art-of-t...

It still infuriates me there is no good platform agnostic level design tools (as either a blender plugin or standalone that can export to fbx, usd, or gltf) that doesnt use AI currently

...sorry

This is the look of a man mid transformation into a nosferatu I mean it makes sense with the stealing the blood of the young so he might live forever

Ah I get it His name is perturabo because he is easily perturbed His name is angron because he is angry

I am running out of food money, have 340 bucks left and no job. I live w/my brother and his gf - they called me 'parasite' and said they will kick me out if I run out of cash. Share, donate - or commission me (50$ and I'll draw *anything*). paypal: [email protected] #mutualaid #transcrowdfund

witnessing the birth of a new all timer post is such a beautiful thing

Discussing Diofield Chronicles tonight with @docseuss.bsky.social and friends

And AI gives randomized, unwanted results at best. Oh my god, AI is Gatcha for techbros. They're trawling for whales.

This is gonna sound stupid but can someone read these excerpts like they're the inquisition from 40k I keep thinking this and laughing

Just fyi for Post industry collapse and survival Beware small outfits that are really 1-3 guys in a trench coat that only ever hires contractors on an hourly basis That shit is just gonna be straight exploitation. They'll use every excuse to crunch you & get more work out of you than you agreed on

You know Sony Killing physical media sure is a plan when bluray and 4k sales are up 10 and 20 percent respectively

did you know that you can exchange money for, wuckle, at advantageous rates store.steampowered.com/app/3195790/...

Trans Right are Human Rights it's not complicated.

If I recall my research back in Uni correctly, cyberpunk started as the next step after new space opera. Golden age space opera was considered incompatible with modern writing with its depiction of heroes & villians new space opera stripped the grandiosity from it or question it heavily like dune

yall should be building guilds not unions. Industry not company. Its illegal to persecute a union in places but they can eat the fine if the entire fucking industry is collected then you can pressure everyone to bargain

Trans rights are human rights, no matter what the bigots on the Supreme Court may say.

This is, ultimately, a thing I keep seeing on foss projects. Someone will allow a series of well reviewed prs of AI coded changes in on the basis that its creator double checked it. This is immediately followed by a flood of slopjockey AI prs because they have no boundaries and see it as permission
