This has always been a Bluesky-first campaign. But as of today, we will no longer be using Twitter. At all. And I'm calling on other candidates to follow suit.

Things are Terrible, but this isn't. Be weird.

To me, the best games are the ones that are unforgettably singular; you can see the people who made it in every aspect of the game. You can tell that every bit of design was done with specific intent. In that sense, Strange Scaffold is one of the best developers out there. There's nothing like them

please let “bugs bunnying” become the slang for manipulating an LLM into ignoring its guardrails, i have never seen a more succinct and evocative term for it

i really think there is legit political space for running on "we are going to dismantle ICE"

Clair Obscur’s now confirmed Gen-AI usage during the development process has caused their IGA debut and GOTY wins to be retracted.

"Every cyclist is a rebel" Stencil seen in Athens, Greece

THIS. *They stole your fellow writers' FUCKING HEARTS' BLOOD to power their fancy-ass text-based writer-imitation machine.* You wanna get all NUANCED about that? Your easygoing take on that issue will sooner or later (most likely sooner) be used to steal *your* stuff. Let's see how *you* like it. 🫤

JK Rowling is destroying children's lives. Stop buying her shit, watching her shows, playing her games. You're funding her hate campaign. Move on.

that's feminism and trans people occupy the tip of the spear. if we are possible then everything becomes possible. if we are free then you are free. the alternative is control, patriarchy, fascism. a world that is dictated to us on someone else's terms. if we are not free then neither are you. help

Notice how Trump and Republicans were having the worst couple weeks in the administration's history and they decided to pivot to hardcore attacking trans people?

I don't think I can manage sporty, do you happen to have mid-range sedan spice

With all the road washouts, the state transportation budget is going to be a mess. Maybe it's time we started looking at cutting projects that increase highway capacity and induce more sprawl. Here's $86 million we don't need to spend.

WA: Washington’s flooding has been declared a state of emergency. If your property has been impacted by the atmospheric rivers, there are financial relief options available to you.  www.kuow.org/stories/wash...

This is literally a fucking ploy for the company to say "pay us money and we'll cherry pick the results so you can claim people want [product]" Secondly, if you're not going to ask REAL people, what's the point of pretending? May as well proudly announce you're open to discredit yourself fully.

"We use AI to generate references for our concept artists" Fuck off with that. Concept art is about the limitless potential of the human imagination. If they don't have a reference they can MAKE IT UP

Imagine if cities demanded the same of car manufacturers.

This week is the last week before Congress goes on December recess. When calling your House Rep also mention these bills: KOSA SCREEN Act COPPA 2.0 RESET Act Sammy Act App Store Accountability Act GAMING Act Safe Messaging for Kids Act Parents over Platforms Act (1/5)

MORE OF THIS EVERYWHERE PLEASE

Forward.

the good that you do persists in this world

Zootopia 2 is the highest grossing Hollywood movie of the year & Kpop Demon Hunters was Netflix's most popular movie of all time, but fuck animators, am I right? I hate reading about how huge & beloved this stuff is while knowing how hard creators have it & how it still isn't broadly taken seriously

I'm on scene here now. Looks like the crowd is letting 36 coaches through.

thinking about this anthony bourdain quote

Regular reminder that the most dangerous thing most people do every day is get in a car, and it's something that is rarely talked about by the average person, let alone our politicians. This is an escalating problem, we can all see it, and there is very little political will to address it.

If you need a measles jab in the US and can't afford one, hit up Bree's replies. There are people in there volunteering to cover someone else's shot in the name of Fuck Measles. I got my titers checked in May, and I'm good. If you're not sure, go get yer jabs!

i enjoyed this film thoroughly and have cried thrice watching it, it is beyond excellent and no one will never change my mind about it

Every facet of generative AI has made my professional life worse, without question, but THIS specific aspect has been driving me NUTS. Clients, who have made me toil for weeks over indescribably small details, are now approving & producing in-house commercial artwork that looks like a fever dream.

"I'm not in denial, I'm in open rebellion" damn that quote goes hard

Everyone in Chicago needs to read this AND TAKE ACTION. Everyone else should read this and ask what's happening where you are with your public library systems.

This is incredible.

i do not regret to inform you that we are going to win

For any Dimension 20 nerds out there, we WILL be bringing the dome to Capitol Hill if I win.

I'm slowly becoming a morning person just to make breakfast and lunch sandos, holy shit

Yesterday, I held a music festival in my district to register voters and speak directly to young people who don’t usually attend political events. 4,500 tickets. Music + advocacy go hand in hand. Madsoul Festival 2025 was a success.

the electoral left needs to lean in heavy on anti ai and anti data center policy

I feel that if AI music continues to be produced, (it shouldn't) the only clever caveat that I can think of is some stupid litigious circumstance: Hire an actual band to cover it AS CLOSE to the original as possible, release the track & copyright strike them all to hell. Steal the money back.

I was about to joke that it would take mere months before a series like this is announced from a streaming service, thinking it was The Onion making up the concept ...only to find out it's real 😅 Watch party, anyone? #AteTheOnion

ICE raided a James Beard award winning restaurant & because the chef/owner was prepared, left emptyhanded:

No-strings-attached, zero-means-testing, no-questions-asked cash payouts have been proven, over and over again, to be the most effective form of charity/aid going. It gets people in housing, and it saves the state money. We know this. It's fact, not theory.

Annual reminder that one nice thing you can do as a coworker is, if you have to write peer reviews, just go ahead and ask your peers what accomplishments they’re proud of this year, and what they want to work on next year. It’ll make your job writing them easier, and help their best work be seen

An easy way to explain luddites: Textile manufacturers brought in machines that could do in an hour what would have taken 12 hours by hand. And then, tried to keep paying the now 12x more productive workers the same wages as before. That's it, that was the problem luddites had. Not complex.

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

for any number of petty reasons, i committed to the bit and spent 2.5 months training so i could run in the Seattle Half Marathon yesterday i still hate running. but i think i hate it just a little less than i used to.

A dumpsite, an idefunct, a recall notice

I can personally note my way around this is spending far too much time in Half Price Books, and picking up interesting looking CDs at the library for FREE. Plus, read a few pages from the middle chapter of a book. See if it feels right! It's how I found myself addicted to Emily Henry novels 😅

The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste
