The way media and corpos are phrasing the distaste for genAI as "fear" and/or "confusion" is honestly so patronizing. I'm not scared or confused. I am in active defiance.

Being an artist trying to talk with other artists is just embarrassing. "I like your shapes and colours!" Mortifying playground shit

summoning emet-selch and emetwol people because in the french loc if wol goes to talk to emet at the beginning of rak'tika and choose to brush him off HE SAYS.. "Out of my view in this case, you ill-mannered! For such a praised hero, you’re quite insolent! But… I have to admit there’s charm to it…"

I’ll be honest everyone .. reading the news makes me incredibly tired and anxious.

I had a fantastic session of Delta Green today and because I had some downtime inbetween I got to sketch some evidence our characters found 😂 #ttrpg

Did you honestly not think I would take this opportunity to recreate an entire meme using this single animation!?

I held a tiny angry spaghetti today

I spent an excessive number of years moderating a gaming forum and I learned a great deal about community spaces and cultivation, whether I wanted to or not. I have critical advice for anyone who runs a game store or gaming convention. Please share this thread with people who run those things.

Listening to Shelved By Genre's read-through of The Hobbit, getting caught up as the hosts do in how evocative a one-off sentence about thunderstorms being distant giants throwing boulders is, and then disappointedly recalling how unseen wonder got bloated out to a huge CGI action scene in the movie

I sometimes get reaction videos from parents showing me how happy their kids are seeing their bug doodles next to professional adults. The bug fandom recruits early.

Cid and Nero for the thread today. Held on to Nero for so long so I could pair him with Cid 😌 #FFXIV

Henceforth, he shall walk. #ffxiv

World Race still going, oh my #ffxiv

he’s a 10, but in NIST's Common Vulnerability Scoring System.

If you come in contact with a bat, seek medical advice even if you are in one of those countries! Lyssaviruses are a thing with which we do not fuck, even where the prevalence is much lower and it's not RABV.

Also every time this comes up, folks from Australia and the UK say they're very glad they don't have rabies in their bat population: you actually do! It's European bat lyssavirus/Australian bat lyssavirus, not "classic" RABV, and it's lower prevalence, but there have been fatalities from both.

During the race we will be raising money for @gamesforlove.bsky.social ! We have the following items for donation incentives (more information when race is live!) Thanks @battlebeavercustoms.com @xivfanmerch.network for the items!

1,9% percent on M11S for DN. Banana Codex, Lucrezia and DN now soooo close.

Trying new brushes Haurchefant!! #ffxiv #ffxivart #art

I don't know why I attract rat man commissions the way I do but I sure like drawing 'em. Here's a fantasy noir detective one (property of client).

The references from @adorkastock.com are so helpful to figure out antomy!

I think I'm cooking #art #ffxiv

Purse of Riches has yet to be found, and as of today now ties the 2nd longest time it's taken to find a big fish. As it's unlikely we'll see it caught today - Blue Purse will become the 2nd longest fish to ever be found.

The Savage World First Face is inteeeense. Did not expect M11S to come in with a phase like that tether face, I had M10S up as one of the hardest fights in that tier. #ffxiv

Ich werde nie vergessen wie ich vor einiger Zeit mit einem der höchsten Beamten für Sabotageabwehr (Deutschland) am Podium saß und er sehr trocken und offen meinte, dass er gar nicht so viele Leute einstellen kann wie Russland Sabotage verübt oder es versucht.

Wish I could internalize this

My ideal is inviolate. Invincible. ☽ #halvedhekateart ☾

The extent to which Games Done Quick has helped to steer the larger speedrunning community - one of the most hardcore video game enthusiast subcultures there is - into becoming something so welcoming, inclusive and supportive astonishes me

i honestly think we peaked at realistic graphics in 2018 and we dont need them to look any better than that

horizon zero dawn, detroit become human, red dead 2, god of war, spider-man, ect all came out that year or 2017 and still look incredible i dont need any more pores or lighting engines

Ngl nothing hits like a 10pm pregnancy BigMac.

iLevel 768 and maybe I’ll hit Pf tomorrow to hit Savage. #ffxiv

girls love it when I cleave one half of the arena and then turn and cleave the other half

I hope 2026 is kind to us all

Fühle diesen Beitrag SEHR.

Frozen farm, frozen pond, frozen toes, frozen car. Beautiful icy world that we have woken up to this morning

Merz wenn eine politische Reaktion erfordert ist die über Stammtischgewäsch hinausgeht:

Love this from Guillermo del Toro

It's #sundayfishsketch here's orthacanthus! (maybe not exactly accurate but I'm just sketching)

Working on more scribble/less worry. A generic colorful darter loosely based on rainbow darters. Pen and marker #SundayFishSketch

I feel like artificially-lit deep sea #paleoart is a unique artifact of our time where photography/video of the deepest & darkest parts of the ocean is fairly commonplace and accessible #sciart

🔴Going Live now! Join us on Halicarnassus or just follow along on stream as I take you to about 8 different big fish and teach you the best way to catch them! #FFXIV

I actually play a lot of other games: I have a WoW subscription, but I tend to try and play smaller indie games, Stardew Valley, I love puzzle games. So a wild mix really. I regularly take breaks from ffxiv otherwise I’d burn out.
