realizing I'm done with even mildly annoying content on social media. am purging everything such as subreddits like ChoosingBeggars, or any subs where the focus is just.. inherently negativity my schadenfreude is spent on the real world, I can't afford to stare at stupid shit anymore

fucking bummer how much can you fail to realize unrealistic visions of a tech fueled, dude-bro-taucracy, and complain about it before you lie in the bankrupt bed you made? bring. back. consequences.

am I the only one who despises the video format of opening with a clip from the video itself I clicked the video. I want to watch it. why are you spoiling me on an interesting moment before it happens ;-; trust me to want to watch your content idk

the squeak squad overseeing my work today (it was stupid and pointless, can you tell from their faces? lmao)

This isn't just a casual observation. Fascism scholars have long made this point. It's why calling them "weird" was a more effective strategy than talking about the prices of eggs. Fascism is an aesthetic political movement - you need to make people feel embarassed and horrified by it.

definitely don't put vaseline or fish oil on ICE agent windshields. what a terrible idea

all things considered, not a bad birthday

if you are talking today about how bad maduro was and were alive, at all, during the run-up to the iraq war you are potentially the dumbest person to ever live

biggest win with cats so far is teaching them to be chill with me touching their paws and face as little babies because now I can get their eye boogies >:)

when you're willing to spend six months to a year looking for a unicorn candidate, I'm gonna call bullshit that you "don't have time to train anyone"

is there some secret oath iOS app developers take when they work on an alarm app? the oath of "I promise to make this as bad as possible in ways you couldn't previously fathom?" anyway alarm didn't work

dude what do you MEAN Piccolo voices this guy. I'm obsessed with Banyue, I need art of him at a grill with a visor STAT

"This promise of an AI future, is really just a collective anxiety that wealthy people have about how well they're gonna be able to control us in the future." - @tressiemcphd.bsky.social with an absolute mic drop moment about AI bullshit. Incredible words. Listen to all of it!

We spoke to a dozen professional concept artists who are currently or have previously worked in game development about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs any easier. Zero said it did. Most said it made things harder. thisweekinvideogames.com/feature/conc...

165 employees at id Software just unionized. Their latest game, Doom: The Dark Ages, won for accessibility at last night's Game Awards https://kotaku.com/doom-id-software-union-microsoft-xbox-cwa-2000653008

ignore if you don't care buut yes gacha games are evil yadda yadda.... but do you ever spend a little money on yourself on a bad day and get *disproportionately* rewarded my son is complete, C6 came home so fast I couldn't believe. gamblers never give up ‼️

silly girl working with me in bed this morning :-)

rebuilding pc cause she's been chugging too hard. am terrified. yay

actually did the 'responsible' thing and tracked prices for a big(ger) purchase, sure enough? Black Friday deal is like 2% off from two months ago I know we're all saying to each other "what's the point", but seriously. what is the point lol

they have taken my chair. guess I can't work today

I don't think I've eaten fresh fruit in so long shit is so expensive and goes off immediately, it feels like I'm throwing away money but dammit I want melon 😭

getting lead poisoning from reading linkedin posts

the second your game studio starts having a hero developer whose name is echoed by players, shut it down. immediately idc how innocent it seems. you're begging to be reduced to one person's worst day. what is this obsession with figureheads in an industry run by GIANT TEAMS? it's just scummy to me

my love is now at sea until spring 🥲 wishing him safety and god I miss him already lol

did not know round 1 sucks total and complete ass now

From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."

pelosi's retiring? wow, and after such a long career as a daytrader

in undergrad I learned about double barrel testing and why it so frequently fails to provide useful data so it's really funny when I see expensive, massive projects throwing money into a furnace trying to get data on too many things at once

I think what gets me the most about speculative markets being swayed by the mere letters "AI" is that it's 0% novel not the technology, and most certainly not the motivation they want less employees, and want them doing more work for less security.

the ever-present response to ableism of "wait but isn't that illegal?" oh honey.

posted on linkedin and immediately re-deleted the app

my cats are the best and I love them so much. sun & moon you are my whole universe <3

"learn a trade" is the new "learn to code", and it's the same people saying it. what a polite way to signal that you give terrible advice

my entire department got laid off, and he almost made me homeless, but at least poorly drawn lex luthor is making $96.5 million now. that really makes it all worth it

'pick a job you love, and you'll never a work a day in your life' really took on a new meaning

the evil has been defeated (genshin xiangling powercreep finally)

my good friend just loaned me a copy of Pokemon Legends ZA ;-; I'm so grateful I could cry. I can't wait to start it, who did y'all pick as your starter??

no one will ever convince me that RTO isn't for c-suite to be able to walk around a bloated office or campus and watch their minions scramble to seem busy in front of them sure, it's also so they don't lose their second vacation home because of what they invested into useless overhead. but still

I don't want people to forget about COVID and how its first years of impact took so many lives this weekend I'm really missing my friend. she was smarter and wiser and more compelling than me. she understood what people needed to be guided toward organizing and helping their community more than me.

I miss when gamers didn't feel the need to pretend to understand development

I love my daughters

if you ever see my face in an ad for any social media, please know I don't wanna be there and they probably just loosely have my consent from a work agreement and generated my face. thx!

please do not show a hairdresser an AI generated image of a human as a reference for your hair ;-; guys cmon

my baby is home waiting for me early and I am no longer unemployed <3 thanks for all y'all that have taken time to support me or encourage me. it's meant a lot!

thank you :-) paid off

silly girl

cross every appendage you own for me, thanks!

I think it would be lovely if every c-suite executive had to attend a college career fair every year so they can be told by a recruiter to look at a website where they're hiring exclusively more recruiters

not sure if it's a class divide or what, but more than half of you whinging about the "gen z stare" clearly were never A) young and B) working a job where you were stoned cmon man. listen to trapped in the drive thru by weird al
