Big companies wondering why people hate AI. Meanwhile: -GenAI stealing and hurting artists + musicians -AI filters making employment applications impossible -AI moderation fucks up online platforms -AI getting people fired -AI hallucinations -Data center resource usage is nuts

If this new job works out next week I may actually delete my IRL LinkedIn. I'm seriously tired of the fake corporate BS on there. It's barely worth keeping for the few "connections" I have.

Here's a proper list of all my other socials: VTubing: Twitch: www.twitch.tv/sonatika Gaming VODS: www.youtube.com/@SonatikaGam... Twitter: x.com/SonatikaOffcl Crystal Pixel Enigma music project accounts: CPE Bandcamp: crystalpixelenigma.bandcamp.com CPE YouTube: www.youtube.com/@CrystalPixe...

I learned that if I do my shopping while wearing headphones it's a much better experience. No one bothers to try and talk with me. Why didn't I do this before?😁

The weather may be nicer but I don't want to go outside and touch grass. I'm allergic!!

Oops... I just found two copies of Pokémon Crystal in my home. To my friend from elementary school, you were right! It seems I did steal your game all those years ago (but I didn't mean to...!)

What the hell is even the point of fast food anymore? It seems like it's not actually fast now. Also, it's gotten stupid expensive for subpar food

why do games that are like 12 dollars go on sale for 90% and then 100 dollar games only ever go on sale for like 20% like bru the expensive ones are the ones i actually need the sale for 😭

I can't be the only person out there who absolutely never updates thier OBS because I have a version that works and has never crashed, and I really don't want to mess with that

Most disappointing ghost hunts are when nothing happens. Also, the most reliving ghost hunts seem to also be when nothing happens.

I've started to look at game releases the same as I do with music ones: It doesn't exist until it's out. I no longer care about the announcements

Remember, if you're wanting to create but don't believe you're good at it yet, everyone has to start somewhere. Just start it, practice it, and put it out there. Plus, even what you think is your worst work still took 100% more effort than anything AI makes.

my brain sometimes comes up with what i feel like are million dollar ideas and then i completely forgot about them minutes later And on retrospect maybe they aren't rly good ideas but they sure felt like it for a lil bit

Seems like one of the dumbest things with me is that when I take a break from something due to higher priorities, once my schedule clears up again I have a hard time getting back to what I initially wanted to be doing

Time to go to Montreal

Apparently there's two wolves inside me... And it would be nice if at least one of them got their shit together finally

If your date isn't going well fall back to discussing deep Bionicle lore. 1. If they engage or listen then they're ok. 2. If they're not interested then they're not the one.

Why do I always get the best musical ideas on days where I'm supposed to be focusing on other very important things?

Thought at first all of today's meetings should have been emails. For once I was wrong. They needed to actually be meetings. Even crazier, they were productive meetings! 😱

Seems my friends have banned me from aux privileges on road trips now...

Sometimes it really does feel strange when I say that I'll listen to anything, and then people want to test it. I had someone put on some free jazz, then dungeon synth, and even some unhinged noise music and was shocked that I just vibed with all of it. When I said anything I actually mean it!

Please excuse me while I vent for a moment... I have a technical college diploma. A bachelors degree in engineering. I have a certificate in business. I'm about to graduate with a Master's in engineering. 7 years experience in various STEM jobs. So... WHY THE FUCK CAN I NOT FIND A JOB!?

Dream job: Working as an engineer for Lego Problem: I'm actually qualified for it, but I never get considered. Guess it'll stay just a dream... 😔

In case you’re awake but not quite ready.🐾🤍

WHOS NEXT???!?!?!!

2026 basically

Here it is, your moment of zen.

It has been wonderful watching the Olympic hockey vs the NHL. There aren't ads flashed up onto the boards and superimposed onto the ice constantly.

35 years of shareware, slipgates, and slaying. Thank you to everyone who’s stepped into our worlds.

Then I have to remember wtf i was doing in said game

Take care of your mind

some bits of wisdom from tunglr

It's annoying how the smallest thing can get me down and de-motivated so easily. 😪

I want to spend the day streaming and playing video games. Instead I'm spending it catching up on my research and writing... 😞

It's been nice working today. Except I just saw my coworker coming in. There's nothing wrong with him (he's perfectly fine), but I just like working alone...

This should be a legal requirement for being allowed to sell networked devices. Bose open-sources its SoundTouch home theater smart speakers ahead of end-of-life

Supposed to be terrible weather tomorrow. Seems like a good idea to just stay home and play more Minecraft

Just finished Metroid Prime 4. I saw some people ripping on it online, and all I have to say about that is the game was amazing and they're wrong! Aside from an odd bug in the Flare Pool section and a couple gripes with Sol Valley I think this game is wonderful!

As we enter the New Year remember fear of making bad art is holding you back. Fear of people not liking your work is holding you back. Rejection is holding you back You'll make bad art, you'll have people not like your work, and you'll be rejected. Moving past it is half the job of being a creative

Found a bookstore that stocks your novels

i wish publications wouldn't do worst of lists for music. it's kind of demeaning and unnecessary

My dog and I hope everyone has a nice Christmas today!! 🎄 🐕

If you switch to bsky it will be vitally important to not use the Discover feed and instead pin this one
