The Gen z stare is a direct result of the dehumanising, transactional nature of American capitalism. A whole generation has been trained through rigorous abuse to believe that it is not worth investing in humanity in the average stranger when the average stranger will choose to abuse them with no pr

also want to get a few eyes on this animal shelter in the Philippines I've been following for years who could use a little help 💖 gofund.me/89e359f71

shit like this is the core of the damage the social internet has done to us we have replaced actual expertise with "some dude with a podcast who makes you feel like his buddy while he bullshits into a microphone" and now a ton of people think that measles and chicken pox are the same

Did you know that if you use the Crescent brush to make it night time next to dogs in Okami, the dogs howl? Info and screenshot shared by A Fighting Silver Wolf on an Okami Discord.

I think when okami 2 comes out I'm gonna have to disappear for like. 3 weeks minimum. it's gonna be an Event for me

Flintheart Glomgold was originally ALWAYS South African! The whole reason he wasnt in the 87 version of Duck Tales was specifically to downplay Apartheid going on at the time and the way he made his money was literally exploiting and helming African Diamond mines.

Someone with an immune system as flimsy as mine should not work in an elementary school I get sick way too easy to be around small plague rats that don't yet know how to cover their mouths

I'm so fucking annoyed, I ordered myself a new headset Target said it'd be same day shipping since its coming from a nearby store Then said it'd arrive on the 24 𝘼𝙁𝙏𝙀𝙍 𝙄 𝙇𝙀𝘼𝙑𝙀 Then said I couldn't change my shipping details cause it hadn't processed

Two dudes making a "Ghibli-inspired" RPG talking about how you need to "Keep monsters monstrous" so players don't have to relate to them or feel remorse for killing them is comically incongruous with Miyazaki's oeuvre I could not have come with something more stupid if I tried

I got my quote back from Tom Keller (Tomsimagination) for Mabel's memorial preservation and for anyone who wishes to contribute I've started a ko-fi goal, there is absolutely no obligation as I will be paying for this regardless but it would help! ❤️ ko-fi.com/barghestblac...

"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!

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

I spoke to a dozen professional concept artists working in games about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs easier, even if it's just used in "very early ideation stages." Zero said "yes." Most said it made their job harder. I learnt a lot about concept artists. You should too!

As someone who loves doing concept work and loves looking through the concept art for games and anime, the increasing excuse of “oh we just used AI for concept art” is incredibly frustrating. Concept art is the entire basis for what comes later. It’s arguably one of the MOST important aspects.

Gonna make a Mabel thread, for anyone who’s met her irl and wants to share photos here please do. 💜 We found Mabel August 31, 2016 on a busy street in Santa Ana, Ca. I had Mika drop me off on the road and I was only wearing flats and I ran across the street trying to chase this tiny dog.

When I went to see Httyd in theaters for the first time. I just expected a kinda average animated movie. Then the first flight scene happened and I literally couldn't breathe cause it truly felt like being on Toothless with Hiccup, and I fucking sobbed when the movie ended

Ms. Rachel is an absolute hero. She’s gotten so much abuse for her extremely compassionate, humane - and in my opinion, common sense - views on children being hurt and killed in Gaza. But she’s not letting that silence her. Bless you Ms. R.  @msrachelforlittles.bsky.social

I'm going to be unable to stream from the 23-6, I'll be visiting family so I won't be able to stream. So give me some short games or things you'd like tutorials on drawing. I'm going to be uploading prerecorded streams to fill in the weeks I'm away.

They... They fucking turned 𝘼𝙉𝙄𝙈𝘼𝙇 𝙁𝘼𝙍𝙈 into a fucking minions movie... This book should've been adapted into a Watership Down style animation... And they decided to turn it into a lighthearted kids comedy??????? Fucking hell we are so fucking cooked when it comes to media literacy what the fuck

So you say you're glad that he's frozen in there and we're out here. And that he's the sheriff. And that you're frozen out here. And you're in there. But oh, you just remembered - you're out here. But what I really wanna know is... where's the caveman?

some ideas

Okami is FULL of beautiful women, it's a yuri dream! (Please no Okami spoilers, Boo has only made it to Blight) #BooTheART #Okami

I really wish I could combine stream lore universes with some of my streamer friends, like... Our lore and settings occur in the same universe kinda thing. I'd love world building with others.

This creater puts "reading levels" into perspective in a really helpful way, so sharing it here.
