also if you notice you're complimenting someone when they're not around, tell them the compliment directly, it might be the only way they ever find out people are saying nice things about 'em

I'd like more reviewers to take stands. If you find the use of generative AI in game development repugnant and you find its use ruins a game for you, then that's the review you should write. And that low score is the score you should give.

Brianna Ghey was not murdered for being Esther Ghey's daughter, and Esther locating the problem of her daughter being murdered by radicalised cis kids in her daughter being trans is a result of her class loyalty. She simply wants to prevent kids from being trans. She gets no more grace from me.

my solution to bond dying is to have him be dead, the world deserves more than masturbatory imperialist spy fic, it got kinda interesting when he seemed a little gay but then they went back to the sort of stuff your dad keeps defending the crown over

No, using AI generated stuff as a "placeholder" on your crowdfunding campaign is not OK either. If the visuals are THAT important to getting your project funded, then you need to pay a person up front for those key visuals and deliver a consistent end product to your backers.

Hey, say something nice to your internet pals today, okay? We're all overwhelmed all the time with so much negativity, it can be nice to consciously break that.

getting midway through what you think is commentary on the news only to realize it's an anne frank quote really is a mood for 2025 huh

low polyamory

sometimes i log onto an old wow character and am reminded they're in a guild called "they cancelled my book" because the greatest gift i can offer randos playing an MMO is a hilarious reminder of the biggest loser in recent memory

long overdue tbh

housework done so today and tomorrow are mostly just that and the seance of blake manor, which absolutely fucking bangs

BREAKING: The Supreme Court denied an attempt to challenge Obergefell v. Hodges, the case affirming marriage equality nationwide. Our freedom to marry remains the law of the land.

realizing that the reason they think it's as smart as a person is because all of them are dense as shit

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer. He is a computer safety researcher. And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine. In under 1600 words. aphyr.com/posts/397-i-...

if you can post repeatedly about this shit there's a good chance you can also make a phone call, call metrics matter and so does telling schumer he sucks shit to his face, do it for that feeling alone i recommend it

Call them: Schumer (NY) 202 224-6542 Booker (NJ) 202 224-3224 King (ME) 202 224-5344 Hassan (NH) 202 224-3324 Durbin (IL) 202 224-2152 Ossoff (GA) 202 224-3521 Shaheen (NH) 202 224-2841 Gillibrand (NY) 202 224-4451 Masto (NV) 202 224-3542 Warner (VA) 202 224-2023 Fetterman (PA) No Point

we need to collectively haunt every collaborator

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Call the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and they will connect you with your senator's office. If you're represented by one of the squishier centrists, be sure to make a call. Now.

This “deal” would force 370,000 Arizonans to pay more for the same or worse healthcare coverage. I refuse to make life harder for the people I serve. I’m absolutely a NO.

probably the angriest message i have ever left a politician, don't be subtle, threaten to primary these cunts out of existence, this is folding to genocide

So, listen, call Schumer’s office no matter where you live, no matter if you’re registered to vote. Leave a voicemail that says if Senate Dems cave without an ACA premiums fix, you will never vote for or donate to another Senate Democrat as long as he is Leader

Okay, Ezra is confirming that he's hearing D senators are actually plotting to cave to Trump and end the shutdown WITHOUT any extension of the ACA, just a promise of a vote later down the line. Call your senators, friends, NOW, and tell them NO DEAL without ACA funding! Find them here: reps.fyi

The beer jacket is an ai image btw.

Heads up for folx playing Arc Raiders: Embark has openly stated (in an interview with GamesRadar+), that the game uses the same AI voice tech as The Finals, and the CEO has talked about using AI to generate 3D models from YouTube rips. If you're anti-AI you should not be playing Arc Raiders!

this is some fallout shit

it's been tough not traveling for a while during ~all of this~ but not being able to go to this hurt my soul <3 looks so so good, love that this has become a thing

Teaser for next month 🦌

these things don't contradict each other, be less shit, axios

idk he looks finished

Finished up my Necron conversion army! Been a long time in the making!

finally got around to updating my reddit with this orky pair who took a silver at gen con :) #minipainting

😈😈😈

This should be reported alongside any coverage of the GTA 6 delay www.theguardian.com/games/2025/n...

Turns out Tidal is only a few dollars more a month for a family plan than Spotify and they have a cool feature where they’re not running ads to recruit for the gestapo.

Mamdani is already cleaning up the NYPD!

one heartening thing is i dont think germans followed the SS around calling them lil bitch asses

Three days left now. Help me help a dog. You get a #Necromunda gang. Oz gets help with his vet bills. Everyone feels better.

Hey kids, if yer in Asana right now... maybe, like, save your work. Looks like a big outage rolling out atm.

it's so hard to be mad at jason because he's a) funny b) wholesome and c) has one of the nicest voices in podcasting but also, god DAMMIT

i love army painter but please don't pay ten dollars for sponges on sticks with their branding on it, the quality of AP stuff isn't in question i just dislike gamer tax pricing and their habit of using naive hobbyists as revenue fuel

tired of being told to get over shit by americans who still wear merchandise for a college they attended for three years in the 80s

An update on this. It’s really important. Still no word from UKGE but more people are commenting and I’m seeing that comments are still being hidden. What’s more, the creator is firing back with a lot of nonsense. 🙃

When even the New York Post is calling him out:

The best game has its third edition. So many successful games have been built on it. If you’ve played, written, or published PbtA games, pay it back a little. This game deserves all the eyes and all the hearts possible.
