There's a couple reasons so many IWW songs are set to the tunes of hymns and one is that the Salvation Army Band would show up and try to stop workers organizing by playing hymns to drown out speeches, so the Wobblies came up with words so they could sing along. SA has been trash all along.

holy fuck this is ridiculous, how can we claim games are art if art is this scary to our two primary distribution channels?

I saw that mask trend #bravelydefault

“The math is brutal and the juxtaposition stark: millions for OpenAI while pink slips go out to longtime lecturers. The CSU isn’t investing in education—it’s outsourcing it, paying premium prices for a chatbot many students were already using for free.“ www.currentaffairs.org/news/ai-is-d...

Slop Evader is a tool from artist and researcher Tega Brain that lets you search the web for results exclusively before November 30, 2022—the day that ChatGPT was released to the public.

ya know what's gonna be funny? when the ai bubble pops, there are gonna be whole swaths of "art" accounts that suddenly stop posting bc it'll be prohibitively too expensive to pay for whatever's left of the genAI models (it's cheap now bc it's subsidized by venture capital)😂

wow the news is face-meltingly bad lately huh

Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.

「Adam [&] Eve」 📖🍎 #FF7 #sefikura #セフィクラ #NieR #ニーアオートマタ Ever Crisis keeps insisting on covering Cloud from head-to-toe and all i want is for him to be topless in dragonscale pants.

ugliness, misery, and unhappy endings in art are valuable, because they're a part of being human. art helps us understand them. if you can't explore pain in a safe context, all you have when pain comes is terror.

I don’t know if anyone else notices or cares, but when I see a presentation in which the speaker uses obviously generated-AI images to illustrate their slides, it makes me immediately less confident in whatever other content they’re presenting.

The thing about CrunchyRoll’s enshittification is that normally I’m a big proponent of supporting official channels but if the money from subscriptions isn’t being used to pay talent and labour and the quality suffers as a result, then morally what’s the purpose of supporting those official means?

last week i remembered that macOS lets you set your own icons and that *I* have the power to delegitimize the professionalism of the software that runs on my machine, so here's a thread of the 16 new icons i've made so far i really forgot how fun it was to just sit down and make art for myself :')

In my mind she rode him like a bronco in this scene

saw this on twitter.... i am honored that in stars and time made it on the iceberg

The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste

Portrait of Ianthe the Third, gothic painting style I think she’d approve of. #ianthetridentarius #tlt #lockedtomb #gideiontheninth #illustrator #artist

I NEVER WANT TO SAVE TO ONEDRIVE I OWN A FUCKING COMPUTER FOR A REASON

Post your most popular art from Twitter It couldn't be any other I guess 😅

breaking up big tech, enforcing regulation, and building alternative open-source infrastructure has never been more urgent

The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

The GOP (including those who run Mastercard and Visa) has never been the party of small businesses. I think that facade is crumbling at this scale for the first time

What's wild is that in the '80s, sexualized hypnosis was *everywhere* in entertainment aimed at, frankly, children. Just a constant stream of evil women putting the whammy on, primarily, young men and boys. Ask me how I know!

The fact that "hypnosis" has become one of the concepts regularly banned on adult websites makes me feel fully insane. We are truly living in the nightmare return of every Christian conservative moral panic we ever laughed at.

Hojo in the first phase of his boss fight has a completely unique "death" animation where he ingests some Mako before the phase shift that is never seen due to a few oversights in his battle AI and attack data.

I will never forgive that tweet for suppressing my desire to talk like Sephiroth. I fuckin love talking like Sephiroth. I fuckin love calling people 'impudent.'

Now that's Winter, I'm thinking about NEWSLETTER. But I haven't written anything for one yet... Right now, my energy is going towards preparing Chapter 5 for localization. The translation process begins next week. We have extracted all the English text and we are now annotating it.
