This was just me playing with procreate's new brushes but I actually like how this came out? 😳 Briar's dating profile pic (that his mom prob pushed him to set up let's be real lol)

Not to be the fun police but I do hope people know that Arc Raiders does use generative AI for voice acting, and by supporting the game you're letting higher-ups know that this is an okay practice. They try to downplay this on the Steam store page by describing the AI usage as vaguely as possible.

He has now erased fully 10% of the term to which Grijalva was elected.

New — While some states have received SNAP benefits for November and USDA is supposedly pushing through all federal payments soon, that doesn’t erase the psychological terror of the last few weeks. I spoke with 20+ SNAP recipients in 16 states about preparing for a possible future with no food:

Seen as it looks like I won't have a main job for a while (and seen as I haven't been paid anything since September) if you'd like to support the work that I do through Romancing the Gothic, you can! You can also buy courses (in case you didn't know!) ko-fi.com/samhirst

sleep. jaw hurts. practice at 9am. one more week. too much. everything is too much.

It would be cool if the Dem's asked their donors to open their pockets and help them feed people instead of just whinging about it on social media. Ordinary people are doing more than the party that supposedly cares about its constituents. Get creative. People are hungry.

When official sources of information dry up or become unreliable, rumors and conspiracy theories take their place. That does not always bode well for whoever is in power.

If you're wondering how this will go Square Enix handed off their mobile Octopath game to NetEase who immediately started using ChatGPT to translate everything resulting in text like this. When players complained they started asking fans to fix their translations in exchange for in-game currency

SNAP has existed for 60 years. Benefits have gone out every single month over those six decades, including during government shutdowns. Until now. Make no mistake: The money is available to fund SNAP during this shutdown. Trump is making a choice to withhold it. Don’t forget this.

Now we know where all that Spotify money is going. Not to the artists - perish the thought. No, the CEO has invested it all in AI weaponry designed to kill humans. I wish this were a joke. www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

”The ‘welfare queen’ stereotype persists today despite the fact that more white people are on public assistance than any other group." Experts say the clips are being created to obscure the economic stakes of the SNAP shutdown.

Reposting because, and I say this with love, some of you are going to see this and go “oh shit, I need to check my bottle” and then immediately forget about it so if this could affect you, go check right now before you even scroll to the next post, I mean it.

y'all there was no one more hayseed than me my first time in nyc and i dropped my wallet and a guy sped after me screaming and returned it then told me the best place to eat I've always eaten there (almost?) every time I've been to Times Square too lol

Interesting story and timing of the announcement. The mayor was re-elected yesterday with 83 percent of the vote, which is likely more than Kobach has ever earned in Coldwater, Kan. #ksleg kansasreflector.com/2025/11/05/s...

A couple of reminders for context on SNAP: The avg SNAP benefit is around $6.20/day. And it can take up to two weeks to reload EBT cards, so deciding today to partially fund SNAP through contingency funds -- which took a damn lawsuit for them to do -- is still inadequate. apnews.com/article/snap...
