Going to bed, gonna try to have art night tonight. Still trying to make cash for rent, if anyone is interested.

We've had autocorrect for years, how have we not made it not-useless? It's either repeatedly breaking your sentences because it thinks you meant a totally different word, or completely missing the basic errors and mispellings it SHOULD be catching. And it's never not at either extreme.

I find myself itching for an outlet to be able to talk about my writing and worldbuilding, an avenue to bounce my ideas off people and evolve the concepts. Maybe a stream now and then on twitch trying to experiment with that format.

Through the power of @alfyria.bsky.social and @merrowbrush.bsky.social ... I am very squishy. #Vtuber #art

Conversation on TSF has prompted me to think about how an alien language system will probably resemble more an esoteric system of formal mathematics than, like, a human language, as human language consists of a small subset of logical principles and operations by which things could be described

If you look into the history of Arthurian myths or any fairytale/folklore history, you‘ll realize that the tradition building off of others peoples work is just a part human nature.

“Joyless site that lacks whimsy” is exactly how I would describe Twitter. It’s just nothing but drama, toxicity, and ragebait. It only lacks whimsy to people who haven’t showered in months. It’s a cesspool of shit to anyone who isn’t terminally online.

The Weekly Roll Ch. 197. "Yet Another One Bites The Dust"

Thinking on the wasted potential of #genLOCK, & realized that not only could Kazu's arc have him unlearn his toxic mindset, but also potentially realize that she's transfem from experiencing Val's memories of gender dysphoria & euphoria. ... Transfems & #mechsplotation really do go hand-in-hand 🏳️‍⚧️

Weird being old enough to have seen all the reviews for live action Grinch saying it was a pointless remake of a perfectly wonderful animated film - a common criticism of a lot of flicks nowadays - and then reach the point where it’s seemingly overtaken the original altogether in people’s hearts.

You get out of this site what you put into it. If all you do is post every so often with whatever your latest content is, no one's going to give a fuck about you here. You need to actually mingle here. Reply to people, reskeet shit. Post more than once a week.

Creative solidarity means: If you're a writer, do not use AI "art" or AI "voiceover" If you're an artist, do not use AI "writing" or AI "references" If you're a streamer/actor, do not use AI for backdrops, thumbnails, etc. Never help AI steal another medium No excuses, no shortcuts, no surrender.

Welcome back to the stage of history

I think next year, I'll want to try and get into the habit of actually posting writing and my own personal concepts here on the regular. Like, snippets, passages, ideas. I got so much in my brain, I really want to have a place to ramble about it.

🦋 Welcome to Buesky! 🦋 It's long past time to leave the Nazi bar, and you'll have a much better time here. I updated this guide due to the influx of users fleeing Grok's new AI bullshit. Share widely for all the newcomers!

Users are noticing Twitter/X has added a Grok-powered AI image editor that lets anyone edit any image on the platform, including other people’s artwork using text prompts. Artists warn there’s no opt-out or consent, raising concerns over unauthorized edits and misuse.

Knowing both the economics and the technology makes the AI bubble even more crazy-making The industry is absurdly unprofitable, has no realistic path to profitability beyond betting on AGI coming soon, and if you know the tech you know AGI is not coming within our lifetimes

Officially discontinued my subscription, been procrastinating a bit while building new playlists on YouTube in the meantime. Feels good to indulge the old playlist crafting pasttime, no matter the medium.

Ebyssian 100% needs to have highmountain tauren horns in his black aspect form, so since Blizzard won't do it, I will give this black dragon the horns he deserves 🐂 Also Wrathion should have been the aspect, fight me. R3TWE3TS AND C0MM3NTS HIGHLY APPRECIATED 💙

This is an astonishingly elegant metaphor, especially in a day and age of the techbros using Tolkien for actual "We invented the Torment Nexus from the bestselling Sci-Fi novel 𝘋𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘐𝘯𝘷𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘛𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘕𝘦𝘹𝘶𝘴" products.

🚨🔥🔥🔥🚨 If we are to keep our industry alive against AI, some of you need to wake up. Your neglect is killing the momentum and strides, on top of harming more people than you help. Do some research. Read a book. Learn history. Stop defending corps. And now, some specifically unspecific callouts. 📣

I refuse to shut up about this: NYC started charging $9 to bring a car into our most transit-rich zone, the haters & trolls predicted doom, but traffic evaporated instantly and here’s Times Square tonite (even after the holiday tourists have left). For a better future, build transit & price driving!

Not sure if anyone is going to see this message or if Bsky is gonna bork again and hide it like the last two. If it doesn't? Here's your notice that I'll be going live on Twitch again here soon with more #BountyStar!

all the articles you read about this will say it "would charge doctors" but there is nothing in the bill limiting the felony crime to medical providers. you could write "would charge parents" and be just as correct. news outlets downplay it because news outlets are transphobic.

Bluesky tonight is neatly divided between trans people and family members appropriately angry and freaking out and everyone else who has barely noticed.

I'm not sure I've ever seen anything with a larger disconnect between the executive class and the general public than AI - there have been cases where executives want to push something they know is unpopular, but on AI it's like the backlash hasn't penetrated their bubble at all

You really can't minimize the use of genAI without shitting on the labor you are replacing with it. "We only use it to ideate and explore references! Unimportant things that don't matter! Nobody cares about those things, right? We all agree this is unimportant garbage work, right???"

consider my feedback: i loved working at @larianstudios.com until AI. reconsider and change your direction, like, yesterday. show your employees some respect. they are world-class & do not need AI assistance to come up with amazing ideas.

Apropos to a post I'm not going to quote: no, you are not fucking obliged to battle the fucking right on fucking social media, or go to where they are. Why make yourself miserable shouting at bots (who don't care) or trolls (who get off on your misery). Make your fucking social media enjoyable, FFS.

Glitch Productions responds to Disney licencing over 200 characters to Sora and ChatGPT and investing $1 BILLION in OpenAI in a new post: “the fuck are they doing”

the fuck are they doing

it’s been over a month and i still have $739 left to raise to be able to move on time! 😬 please share and if you can send money, send here: ca: $adrianmica v: lex-thee-lovely pp: [email protected] thank you to everyone who has already shared and donated! you’re helping save my life. 💌

Hypothetical Scenario: "Shit, I got an invader! I know, I'll use my chameleon sorcery in the Crystal Cavern beneath the Duke's Archives. I'll be able to hide so long as the disguise doesn't stick out like a lectern in a crystal cave..." The Disguise:

🧵 I've been a writer for my entire life, and worked very hard to get where I got by 2022. I was making a 100k a year, though I live in an expensive city. Suddenly it was just gone. I had three careers, really, and they all vanished because of AI, and suddenly I was struggling each month to pay rent.

my stupid chud son, the day you were born, the very forests of Lordaeron whispered the name Arthas

CANCEL your Fortnite subscriptions and DELETE the game from all your computers. Choosing—and yes, it is a CHOICE— to license Harry Potter in 2025 sends a message: "We do not care about trans people." No amount of Miku or trans-colored cosmetic items can make up for this. bsky.app/profile/jazz...

Feeling like a “trans rights” kinda post day.

If y'all stopped calling these people and letting them know how you feel, you might wanna pick up the phone and start doing it again. They're still doing this purity bullshit.

Nobody knows who they are and no they aren't credited anywhere. You'd think these actors, if they were being paid appropriately and treated ethically, would be talking about their work here.

We can’t afford a $1M trailer slot 😔 But reposts on Bluesky cost $0 - and they really help tiny teams like ours ❤️ If cozy medieval creativity is your thing, here’s our Scriptorium trailer!

reminder that companies pay attention to METRICS. installing this justifies further HP garbage, even if it's free, because it shows interest in the product. do not claim it. let HP die.
