My son is 11,autistic, and obsessed with Minecraft. I manage a team of 4 Database Engineers. At some point I started to talk to them like how the parenting courses told me to communicate with my son and the team morale and overall performance has shot up so much we got an award

i guess he will

ARTISTS PUT YOUR SIGNATURE ON YOUR DANG WORKS I'm so sad every time I see cool art, and I have no idea where it came from. PUT YOUR NAME ON IT, DANG IT I WANNA FIND YOU

i hate that i can never trust anything online anymore cute video? what if it’s AI impressive artwork? what if it’s AI people online? what if they’re AI seriously fuck this shit i hate the fact that AI got mainstream and then the grift ruined the internet’s trust Also fuck anyone who uses it.

I oppose conversion therapy, a dangerous and cruel practice. And I oppose ABA, whose origins were the basis of conversion therapy, and is still the leading treatment for autism. Let people be who they are. Provide them the freedom and support to thrive as their true selves. No forced conformity.

this is turning out to be one of the onion's all-time classics

Pretty sure without music the world doesn’t even spin

I gotta laugh at all of the arguments that socialized health care would make wait times longer because...honey...we gotta pay AND there's long wait times for doctors NOW. Can't get a decent ENT until the end of April

I hate when I see people on this site using AI to make political posts. Like that’s a MAGA thing; using AI instead of using their actual brains. Picture relevant

I swear I actually am making a video game it’s just that in order to do basically any art for it I need to recode RPGmaker’s animation engine and IDK how to do that rn.

Okay, let's get the AI discussion entirely out of the hype-and-theory realm. For the "I'll just vibe code and trust the LLM folks," here's an interesting page showing results from asking several LLMs to perform a simple coding task (creating an HTML/CSS clock): [clocks.brianmoore.com/]. 1/6

Hey, old Democrats, your party is corrupt and feckless. Hey, young 'idealists,' not voting for the lesser evil *in the general* is voting for Trump. Both are true. The solution is to get involved. Anyone arguing against voting is a NAZI liar. Don't trust them.

Really don’t need to hear third party voters complaining about people who voted for Kamala. Look at where we are right now.

I wanna post shit about da game im making rn but there’s like 0 art that isn’t either engine default or placeholder so i got nothing real to show.

Whether you draw, or paint, or compose, or mix - whatever form of art you choose to create, make it exist. Bring it to life. Create it in a tangible form that can be enjoyed. It need not be perfect. It might need work. It might serve as practice. It might even remain unfinished. Just create. 😁

Shoutout to everyone out there making music, making art, and otherwise being creative. Much love and respect.

MAN

Stop!!! Calzone time.

Just to tie the loose ends up here, the gift is out. It’s called an album, and it came out yesterday actually but I’m not as active online rn due to being on break and not having the time to doomscroll.

Im now officially making a gaem. Thas all buh bye

major tom implies the existence of minor tom and major minor seventh tom

“I brought this horrid creature into the world, and now I must take him out!” Winfrey said

this has become a very important video to me

Make racists afraid again

I heard that now they're placing people who criticize ICE under surveillance. I want it to be known to the entire world that I despise ICE to the core and I think their entire institution should be abolished. They are cruel, inhumane, and are examples of the worst of humanity Fuck ICE Fuck Fascism.

Announcement for the like 7 ppl who listen to my music: Imma give y’all a late Christmas gift you’ll see!

Me: Introverts, assemble! Introverts: Absolutely not.

Nothing would bring me more holiday cheer than the AI bubble bursting in conjunction with terrible "Black Friday" sales so that I can enjoy the tech bros' and CEOs' shrieks all holiday season long.

I have like a shit ton of this worldbuilding that I’ve been doing for fun and it’s like basically done but I’m scared to publish it even though no one will care anyway. Like I literally learned how to use an entire site for things like that and now I’m scared to make this publicly available info…

oh no am i the repost man

I’ve been seeing an alarming increase in the “cute animal video but it’s actually AI” on this site and like what do you get out of this? What is the point of lying? Are you that lonely and pathetic that you need to fake animal videos to feel like you’re someone?

what i like about Vocaloids is that they're simultaneously fictional characters you can be a fan of and actual musical instruments. what if Tuba and Trombone had beef. what if Bassoon was gay

I'm so tired of having to look out for AI generated garbage at all times. I found a soundtrack cover/remix and the person who posted it admitted they used Gen AI to write the lyrics, not to mention the amount of AI albums on YouTube that advertise themselves as "human made"... gross

We should outlaw christmas music in October.

I can tell you with 100% truth after all these revletions, I'm not going to vote for Zohran Mamdani because I don't and never have lived in NYC If I lived there, I sure as fuck would be voting for him. I hope for NYC he wins.

You guys know that YouTube thing where “This social media site sings this song!” Has anyone done that for this site with the song Mr Blue Sky by Electric Light Orchestra?

Oh wait I just realized I hit 1k followers. Cool

Every ai video sucks because they’re never more than their prompts, you’re like ‘yeah that’s a video of a dinosaur eating chips whilst skateboarding,” but like that’s it - you could just post your prompt and it’d be the same. But every real piece of film contains MORE than just its script

Need some alternative to Spotify any suggestions?

Free the #AlabamaPenis

Just going to put this out there bcause it’s kinda important: Don’t use AI gen images. Even if it’s for some form of messaging or whatever. Don’t. It hurts the message you’re trying to send. Badly. It makes it look like you don’t actually respect your cause. You look lazy.

Fuck Ice.

I think the basic problem with all these low-effort horror movie adaptations of recently-public-domain cartoon characters is they always make the titular character the monster. Like, nobody gives a shit about a film where Mickey Mouse is a zombie; they want to see Mickey Mouse FIGHT the zombies!

After making this comment now I kinda want someone to make a shitposty mini rpg about this. It would be so funny.

One curious thing on this site about speaking out against the encroachment of LLMs is that inevitably you get accused of being anti-tech. I don’t hate technology. I’ve used machine learning in my own code before. But I also recognize that oligarchs are so hellbent on pushing this tech for a reason.
