Still being cautious, but Bryn seems to be almost totally back to normal now.

If anyone in the toledo area is moving next few months I am on the lookout for a roommate

Unreposted the last post because I failed to realize the WeRateDogs guy made his way over here. Did he ever apologize for being racist or did he just continue his shtick after he was called out for it?

When a sitting representative refers to the Super Bowl halftime show as “pornography,” people should use that to reflect on how they and other representatives are simultaneously working to ban, censor, and restrict “pornography” and what that actually means

No. It's a bad technology that damages the world, puts people out of work, and any usage bolsters the companies that are desperately clinging to this bubble before it pops. We are going to beat them and we will do it with hard work and solidarity, not more misinformation.

I have been with Magic since Alpha. But WotC listen, if you put her properties in Magic... even a single secret lair, even a single card... we break up forever. Leave your keys on the table, I change the locks, I get a new number, I see you in public I don't know you type shit.

Farewell is a game changer now...

It's so cool how a bunch of kids realized there was a genocide in the middle east in 2023 and now suddenly every major company and government is tripping over their own dicks to turn the world into an Orwllian surveillance state so that never happens again.

This is what I mean when I say that billionaires are a closed, incredibly stupid social circle. Loudly declaring 'Fuck Tim Sweeney! I'm backing Good Guy Gabe' is just falling into the trap. They're functionally identical. Newell is just better at keeping quiet about his brain-worms. Usually.

I've been trying to follow a structured, fundamentals-forward approach to learning how to draw, but I think just trying to draw things I want to draw and identifying things I'm struggling with and focusing in on those has yielded better results so far. I want to keep trying to draw characters.

Uni2 is half price right now on steam btw 🙂

The Under Night retrospective ends with me talking about how the game succeeded because it was made with a small team on a small budget while other giant games failed because it was impossible to meet expectations. I wrote that a month ago and it sucks it just became way more relevant.

ANNOUNCING: Gorillas in the MiSTer, our new retro fighting game event. Join us May 9th in Norman OK for five brackets of throwback fun. Signups go live soon. Thanks to @polarbair.neocities.org for our extremely great flyer!

Sorry to vent on main but I'm just so sick of being a grown-ass adult online who can't openly enjoy talking about or drawing sex stuff even in completely adult spaces where all minors are completely banned just because everyone has gotta be such fascist controlling fucking babies about it

I was already kinda pissed off and feeling shitty today over the state of things, both some things in my life and in the world at large, but now I have to add heartache to it. Things are just fundamentally broken and I'm so tired of seeing everybody suffering for it.

Patreon subscribers get early access to comic releases, behind the scenes stuff, and nsfw art, so please consider supporting my work through there. Thanks very much 🙏 patreon.com/koh

🪽 ARCADE ANGEL #2: GOODBYE 🪽 I had this scheduled to publish for today since last week, but it's feeling particularly ironic now considering the game dev news this morning. Sigh. Anyway, shoutouts to Arcade Infinity. Long live fighting games. #angelarcade

In one 30-minute stretch, three legal observers were arrested — as Trump’s Border czar Tom Homan calls on locals to “end the resistance.”

We're making all your websites shitty and evil. What are you gonna do, log off and spend time with your family

Forums are nostalgic to people of exactly my age, but I think they just have a different combination of the weaknesses of chat clients and social media. I think what ppl miss is having a small, close-knit community, and that's increasingly hard to replicate as corpos own it all.

I'd be more pressed about the Discord news if I didn't already know it was coming and wasn't already working on accepting that we are likely all going to have to reconfigure a ton of how we go about our daily lives to navigate all the shit we have coming.

find me on LJ, find me on dreamwidth, find me on hit Red Dead Redemption 2 Online RP server WildWestRP, find me on anything other than discord because I'm not handing over any documents lol

Just got this email back. Don't use email, use their form: support.discord.com/hc/en-us/req... If you haven't used their support portal, you may need to request activation and use the email you have associated with your disc account. Hit the same points as you would in an email, tips below ⬇️

no amount of state propaganda will ever convince me these people are my enemy

It's a good thing I'm committed to art now because everything else I've always done seems like it's going to die off anyway.

Ironic, as this was the magazine that referred to Pokémon as a "pestilential Ponzi scheme" in 1999, characterising its creator Satoshi Tajiri as a literal monster "His eyes are bloodshot; dark circles ripple beneath them... His monsters are a child's predelictions." He never gave another interview.

i forget who made it but it cracks me up lol

I made pizza and cinnamon rolls and drank a couple of beers, but work has me so drained lately that I didn't even bother watching the Super Bowl this year. Struggling to even stay awake.

To be very clear, that lady in the NYT article is not making any money with her hundreds of AI slop books. She makes money by *convincing people* she makes money that way and getting them to pay her to teach them how to do it. It's an evolved MLM, and the NYT is helping market it.

“Renee was not the first person killed, and she was not the last,” Becca Good said. “You know my wife’s name and you know Alex’s name, but there are many others in this city being harmed that you don’t know — their families are hurting just like mine, even if they don’t look like mine.”

There has never been a video game remake that "replaced the original" tank controls are fantastic, actually, and some games would be better with them at this point new consoles are a waste and should go away; we need a new paradigm

90s developers adapting media properties to the ps1

Today, I'm going to attempt to draw a person. Badly, most likely, but I don't care. But while I figure out where to start, here's a baby penguin.

The incident of the Waymo (with passenger) slowing down to rubberneck at the scene of an active police shootout makes so much more sense now

There are major federal tasks forces operating still in Memphis, New Orleans, Miami-Dade, Phoenix, South Texas, still raiding homes, kidnapping people, black-bagging people from courthouses. If ICE does controversial things but doesn't *say* controversial things, it disappears from the news.

The mainstream media needs a "political showdown" story angle to ICE or they won't cover it. What is the red team doing and how is the blue team responding? What are the implications on the midterms or Newsom's or Pritzker's 2028 run? Los Angeles, Chicago, Minneapolis, ICE raids never slowed down.

The fact that mainstream media stopped covering ICE kidnappings in LA isn't because ICE stopped kidnapping (they didn't) Or ICE slowed down (they have actually increased their tempo) Or that resistance to ICE slowed down (it never stopped, it grew) It's the "political showdown" that stopped.

Swear to god, ICE could just announce they're leaving a city but not leave and the media will just stop covering that city completely even though ICE never left. It's what ICE and the media did with LA and they're doing it with Minneapolis too

This reminds me a little of Mel Brooks dealing with studio notes.

Ugly handheld designer and heartless warmonger reached out to me to do unpaid labor. Shocking.

I cannot stand the "this is a good start" discourse. The Democrats in Congress do not want to abolish ICE. They have proposed a series of bog-standard reforms regurgitated by a think tank. Everyone knows they do not work. The Democrats supporting this do not care. They just want to move on.

Every time Tycho is about to speak they should flash this image on screen beforehand

Westboro Baptist Church tried to make an Anti-Luigi Mangione poster but it just looks like Luigi is threatening billionaires and goes unironically hard af

IGN broke an embargo, which must have been annoying, but the Overwatch account absolutely did not need to go calling them out and using a fucking trump slogan in response
