And so here we are, watching the President and a modern robber baron lose their minds on each other clearly demonstrating they should be impeached/fired/sued/jailed, and not only is nothing happening, the supposed opposition party is saying this isn't important, it's a distraction, ignore it.

I was there, I was protesting, I was screaming with my young fulp voice, and now a person the age I was then thinks I didn't exist because we have a corporate media structure that homogenizes. I've been screaming about AI for years, but when it gets bad it will be "no one predicted" narratives

In a town hall last week, I asked about our handling of ai hallucinations. Almost immediately, I had a dm from some guy proselytizing and thanking me for think “beyond the edge cases”. It it absolutely bonkers

I’ve been meaning to ask everyone about this. I recently realized I’ve been using “🎲 = game” and “✂️ = craft”.
Design question for 🎲✂️ folks:
-Could adding this to the feed description be useful?
-Is it worth being concerned that, adding ✂️🎲 could dilute the semantic value of the emoji rebus-puzzle?

Aha. I knew it would be helpful to share the match list. Good call. I totally missed that because I don’t use hashtags often. I’ll add this tomorrow

slowly. I'm gonna come back to it at a later time. This is probably the best I've got for today. Tomorrow, I'll give it another shot

🤔 I have a new favorite game and I wanna talk about it. Lemme see if I can find a way to warp this dichotomy into something useful 💭

Your question immediately reminded me of a comment I was reading on one of @danthurot.bsky.social’s post about one of @xoe.gay games yesterday. Maybe check out Jepp’s comment thread at the bottom

What about cynical disgust towards marketing?

I’ve made this point, about playtesting, being marketing but I got a lot of pushback. I think their point stands regardless. Marketing is promotion for promotion-sake. I guess that’s different than marketing being a side effect of sharing what interests us

I’ve only been using publisher for a month or so. I haven’t a clue what I’m missing out on, but I just started using artboards and love them so far. I’m also using symbols to create instances of templates and icons.
Data merge is also super helpful, even if a bit confusing.

Month four rolls in. I've not been able to cash a check. I can't vote. I can't rent. I can't do any of the things that that little plastic rectangle gives me access to.
More waiting.

I love the specificity of tip 1. I would prefer to skip that interaction and go for hard facts of whether or not it would actually get used, but alas, I listen after being told twice
