I'm concerned that one thing game companies will use genAI for is populating background details like fake magazines, store shelf products, and book covers. This is what they're trying to take from us. This is what's at stake. (Vampire Masquerade Bloodlines, Dead Rising, and Plastic Battlegrounds VR)

So, it's my birthday Friday! The best way to support me is still to back my Patreon; that income lets me choose which projects I work on, support and feed members of my community, and remain relatively safe at a time when it, uh, doesn't exactly rule to be a trans woman.

apropos of nothing, I came up being told this saying about the omelets and the eggs was characteristically Stalinist. (Can't blame the capitalists particularly either; apparently it goes back to the 18th C)

this thread is the best short story I have read in a sec

His eyes are hollow The hour is late This Kong is A slave to fate

if you'd like to play a scholomance game without backing a transphobe, Klei's got a good game out

This is so fucking good

I’m laughing and crying

This rules

Quote post this with a picture of the airplane you'll accept as a bribe

this guy fucking rules. much like how Teddy Roosevelt was the “ur-American” of his time —a rugged warrior obsessed with new frontiers to conquer— Trump is the ur-American of the 21st century. He’s mister eats burger on golden toilet tweeting from his phone eating candy and meth. Mandate of heaven.

oh good we're doing NYT discourse again. i loved last time we did this and i got blocked by hundreds of people for prizing my own existence over the liberal right to chase that bag
