Got annoyed enough at seeing people post screencaps of this dumb fucks tweets I opened a substack to yell about it. Feel free to give me money. (There will eventually be private content) open.substack.com/pub/kriswolf...

Joked with @coopercooperco.bsky.social on Twitter that Ricky Jay doesn’t throw cards at people in Tomorrow Never Dies - despite it being an obvious gimmick for him - because he must have thrown one once and injured someone so they cut it, and turns out that’s almost exactly what happened

Shout out to these two guards outside the Ace Attorney courtroom for witnessing some of the most incredible, blatant collusion between defense and prosecution, on the regular no less, and keeping their fuckin' mouths shut about it. The real heroes of the series

Van Hollen: "There's no Article 4 in the Constitution that gives Elon Musk that authority, and the way he's been 'delegated' this authority is illegal, and the actions he's taking are illegal, and we need to shut down this illegal operation."

this is my simple thesis about why your (generic your, not specific) “the Internet you remember from the late 2000s wasn’t really less toxic”: yes it was because the people from the flame wars didn’t use to be the most powerful people in the world *and therefore it was an escape from the world*

Just a reminder that at @accessnow.org we just published a brief on satellite internet connectivity warning about... well, this. We will discuss this topic further at an upcoming session at @rightscon.org CC @lawyerpants.bsky.social www.accessnow.org/wp-content/u...

Instead of AI they should invest in what we all really want: better anime wallpapers that change with the time of day in Japan.

i rely on medicaid to get my regular bipolar psych meds and care. medicaid is what allows me to work and live independently and function reasonably well. if you've ever enjoyed my comics in the past, or plan to enjoy my comics in the future, please call! hell even if you just enjoy my posts lmao

dear games industry analyst & biz dev friends: that filter you really wanted so you could very quickly point out just how fucking stupid adding gen AI to your game on steam just came out if you weren’t looking at this already: yeah, it is that much of a death sentence on sales/wishlists/users

another big update from me! i've been sitting on this for a week, unsure of how to write this up.. but i've gotten the total cost for my top surgery, which is $19.6k. i can't raise this money alone, even with all of the work i do, so i've made a gofundme. gofund.me/954d116c

Don't use AI. Just stop. NO, not even for "good" reasons. If you don't give af about the fact it's built on stolen work (hey, mine are among the millions of works ripped off, btw), care about the devastating environmental impacts, the financial impacts. It's all bad.

I remember a documentary about the moral panic surrounding "Video Nasties" in the UK, where a researcher at the time took a list of movies half of which were made up and asked schoolchildren about them, which ended up with 2/3rds of kids claiming to have seen horror movies that didn't exist...

This entire morning has been @leaf-tilde.itch.io, @opensketchbook.bsky.social and I on Discord, demanding different Dragon Cobolt accounts to tell us something only he would know, like we're in a horror movie with doppelgangers.

Some people will look at this and only see how foolish it is. But what it also is an attempt to set up a blameless, unaccountable arbiter by inserting automation into a “decision making” process. And tbh I wish more people at more news outlets would call that out.

The earnest replies to this... imagine running across Jon Bois and being like, "oh honey, no, there isn't going to be any football 15,751 years from now, and it probably wouldn't look like that."

genuinely frustrating how 'a machine that can recognize patterns really, really, really well' is not being used for any of the things it might actually be good at and is instead burning more money than any other technology in human history to try and crowbar it into The Employee Mulcher

I think i need to take a warfrqke break cause i have played too fucking much and my addictiony brain is kicking in

I can only hope the recent success of the Silent Hill 2 Remake will convince Konami executives to sell us video games again. I can buy most Castlevania and Metal Gear Solid games, why is Silent Hill off the table?

This is a Hard Wired Island character's name

The public comment period for changing passports to misgender trans people is open. Please take a moment to let them know that you do not support that change.

you need to play at least one game that youtuber consensus fucking hates and form your own opinion. Your taste in games will improve significantly if you do this simple action

i miss forums existing because i would join one for model kits but they don't exist anymore, they've been replaced by discord, which is not conducive to good posting and also the idea of joining a hobby discord that forcibly has like 12000 members sounds like absolute hell

New variation dropped yet feels very familiar...

This is also why they want to dismantle the Department of Education by the way. They don’t want the government forcing them to teach anything beyond their rigid belief systems and monitoring their behavior. It’s all connected.

YOUNG MAN, there's no need to feel down i said YOUNG MAN, pagliacci the clown you can SEE HIM he is playing in town you should go and have a good time

People are asking for writing advice again, so here is my perennial guidance for writing in video games 🔽

Man, really Apple? Really? It literally says “Image Creation” and “Chat GPT Extension”. Hidden under SCREEN TIME. Gah!!! These tech bros are literally trying to shove this junk down our throats. Keep resisting it. It’s so dumb.

What the Trump administration wants to do by creating these camps is monstrous enough. But a key thing I found when writing a book on concentration camp history is that when you establish this kind of detention, it tends over time to devolve into much worse kinds of camps.

As promised, here are the slides I shared with students to convince them to NOT use chatGPT and other artificial stupidity. TL;DR? AI is evil, unsustainable and stupid, and I'd much rather they use their own brains, make their own mistakes, and actually learn something. 🪄

THIS IS HOW YOU STAND UP: EEOC admin judge Karen Ortiz resisted an order to hand over all LGBT cases for “review” and told colleagues to resist too. She knows she’ll likely to be fired. “I can exist on cornflakes and community if it means that my soul is intact.” www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/u...

"the point of writing is to make it clear that there's something wrong with you" Yeah yeah but what if the things wrong with me are embarrassing, what then
