Tbh my black paint dried out and I can't get more until August, so I've started trying my hand at writing. Nothing to monetize, but maybe to at least share around with friends if it goes anywhere.

Looks great tho! Unless by crappy you mean the materials used, which would certainly be unique

Spokane cops always been like this. I mindlessly crossed the corner of a taped off area as a kid when Clinton came to speak. SPD officer came into the crowd, made physical contact to ask why I did that. I just have ADHD, didn't mean to breach national security over the 3 feet of concrete I walked.

Finally I understood something about these changing times. This worlds leaving me behind.

Not a computer programmer but is that pattern identifying the sort of thing machine learning could help with? Maybe make a way for Bluesky to identify bots and catch them in the act before people even need to interact with them?

Ultimate testament to one's self control is leaving the hobby shop with EXACTLY what you went for. No "oh, I bet I could use that someday..." Or "I've been meaning to get one of those..."

I kinda balk at $60 too. $80 is almost half a 12 shift for me. Being night shift already costs additional free time in recovery. That and economy way it is, I *cannot* buy a recreational product at $80. AAA can set the price they want but... A lot of indies are cheaper and work on release day. 🤷

Wait like in the actual ICE offices or like people let them into their offices when getting raided and said "I'll be right back" and then just shoved a desk across the door after leaving the room?

Playing with toys that let them feel like real men. 40mm can be used for "bean bag" rounds or tear gas cans.
Still dangerous to use, they're called less than lethal.
Incredibly dangerous and stupid to use one, since they're going into buildings and "detaining" people.
It's dress up for ICE.

You got the gradient on the purple and white just right! That looks so cool!

Bad month for all these alternative paths to publishing, between this and Prose

Surprised John Mitchinson is just up and abandoning the whole ordeal. He sounds so kind on Backlisted, I'd kinda of expected him to stick around and fight on behalf of the authors.

"need to be convinced" is an awfully ambitious phrase there

Complete absence of both comfort and style, you say? Well count me in!

Well, my parents filmed my brother's birth on VHS if I recall right...

I'd like a community. Not necessarily a discord or something, but if someone wrote a fanfic of my work or drew something of it that'd be cool. A friend in high school drew a character from a short story I had written and that was the coolest feeling ever.

I've been watching your updates on this for a lil while and it's been a highlight of the time. Can't wait to see your next project.

Amazing. You're a damned artist.

It's not just the angle. It's A) the behavior of the first craft's loitering maneuvers and B) both craft's maneuvers when they're supposedly in tandem.
I would also wager the final series of explosions in the last few seconds of the video are animation, but I'm not an AV person.

Not to mention the flattest turret armor possible. Almost no chancing of glancing a shot with those sides.

Are those cows or pigs I spy in the lower corner? How do those interact with the rest of the game?

I love the blue highlights you got going here. They look like they glow! Nice background in the photo, too. What material did you use for it?

Just to be clear though, they DIDN'T use AI, right? I wasn't a huge fan of the game but the art seemed nice.

Someone in my writers' club mentioned they want to do a multiverse with their works. And I was like ?!? You mean, a series or a collection or anthology? Marvel has ruined a generation of creatives in the lamest way possible.

"Minutes after DOGE accessed the NLRB's systems, someone with an IP address in Russia started trying to log in... using one of the newly created DOGE accounts... had the correct username and password"
It does say the attempt was blocked but good Lord...
