Just a reminder: Kamala Harris was one of the first elected officials to marry LGBTQ couples in the US as San Francisco DA. Just sharing for young folks who may not know this. www.advocate.com/news/kamala-...

Sukhjot Singh "This fierce peregrine mom was patrolling her territory to provide a safe airspace for her newly fledged babies. I thought she was going to attack a few gulls that flew close, but she decided to take a hard right and turn around, offering a rare face-to-face moment with the camera."

I still don't know what exactly has been going on with the lethargy I've been feeling lately. If I get enough sleep and work from home, I can just about handle my job, but then I get bizarrely sleepy around dinnertime and then I'm somehow wide awake from like 11pm to 1.

The purpose of AI is to find statistical averages in otherwise erratic inputs. It's basically a regression of creativity and lived experience; using it for artistic reasons only restricts you to mediocrity. Use everything in your creative arsenal to become an outlier!

Asked and answered, I guess. I had a dream about the Cosmos Corps (which Simka is a member of) giving me access to their "island warehouse". Not a warehouse on an island, but an archive of fragments of worlds they've managed to save from obliteration but that are incomplete on their own.

Pencil sketch of Simka leading Nada somewhere. There are things she wants to teach him about perspective, about worlds, about creation, and about the connections between people, between places, and between both.

The honest reason I don't have microtransactions/season pass/ads/100 DLCs/etc in Balatro isn't just about the ethics of those practices but because when I play other games that have those things it makes me want to put my computer in the dishwasher and set it to pots & pans

If CGA is with us, who can be against us?

And, in my case, personal aversion is not the same as general disapproval. I _want_ you all to be free to make the freakiest queerest porn you're capable of, I just won't want to see 99% of it. I know my tastes are "wrong"; I draw what I want to, and I want you all to draw what you want to.

A bit of short fiction I was pointed to earlier, themed around Second Life, MUSHes, and the Internet of largely 20-ish years ago. It's a fascinating and nostalgic story, for me, though I still wonder about the disclaimer up front: what's the true inspiration for this? blackle.itch.io/bteq

Context for last post: this is Jon St John, voice actor for Duke Nukem, and he's absolutely a solid ally.

Good point bellhop, there's nothing more suspicious than someone practicing their French in... Montreal? (the game is trying to give me a hint that she's in Paris, for the record)

Flicker, of Crimson Canyon. He spends most of his time asleep, but he's the inventive lazy sort who's automated most of his own job away. When anyone needs something hammered back into shape or custom-wrought from metal, he doesn't mind the work (as long as he can get back to bed).

Translation isn’t simply plugging words into a dictionary and spitting out the “same” word in a different language. It requires knowledge of grammar and context. It’s a skill that AI simply cannot replicate because a good translation drips with humanity.

Pencil sketch of Ruby, casually leaning on some Bitkin-scaled blocks depicting her name. They've been on my mind again; I always liked them as a cast of characters and I hope I can finally do justice someday to how I see and hear them in my own head.
