A still from Dust Bunny. A small girl and a bearded man stand holding hands. They are dramatically backlit in a dark alleyway and the man is carrying dim sum boxes on a string.

Dust Bunny was, visually and narratively, a delicious film.

High recommend - in every interpretation of that phrase.

Shout-out to the FINAL 3 🔥 of my childhood GameBoy collection. I sold the other 90% to pay a bill yesterday but these will be cremated with me.

Why am I so against generative AI in games?

Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

My first thought is a pair of artifacts, suspended in gel within the pump cavities so they have some jiggle when you shake them.

I was rooting around my apartment for things to kitbash into a prop. In a very crafty/repurposing headspace, I came across a pair of nipple pumps...

Q1) What tiny cryptids/items should I put in my new nipple pump terrariums?

Q2) Do we think Twitch would get mad if I made them on stream?

Shout out to @teknikolour.bsky.social for the great crafting day shirt!

A scruffy looking Kiptid is holding two bottles of nail polish: one black, the other a purple/green multi-chrome. They are wearing a grey hoodie and a bright blue !vibecheck t-shirt from Teknikolour.

Andy (a striped cat) is laying on a grey couch. Next to him, a tablet playing a macrame YouTube tutorial and a canvas bag printed with tarot iconography.

This is the biggest hint I've given about the project that I've been working on since November. I'm totally fine saying it because out of context it is wild, cryptic, and hilarious:

Today for Twitch... I am giving hot glue a manicure and using embroidery thread to macrame a tiny bag for an iPad.

Kiptid's DM history with the official Spirit City: Lo-Fi Sessions Instagram account. Kip mentioned their account in an Instagram story and the Spirit City account liked it. Hours later, Kiptid sends a DM that says "The new dlc is so good 😭✨ thank you! We love your stuff!"

Is this what "sliding into their DMs" means?

I dressed up for co-working.... But did I put on pants?

When you spend 8 days sick, sitting with your thoughts in your still barely unpacked space (it was a dark winter, alright?) that Spring Cleaning Bug bites real hard as soon as you're well enough to start puttering around again. 🫪

I'm finally feeling like... 98% better and ooo it feels good to get a little bit of actual energy back.

😤 There's work to be done!

Speaking to the people he was elected to lead, educating on the history of the day we are celebrating, highlighting the reasons the day is important culturally, and tying it to present actions and contexts.

Not dunking on political opponents. Serving his community and keeping them informed. 💚

Potentially my most absurd and comically pretentious idea yet:

An oversized coffee table book that I curate of my favorite Instagram stories from my account, preserved in this book to commemorate when I delete said longest running Meta account that has seen SEVERAL versions of me.

"we’re still facing legacy commitments that are burdening the business.”

Business speak for "we fucked around and are now finding out."

I owe every single person in my life an apology at this point.

It's rare that I get annoyingly excited to see a particular internet person on screen but when I sit down to watch Vic and whatever they have in store for that Thursday night's episode of Very Important People...

Oh this is SO exciting!!! I kinda want to do a weekly watch of Classic Who now... I've kinda jumped all over in my viewings and never a proper weekly scifi romp as intended!

Oh dang... You're reminding me that I don't think I ever finished Battlestar... I gotta get back on that!

Tonight's stream was really fun y'all. Thank you 💖

Grammarly Is Facing a Class Action Lawsuit Over Its AI ‘Expert Review’ Feature The feature, which Grammarly shut down Wednesday, presented editing suggestions as if they came from established authors and academics—without their consent.

I'm suing Grammarly over its paid AI feature that presented editing suggestions as if they came from me - and many other writers and journalists - without consent.

State law requires consent before someone's name can be used for commercial purposes.

I used to be a vegan baker and my go-to for mimicking buttermilk in a recipe was to add a shot of apple cider vinegar to soy milk, whisk it, and let it sit for a few minutes.

Yes, I am a caricature of myself. I couldn't remember if I ever finished this movie so figured I'd pop it on while sick day crafting.

Zionist Jumpscare: The Mothman Prophecies when you forget Debra Messing is in it.

Woke up sick. No stream tonight.

Remember to be kind to yourself and mean to ICE

Now I'm trying to remember how many times I've watched Sinners...
1. In theatres.
2. July 4th when it was released on HBO Max.
3. July 5th because I enjoyed it so much on July 4th I wanted to do it again.
4. October during one of my scary movie nights.

Okay, this'll be viewing 5 😅
