I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

No Kings includes Draft Kings

If you think the Super Bowl is too woke and the Grammys are too woke and the AEW Dynamite crowd is too woke and the Oscars are too woke maybe it’s actually a you problem.

amazing that every time i bring this up people are unaware of it. he really got away with it

I have become a bog witch that only says things on any social media platform when the stars align and the moon is full, but just to make sure this is clear:

Fuck ICE

Fuck Trump

Solidarity to Minnesota

Never be afraid to unplug and focus on the small ways you can resist around you, friends.

The officer who shot Alex worked for DHS for 8 years. The officer who shot Renee worked for DHS for over 10 years. Both are considered “highly trained.”

The problem isn’t "training." DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity. We must MELT ICE and dismantle DHS.

JK Rowling pledges to keep up fight against SNP trans policies Author vows to bankroll campaigners after Scottish government fails to pay group's legal fees in Supreme Court equality case

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

Weird criticism to level at a play about a historical time period in which every single female stage role was performed by a person with a penis

If being hard on yourself worked, it would have worked already

I feel like an internet groundhog these days that emerges every few months, doom scrolls for all of a few minutes, sees the shadow of our crumbling society, and then goes back down under into obscurity.

In case you need it - you're doing your best in hard times, and that is all you can do.

Screen shot from the show Andor. Someone says to Mon Mothma “They [meaning the Empire] don’t even bother to lie badly anymore.” Mon replies “I suppose that’s the final humiliation.”

This one is resonating today. #Andor

Instead of whatever this is, we should have a government getting lots of new homes and apartments built, lots of clean energy built, lots of high speed rail and transit and bike lanes built, human rights for everyone, economic & healthcare opportunities for all, & innovation that leads the world.

I hope you don't mind me sharing this again I know it's been a year but they've reopened my fundraiser for the anniversary

fwiw, I think the best way to think of this is not really as "trump is the worst ever" so much as "trump takes all the worst aspects of american history and speed runs them all at once"

Their Halloween show is pretty amazing as well!

Larian's CEO says they "don't see it as a replacement for developers". How?? If you're using AI to generate ANY artwork, even internally, that's replacing human labour. You can't claim to not be replacing anyone when you're using a tool that's literally doing the work of an artist. Gross.

And if those kids grew up and continued to use the moniker as adults, would it be super weird for them to still use the 'petites'? Could they use it ironically/tongue in cheek? Or would another word apply?

This has been hugely helpful by the way, thank you.

Chenapans, if feminine, is also fairly fitting, since the characters in question all meet in a women's boarding school when they're quite young.

Ohhhh, I LOVE Canailles. What's the 'the' for it? Les? Les Canailles?

Do I know anyone here who speaks French?

I'm looking for an old fashioned, colloquial word or phrase that translates to "troublemakers". Something you'd call a group of schoolgirls that are very clever about pulling pranks. Along the lines of rascals, scamps, misfits, etc.

Thank you!

A few weeks ago, I started a part time contract with the Pokemon Company International as a game writer! Feeling so, so grateful to have a part time gig working on exciting stuff as I dip my toes back into working postpartum.

So now Pikachu pays 100 percent of our household bills, what a good guy!

Credits for Brent Porter (3D art lead) and Catherine Menabde (2D art lead) are shown here. There's a lengthy description of what they did, with a pastiche of various Demonschool characters underneath, messing around with a computer.

We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

This is my go to now for people who ask. It's well organized, covers everything I would, and Craig keeps it updated. It makes it super easy to give to parents, random peeps who ask me in lines, and students who show up to my stream.

Huge thanks to Craig for doing the work.

I might be using the "sing with Artemis" camp feature in Hades II to lull my baby to sleep right now, which was obviously its intended use.

screenshot from Everything Everywhere All At Once - he is saying "When I choose to see the good side of things, I'm not being naive. It is strategic and necessary. It's how I've learned to survive through everything."

your daily reminder that hope is a floatation device- grab it with both hands 🖤

Penelo emerging from her fleecy mountain to play tug with the unseeable tiny dog

Heidi has been an incredibly kind, hilarious, wonderful person who supported me from the beginning. I wouldn't wish what's happening to her on anyone, but that it is happening to her is cosmically unjust.

Please help ease her burden. If you have anything to spare, she deserves it. Truly.

Stop pretending everything they do is a brilliant gambit. Stop acting like every ridiculous move they make is going to pay off for them.

STOP RESPECTING THEM THIS MUCH!

They are drunk toddlers with guns, of course they are dangerous. To everyone, including each other and themselves.
