I wish more publications would get behind No Games For Genocide; or at least mention in a passing note in articles about the company's gaming business that Microsoft is providing software and logistical support for an ongoing genocide.

We need to stop accepting views expressed on Twitter as real opinions. The sooner everyone assumes that the median post on that website is done in bad faith and principally designed to chase clout, the sooner we stop letting these fake controversies take up all the oxygen in the room.

my biggest pet peeve around LLMs is when people (usually those invested in its success) call it “intelligent”. it definitionally, how it functions on a base level, is not intelligent. the way LLMs are built, it can never hit real intelligence. it’s just predictive

BLUESKY IS A WEBSITE THAT TURNS (post by jay.bsky.team claiming that bluesky is made with AI) INTO (picture of bluesky not working)
sky full of stars #projecthailmary
I like bluesky because it feels so much like tumblr
1. barely works
2. userbase is annoying (affectionate)(not that affectionate)
3. being queer on here feels like I’m actively participating in ruining some tech company’s investment
Turns out the thing that will do in bluesky isn't that it's a "leftist echo chamber" or anything like that but the fact that it just doesn't fuckin work
I think artists should be able to make a decent living without living in one of the three designated "this is where you live if you want to be an artist" cities

Illustration of two mechs, the BX-721 "Desperado" and RD-111 "Corvus" standing back-to-back. Their builds are similar, as they're both based on the same technology - they're slim and lithe, with angular, birdlike faces. The two are sworn enemies, but posing them together is fun.
Illustration of the MX-000 "Margrave," an imposing mech with ten arms. It is colored a stark white, black, and red, with turquoise beam emitters in each palm that crackle with energy. Beside it is a short background of its creation: "Developed by the Reingardt Institute with the blessing of House Lisianthus, the MX-000 “Margrave” is Au Galida’s last chance to reconquer the Ingram Union. It fights using ten palm-mounted emitters that produce beams of strange energy. Exposure to this energy has been known to cause adverse psychological effects."
Illustration of Lady Liatris's BX-888α "Monarca Absoluta" in flight. True to her namesake, Liatris's mech is purple and lavender, with a large armored booster cowl that allows it to fly. It fires a gatling gun from its wrist to intercept incoming projectiles while launching a salvo of its own shoulder-mounted missiles.
Illustration of Mother and Father, the heads of the Reingardt Institute. They wear black and gray robes that cover their whole bodies, crowned with ornate golden masks. Their masked faces resemble the heads of Dragoons, with angular beaks and thin eyes. Beside them is a short history of the Institute: From the ashes of the Petal War rose the Reingardt Institute: a secretive cabal of alchemists and machinists led by two towering, masked entities known only as Mother and Father. They wear the robes of the Consorts, those detestable occultists whose avarice destroyed the old Republic. At present they are sheltered by Duke Lisianthus, who insists that they alone have the knowledge needed to reclaim the Republic’s lost glory. Their obsession is singular: a new, perfect Dragoon, coursing with supernatural power: the MX-000 “Margrave.”

The character/s vs how you drew them
V'ul hugging Voxer while he has collapsed to his knees in living memory.
Built up some rust since I last drew, started working through it during stream by sketching V'ul and Voxer during their time in living memory.
