If you use generative AI, you are not a writer or artist.

Pass it on.

I think the ghost of Tolkien should rise up and choke the fuck out of all these gormless techbro fascists who keep using his lengendarium's names for their oppression machines, Army of Dunharrow style.

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

i still like this one 🌊🎨

Again We Meet: The Princess of the Underworld and the Titan of Foresight, by Jen Zee

Thank you for the amazing response to HADES II on Xbox and PlayStation!🌖🙏

We hope you enjoy meeting all our gods, ghosts, and monsters from Greek myth... such as fire-thief Prometheus, voiced by the one and only @benstarr.bsky.social and featured in this new piece by @0jenzee0.bsky.social!

Both are up for investigation as suspects at this time, so the cookout will be missing both of their attendance at this present time.

THE CORN IS A FINALIST!!! #FFXIV

Oh, and a tree.

Yes, a singular tree.

Listen, I haven't been this theory-crazed invested since the days of VLD where I wrote over, by hand, what Keith's stickie notes said across that entire board, and by gods I will do it all again for this game. I have ALREADY zoomed in on the stickie notes.

Me, trying to talk about Equinox: Homecoming with friends who both do and don't play and the 4 documents all set to cover an entire transcription of the game's script thus far all because of...

Rocks.

Digital illustration of a knight on horseback. The knight is pale, has a unicorn horn on his forehead, and he is wielding a blue sword and shield. His horse is a pale ghastly figure.

Wish people could just learn it's OK to not like stuff and simultaneously leave it alone. The internet gave everyone main character syndrome and an unearned perception of importance.

"Generative AI" is not what you think it is YouTube video by Acerola

Sharing this video because I still see a lot of misunderstanding about what Gen-AI involves & people mistakenly conflating AI with other none Gen-AI algorithms

This confusion is by design to obfuscate the unimaginable amounts of waste, damage, & theft this technology is actively responsible for

Astronauts Christina Koch, Jeremy Hansen, Reid Wiseman, and Victor Glover in a floating group hug inside the Orion spacecraft during the return trip home. The US and Canada flags are visible tacked up in the background.

This is my favorite Artemis II photo.

Wuk Lamat actually *subverts* shonen tropes by being that type of a character as a female who is strong but not over-sexualized. The Final Fantasy community (and gaming at large) has a problem with misogyny. They can't give Wuk Lamat the Tifa treatment, so they hate her.

A picture of a waterbottle with a sticker on it. The sticker shows a knights helmet surrounded by orange lilies with a shield in black and white that says: Whilst thou fucketh off

There's no way to take a good picture of this bcs of reflections but one of my old stickers peeled off my waterbottle and now I finally have some space for one of my personal faves.

Keep in mind that for the moment this is only listed for the ps3 copy of DAI, and for whatever reason at one point it wasnt listed on the UK version of the site that announces closures.

That might have changed- someone from the uk will have to look. Scroll to D 🫡: www.ea.com/legal/servic...

Fun fact: everyone you love is in this photo!! You can't see them, but they're there and I think that's pretty fucking magical!

Aaron's willingness to take my direction of "give me orc, but it's okay if it's sexy" will never go unappreciated.

TrueRef: Just the reference you were looking for.

Digital painting of a bathhouse scene. There are four men in the illustration, two of them sitting by the pool's edge, and one is half submerged. All three of them are looking up at an angel. In the background, there is a faint view of the cityscape, and tall arched columns. There are also birds flying across the room.

Someone with the handle @velocity69.bsky.social is sharing a video with the caption:

"The highest quality video of the moon was just released…
so beautiful

* Artemis II"

It's gone viral, but it's not from Artemis II. If you've shared it, you might want to un-share.

ELF LEVEL INCREASED.

What this also means:
We should be grateful for our atmosphere

NASA just dropped this image of Artemis II astronaut Christina Koch looking back at us. The first woman to ever see our planet in its entirety. I’m not crying you’re crying 🥹🔭🧪 📸: NASA

Keep going. Save yourself.

A full disc image of Earth, as seen from the Orion Crew Module. The planet is a pale blue, swirling with white clouds and glowing slightly lighter blue in place from reflected light. At lower left, a large brown landmass is Africa, with Spain and Portugal with twinkling lights where the planet curves. At top right, auroras glow in a thin green glow, just barely separated from the planet's surface. Earth is set against the black of space (pic: NASA/R.Wiseman)

More context on this #Artemis II image:

* This is the night side, lit by moonlight. You can see city lights in Spain & Portugal, & a sliver of day at lower right

* The Sun is entirely behind Earth, which makes it a kind of solar eclipse, but w/ Earth doing the eclipsing instead of the Moon:
☀️🌍🚀🌕

That's home. That's us.

This image of home just came down from the Artemis II crew.

Taken after their translunar injection burn, there are aurorae at top right and lower left, and zodiacal light at lower right.
