I think the thing the racist prof defenders imply but don't like to admit is there's no benefit to hiring/debating a guy who says mushrooms are created by fae because it's obviously silly but they do think it's worth your time to debate a race science guy because they think he's partially correct

Viewing Carnival of Souls and Messiah of Evil as a double feature really did rewrite my brain chemistry. The pair are so in sync, perfect synergy and ghoulish symphony. Zombie apocalypses as the relentless void where the highway runs out, gas station signs against jet black. Goddamned Americana.
Jayce@jayceb.bsky.social · 2mo agoCarnival of Souls (1962), Herk Harvey Post-war America is a liminal underworld of the dead, Americana the architecture of the damned, and there will always be a woman in trouble. It, whatever “it” may be, will ALWAYS catch up to you. David Lynch was always going to happen, one way or another.
on a more positive note, I like the recent morrowind mod that adds an ancestral ghost who just says how disappointed they are in your choices, no matter what they are www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mo...
Im gonna laugh so hard if we see a wave of solitaire games fast-follow. Like we HAD those! But that casual market died when Casual portals died. But people never really stopped liking card games, just, fell out of fashion. So does this fix that? Does the market exist again?

if smurfs existed and could legally consent you could probably do it. that thing you’re thinking about
This shit is why you can't separate continuing to financially support the Harry Potter IP (whether by buying the games, merch, watching the new TV show when its out) from the consequences of what JK Rowling does with that money She's become so stiflingly powerful that even private docs arent safe
Alejandra Caraballo@esqueer.net · 5d agoI've never seen such an effort to censor a document as I have the Amnesty International report on gender critical groups because of JK Rowling. They removed the report from the Wayback Machine and now I got a DMCA strike on my Google Drive for having it. It was deleted and removed from my account.
oh shit its for real for real fucking DO NOT update your windows, I had to do a clean reinstall

Sean Aitchison@sean8urson.bsky.social · 6d agoI think it’s a really great business model for Microsoft that a windows update can brick my computer Great job, really great way to keep me on as a customer
this sort of reinforces a theory we’ve had on ill conceived where these tech natalist fascists lie about their politics to those they want connections to while being honest about their far right beliefs behind what they think are closed doors so they can gain access to the larger media ecosystem
josh boerman@bosh.worstpossible.world · 5d agoi have gotten in touch with carol queen, who has let me know that she will also be withdrawing from slutcon thanks to its connection with diana fleischman and HDF. we can presumably expect another update here soon
![From Wikipedia:
The purpose of a system is what it does (POSIWID) is a heuristic in systems thinking coined by the British management consultant Stafford Beer,[1] who stated that there is "no point in claiming that the purpose of a system is to do what it constantly fails to do".[2] It is used in systems theory, and is generally invoked to counter the notion that the purpose of a system can or should be read from the intentions of those who design, operate, or promote it. When a system's side effects or unintended consequences reveal that its behaviour is poorly understood, then the POSIWID perspective can balance political understandings of system behaviour with a more straightforwardly descriptive view.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xa4eltdd2z3scndtv4yvb65p/bafkreiem4i55e3gqp6endhcbz2voh2vgqd4y5xdo7bd5qgkrvnz745riby)
Scientists are pointing out that there is no "new normal". As greenhouse gas concentrations and the earth energy imbalance keep increasing, the climate crisis, itself part of a wider environmental crisis, will continue worsening.

alyssa mercante@alyssamerc.bsky.social · last wk.Mark Kern has been “developing” a crowdfunded game for ~10 years. He’s spent most of this time tweeting reactionary bait, histrionic declarations of war, & attacking marginalized folks. He just launched a new game site, seemingly built entirely with AI, saying he needs $3.38M to finish the game.

Okay I looked it up. “weirdo” is a bigoted slur against homosexual folks.
The design for Kurdizov has been very fun so far. I've been developing everything from their logo to their corporate aesthetic to in-world signs and material from them. It has a bit of modern tech culture, a bit of Weyland-Yutani. You'll see a lot more from them in the future!

INLAND EMPIRE - The furnace has long been cold, despite itself. You're too sad to jerk off. This is not the first time this has happened, either. ELECTROCHEMISTRY - Then it is truly over. You are beyond the help of the page-three girl. You are truly doomed.
i cant get the phrase "foul homestuckian tricknology" off my mind cuz of this shit
The more I ponder what Mary said here, I think it is VERY important for those who don't like this EVEN IF YOU DON'T STREAM and want to send a message to Amazon on where the Twitch community falls in the genAI discussion to go in their settings and turn this off. The metrics are what speaks to them.

I also don't have ADHD and have taken the medication for it. It was great fun.
Matt@itsmattagain.bsky.social · 2w agoMan without ADHD tries uppers for the first time: I mean honestly we're scraping the barrel on this now surely. I'm not diabetic. If I took insulin the affects would be far worse.
thinking about the popularity of so many "redraw trends" and plagiarism of compositions by all sorts of artists (it comes up often for gposing but 2D artists do it too). i have to sum up my discomfort with it as follows: it's artists treating other artists the same way A/I treats art as data
