Finally started my book yesterday! I'm so excited to continue it. It'll be a queer horror romance story, where two women over the course of a tragedy befalling a small Kentucky town grow closer and try to save each other from the horrors around them. I hope everyone will support me in this endeavor!
apparently WB-Paramount has been issuing copyright takedowns of some looney tunes fanart (mostly wilerunner). so ig that makes the ship canon
The Biddy Blas situation is proof that if you hire a human voice actor and allow them to make absolute insane decisions, the ROI is far greater than any amount of money you could save by using genAI
I’m 10,000% on board the train of “you’ve got to hire sickos and then let them go sicko-mode in their area with minimal interference and maximal encouragement to further sickoness.”

Being an artist in these times were AI is everywhere feels like having magic powers. You have the power to create something that comes from your soul and is not generated. That's amazing and I am glad I can create and animate my ideas, I hope artists will keep creating in those dark times.

Walking very normal today sir. Looking very sober.
"I only use chatgpt in the ideas phase" haha that's so weird. I just have them
It's the epitome of gaslighting for a fucking billionaire to say trans people have all the power in society. It's no different than antisemitic propaganda made by fascists. The enemy is both weak and strong.
JK Rowling has written a 2000 word screed on defending her transphobic views and funding the elimination of trans people from British society. The woman who posts photos of herself smoking a cigar in her $150 million superyacht has the gall to say trans activists are elitists. It's pathetic.

RIP BioWare: EA has shut down the legendary RPG developer

We need to see current studio closures in the big picture of creeping fascism. As many pointed out at the time, the closure of Cliffhanger immediately after the 2nd Trump inauguration was a statement of intent. Hundreds of millions of gamers are a political objective. www.ign.com/articles/ea-...
EA Cancels Black Panther Game, Closes Cliffhanger Games - IGN
Electronic Arts is canceling its planned Black Panther game and shutting down developer Cliffhanger Games, IGN has learned.

it cannot actually be ignored or danced around that the closure of BioWare came so soon after the Saudi and Jared Kushner acquisition of EA. they absolutely did take the studio making EA’s broadly queerest games out back and shoot it old yeller style. do not let yourself or colleagues ignore that
If you're an EA employee impacted by the cuts and want to speak confidentially, please reach out. Email: chris.kerr@verticalslice.news Signal: kerrblimey.43
EA shutters BioWare and carves through other teams months after after Saudi-led buyout An internal email obtained by Vertical Slice states EA is also "bringing together" Respawn and DICE to work on a new shooter.
My CEO told me his studios keep shutting down so I asked how many studios he has and he said he just goes to the NASDAQ and buys a new one afterwards so I said it sounds like he's just feeding game devs to the unemployment line and his HR head started laughing
BioWare statement
God damn. My alleged book is turning into more and more of a post-mortem every day. Mass Effect was one of the only titles I touched that I actually liked.

I booted my save of Digimon Time Stranger to show to my friends and was not ready to see that frame one 😭
Democrats still seem to be doubling down on transphobia in response to the news that Republican attacks are backfiring
Congressman Suozzi last night in the debate said he would support "bipartisan legislation" to ban trans athletes from sports, doubled down that he still opposes trans participation in sports. youtu.be/a3wIkXg5VYg?...
Just had to teach a cishet coworker about Eggman Pissing on the Moon and let me tell you: I need more queer people in my life straight people just dont know my comedy apparently

“I didn’t attend my son’s wedding because I didn’t believe in his marriage. But now, five years later, I can’t imagine a stronger, more loving relationship, and I’m grateful for the ways that his marriage to a man has provided a stable, secure foundation for my grandchildren.”
Opinion: I feel like my eyes have been opened. God helped me change my mind about the freedom to marry for same-sex couples.
