Somebody asked me on Reddit why people who use AI to generate Recomp projects are currently being rejected from the communities and what they can do to fix this. I might tweak parts of this to be a more general blog post at some point, but this should be of help to anyone in a similar situation.

30 ROCK is an unlimited source of perfect jokes, but perhaps because the show reached peak popularity while I was in grad school, I've always been partial to this one

The Dem-fiend is a favourite design of mine; the simple fashion, the cool tattoos, and those great shoes... the hairdo less so. ✂️ So imagine my excitement when I'd be vindicated decades later by SMT artist Kazuma Kaneko revealing he based it on Josh Hartnett's infamous look from 'The Faculty'.

I don't even know what to say. This is real, this is true, so, like, thank you all, from the bottom of my heart. This took over 25 years to happen so if there's any lesson here it's either "keep at it, who knows" or "many people are divorced"

This Film often has the piss taken out of it for being a rather sedentary piece about 2 people just talking a lot — BUT — it has one of the most brilliantly prescient monologues in the history of Movies imho. MY DINNER WITH ANDRE (1981) Have a listen.
