I have never used LLM tech to do my work, creative or otherwise, and I never will. It skeeves me out. Are we human? Or are we prompters.

If you're part of the BioWare or Sims community and want to talk about how those studios' queer characters and themes have impacted you and your fears for those series moving forward after this sale, I'd love to chat with you for a Kotaku story. Can be reached here or email kshepard@kotaku.com

Some "alpha" mouth breather: You won't pull any women looking and acting like you do, bro. Me: Two things. One, I'm not your bro. You have no idea what brotherhood actually means. Two, my wife thinks I'm hot through and through. She's done so for nearly 26 years. I'm good. Go away, now.

Fae: “Tell us your true name.” Me: “…Just my name? No birthdate, no SSN, no fingerprint scan, no address, no mother’s maiden name? Are you sure you’ve even got the right Olivia Waite? There’s like six.” Fae: “What the hell kind of bargains have you been making?” Me: “They call it health insurance.”

Dear young artist/crafter: Your work not being seen as a "real job" is an ongoing effect of capitalism, and misogyny. The people telling you to get a real job will never value what you do, even when they need it. Know your worth, and never give them an inch.

Curiosity got me, so I went to see if the Jeopardy host, I dunno... apologized or anything for the joke that went over like a lead balloon. No, of course not, don't be silly. But he did post a response to the headlines to confirm he's not transphobic. Which... just delete the shitty joke, y'know?
