If you stream, you may wanna toggle this off. Not that it probably matters cos these cunts will train their fascist machine regardless. But figured you'd like to know, at least.

don't blame this on autism when it's the result of being raised in an age of Puritan online content moderation that has conditioned your developing brain to think that any exposed skin is inherently sexual it's giving "i have the autism that makes me hate women" you have to DEPROGRAM that nonsense

a comment on Fields of Mistria that reads "YES dude. pls pls pls make a SFW mod for Juniper too. I love this game so much by my autism makes me feel so uncomfortable about her sprites, and they don't reall make sense with the otherwise wholesome tone of the game. seems like i'm in the minority for thinking that, but would be awesome if the devs made a "sex sexualized sprites" toggle, or if there was a mod that did that.

if news outlets were really interested in fact-based reporting theyd refuse to use the term “biological sex” and every time it appears in a quote theyd note actual biologists consider the term meaningless and anti-trans attempts to write it into law as fundamentally anti-science

Sheryl Weikal says Prosecute ICE@leftistlawyer.com · 2d ago

Dear cis people, Please, for the love of G-d, stop using the terms "biological male" and "biological female." They're scientifically meaningless. Sex is a bimodal cluster categorization. The brain is biological, no? There is no one factor that's universally determinative of sex and gender.

My boss, to his credit, argued over and over with the c-level who pushed the AI — “we already have Stella and she’s funny and she’s good at this, she’s done live games before so live ops are no problem,” etc — but the suit insisted “gamers love new tech” so using AI would be “great marketing”

This goes for #indiettrpgs too, please! So many people tell me they love my games, and I really appreciate that. But games like mine survive on you telling OTHER people you love them! Writing reviews, sharing with your friends, making fan art or just getting together and playing with people!

Casey Explosion@caseyexplosion.bsky.social · 3d ago

"Indies will save us" No! YOU WILL SAVE INDIES! Go leave a review for that neat indie game you like, share the trailer for an upcoming game you're anticipating, tell your fave developer they did a good job, go tell people about such and such game that's just come out, you can make a difference!

I painted myself and my gf's mermaid oc together in the moonlight. I've had this peice's idea in my head since before we made things official. I spent like 2 months of it sporartically.

a mermaid with purple hair has her chin tilted up to face a fae with dragonic horns and tail. Both smiling at each other faces close. The mermaid sits proppedup out of the water on a stone surface. In the background is a small woods and a crumbling stone wall, the moon shining through a misty cloud overhead. Both are in swimwear. It's also at night, a dark lighting with purple light over silver backlightingthe same peice but without the dark overlay giving it a still shaded but brighter appearence

So I'm just going to put this out there Cringe is like how weird or nerdy used to be. It can be changed and turned to something all right but as of right now? It's societal pressure used to exert control on others. Fuck that shit. You fee; cringe about something? That's not their issue. It's yours

artists when they're insecure and 14 years old: you HAVE to do art the right way by learning FUNDAMENTALS! u can't have fun or stylize until u learn EVERYTHING! artists when they realize not everyone needs to be a goddamn professional chasing infinite growth: if you don't use AI you already win :)

My recommendation: look for a ? or ! or something in URLs, and delete the text after them, one block at a time, until the URL doesn't work any more. Then add back only the last part you removed, and send that. Once you've tried it a few times, you start identifying what parts of the URL are what

this is actually a good reminder that you should delete the tracking nonsense off of any url that you share online. just delete everything after the ? (including the question mark) and share like you usually would

Well this is thoroughly disturbing, and yet somehow unsurprising given everything we're accustomed to hearing in the UK at the moment

A World-Leading Model for Digital Racism In September 2021, in my last miserable day of a miserable job, I wrote a blog post in my professional capacity about a meeting I had attended with a group of age verification software vendors. As I wrote, these lobbyists—well funded, well connected, and working at the heart of Parliament—were campaigning to have the then-Online Safety Bill's age verification measures expanded to require nationality checks. Imagine having to prove your nationality through a passport or national identity card as part of today's mandatory age verification checks, and you get a sense of how the lobbyists wanted the Great British Internet to work. The meeting's attendees, all affluent white English elites, worked hard to build a rationale for why nationality checks as a condition for access to information and interaction made perfect sense. The naked opportunism on display as they glibly touted their wares as a means to identify, segregate, and suppress was unforgettable. The Online Safety Act provided policy experiences that no amount of training could prepare you for.

It can’t be stressed enough: it was the explicit goal of some a/v vendors to use their products, marketed for child safety, to also identify racial and ethnic minorities and surveil their use of public resources. Lowe funding an a/v vendor speaks volumes. internet.exchangepoint.tech/the-dog-that...
