we aren't in a "fanfic recession" but that someone decided to use these terms to complain reveals the real problem; a lot of 'fans' are thinking like shareholders and executives, devaluing creative work, refusing to support the artists they have, and looking at everything with the lens of profit
heard a guy say "you have to access it through the portal" and i was momentarily struck by how sad it is that what he said is so boring :( "accessing it via the portal" should be wonderful. we deserve that at least. it should be cool to access it via the portal and instead it sucks shit
First draft is for telling yourself the story, revisions are for telling your readers the story.
any advice from writers for when you desperately need to start writing something but you can't because you're terrified of it being terrible
everyone please stop calling ai glasses the "pervert glasses". this is appropriation of swirly glasses from pervert scientist women

sigh
NEW: I spoke to Larian boss Swen Vincke about their ambitions for their new RPG Divinity, cutting down development time, pressures from Baldur's Gate 3, why BG3 wouldn't have happened without Tencent, how Larian uses generative AI, and much more www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...
The pushback on this use of AI by Larian needs to be loud, immediate and unrelenting. You don’t get to coast on BG3 goodwill indefinitely.
“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to
We continue to make progress in the production of our zine and merch! Have a peak at the first little batch all made up! I'm planning to make a tumblr post detailing a bit of the process soon, so be sure to watch for that if you're interested.
