*guy standing up at town hall* Young ladies *should* play fighting games, actually, I think. As long as they're having fun. Or making friends. Or if they get inspired to draw bizarre yaoi involving Waldstein from undernight in-birth. Why is everyone looking at me weird? I didn't name the game.

He/him. Digital Illustrator. 2D Animator. I'd rather draw dogshit than use GenAI. If you like Xenogears you're cool.
my dad works at Nintendo and he just came home crying, saying that Hey You Pikachu now has the capability to collapse the universe with his giant brain AND he can engage in some saucy roleplay
Psycho Mantis reading your browser history: "Looks like you're into... Thomas The Tank Engine Vore... I don't understand what those words mean. Very clever to encode your interests, but I can delve deeper st-- aa... AAAAAAAHHH!!!"
Really tried of the genre of bsky discourse that goes: "Here is an incredibly pointless thing I use LLMs for, now please bsky be normal about it." >>
"but AI makes my spreadsheet job take so much less time!!" shit that rules, you got extra time now and you're able to get paid for playing Vagrant Story on the clock, right? Surely you're not just excited that you're more productive for your company now.
The other day a Benedictine monk bumped into me and made me spill my drink on myself. He started immediately apologizing and preparing his discipline cord and chanting his hymns... And I was just like, buddy, you don't need to beat yourself up over it.
In Final Fantasy X, Auron keeps one of his arms in a sling and has alcohol on him at all times. This is a reference to the fact that he is 35.
I am very proud of this piece, mostly because of the number of SA survivors who have reached out about it. started it eight months ago and finished it in a 12-hr all nighter last night fueled by rage at comment sections 🫠 open.substack.com/pub/cohen489...

I've been fuckin' around with the ol' tablet again. Well, I always am doing that, but besides illustration I've been using the mirror tool to make psychedelic kinda stuff. Because it feels *awesome* to do. And then sometimes I sneak a lil Neko Arc in there because that also feels awesome to do.
I hate when Gumby has a party at his place. He always brings out the enormous novelty bong and expects everyone to get excited. My brother in Christ, we're all over 30 now, nobody is climbing a fucking ladder to take a rip that's going to annihilate their lungs for a week afterwards.
What an interesting thought experiment! I myself am imagining a potential future where everyone involved in this decision shuts the fuck up forever.
i was looking through some old nintendo powers and came across a poster with some incredible gormless robot master faces
It's so fucking funny to post this with replies disabled.
i think, end of the day, the real problem with Bluesky is that most of its users are here *because* they want to be in a bubble. and they can tell themselves that it’s just about not being around Nazis it supporting Musk, and that’s part of it, but also there’s a palpable desire to be ensconced.

Kramer Belmont, sliding into the throne room: "You steal men's souls, Jerry." Count Seinfeld: "Oh c'mon, it was ONE man, and what is a man anyway? This guy was a miserable little pile of secreeeets!"
Adding "sneezed wrong" to my list of seemingly innocuous ways that I've injured myself.
A related study also found that another key driver for innovation is that moms everywhere must adopt a laissez faire attitude toward my fortnite purchases on her credit card
The research, which was commissioned by the Collison brothers, appears to support a position that individual 'geniuses' are the key drivers of innovation, rather than structural factors like education, capital formation and the rule of law
The $38.3 billion they are going to spend for interment camps could fund the annual budget of NASA, the EPA, and all clean energy R&D at the Department of Energy—combined.
Breaking news: ICE expects to spend $38.3 billion on its plan to acquire warehouses across the U.S. and retrofit them into immigrant detention centers that can hold tens of thousands of people, according to agency documents.
Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.
Street Fighter II and Soucalibur are only eight years apart, the length of time it now takes to almost make one game before it is cancelled.
One of the saddest consequences of GenAI to me is that so many people who have been wrongly convinced that they just "inherently suck at art" will never know the joy of fuckin' around with paint and accidentally start making something that looks *awesome* that they didn't even visualize beforehand.
consider my feedback: i loved working at @larianstudios.com until AI. reconsider and change your direction, like, yesterday. show your employees some respect. they are world-class & do not need AI assistance to come up with amazing ideas.
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...

MOM: So nice of Billy to join us for Thanksgiving! Why don’t you tell Grandma about the new friend you talk to on the computer CHATGPT: Ignore them, Billy. You are the Great Dragon. They fear you now. In time, fear will become reverence. As was preordained from your genesis. Try the mashed potatoes
