The UK Social Media Ban is absolutely insane No-one argues with the ideology of protecting kids online, but we vehemently disagree on the methodology Putting govt spyware on every device to check ages is an action an authoritarian govt would do, and opens us all to greater digital risks children..

I have no idea what the hell I am, what I am doing, or where I am going. Why do you follow me?! Anyone using/posting genAI content gets an insta-block. Pick up a pencil and learn ya lazy fucks!
I really wish being good at things didn't take so much time and effort, or that the time and effort didn't feel so bad... At least I don't use AI though... Still, wish I didn't struggle as much...

I....I don't know how to feel about this.... I've never BEEN sultry!
Take a screenshot of this GIF, and whichever new word you land on is YOUR word for 2026. Let's. Go.
So the UK government responded to the petition against their MANDATORY digital id. You can guess the response. They may as well say "go pound sand little slave, you can't be free in your own home country". Yeah, this Labour Govt has lost my vote forever, so LibDems better step up with opposition

Almost as if the parents could've and should've been doing this for their kids's internet usage instead of the government putting the "adult doxxing act" into use!! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Welp, I have reached another episode of "what's the point?" in terms of relearning my creative skills. The more genAI progresses the more I struggle getting the motivation to actually learn and not just cheat like the rest of the scum, to become scum myself. #art #motivation #depression
Hey, here is a radical idea. If you don't like a game, don't fucking play it. You'll spend a lot less time being an angry, whiny bitch about it and we'll all spend less time seeing you be a whiny bitch about it. And yes I will also ignore my own advice at some point!

Look at her go!
All creatives of bluesky! How do you beat that CRIPPLING inability to start practising, the sheer weight of a reminder of how good you USED to be, that YOU let yourself lose it?! How do you be creative knowing each and every piece will be a struggle, to claw back, and then still never start?! #art
Right, this is the time of year I skip the internet for a day. Happy 14th of February to those that have it. I will see you all on the 15th.
My gaming hot take. Literally every RPG character creator should, nay, MUST have Oblivion levels of control. Let me make the most beautiful as well as the most ugly. Let me make the most blessed and most heinous! 50 dumbfucks in their basement get angry? Good, fucking let 'em! 1/?

Right, Chrome is being a dicky bitch. Might be time to switch to a new browser. Might have to be firefox or something.
Just finished the story of #GodofWar:Ragnarok. Holy fuck it was so good. This game is a testament to Fatherhood, to Forgiveness, and Family. To Love, Loss and Liberation. It is more than just a game, it's a love letter to the boy in every father, and the man every boy will become.
Happy New Year! I hope you all have a wonderful 2025, full of love, joy, excitement and happiness! I will be doing my very best this year to be kinder to myself, to improve on last year and, most importantly, be a better person overall. And if I can manage to keep some weight off I'll take that too!
Creative people....how do you just get up and do things?! How do you start instead of sitting in a fugue state of potential and actual inadequacy?!
Not gonna lie, I really struggle with watching any award show, but especially the Game Awards. I usually just watch the trailers the day after these days. Like, TGA doesn't get me excited games did well any more, just reminds me of how....Hollywood...the event feels now. I just stopped caring...
5 followers yesterday. Um...thanks? I don't do nothing though so I am not sure why you would?
Okay I have finished Veilguard. I rate it about 7/10-8/10. A decent chunk of it was obviously not made for me, and maybe not made for everyone's consumption. But for those it's intended for it's good to have. The rest of it is fun as hell, feels like a DA ME2 in places.
Now for some positivity, I hope that N7 Day will be good this year. I expect not much in terms of "actual" content, but something with lots of secrets for us to uncover and talk about! #N7Day #MassEffect
I considered keeping my mouth quiet after the election results, being in another nation, but I feel I need to say SOMETHING. To all my friends in the USA, I'm here for you. I will always be here for you. Even when you think you're alone, in spirit, I am here. And I am not going anywhere.
