The ultra-wealthy keep trying to pit the rest of us against each other with scare tactics ("communists!" "men in the ladies room!!" "brown people!!!" "drag queens!!!!") to keep us from noticing that our real problem is THEM. They want us to fight *any* war—except a class war. Happy Labor Day.
Getting a bit tired of very rich actors and directors saying ‘AI is here we have to learn how to use it’ instead of ‘I am wealthy enough to dedicate myself only to projects which employ talented human beings because anything else is an existential threat to human storytelling’
Dolly Parton: Be kind to people. I believe in you! Tim Curry: Be yourself and if that pisses off bad people, you're doing great.
Glad to know that Twitch doesn't actually give a fuck about what its creatives want and don't want... Anyway, go to Settings, Security & Privacy, then scroll down until you see the Training for Generative AI option to disable it.

i think it's incredibly sad if you "can't get through a work day without it". why did you ruin your brain on purpose?
I don’t want to be too sensationalist about this but also I’m the least violent person in the world and I think if someone said this to my face I’d hit them
Dr. Jeroen W.P. Wijnendaele@drdragases.bsky.social · last mo.No longer content with pillaging intellectual work and dismembering our environment (already critically weakened), AI companies are now hellbent on destroying books galore including rare editions. Shut down these nefarious enterprises already.
“You don’t have to play the other games to enjoy Mermaid Mask.” Is a true statement. But you do have to play the other games if you want to get really really mentally ill about it.
I liked Tangle Tower a lot but man, The Mermaid Mask is a perfect adventure game. I was charmed by every moment with its characters and compelled by every step of the mystery. And the climax it builds to is incredibly striking and just the right amount of eerie. Damn good game.
Caine is still the same wacky little guy, just while carrying his enthusiasm in a more conscientious way. Let this be my final word about this. Signed, his very autistic voice actor who fucking hates masking.
seen a lot of webcomic and personal sites using imgur to host extra images for some reason - imgur is completely blocked in the uk! your sites are full of massive "YOU CANT ACCESS THIS CONTENT IN YOUR REGION" banners! please upload any extra layout images locally!!!

What the fuck is it good for? Im asking sincerely. Medical people say its shit for diagnosing, its utter garbage for creative fields, it cannot teach and hallucinates false answers, programmers have to fix its code half the time, businesses find it doesn't help productivity and it causes psychosis.

"Why do innocent people flee the police?" Idk, maybe the fact that they kill newborn babies and puppies might have something to do with it. Just saying.
Money sucks, I hate money, I need money, I don't understand money, I'm making one continuous mistake, money is stupid, money MAKES you stupid, the only people who know how to do money right are fuckin miserable
...and ftr: i'm tired of "frightened cops." if the defense is that "you were scared" then turn in your badge in and go be an accountant. mail/delivery people run into unfriendly dogs daily/hourly. not once has a ups/usps/prime driver ever had to shoot one.

this sucks. nashville zoo is one of the most modern, humane, and accessible zoos in the country. if you care about conservation, critters, and science, go sign and go raise hell. nash zoo is also a bastion of science and equality as a southern workplace. please please protect it.

being able to navigate the internet with the ability to avoid things that you don't want to see is seriously something I whole hearted endorse. we need it in all spaces 🥰
one of the worst things abt the internet to me is pretending that being a hater is cute and not the most insanely annoying shit one could be. Everyone just decided to be really mean and then pass it off as cute and bubbly
The Mermaid Mask - our new mystery detective adventure game (and the follow-up to 2019's Tangle Tower) launches July 16 for PC, PS5, Switch and Switch 2
I think we’re long past the “ai bad because of stealing” argument and fully in the “ai is also actively and tangibly destroying our planet why are you even trying to use it as an art tool at this point” stage
Went to an anti AI datacentre protest march today and a friend of mine got a picture that summed it all up
Reminder that supporting an artist and an indie project is only so that artist can survive while they create their project since otherwise it would be impossible to that project to be made. It doesn't and never didn't mean that you have power on what the artist does with their OWN project.
The worst part is, most of the people that do this kind of shit won’t face consequences, either because they’re relatively obscure in the online landscape or everyone is too apathetic to do anything about it. Where did people’s empathy go? Since when did we get so mean?
