I don't have any recording sessions for the first time in a while, and I've missed streaming I've also missed the hype about the Vampire Survivors Deckbuilder, but when did that ever stop me?! Anyone fancy a cheeky stream? Join me! www.twitch.tv/satyricorner

It's both fascinating and deeply concerning to me that a senior manager of a major corporation has been in (at time of writing) a seventeen hour crash out, triggered by finding a post made nearly two weeks ago
Spent this afternoon at a board game cafe, where it occurred to me, I've not seen anyone try a fusion of one of my favourite solo board game mechanics (roll & writes) with my beloved roguelike deckbuilders So now I have a working title of Rogue & Write and I need to work out what that means...
This week's Beano jokes about Prime Ministers changing so often, in the same week the Prime Minister changes again This timing is all the more impressive, because they write these strips about six months in advance!

Okay, that's my own mini painted for the #CityOfEspersRPG art jam! Time's starting to run out on getting your entries in, and I'm so excited to see what people make!
Exciting times tonight, I'm seeing Atarashii Gakko! live in London!
the one thing that brings us all together on the site is that we all absolutely fucking hate AI and want it to die forever and I think that's beautiful
Fake coughing tends to give me the hiccups, something that I only know and find specifically inconvenient because I'm a voice actor in a lot of horror.
A woman has to get to New Jersey from Illinois before two men get there from Wisconsin
A couple of farm workers can’t keep a job.
If you use generative AI, alongside 20 other issues, you are massively exposing yourself legally. It’ll take a while for the hammer to fall on all this stuff, but it’s coming. It’s obviously and innevitably coming.
Scoop: The AI music generator Suno was hacked. Hacker shared source code that shows how the tool was made and part of the music and podcasts that were scraped to create it. Decades worth of music, lyrics, and podcasts from YouTube, Deezer, Genius & more www.404media.co/hack-reveals...
My in depth rebuttal to this: No they don't. The "people actually like it" argument is the weakest one AI-stans use, as they wouldn't need endless studies that say they do if people did. Nobody's funding "do people even like chocolate?" studies because fuckin' duh.
Listeners prefer AI voices, claim two studies: They don't like the idea, but after hearing an AI voice they are twice as likely to like it
While we're on the topic of corporate shitweasels funding dodgy research to drive profits at the expense of people, this summer I'm recording the second season of Dakota Gold with @lawofnames.com Series 1 is one of the best things I've ever been a part of, proudly human made and well worth a listen
When a beautiful woman with a thorny problem walks into his office, Cloud City's finest private investigator must decide exactly how much trouble he's willing to get himself into. And how much he'll charge for it. --- Cloud City Sonata, part 1: Duet for Three shorturl.at/pExcN DGM
An utterly worthless article about two utterly worthless studies The first study looks at AI audiobooks vs human narrators, is funded by an AI audiobook company and compares a single narrator vs AI generated multi-cast So the actual conclusion is that people might prefer multi-cast audiobooks
Listeners prefer AI voices, claim two studies: They don't like the idea, but after hearing an AI voice they are twice as likely to like it
Oh, wow, this looks great - I love the original Shaolin Soccer!
Speaking of box-office and things American media isn't paying attention to, the biggest hit in China right now is... ...a "woke reboot" of 'SHAOLIN SOCCER.' Really. Which means ...somebody else figure out what that means 🤣🤷♂️
So you may have noticed I've not streamed in a little over a month Shortly after the last stream, I was declared medically unfit for work, due to worsening depression I've been recovering slowly and there's still more to do, but I'm hoping to be back streaming before August
i will not stand for "larp" becoming the new "poser". there is nothing in this world that requires more genuine unbridled passion in the face of people calling you a total nerd than live-action roleplay
Consodering the actual NJPW involvement, soon Forbidden Door will have to be renamed to 'The Door just across the hallway thats actually always open and is just a normal door' #AEW
One thing I've learned as a cast member for @bloodyfm.bsky.social is that I really struggle to pronounce the words "anomaly" and "anomalous"
"Wes Streeting fears outcomes of actions taken by Wes Streeting"

At first glance I assumed this was a "like Subnautica but-", then saw it was a city builder and became curious, then saw that the narrative is done by Rihanna Pratchett!! Dismissive to checking out the demo in less than a minute, a roller coaster of emotions!
I had a lot of fun playing @lifebelow.net last night. One of the devs hung out for a while and gave me some helpful tips and tricks, and it was a great opportunity to share my experience (as well as make a lil accessibility request)! If you like chill city builders with a twist, check it out! 💖
Always fascinating to see the monkey's paw curl in real time as someone wishes for more attention on their work
The animation chat has me thinking one telling thing - in the years since AI arrived, there's not been a ground-up indie phenomenon, like we saw with earlier tech (Flash, etc). It hasn't unlocked anyone's creativity. For all the anti-gatekeeping rhetroic, nothing anyone cares about has been born.
Nobody loves unmagical Trevor Because the things that he does are inconsistent and dull Look at him now disappearing a cow He didn’t mean to do that it’s just the ai doesn’t have object permanence
