This weekend I’m running a #DnD encounter with a COLOSSAL enemy. It’ll feature experimental homebrew of my own make that uses separate initiatives for each limb & battle maps for the body of the beast itself. Aiming for a #ShadowoftheColossus scale & vibe—hope it plays well! #tabletop #gaming #RPG

Anyone else going as Pumpkin Hill from Sonic Adventure 2 for Halloween this year or just me? 🎃⛰️ The costume has a treasure hunting minigame where you can move Knuckles across the “level” and the radar necklace will blink as you get closer to the hidden emerald in the pockets 💎 I love Halloween!!

Had to say goodbye to another pet. He lived as a tripod for three additional years after his initial bone cancer diagnosis & treatment (amputation). He was a sweet and friendly boy with a courageous heart & I miss him already. #cat Travel well, Lionel. 💔😿

let me clarify

Skull Issue@amagire.bsky.social

the difference between "republicans win" and "democrats win by explicitly rejecting trans rights and abandoning immigrants" is that there is no difference. over a longer time period than the next five minutes, these things are the same.

well, on the one hand AI has made things significantly worse for everyone in almost every capacity that it has touched. But on the other hand, the dumbest guy you know can send emails nobody reads really fast now. So it's impossible to say whether it's good or not

Can it even navigate worth a damn with this disjointed initiative system? How much damage does getting stomped by a 115 ft tall statue deal? What if you’re hit with a 40 ft long axe? Should there even be an attack roll?! All these questions and more will be answered and/or improvised on the spot!

There's something magical in the fact that Raul Julia did this movie for his kids, and thus, put every single ounce of his talent on display despite LITERALLY DYING. I wanna go out on those terms, I swear to god

“Traditional artists are so cooked lol” 🤪 But please keep making tradition art otherwise we’ll run outta stuff to plagiarize and start auto-cannibalizing our own slop like a ouroboros centipede

The only way I will have any interest in this is if they start the film with Finn waking up, having dreamt the entirety of Rise of Skywalker, and picking back up at the end of The Last Jedi. At breakfast, he laughs with Poe & Rey about the silly dream logic of the Emperor returning somehow.

Jon Watts is set to direct ‘STAR WARS: EPISODE 10’. The film is intended to be the beginning of a new trilogy in the Skywalker Saga. (Source: www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/general...)

This will be an effective deterrent for the overlap of AI shillionaires and people who can read.

‘FORGOTTEN ISLAND’ includes a legal notice in its credits prohibiting the film from being used to train AI models: “This work may not be used to train AI.”

I utterly despise the man and wish he would stop plaguing every waking moment but I also can’t help but be fascinated & amused every time 21st century Hitler FAWNS over the mayor of NYC, someone who by all rational logic, he should openly detest with the heat of a thousand suns. Fucking surreal

Writing "wisdom" I hate: WRITE WHAT YOU KNOW. This is the worst advice ever. It would be better if it was KNOW MORE SO YOU CAN WRITE ABOUT IT. Every good writer I know is constantly researching and getting new information and asking experts. It's a terrible bit of advice!

"i have created the machine that thinks." you fucked up a perfectly good graphics card is what you did. look at it. it's got anxiety

jenny tightpants@jtp.bsky.social

i don't care if the danged chat bots are "thinking." that's not my problem. stop putting them in my computers

I love playing fighters in almost any RPG but I’ve yet to experience the ultimate catharsis: either going out in a blaze of glory or stoically bleeding out after a heroic sacrifice.

As an it/its who would prefer we not use my pronouns as a way to dehumanize AI, may I sugest an alternative: we stop talking about the infernal machines in the third person and break them as God intended
