Okay, so cards on the table, I follow some people that could be...less than appropriate to anyone under 18
So to give myself a safety net in case my replies can be seen and lead to such people, I applied the 🔞 to my username
Unfortunately this means minors following me will be blocked, sorry
Every year transphobes say the wave of detransitions will begin any day now, and every year the number of detransitioners who will work with them, worldwide, remains in the low to mid countable-on-one-hand
We had an interaction, probably in 2019, where I just wanted to know what evidence he'd need to accept that detransition actually was rare, and it became clear that there was none. He's ideologically invested in something having gone wrong with trans care and will accept no evidence to the contrary.
I'm telling you dude it's the age of loser dipshits. This whole tech sector, from the chatbots to the art generation to the voices, is built on this idea that being good at stuff is stupid and lame and somehow by not getting to enjoy the same praise skilled people do you are being denied or slighted
The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot
A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead:

Wow, the exact sort of “liberals” Jessie is talking about are absolutely frothing at the mouth about this thread.
Hit dogs hollering all over Bluesky today.
"Spider-Man: Brand New Day made Jean Grey into a villain!"
...as opposed to Fox haphazardly retconning Jean Grey into a villain who only seemed heroic in her prior appearances because Professor X repressed the darker aspects of her personality?
This is another reason why AI losers have gotten into retro decomp/recomp projects. Nobody wants to play AI slop games, so they have to reinforce the value of AI by producing something desirable, which in this case is just repackaging the work of actual talented people.
just wanted to share something i discovered
the amount of games released in 2022 compared to this year has increased by 77%. I use 2022 because that marks the last year before AI really took over the internet
whats crazy to me is that the amount of games with ZERO REVIEWS has ALMOST TRIPLED. ZERO?
Both sides are right here.
Nikki isn't a real person, its not "morally wrong".
but it really does cheapen the message of the movie and go against it.
Fortnite takes from movies and other games, and turns their meaningful characters into cheap commodified symbols to be consumed mindlessly.

Kingdom Hearts: Explains plot point in straight forward words & detail
YouTuber: "BUT WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?! THIS IS SO CONFUSING! This must mean it's badly written."
I swear, some people are incapable of just listening. And blame their stupidity on everything except themselves.
I am already tired of the Hellaverse fandom stuff.
Yall would write the most BORING story. No interesting characters. No drama. Nothing to sink our teeth into.
No character growth. No bad choices. Everything would be so perfect and fixed right away...
Don't become writers. Like ever.
"how do I make this animation smoother?"
everyone for some reason: "you need more frames!"
More frames is a lie made up by Big Animation to sell more timeline space
Dear Michigan, don’t buy Islamophobic BS DJT is pushing, many of you are better than that and the ones who aren’t have been dumbed down by generations of GOP pols that took away your industry to enrich billionaires in boardrooms & gave you Kid Rock & cracker ass culture instead.
the "try not to hold modern entries over the first game in the series" challenge still seems to be impossible
dmc as it is now only got to where it is with dmc 3 and then 4 and 5 added onto that
dmc 1 isn't a combo fantasy
but a unique action game and for what it is, it's a pretty good game imo
Tim Sweeny deciding to challenge Valve. Valve never even acknowledge his existence and still wins.
Then Tim going full psychosis betting it all on AI risking ruinning his company for good when he already had industry standard products that kept it afload is something to be studied in the future.
"We vibe coded a new Epic Games Launcher" because "programming is hard", announce company we're somehow supposed to see as a serious Steam competitor https://bit.ly/4hMHbi5

Greg Baldwin, the voice of Uncle Iroh, responds to a post criticizing LGBTQ+ and disabled representation in ‘Avatar’:
“So sorry LGBTQ and disabled people exist. That must be traumatic for you.”
Something I shared in the Art Tips channel of my Discord server that seemed to resonate with folks. I hate to see people making an active choice to NOT create for fear of being derivative.
Ya gotta do it anyway.
I genuinely like to believe that the vast majority of Americans are good, honest people.
It's just that the country's politics is so radioactive that we literally have no other choices but to take it all in, and then get dragged into it.
I just want everyone to remember that Tim Sweeney is the idiot you give money every time you support Epic and their money making machine of Fortnite.
This company is trying to go bankrupt at this point so please just let them and move on.
When you trying to talk about an obscure piece of media you love on a public platform only to end up with replies where a majority of people only bring up a single memetic scene instead of any actual meaningful discussions.
A Trump supporter punched a protester wearing a “Release the Epstein Files” shirt in the face at Trump’s rally in Youngstown, OH. According to Mediaite, police removed the protester while the attacker stayed and “high-fived other attendees”. This is disgraceful and sums up the entire MAGA movement.
Trump: "The Republican Party, we believe that Somalia bandits, third-world gangs, and jihadist sympathizers do not belong in Ohio, they do not belong in America. We got to get them the hell out of here."
More "De-port! De-port!" chants from the crowd.
139. Saw a post making fun of people who call it "copaganda" to draw porn of Judy Hopps and it reminded me that I feel like alot of y'all on here connect the dots where they don't exist in regards to stuff like art and fiction because it's easier than real activism.
"So what can I do about it?" Idk honestly, just quietly unfollow the artist. People get shocked east asia internet isnt that aware of lgbtq but it is the truth. Even the kind people just dont know. Maybe Im too cynical maybe Im too defeatist, but people just dont know about transgender.
