new hyper-specific image edit just dropped. you should make a fat character and be a little obsessed with them too, it's good for your health

One thing about the whole "you have to read books if you want to be an author" thing is that if you aim to do more than just genre inbreeding, you have to read stuff outside the genre you're writing, too. May even have to read [shudders] nonfiction.

BioWare was not closed because their games were queer, or bad, or rushed, or too ambitious or anything else. They were closed because EA is trying to raise their bottom line by a couple percentage points and that always comes at the expense of the people who's labour is already being exploited.

Most school book bans in a year is not a record we wanted, but we got it. And that's even without counting all the books that were secretly removed in unreported shady under-the-table ways to avoid calling them bans, which I'd assume is also at record levels.

Of all the awful uses of generative ai this is one of the most quietly disgusting. These aren't tributes. They are snuff sympathy cards done by dopamine addicts groping themselves over the clout they can squeeze out of a tragedy. I'm furious when I see these. Can't imagine how their peers feel.
