And in her stubbornness, she didn't use the symmetry tool to draw her character's face directly facing the viewer, even though it would've really helped, because she knew it'd just make it look like it was drawn with the symmetry tool

"You Can See Everything" is about how if your eyes are large and wet enough, people will empathize with you against their better judgement.

Your daily reminder that more people are playing and buying PC games than ever before. This is a growing industry. The only reason the industry is struggling is because the people are the top are vacuuming up all the money made to divert it to AI in an unhinged all-in multi-trillion-dollar gamble.

We’ve been talking about this for years. None of these far-right movements are organic.

If nothing else AI is making clear that there are people all around us for whom writing, art, and music are not communion with another mind, but just - wallpaper. Just pleasant things to look at. They think AI is conscious because they have no actual grasp of what it is to encounter another mind.

That's because the anti-intellectualism of the populists and Far Right is in direct contradiction to the basic foundations of any civilisation

"Why do you need cis people to be the ones to stand up for you?"

If you’re moved by this guy crying boy oh boy are there some other images and videos you should check out

Their memorials are history. Ours are political. Because as always, there are two sexualities - straight, and political. Two genders - male, and political. Two religions - Christian, and political. Two races - white, and political.

This is a good example of how you need quite a lot of detail of how these systems *actually* work to understand what the risks are, and how over-indexing on sci-fi can lead you a bit astray on what the future looks like

"Our industry is being consolidated into these corporate monoliths that are run by people like Larry Ellison, a radical conservative idealogue. Make no mistake: That ideology is permeating everything under the Paramount label, which will soon include Warner unless somehow these lawsuits hold up."

welcome to 2020s tech. we got - pervert glasses - wiretap - wiretap - wiretap - wiretap - the button that does nothing - we outta ram - we outta hard drives - we outta graphics cards - ten trillion vibe coded apps that nobody uses - wiretap

Oh look. They solved that pesky grassroots protest issue. Fixed that whole "citizens having a voice in what happens to their homes and communities BS. Man, what a relief, first amendment avoided!

i need this to be absolutely clear: if i ever repost animated porn, i do NOT endorse their audio design under any circumstances unless i specifically state thusly upon reposting

I am not here to debate the accuracy of this statement, merely to say that in Crank 2: High Voltage they got Jason Statham to wear a big rubber Jason Statham mask for a kaiju parody fight scene where he's stomping around like Godzilla, it's pure movie magic

next week i start my new job as a non-descript background character in exhibitionism furry porn looking shocked but slightly interested

Twitch and Amazon are being sued in a class action over claims that the tech companies harvest creators' video streams without permission or compensation to train Amazon's generative AI program. Story: www.courthousenews.com/online-strea...

I cannot express this any better.... the frustration is real

“Why are there so many people begging for money?” Because the safety nets are a lie. If they even exist at all, they’re inadequate, limited, frequently dismantled, & underfunded. Marginalized folks are denied jobs & safe housing at astronomical rates. Community is our only hope for survival.

Important to understand that the purpose of these laws is to convert unhoused people into slave labor for the prison system. That's not a side effect, or an unintended consequence. It's the main reason these laws exist.

thing i like to hammer a lot is we all got sold "the public option is better, it's more achievable, it's more popular, gotta start somewhere first" and so on and so forth and after biden won they stopped talking about it completely. not 'tried, failed, gave up' but 'don't even bring it up anymore'

people get intimidated by the social belief of "supporting the arts" as like donating $5,000,000 for a new wing at a museum or hosting some gala it's not. 10% of our audience throwing us $1.00 a month would literally be *life-changing* money most artists are in the same boat.

I have, with my own eyes, watched my tax dollars in the form of missiles as they hit buildings inhabited by civilians. I'd much prefer subsidizing a grocery story I don't use.

I had my car broken into and laptop stolen in front of a police station in San Francisco and when I walked in to report the crime the officer on duty asked what I wanted him to do about it

I'm genuinely not going to feel bad for anyone that falls for this. You will only get " you knew better and you're stupid"
