GOD SUEDE YOU! BLACK EMPEROR

Since it's been pointed out that I am just the worst at self-promotion, here's a reminder that the entire first season of Pokemon Journey, as well as 25 ALL NEW episodes from 194-219 are available FREE AND PUBLIC on my Patreon, no membership required! www.patreon.com/posts/suedes...

🎶A rich father just got told his precious angel can't be treated for precocious menstruation 🎶 (still a great first step)

I often have to grapple with the idea that I'm pushing 40 & critiquing kid's cartoons. Most people say "Kids are smart, they can handle complexity", which is true! But I also see people use that phrase as a free pass to say "I want this to be made for me specifically" Demographic still matters!

Worth noting that while Lula seems great, there is no way to lead a country that big without horrible things still happening. But the impact of not electing a fascist will be heavily felt for years to come. Aside from the hardest lines (human rights etc), don't let perfect be the enemy of not-evil

Body doubling my editing on stream if you're into that sort of thing

I don't want to be forced to disclose what I put in my burgers bc making them with rat meat is so much better for my bottom line as a small food business

They're calling it the platonic ideal of a divorce

Editing the next episode now if you want to see how the sausage is made and/or chat and we might even play Xcom!

The current wisdom is that the most likely species to become sapient next is either corvids or dolphins And I wont lie, I'm rooting for the ones that already love their pet wolves and know how to enjoy themselves without going full Cornell 7 😩 Raven nation rise up

Proton is in no way perfect (the ceo is big on AI, though he seems to be committed to make it opt-IN at least 😩), but it really does seem to be the only Google suite competitor that actually does value privacy

You know things are really really bad when "The fake ad you would make to show how awful AI is" and "Actual, unironically presented ad for AI" IS THE SAME FREAKING VIDEO

I'm editing the next episode if you want to watch me like some kind of stalker!

Astounding how weak these Christians think their God is

I just realised that I accidentally set up a perfect defense against AI accusations by streaming my scripting 😆 AI can do a lot of things but it can't imitate letter-by-letter typing and deleting a perfectly good line only to replace it with a worse one before just scrapping it completely 🫡

Please dont give up on your creative endeavors for fear that someone will make an AI clone of it. You might not hit it big, but you will know, your friends will know, and if you hear "A friend of mine does amazing bbq" no one, NO ONE will reply "Thanks but I'll just have McDonald's"

I'm doing the scripty thing again, and you can chat along and even pitch jokes if you're a patron! www.patreon.com/Suede/posts/...

Scripting is back on Patreon! Watch words get ripped from my braincase to the glowing box, chat along and even pitch jokes if you're a patron!

I hate that the Back To The Future theme wouldnt stop playing in my head

I have absolutely no memory of this. Anyone familiar with my old, old, oooold work remember what this is referencing?

Just absolutely blows my mind that theyre doing this when the exact, pin-point, 1-2 punch of me finally leaving Twitter was a) Paying to be top reply and b) Grok By all that is holy, Bluesky, if I can do it once I can do it again

I loathe to hand it to gen AI in any way but i cant deny that its presence has motivated me to pursue tactile hobbies out of spite 😆 Big "Hitler was evil but at least he killed Hitler" energy

Weird little hack that worked for me: If you're napping too long or your naps feel extremely ineffective, drink a SMALL (250ml), lightweight energy drink (or coffee) immediately before you go down for the nap. The caffeine wakes you up almost exactly 20 mins later with almost no grogginess 👍

Every time I see a creator defend using the r-slur it always rings hollow because South Park, cripple-fighting, saying-the-word-s**t-on-television-to-stick-it-censors SOUTH PARK, doesnt. The show has many big flaws but it does what it wants. If it can realise the r-slur isnt worth it, so can you 🙄

"We've set up five pieces of toast but only one is spread with The Jam Older Than God! Who wants to go first?"

"We've set up five pieces of toast but only one is spread with The Jam Older Than God! Who wants to go first?"

There's a quote from a sadly tainted piece of fiction (so I'll paraphrase and won't name it) that still keeps me going in dark times. "Your ideal world is childish, & painfully naive. I dont think it will ever exist. But I will give my life to try & build it anyway" This made me feel similar 💜

Bluntly: I used to feel forgotten. As a cishet white guy, I thought I wasn't getting the fulfillment my 'privilege' supposedly granted me. But (platonic) female & queer friends showed me that making it worse for others doesn't make it better for me. "Lashing out" just means "Wilfully Ignorant"

Welp, took longer than I thought but apparently theres a video site thats actually going to try & compete with Youtube's niche. Completely Anti-AI, too! I've been burnt by the "next twitter" wars, but we did eventually land on bluesky so I'll still keep a cautiously optimistic eye on it 🤞

Just realised that an actual legitimate answer to the Fermi Paradox might be that all sapient life eventually manufactures its own perfect, frictionless habitat through the equivalent of bespoke AI slop, therefore never reaching the stars I hope that's not it but hate how plausible it's becoming 😩

Its the inconsistency that really gets me. Imagine if someone with a huge platform said this about Charlie Kirk

TIL that "ofc" just means "of course" and not "of f___king course", I guess thats a lot of chats and posts that I thought was being more sassy than they actually were 😅

National Coming Out day, huh? Well, it feels granular to the point of not being "come-out-able", but in the spirit of the event & to help others feel inspired to be themselves... I am 95% cishet, but am also attracted to femme-passing men, & Leon S. Kennedy 😆 I'd still call myself straight, tho

Holy crap, got Dressmaker on a whim & it's already one of my favorite cozy games. Also, straight ladies? I think this could be the ultimate litmus test for if guys are secure in their masculinity/straightness. I have NEVER FELT STRAIGHTER than when I finished the tutorial & went "oh, that is sick"
