I remember blowing the minds of my players back in the day while running Tempest Feud with "There's a Hutt wearing what?" Good times!

Hail Eris!

I haven't been to #gencon in at least a decade, and trying to book a hotel room reminded me why. Even with the lottery, a lottery draw 4 hours after go live means nothing was available. Good thing I made a backup non-block hotel reservation earlier.

Someone mentioned Valentine's day, I automatically assumed he was talking about the 1929 massacre.
He was not.
History addiction is a serious affliction 😁

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

The only Democratic statements I want to hear about the Trump gestapo are like this, from the awesome Philly DA Larry Krasner. No less truth, no less fire.

You walk into this bar and show your ICE mugshot, you don't pay a dime.

About how many holes, in your opinion, would you say you were digging?

(is each shovelful of snow a hole? experts are split)

every online community is now like hi and welcome to r/transformers, this week we're talking about what the best version of Devastator is to celebrate the release of the Mixmaster, if you work for ICE kill yourself, and a sneak peek at the new creative team on the Transformers series from Skybound!

There once was a douchebag named Trump,
Who was a lying fucking asshole.
Fuck that guy,
Fuck that guy,
Fuck that guy.

still from the Star Trek original series episode Let That Be Your Last Battlefield showing two men with split black and white faces

Got a ton of comments on my Starfleet Academy review calling it "woke" and when I explained that Star Trek has always been progressive people started fighting about how the franchise was never as in your face back in the day and yeah totally, it used to be SUPER subtle

That's a shame. I haven't been to GenCon for nearly a decade, but the food court was always great for grabbing a quick bite, and a Sunday movie at the theater there was a tradition among my friends.

If it's the dramatic moment from Con of the North(?) that one year, I've recounted that story third hand several times over the years!

mzsibyl_® › •: Al Threads 3d Tired of the Prompt Thieves in the Al art community. Seriously, the moment a great prompt is public, someone immediately copies it, shares it, and pretends it's their own genius work. It's not about gatekeeping, it's about giving credit where it's due. Stop stealing and start creating! #PromptStealer 1/2

OscarAl @Artedeingenio X.com Never do this: Passing off someone else's work as your own. This Grok Imagine effect with the day-to-night transition was created by me — and I'm pretty sure that person knows it. To make things worse, their copy has more impressions than my original post. Not cool

subscribe @Artedeingenio I don't know what you think, but this seems a bit unfel to me. My original post with the Saori Kido Athena prompt has 4,000 impressions, while @dvorahfr's post with an image created with my prompt has 30,000. As for not quoting me as the author, I'm not saying anything, because she has apologised. I would like to understand that it was an unintentional mistake, although I think I'm well enough known around here to use a prompt of mine without knowing it's mine. If I wasn't so well known, would there have been a rectification? I am afraid that many small accounts are stolen on a daily basis and nothing happens. But for a copy to be more widely distributed than the original is a very bad symptom. Without focusing on anyone, I think that some big accounts hardly create original content and just post other people's content, often without quoting the author, and that's very uncool. Respect and honesty above all else. Let's play fair.

AI sloppers (is that a term?) crying that their prompts are being stolen is more beautiful than anything AI could produce
