I'm so glad I can draw and function without using AI. I'm so glad I can do basic things like jobs without needing it at all

"There's no gen AI in the game at all, we only used gen AI during the development process." is not the good look people seem to think it is... Like, that's still genAI going into the game. It's still genAI being used.

What people want is no genAI. At all. Period.

Thank goodness for curly fries

apparently my joints are crunchy

now you might be thinking “wow it’s been a really long time since you started mentioning your health issues and you’re just now getting in for an appointment?”

I agree

sitting in the waiting room for my dr appointment. I am so ready to figure out what tHE FUCK is going on

nice tenpages.github.io/us-level/us....

a notes app screenshot stating “Hey, everyone. I just wanted to give an update about why I’ve been absent from streaming and social media. I’m not gonna sugarcoat it, this is the worst I’ve ever felt. My chronic pain and fatigue have been getting worse and at the time of writing this I’ve been in constant pain for at least the past month. It’s also taking for-fucking-ever to get an appointment with a specialist to get diagnosed and treated because the American healthcare system is a joke. Now for the positive(?) stuff. I will get back to streaming. I’m not sure when at the moment, but I will. I wanted to start streaming again today, but I barely have the energy to get out of bed some days. I started the conversation at work about trying to get a more accessible schedule to try to give myself some breathing room.”

“I’m not sure how much wiggle room I’ll have without an official diagnosis. Once I get things more under control, I want to fill as much of my free time with streaming as I can. I’ll probably return to streaming with a PNGtuber because I think it’ll be easier to go live if I don’t have to be on camera, and I’ll see how it goes from there. In the meantime, I’ve been trying to find low energy hobbies that still allow me to make things and be creative. In the small bursts of energy I do get, I’ve been working on stuff behind the scenes like making sub badges and dumb emotes for the channel. For anyone who’s still here waiting for me to return, I appreciate your patience and I’m sorry things are taking so long. I’ll be back soon(ish). Take care of yourselves, friends ❤️”

an update on my health and return to streaming

screenshot of a text saying “Hi, this is PGE with an update on your outage at [address]. The estimated time for your power to be restored has been changed to 11:45PM on 12-18-25. Thank you for your patience, as we work as quickly as safety allows.”

the “guess I’ll die” meme

I DO NOT CARE IF ITS FREE

FUCK THE TRANSPHOBIC WIZARD GAME

EAT MOLD

This entire grift relies on convincing people that they don't know how to do the things they have always known how to do, and ironically, if it works, we will, in a very short amount of time, forget how to do all the things we have always known how to do.

gonna pay off my camera soon, I can feel it

oh, bluesky makes transparent backgrounds white apparently. rude

in the small bursts I can actually do things I’ve been trying to make emotes to use when I can stream again, and now this monstrosity exists

it's wild how the positive use cases are like "save 5 minutes reading a long doc" and "write a generic email faster" and the negative use cases are "get encouraged to dive deeper in psychosis, misogyny, or suicidal thoughts" and we're still on the fence about overall value

don’t do the math on how much music that is per day

I’ve also been trying to get better at drawing and using Affinity apps for designing stuff but it’s kinda hard for me to hold a pencil/stylus for more than like 45 minutes at a time :(

since whatever is wrong with me has stolen all of my energy, I’ve started trying some low energy hobbies to sate my need to Make Things™. currently I’m learning how to use Logic Pro. if anyone has any tutorials or tips they wanna share, I’ll give you a virtual smooch on the forehead

the glasses I’ve been wearing for the past few years cost like $80 from Zenni. iirc all you need is your prescription and interpupillary distance, and to be careful with your glasses because they’re probably gonna be made from plastic

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

big reminder btw

there's already so damn many games in existence that literally every game from this point onward could be binned, and id still have more games than i could possibly finish.

we do NOT have to accept AI at all. quit coping ai losers

the good* news is that I got some of the test results back and they definitely show something is Wrong™. hopefully I can check in with my dr next week after the holiday and get pointed in the right direction

take care of yourselves, friends ❤️

the new meds aren’t doing as much as I hoped, so I think I need to push back my return to streaming a little bit more

one of the coolest things about ChatGPT is how you can actually just never use it. you can fill your whole entire life with simply not once using it. it's incredible.

The fact that you now can't trust basically any form of media is one of the worst parts of AI.

Not just drawings, but pictures, video, text, even whole identities. You have to vet everything to a more significant degree, and its exhausting.

Did we have to vet stuff before? Yeah, but not like this.

If you use genAI assets as placeholders, you’re just as bad as anyone using genAI in final product releases. The damage to the environment, artists, your fellow employees and you has already been done. No I won’t play your fucking game (reposted to fix a typo)

I’m hoping to get back to streaming while I’m off work for thanksgiving, and then I’ll try to come up with a schedule once I have my health stuff under control

I hope to see y’all on thursday for my first time experiencing digimon

okay so I saw a dr last week and I’ll be getting some tests done this week. in the meantime I got put on some news meds that I’m trying to adjust to

I do understand: you want permission. There’s a machine in the corner wrapped in human skin that makes things out of shit and blood to look like whatever you want (as long as you don’t look too closely). You gave one to your teacher and they didn’t notice. Your boss told you to use it after they laid off half the team and it was fine. You fed one to your kids and they liked it. You want to know you can use it sometimes without me thinking less of you. You don’t need me to believe it’s useful, you just want me to be polite about it. But I am a hater, and I will not be polite. The machine is disgusting and we should break it. The people who build it are vapid shit-eating cannibals glorifying ignorance. I strongly feel that this is an insult to life itself.

I cosign every single word of this
