Washington Post laid off many of their staff photographers, too. Which seems missing from a lot of coverage I’ve read.

overthinking should at least burn calories

I don’t want to hear shit about how they’re just doing their jobs. ABOLISH ICE

Happy Birthday Lighter | Cheesetopia Champ

This sounds insane but it is, apparently, real and now I gotta go process that I guess 🤢💀

NY Times: “This a presidency that celebrates nastiness and spite, not empathy or grace, a reflection, perhaps, of a coarser era in American life.”

One take from a former Larian artist, following my interview with Swen Vincke this morning:

If I had known the two paragraphs about genAI in my article today would be so controversial, I would have expanded them a bit! Here's a rough transcript of the relevant portion of my interview with Swen Vincke, so everyone has all the context. (Full article here: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...)

consider my feedback: i loved working at @larianstudios.com until AI. reconsider and change your direction, like, yesterday. show your employees some respect. they are world-class & do not need AI assistance to come up with amazing ideas.

To quote @lukeplunkett.com :

It’s true that the right is trying to kill you and the left is just annoying sometimes.

On the one hand, it doesn’t speak well of the people who can’t tell the difference.

On the other hand, it does say something about how annoying we all can be sometimes.

losing my mind watching people genuinely complain that there wasn’t enough ‘variety’ in their awards show because Expedition 33 - a game that is exceptional in almost every way - won several awards for being exceptional in almost every way

for those asking if I think there should be a limit on how many categories a game can be nominated for: no, dummy, if different departments produce exceptional work it would be incredibly unfair not to acknowledge them individually/shut up, enjoy the rare blessing that is a game being THAT good

SUNO r/SunoAl Jo 6h ago Join ThrowRA1234567788777 Sick of having to come up with prompts Discussion ... Hey y'all, looking for some tips here. I like what I've made so far with Suno but now I'm kind of hitting a wall with ideas for prompts. Why doesn't Suno also have a feature to write prompts for you? Like just hit a button the says "new prompt" and then hit make song when it comes up with something that sounds interesting! Thoughts?

not beating the “AI art is lazy” allegations

Looks like Spotify figured out how to be shittier than their previous record as a company whose founder funds an AI-powered war drone startup, by now running ads for ICE on their platform. It was a low bar, but they managed it!

Indivisible has directions for canceling your Spotify subscription.

But her emails or whatever

“Wow! Season 2 doesn’t swear as much as season one! The writing is so much better” No season 2 swears about as much as season 1. Season 1 truly doesn’t swear as much as you think. You have literally created false fucks in your mind because the internet said so. It’s fascinating

Got mad that Netflix took off Crimson Peak so I bought the DVD and watched it that way. Good decisions were made. ✨

Familiar, a book with a red cover from a spilled vector coffee cup in the corner with the title lettering resembling simplistic fangs dripping blood, on a black wooden tray with white woven star lights and a black and gold mug.

Familiar (An Occult Misadventure) by Cara Nox—a book with a spilled coffee cup on a small black portion, pouring out red and filling the red of the cover with the title that looks like vampire teeth, complete with a black blood drop—sits in the center of the image. It’s surrounded by tropes, rep, and teasers on a black background. Clockwise, it reads: errand boy for vampire hunters, awkward gay mc x goth bi li, coffee shop meet-cute turned disaster, mistakes™ were made, hunters with ulterior motives, don't be suspicious, chaotic first person narration, vampires, werewolves, & witches. At the bottom, it reads: Familiar, Urban Fantasy, caranox.com/familiar

🖤🩸🎉 FAMILIAR RELEASE DAY

My chaotic little vampire novel is out today, and I'm excited for all of you to finally go on a fun adventure with Jules and his crush/maybe-boyfriend Saint 🥹🖤

When Kids Go Hungry, Politics Doesn’t Matter

🍎 This Isn’t Politics—It’s Public Health

This brain-dead discourse is *everywhere* and it drives me insane.

This is so small in the grand scheme of things, but man, seeing that Walmart has their Christmas stuff out in the middle of October does incite a level of rage in me.

It's that time again! Run it Backsburg #2 is right around the corner, and it's the crossover episode to boot! Make sure you register and we'll see you this weekend!
