Screencap of Tumblr post. Text reads:
"trans girls will be like “yeah i mean my voice isnt that good” and then make noises that activate the prey drive humans haven’t had for thousands of years

see also: trans girls being like “oh you know i dont really like my face but it’s ok it’s whatever” and then you hop on a video call and you’re staring at aphrodite

How do I reblog this so my trans girl friends can feel validated and see what I think of them while also being the exception?

simple. acknowledge that you aren’t actually the exception and the fact that your body and face and voice might not look exactly how you want right now doesn’t mean they’re not beautiful and they’ll only get better from here"

My spiciest Warhammer opinion is that the empire needs to be more visually diverse in terms of local planet cultures.

I want more expressionist statues of the emprah

i'm doing a bunch of worldbuilding for a thing which, if i do it correctly, the majority of casual readers will never ever realize i did at all because it will create an illusion that no worldbuilding was involved

why? love of the game

It's a spooky season, and if you ask me, genetically engineered giants wearing a battle suit that can rip mech to shreds are damn scary. Especially if it is middle of the night and they have Summoner mech for a company.

This is a favorite thing of mine to do! (I'm also a fan of letting the player dictate it being a dumb goof up if they think that's fun)

Bluesky needs a bit of a culture shift

I'm noticing that engagement has kindof been cratering, but favs haven't. People will fav a post but not comment or repost it, I've noticed this with others as well.

If you like something, spread it! Try commenting to bump it or repost it eh?

Going from avowed to the outer worlds one, it’s wild how many ways avowed improves in the game - just in the simple moment to moment play.

Do not buy either game

this is, btw, the central problem with D&D, it has horror dice in disguise (d20 is just a d100, get wrecked, polyheads)

One of the funny things one realizes when dealing with the people who work on all the VR headsets is that seemingly none of them:
- follow or knows any VR content creators, or knows about any of their discourse
- really knows how customers actually use react to or use HMDs

there is a certain kind of backer who seems convinced that I specifically singled them out and fucked up their shipping in a cruel and unusual way, often requiring me to hire a private detective or at least stalk random individuals who backed my game 2 years ago

perhaps it is a millennial disease, this sort of juvenile clinging to ‘cosy’ narrative. a world free of suffering or consequence, a convenient world, ignoring the work. Ignoring the work entirely

is there something more positive we can call friend slop games?? cause I genuinely enjoy them and it feels disingenuous to call them slop but what else do i call games where you and 3 others go somewhere awful and die probably LOL.

the amount of academic research now using llms in research (synthetic data generation, to classify, annotate, or analyse large scale data, etc) is astounding. remember, just cus use of llms in research is becoming normalised does NOT erase the fact it degrades the research & undermine your results

it is very funny to me that the central plot of Terminator: Zero can largely be "STEMLord sleeps through humanities, regrets it as he realizes rhetoric and elocution are the only thing standing between him and the apocalypse"

Brother, every GOP issue has been a fabrication spun out of nothing for as long as I can remember. The Trans "Debate", DEI, Antifa, Wokeness, Political Correctness, Cancel Culture, Vaccine Injury Conspiracies, FEMA Death Camps, The Satanic Panic.

PANEL 1: MATTIE is sitting on a park bench. The IMPORTANT PUNDIT is running over, pointing off-panel.
PUNDIT: Hey! Hey You! HEY! YOU!
PUNDIT: Do you CONDEMN the actions of that guy over there?

PANEL 2: MATTIE strains to look where the PUNDIT was looking, who holds two photographs in her line of sight.
MATTIE: Well, I can't really see what he's even doing, so–
PUNDIT: YOU DON'T CONDEMN?! Even though I'm holding a picture of YOU and a picture of HIM next to each other?

PANEL 3: MATTIE, shrugging. The PUNDIT yells off-panel.
MATTIE: You didn't even say what he's DOING–
PUNDIT: HEY EVERYONE!!!
PUNDIT: SHE DOESN'T CONDEMN! SHE'S NOT CONDEMNING!

PANEL 4: A crowd gathers at the front of the panel, surrounding MATTIE. The pundit turns, arms crossed.
PERSON 1: What?! Wow.
PERSON 2: That's craaaaazy
PERSON 3: Is she sure

the vet accidentally charged me for some other dog’s urine analysis. some guy probably spent all weekend thinking he’d gotten a free urine analysis “on the house” for being a valued customer. not so.
