"But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer." - J.R.R. Tolkien

@czepeku.bsky.social makes the highest-quality battlemaps in the world, bar none. The Dark Matter Mega Box includes a set of 50 dry- and wet-erasable sci-fi battlemaps by Czepeku, in print for the first time. Each is a beautiful and creative backdrop for whatever adventure you can imagine!

screenshot of a tumblr post from user “wildmansters” The thing that really boils my potatoes about Al in general is that I have been a creative professional for over a decade now and the devil has ALWAYS been in the details. Big and small, I've had single-person businesses rip me to shreds over how their colors turned out on newsprint, and have worked with huge companies with THICK brand guidelines with every detail of their brand identity laid out and enforced with an iron fist. But I guess all of that stuff doesn't matter anymore? Who gives a fuck if this Al generated baby has six fingers, that mom-and-pop shop is still going to use it. That rug from Temu says Happy Thanksgivirg? Oh well haha it's just a silly funny thing now (nevermind that you never would have given a B-grade item from a craft show the same consideration). I don't actually care that the Al Coca-cola ad has a truck that changes size every scene, but I can't help but think about how, if it had been some poor underpaid artist, they would have been laughed out of the building. I don't really know how to put it in a succint way but it just feels all the more obvious how much more grace and flexibility has always been possible but never offered.

i know WHY this is but that just makes it even more of a kick in the pants lmao

If I had a a nickel for every time William Nylander hit multiple posts on a sure-fire goal, I'd have at least two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's unreal that it happened twice.

This is the second time this summer he's dunked on my contract predictions. Tavares and Stolarz are signed to sweetheart deals for what they bring.

This is a good time to remind y'all that Project 2025 equates "transgender ideology" to pornography.

Trans athletes taking over the Olympics is not a thing. Trans athletes faring much better than “pretty good at a regional” is barely a thing. Most trans athletes just don’t want to lose a favourite hobby post-transition. We have failed them by letting this become such a big political talking point

We keep saying this but the biggest issue in the spring is still that the forward group is so offensively shallow that they can zero all their defensive efforts in on the top guys, and that the back end is too slow to move pucks. They've tried some version of "find a new grit guy" almost every year

I hope you enjoy our film. #Superman is in theaters today.

The absolute joy of finally paying off your student debt, congratulations 🎉

It's official. The SAG strike is finally over. It took an entire year but now VAs have the AI protections they sought. This is a huge victory. Do not let anyone who isn't in the industry tell you otherwise.

hey every single journalist who still uses twitter as your primary site, does the fact that the chatbot is promoting the Final Solution rise to the level of a news story or no

Main character energy is OUT, this summer we’re bringing NPC energy. We’re posted up at the bar dropping lore and suggesting side quests. We’re leaning casually near a locked door and saying “I don’t think you have the key for that” when someone tries the handle. We’re staring at a tree.

Leafs need more garbage down in front. Net front bang and crash plays to make Ullmark uncomfortable. Right on top of the crease.

Greasy goals.

I needed this, you may too.

"He's Pure Evil": Former Tesla Engineer Says Elon Musk Threatened to Deport Her Team for Pointing Out a Problem With the Brakes A Tesla engineer has accused Tesla of threatening her team with deportation after bringing up a brake safety issue with CEO Elon Musk.

It is difficult for me to convey how profoundly unsurprised I was reading this article, which is about the world's richest and most famous entrepreneur threatening to deport his employees for pointing out a potentially fatal safety issue with his car company's brakes

The thing about some popular author insulting asexual people is nothing she said hasn't been said *directly to me* before by other popular authors. The hatred of aces isn't new.

Fix your hearts. We're not leaving.

For what it's worth, your comics are great for digging out of a bad mood after a loss ✏️

From Episode 4 "Punished, as a Boy". Pic 1. Crozier: "We're exhausted." Pic 2. Crozier: "We're all exhausted." (same tbh)

A passage of text discussing society’s ongoing debates over gender-related policies, such as sports participation and medical care for minors. The text argues that while these issues can be debated, the government should not target transgender Americans by stripping them of their freedom and dignity. It describes such a campaign as one rooted in cruelty and humiliation.

"we still want to debate whether trans people should exist, we just want to do it politely."

They still don't understand why this debate exists in the first place. It was kicked up by bad actors to enable the very actions they're now decrying. The NYT still doesn't understand the moment.
