Q@non conspiracists: the world is run by an illuminate of pedophiles WHO MUST BE STOPPED

Epstein files: looks like you were right

Q@non conspiracists: no NO NO those are our pedophiles DIFFERENT ONES diffErEnT oNes

a mostly hairless chihuahua sits in the passenger seat of a car and looks over at the driver/photographer with football-shaped glassy eyes. her ears are tucked back away from view, which gives the random sprigs of hair on her eyebrows and ears a chance to stand out from her smooth skull.

an overhead view of the top of thistle’s head. there are a half dozen (ok, eleven at MOST) scraggly white hairs all coaxed toward her back, presumably for maximum aerodynamic efficiency.

a side angle closeup of thistle’s hairs: thin white strands grow from their roots between thistle’s ears, mostly hovering over her grayish elephant skin. one statement hair swoops up above the rest at a jaunty angle, but is still aligned directionally with its mates.

This is Thistle. She's having a great hair day. All five of them are going in the same direction. 12/10 (IG: thistlethegremlin)

RE Larian and GenAI: now that we know the physical impact of LLMs and the data centers they require to run, even if trained off in-house data, there is still NO ethical way to use GenAI

@naomikritzer.bsky.social There's a pretty great Tumblr post about this: nitewrighter Mar 26 me: I don't get it. I thought I was doing a lot better than I was a few years ago. I'm like 10 times more on top of things than I used to be. How does everything feel terrible now? The Tiny Me in OSHA-approved Hi-Vis Gear Who lives in my brain and pulls all the levers: Boss, it's the fascism. You're completely gunked up with cortisol due to the fact that your entire daily life is now underscored with a haunting awareness of the rapid erosion of your rights, dignity, and any and all social safety nets, and you're also bearing witness to the most vulnerable people immediately being persecuted. This creates a natural stress response that basically means you're going to continue having memory and organizational problems, as well as emotional imbalances. Me: BUT I HAVE A BULLET JOURNAL AND I MEDIATE NOW. Tiny OSHA Me: BOSS, THE FASCISM.

For No Reason in Particular Here’s a Bunch of Games Where You Kill Nazis

This insane asshole has been doing nothing but crimes since the day he took office, you're the only branch of government with the power to remove him and you're not even going to try because it might not work? Why are you even there? To feel important and do insider trading?

Jason Schreier @jasonschreier.bsky.social Follow As the backlash to generative Al in video games continues to pick up steam heading into 2026, it'll be fascinating to see what is considered "made with generative Al." Can a dev team say thev're not using Al if thev're writing desian docs with Copilot or using chatGPT to make schedules and budgets?

It's very easy:

Just don't. The idea that Copilot or ChatGPT are suddenly essential tools is just buying into the corporate ad blitz.

Games were made just fine (well, relatively) up through...what, 2023? 2024? They didn't suddenly become VITAL for budgets or design docs in the last 2-3 years.

Guess I'll post this again

what happened to just talking together and using your brain to have ideas man, it cant be this fucking hard

America, you've spoken loud and clear: you do not like being stabbed in the dick with an ice pick. But what if stabbing yourself in the dick with an ice pick is the only way to fight, idk, climate change or whatever?

AI is Destroying the University and Learning Itself Students use AI to write papers, professors use AI to grade them, degrees become meaningless, and tech companies make fortunes. Welcome to the death of higher education.

I finally got around to reading this. You should read it too.

"We are exporting the very labor of teaching and learning—the slow work of wrestling with ideas, the enduring of discomfort, doubt and confusion, the struggle of finding one’s own voice."

Tumblr user nocryptographer: I talked with someone who works in book publishing, and they mentioned they get a lot of AI slop these days. I asked how they know what's human-written, and they said that there's one thing that will reveal AI slop without error, and that's the author not knowing their own creation. A real author can talk about their story for hours. They love to elaborate every character, every twist, every detail. Because those existed in their head long before they ever made it to the paper. They were loved before they were written. AI slop wasn't. It was just vomited into existence. Someone who generates their story with AI will never bond with their story the way real writers do. That's why they may not know what to say when they're asked why did the character do this, or even remember the scene in the first place. It's something they read, not something they wrote. And to a writer, those are not the same. There's a unique bond between the creator and the creation. If your writing doesn't come of you, you'll always lack that. I keep hearing soon we won't be able to tell. And perhaps, in a superficial sense, that's true. But there is a difference. It's not em dashes or repeated words. It's whether the story was made by someone who loves it and cares about it. If the writer's eyes light up when asked why did the character do that? and they start their very own Ted Talk about that specific scene... then it's real.

The meme culture of "here's another broken build your DM will HATE!" and the many stories about players making it their goal to play characters that break the game, is more than enough proof for the importance of tight balance in games like PF2e and its relatives.

New rule: If you can look at a TTRPG table where everyone's having a good time and say "Uh, you're actually doing it wrong" or even "You're actually wrong about how much fun you're having", then I don't have to respect your opinions on game design.

"I DON'T NEED YOU TO FUCKING REWRITE WHAT I'VE JUST WRITTEN!"

A balanced DnD party usually something like: fighter, cleric, wizard, and rogue.

A balanced Pathfinder party could mean anything, like:
A skeleton that gets drunk.
Two Raccoons, but one is wearing a witch's hat.
An actual table, that becomes a person and knows Kung-Fu.
And a pumpkin...with a gun!
