outstar 🧛🏻 in bloodlines 2 era

Might have to do it! Too bad I really like some of the native Apple apps that won't work on it :(

Oh that one broke multiple times, trackpad doesn't work, battery got bloated at some point and needed swapping, but I kept fixing it 😂 guess it's time to leave it to die but it's sad!

JUST LET ME USE MY OLDIE LEAVE ME ALONEEE

slack went "hi we won't let you use our app on this version of the browser. you need to update"

chrome went "hi we won't let you update our app you need a newer version of the os"

apple went "you can't update the os you need a newer laptop"

I'm in DRM hell

got the same mac since 2012 because I refuse to upgrade if it still works fine (and the only big advantage of macs is their longevity anyway)

discord and slack apps stopped working years ago because "can't be updated on this system". fine, I'll switch to browser

guess what 😩

AWWWWWWWWW

it's my birthday, post hot vampires 😊

Can't put thanks for these five years spent working together in a short sentence, but that's not a worry, as you'll hear me rambling them personally many times anyway!

Fly in a cloud of bats to make many more players happy. There are many notes to be taken and multiple events to happen at once ❤️

My introverted, closed off Salubri plans to be social for once in the only comfortable, safe space for him, using the night to visit a friendly bookstore

Needs to feed before to make sure no accidents happen

I was having a great day playing games with my kid until suddenly she asked me "mom what does six seven mean"

Much deserved - consider getting this game if you like minimalistic strategies (one of my fav genres!) and remember to leave a review :)

we used to have better community on deviantart, in Poland we had amazing digart, places where folks left you comments from early teenage years of drawing and built up your confidence year by year

we need more e-places like that. more amateur support. more engagement with noobs!

there doesn't seem to be a space to make mistakes, to be a newbie. it's one of the reasons why I think frieren fan art meme is great and important. besides the memery, it's a huge protest against it - we all MISSED seeing amateur art because we don't SEE it anymore (algorithms!)

in the online era where everyone is a pro, posting amateur stuff is scary. it hurts, exposes you to "akshully" crowd pushing glasses on their nose before they assert dominance (clicks) by pointing exactly where you failed, reddit mods banning you for weird rules on art forums

economy makes almost everyone struggle for income, income comes from clicks, clicks come from algorithms, algorithms don't care about the details over general visual rep.

doesn't matter if a detail reveals genAI - that fully rendered fan art clicks better than a sketch on paper

as a certified genAI art hater, I'd like more people to think about what contributed to its rise:

for decades, we've crafted and click-approved an online landscape where there's barely any space for hobby beginners. you compete for attention hand in hand with pros from day one

I'm biased towards Nosferatu, and I'm especially biased towards tragic Nosferatu love stories, so this quest got me good.

More Bloodlines 2 right here, right now!
