Hey everyone, this is still ongoing and additional funds are always needed! Nina's visa is biggest expense for this process but it's not the only one nor will it be the last - plus she'll be out of a job after she moves - so any additional funds we can hold on to are super important. More below.

Hey Bluesky! Do you want to help a trans woman move to a safe place so she can be with her loved ones? Boy do I have an opportunity for you! I continue raising money to cover all the immigration expenses (and there's a lot of them) ko-fi.com/zeitgeistmis... Donations and reposts are appreciated ๐Ÿ’™

I love being reminded that the audience really doesnโ€™t give a shit about the developers. Like, forget that one of the most influential studios in our industry was just executed by its publisher, just make sure the product continues on the assembly lines!

After hearing news of BioWare's closure on Wednesday, over 75,000 Mass Effect fans have signed a petition demanding that EA put another studio in charge of the franchise or license out the IP. https://bit.ly/4siIubW

The infamous "WET YOURSELF..." Super Mario Sunshine print ad is often posted online without context, leading many to believe it is fake or fan-made. However, it is very much real, appearing on page 130 of issue 119 of the British Nintendo Official Magazine.

when they say shit like "you have to be practical and understand that the average voter is transphobic" they are talking about themselves

BEGGING my fellow streamers to PLEASE stop using Tangia! I don't care if it makes for funny clips. Most voices on Tangia come from people who've very publicly said they don't want their voice taken from them this way. AI voices hurt ALL voice actors. You're better than this. Use other TTS.

I was deeply involved in a streamer's community (had supplied music mixes and a raid alert for her, even) and had to walk away because she was letting Tangia take over. She was happy getting endlessly interrupted by AI Borat or GLaDOS or whoever spending a minute not answering a question.

It always comes back to this for me; if AI was so good, such a disclosure would be a selling point. If AI was everything these slop jockeys said it was, they should be proud to let people know their game was AI made. But the proof is in the pudding, and they can't stand that people don't want it.

I can't believe he's still at it, it's been days

Overslept for 15 hours, unable to contact a family member in crisis, my pharmacy didn't issue repeat scripts for several medications I need plus my antidepressant script expired, and now I've lost my fucking wallet and can't even go get milk to have a cup of coffee. Useless fucking day.

I think a rule that after you violate the law more than 100 times your company gets shut down and you cannot own another. But I am weird like that.
