Something wicked this way grows. Four days! Try the free demo comprising the game's opening hours. Your save carries over when the game launches Thursday! Take in the scenery but be sure not to be devoured by it in our gothic, narrative roguelike. store.steampowered.com/app/3796150/...
Finished Split Fiction. What should me and @swingdancingdragon.bsky.social play together next? Also really liked Biped but bounced off It Takes Two because didn't like roleplaying a divorcing couple!

Like many artists, I am struggling with AI. My reaction to this has been to create an entirely human made product for other humans to make! You can buy a little paper house. It arrives in a bright envelope with a bit of art and silliness. More here: www.lucycorrina.co.uk/shopproducts...

This is what I do: when I collect my SSRIs, I wrap one of the boxes separately. Then when I'm about to run out of the others, I order more meds. My GP allows enough wiggle room for this, and it means I know if I have to come off them because of lack of supply, I can do it safely.
Spending money I don’t have on emergency supplies that will keep me alive long enough to suffer without all the medications also keeping me alive because you can’t stockpile those 🎉

Love the idea, let's start a train of art inspired by Bioware games ❤️ These stories mean the world to me, its characters inspired me for years, the artists and writers behind them literally helped shape my artistic journey. I am thankful for everything you've created 🫶
In the wake of the news... feel free to quote with your art, fic, edits, etc. to show our love! Salutes in chat for the end of an era 🫡 Dragon Age truly is ours and no one can take that from us.

A recent survey has found that the top employers of autistic people are the IT and retail industries – closely followed by beloved superhero team the X-Men.
Can't remember if I've shared this one before. Probably. It's my fave. www.youtube.com/shorts/Mab4s...

I do not believe that A) a 50 mins AI ep of Doctor Who could be generated containing anything approaching a story and B) anyone would sit through it, let along describe it as 'pretty good', so I'd love to know what the real story is here.
"An artificial intelligence-generated episode of Doctor Who was “pretty good,” according to BBC Director General Matt Brittin." What a desirable future that is. Soon there will be shows created entirely by machines for machines, which will generate tons of content!! Hallelujah.
New Wheat Googling today! This one is, if I'm honest, mainly about buttons... www.tumblr.com/magic-at-the...
Can anyone think of a reason to create this that *isn't* about taking jobs from actors? The best I've come up with is 'because we can'. Time for a new luddite revolution.
This reminds me of how during teacher training we were told about a survey of students who completed an assignment using AI. Some of the pros the students identified were "the AI never gets tired" and "the AI never gets bored"

EXCLUSIVE: 404 Media placed a tracking device in a shipment of rare books to see which AI company was buying it, and found an Amazon facility where Amazon scans and destroys books. @evystadium.bsky.social has more. Investigation by @emanuelmaiberg.bsky.social here: www.404media.co/we-tracked-a...

Listen team, if you're finding your creative endeavours hard going today, do what the rest of us do: slouch around feeling sorry for yourself and eating hula hoops for a few hours. Don't try to convince yourself there's an easier way. If you didn't write it, it isn't art.
Some of them also seem to think that they enjoy writing. They don't; otherwise they wouldn't be using AI. They approach writing like something that needs to be optimised -- but you cannot optimise what you already love!

Oh, I am so relieved about this! I love Tillie Walden and was really looking forward to reading her book.
out it goes: my long post about Rachel Hope Cleves's claim that Tillie Walden plagiarised her book. It's long because Cleves's claim is much, much more bizarre than it looked on first reading. I'm not going to bury the lede here. Cleves's claim does not hold up. buttondown.com/thene/archiv...

I expect to see this brutal warning from the UN not to be featured on a single national or Scottish front page or website. British media will determinedly ignore it because creating this hate campaign and its consequences has been part of their joint ideological project.
"GENEVA – UN human rights experts* today warned that the UK’s revised Code of Practice for Services, Public Functions, and Associations, in force as of 5 August, may place transgender and gender-diverse persons at heightened risk of discrimination and exclusion." www.ohchr.org/en/press-rel...
