Here is @iamstevenhale.bsky.social, who I directed you all to be following earlier and was a witness tonight, reporting on what Tennessee did tonight. Just absolutely horrifying.

Dan Johnson will design games for food @coil.bsky.social · 29/09/2026
Heck yeah.
Human-made over 5 years

No AI has been used to generate any code or content in or about the game, and never will be. Slow Roads has been a labour of love since the project began in 2021, and has been built with a decade of experience in 3D graphics and creative software development. Textures are hand-drawn, sounds are recorded locally, and all systems are designed and engineered specifically for the unique context of the game. This is a solo-developed project that I take great care over, and I believe AI simply doesn't belong in creative projects like these.

Please note that procedural generation is not a form of generative AI; the procedures used to generate the world in the game are mathematical functions that have been derived and defined by hand, with direct creative intent.

[Werner Herzog voice] Each day the celestial alignment of cat-cat-dog takes place. It signals the consumption of the evening’s dinner. Soon chaos will erupt, a cacophony of talk only understood by the mighty beasts.
Two small cats and a gigantic wolfhound in celestial alignment.

The more I look at this, the more pissed I get. But I gather that's the point of this administration now. Owning the libs until we realize how fucking pathetic they are and we just point and laugh? It's a strategy I guess. A fascist, nazi one, but here we are.

School sent out a map of temporary bus stops. The map was wrong. The data was confusing. Kids didn’t make their bus. Parents weren’t at stops. The map was made with ChatGPT. They didn’t even change the file name. 💩

HOLY SHIT NEW IMPACT CRATER ON THE MOON This crater is 222 m (728 ft) across, and formed in spring 2024. Statistical modelling tells us this is a 1-in-132 year event. So the last time a crater this big formed on the Moon was 1894.
A large crater with bright rays is situated in the centre of this image. The dark, pockmarked lunar surface makes up the background.

Finished Evangelion. Wow. The way they take the main story is crazy, just my thing. I can see why the last two episodes get criticized though. That said, I absolutely loved them. 12/10. I’d buy a print of a few scenes.

Adding to the list of things I’ve waited far too long to consume… N. K. Jemisin’s The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms. Read a third of it tonight. Not sure the last time I did that. It’s rare (Dune, A Stitch in Time, Foundation, Old Man’s War…). She really is the next Octavia Butler.

I'm doing a strict F2P account on MTG Arena so I can practice my drafting once or twice a week. With the fresh account and using the wildcards available from the start, I've made this tribal cats deck... and it's winning in the mid 60% for some reason? I mean, cool, okay. But I don't get it.
