it is kind of wild how 'ai' was a perfectly useful term for decades in talking about npc behavior in video games and now you cant use it without seeming like youre flagging allegiance to the death cult

There are no video games without video game developers. Trillionaire corporations will continue to treat devs as line items on a balance sheet unless we fight back. Join us on August 18th to #SaveGameWorkers, as we rally across nine studios in the US and Canada. More location details to come soon.

Panel 2: But Nolan-as-Pierrot continues, stating resolutely, "To us, it was our duty." Standing beside him, his friend Allen the Alien stares in bewilderment.

A boyish blonde witch poses from behind, looking over his shoulder with a smile at the viewer while his left leg kicks back. His left arm extends out as his hand makes a peace/V-for-victory sign, and his right hand grips his waist. He wears a floppy black and purple witch hat with a purple and yellow tassel, a cropped light grey jacket, an even shorter purple shirt with a long banner-like front, a light grey belt over his ripped denim shorts, a black garter-like ribbon on his thigh and black thigh-high stockings, with light grey legwarmers over similarly-colored platform shoes with purple soles. A shooting star design in gradient yellow swoops behind him on the warm, peach-colored background.

Sharing the 1990 Bisexual Manifesto once again to remind everyone that bisexuality was NEVER binary

The 1990 Bisexual Manifesto

We are tired of being analyzed, defined and represented by people other than ourselves — or worse yet, not considered at all. We are frustrated by the imposed isolation and invisibility that comes from being told or expected to choose either a homosexual or heterosexual identity. Monosexuality is a heterosexist dictate used to oppress homosexuals and to negate the validity of bisexuality.

Bisexuality is a whole, fluid identity. Do not assume that bisexuality is binary or dougamous in nature; that we must have “two” sides or that we must be involved simultaneously with both genders to be fulfilled human beings. In fact, don’t assume that there are only two genders. Do not mistake our fluidity for confusion, irresponsibility, or an inability to commit. Do not equate promiscuity, infidelity, or unsafe sexual behavior with bisexuality. Those are human traits that cross all sexual orientations. Nothing should be assumed about anyone’s sexuality — including your own.

We are angered by those who refuse to accept our existence; our issues; our contributions; our alliances; our voice. It is time for the bisexual voice to be heard.
