"Let me make sure there is colorblind options, lemme make sure their is support for larger text support if I can" and yeah sometimes you get some Celeste style options, but no one owes you a game you can complete. They just might also make sure you don't fail for the wrong reasons.

After years of useless posture advice ("imagine a string pulling you up"???), the only technique that's ever worked for me is to imagine there are laser beams coming out of your nipples and aim for people's heads. It works, and people cannot tell you're doing it
Meme of lone person in the corner of a party while others socialize, thinking "they don't know I'm... lining up headshots with my laser nipples". Laser beams are shooting out of his nipples at the other party goers

"please bless the poor coyote" poetry or something. 2025.
a poem, reading as follows:

	please bless the poor coyote
	who lives where we say she shouldn't
	nosing through the garbage piles
	that rot along the freeway

	please aid the stray coyote
	and keep her from the trapper's snare
	pray she sniffs out all the poison
	pray she lives to run away

	please guide the lost coyote
	bless and keep her as she wanders
	may she always come back home
	may it all turn out okay

	please feed this gaunt coyote
	may she carry a full litter
	of five to eight pups or more
	who live to raise their own one day

	pray for the sly coyote
	may she rest in sunny places
	and run in open fields
	and may she never want for prey

	please love the dear coyote
	who lived when we said she couldn't
	may all her years be kind to her
	may she go gently on her way

I phoned PayPal on +44203 901 7000. The advisor hadn't heard of the itch.io case. We discussed the best ways to have a complaint go up the hierarchy. I was also advised to email EuropeanServices@PayPal.com I'd advise phoning ASAP, insist the advisor escalate the complaint, and email as well.

Hot take: If polyamory we’re more normalized in the stories we tell we could plumb even greater emotional depths of the intimate relationships between people beyond the framework of jealousy and perceived ownership over our loved ones time, energy, and attention

Teasing my character creation deck with another character. Tanek Vast: Unkillable, he reverts to level 1 instead of death. Covered in scars. Inheritor of all the plunder from countless TPK’d parties. Craves the sweet release of death. Only the demon blade that cursed him can end the cycle.

that and this excerpt from a short poem by william saroyan are works that always get to me. i think about this one from time to time.
a screenshot with just text. the text reads "I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose history is ended, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, whose literature is unread, whose music is unheard, whose prayers are no longer uttered.

Go ahead, destroy this race. Let us say that it is again 1915. There is war in the world. Destroy Armenia. See if you can do it. Send them from their homes into the desert. Let them have neither bread nor water. Burn their houses and their churches. See if they will not live again. See if they will not laugh again. See if the race will not live again when two of them meet in a beer parlor, twenty years later, and laugh, and speak in their tongue. Go ahead, see if you can do anything about it. See if you can stop them from mocking the big ideas of the world, you sons of bitches, a couple of Armenians talking in the world, go ahead and try to destroy them."

LLMs are nothing more than models of the distribution of the word forms in their training data, with weights modified by post-training to produce somewhat different distributions. Unless your use case requires a model of a distribution of word forms in text, indeed, they suck and aren't useful.

Doing some worldbuilding. Is it too on the nose? #worldbuilding #writing
Wiki page titled "Ancient Ephrite Empire". It reads:

A great empire spanning from the western Sanguine Sea to the eastern Hircene Sea, and even beyond this world. They did many great works, and then fell to themselves, as all empires do.

Their wise men discovered the Aether, and ways to control it. They used it to develop Magic. They learned rituals to cross worlds. Their craftsmen created powerful devices. They bent nature to their will. They invented new creatures to serve their needs. They thrived in generations of growth and plenty. They used power to deform themselves beyond recognition.

In their ultimate conceit, their wise men sought to make a god. It was a ritual of unimaginable blood and torment. The ritual was only partially successful, and the new god was stillborn.

A dead god is unworthy of worship. They should have let it lie forgotten. But the wise men loved and mourned their creation, and in their pride, sought to amend the failed ritual, to grant it full life. So divinely blessed by a dead god, they arranged a sacrifice. None could stop them. They sacrificed all the craftsmen, the mathematicians, the scribes, and the workers of art. And finally, the wise men sacrificed themselves.

Its culture, knowledge, craft, and wisdom destroyed, the empire's grand powers fell to a dark age of blood and desperation.

The barren remnants of their edifices punctuate the landscape, stripped of relics. Descendants of their creations live among us - the Lizardmen, Sectoids, and Gargs.

The stillborn god lingers in the roots of the earth. It calls silently, unthinking, to all who seek power.
