Dang yall, thanks so much for the support 😭 Usually I ignore the random AI accusations but I wanted to take the chance to talk about how important it is to do your research in times like these. Didn't expect to get soooo many kind comments though! We gotta stick together, my beloved art community ♥️

OH. right! i get it now!

i get why AI is so depressing to me. because covid already shrunk my world to almost nothing, where almost all of my life revolves around socializing and watching videos on the internet (which is being ruined by AI) and creating creative works through coding (which is being ruined by AI), often using open source tools and libraries (which are being ruined by AI)

i already had so little and now even that is being rotted away before my eyes

So this game called "Dverghold" came across my Steam homepage. Interesting retro vibes, apparently collabing with a dungeon synth artist for the OST. The art was kinda tickling my AI-dar though, so I scrolled down to look for any disclaimers.

There were a lot of points made in this short that I hadn't really considered, as someone who had kind of bounced off of the art style in the same way I bounced off of the newer starfox designs, but there are a lot of very good points made of the idea of 'Maximalist Fantasy' being used here.

If you read the article, this is solely in terms of what might win GOTY at the game awards, and not like saying there's slim pickings for good games in general, which would be an absurd claim, but the title and post is bait. Besides, who cares about the game awards when we have The Casey Awards?

But he wasn't brought back to life was he? He's dead, and had no part of this. And specifically it is Val Kilmer *from the 90s*, so this wouldn't have been the performance they got if they cast him. Pretty appropriate name for something so ghoulish, using a dead actor to court publicity.

If you're appalled that we celebrate the deaths of people who make it a very lucrative life's work to deliberately harm others for the sake of profit and corruption, then you have failed to understand the moment. We have no recourse to their oppression but their deaths, so we cheer when they die.

I love when MAGA types publish a list of unambiguously good things as if they're unambiguously bad things. It's such a revelation of what fearful cowardly people they are. We live in times of radical abuses. We should all seek radical remedies. All I can say to this is Hell Yeah.

A scare add about the DSA that reads "DSA's new platform: WORKERS DESERVE MORE. Radical goals. Straight from their platform."

The goals include:

Abolish the senate, expand the house of representatives and implement proportional representation and ranked choice voting

Replace the President and Supreme Court
Defund the Department of War
Abolish the Carceral State
Free Palestine
End Sactions on Cuba, Venezuela, and Iran
Abolish ICE and grant amnesty for all
Public ownership of major corporations
Abolish the Electoral College
Replace the two-party system with a multi-party democracy.

Their ultimate goal: A Democratic Socialist Republic. To win the battle for democracy, draft a new constitution, and create a democratic socialist republic.

It ends with the warning: This is the DSA's official platform. They wrote it. They approved it. Now you know.

To which I personally can only say Hell Yeah.

I have absolutely no real interest in the "take the phones away from kids" discourse. My only real opinion is that parents, especially low-income ones, should be paid more so they can spend time raising their kids instead of working 5 jobs to keep food on the table and a roof over their heads.

This is why you shouldn't "just" use it for *anything*. I mean. There are other reasons. But those reasons -- the environment, the ethics, etc -- require people to give a damn about something outside themselves. I go to this one when I think a selfish reason might be more motivating.
