New AI gore: Pictures of plates of pretzels. I didn't realize pretzels were a moebius strip/gordion knot of dough with salt on it.

An AI generated "drawing" of pretzels, but the pretzels themselves are all odd shapes and strangely connected to each other.

An AI generated "photo" of pretzels in a bowl, but all of the pretzels are basically connected to each other more like a maze or really long line of spaghetti than individual food items.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to identify artist signatures? I have this piece of Magic the Gathering art, but I want to know the artists that contributed.

Been doing a bit more baking recently, and I've wanted to try more things than just the cookie recipes that I know. Had some good success with this gluten free cinnamon roll recipe! My wife declared them "mouthwatering" ❤️ nomnompaleo.com/easy-cinnamo... #baking #glutenfree #desserts #selfcare

Love that Microsoft decided to send me a rejection notice, but I had honestly forgotten about applying considering it was months ago and before I started my new job.

Hi Lindsay,

Thank you for your interest in a career at Microsoft. Unfortunately, we will not be moving forward...

Hey! Thanks, I'm glad you're enjoying it! "Post to BGStats" allows you to import a game to BGStats from ClockTracker. There's a button similar to the BGG one that only appears on mobile to trigger the import.

Menu on a game recorded in ClockTracker. Options are: mark as favorite, edit, delete, post to BGG, and post to BGStats

One of my hobbies connected to writing is creating fantasy maps. This is the latest map that I've created, I think it turned out pretty nice!

A hand-drawn fantasy map of a continent called Zephynne. The map is drawn with an ink pen, with no coloring added. The continent has two mountain ranges, and a number of rivers. There are four different island groups around the continent.

Going clockwise, the island groups are called:

- Ygan
- Eol
- Leas
- Weywyn

From top to bottom, the nations shown are:

- Nostor
- Sitheil
- Kosyn
- Ylsig
- Kalith Drogen
- Grahald
- Ostir
- Rann
- Deasgard
- Eld
- Hedyr

A moment Flashes, The car impacts, Is this real? A #delay As my car spins And the world shifts from school pickup To concussion and insurance calls. A pause Between crash and resolution Blocking traffic as I ask once again, Was it my fault? A place Where nothing Is ever the same again. #vss365

Sonic the Hedgehog fan games! Started making games, made a site to host them, then stopped making games to make websites for myself and groups I was in. I turned in this paper at school (don't remember the exact date, early to mid 2000's) about what I wanted to do for a job. Guess it worked out!

What I want to do for a career is be a website designer. I think that this is quite fun, as you sit at a computer typing and clicking. You get to create almost anything you want, and all you need to know is HTML, or hypertext markup language. It lets you do, as I said above, almost anything you want it to do. See below:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Demo</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY BGCOLOR="#000000" TEXT="#FFFFFF">
<P>This is my demo of a website. It is quite simple.</P>
<BR><A HREF="http://www.jk3doomclan.tk">This is a website that I made.</BR>
<P>Anyway, so this shows that I know HTML. If you put this into WordPad, it comes out neat in web browsers.</P>
</BODY>
</HTML>

See? That's all there is to it!
