The main event for Yuki Kamifuku’s self-produced show is set! Yuki Iino from NOAH will team with Kamifuku! Though the two have never crossed paths in the ring, they’re known to be close friends through their interactions on social media. This is a one-of-a-kind tag team you won’t see anywhere else!

this is a great analysis, screencapped cos the quote is too long to fit into bluesky:
YouTuber OzymandiasV2 argues that, seen through this lens, Clark’s ultimate decision to remain in the backrooms at the end of the movie is a great metaphor for generative AI users, saying that there are now no demands for Clark to “change, grow, or express anything resembling an original thought… He can exist without the exhausting labor of producing meaning. This is a similar promise that many find in generative AI.”

Local man has no idea what socialism is. Also, remember when we had to live through interminable debates about gay wedding cakes? And now no one blinks an eye. In 15 years, this gendered sports bullshit is going to be remembered in exactly the same way. Dumbasses trying to scare other dumbasses.

@eniko@mastodon.gamedev.place

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

There is a well-worn path from "uwu no politics" to "how was I supposed to know they were bad?" The fandom we get depends on who and what we support. Folks who ignore the shitty people in their spaces don't realize how it pushes the cool people out of that space until only the shitty ones are left.
