Twitch has a category called DressMaker, "This app lets you make a one-piece (texture) of a 3D avatar made with ‘’Cecil HenShin App” and ”VRoid Studio”. Import VRM and dress up!" I selected it by accident for last night's stream. twitch.tv/Deathbang121 also chose it for his Dressmaker stream.

It's Friday and we are live now with more Professor Layton and the Last Specter! www.twitch.tv/lord_loki_as...

The game case for the Nintendo DS video game "Professor Layton and the Last Specter". Professor Layton, a man in black pants, black jacket, orange undershirt, and black top hat stands in the center with a young boy on his right and a young lady on his left. The background is a cite scape with two large eyes hovering above the city and two dark hands reaching around the city to Professor Layton and his group.

Lifelong fan of Bob Ross. Always wanted to try his technique. Decided to see if I could approximate it in Krita. A lot of trial and error (and CTRL+Z) to find the right in-app tools and adapt the technique. I had to do things manually that happened naturally with the paint, etc. But it was FUN!!!

I hereby present to you all... My Gender (at least 1 possible representation of it). Debating whether to add wing(s) of some description and/or a sack of potatoes. drawn in Krita using 3 of my VRM models as ref images, incl. Butterscotch by @miyushan.bsky.social, all posed in VRM Posing Desktop

A smiling person with arms out for a hug and one leg raised with the knee bent and foot behind zem. Zey have purple hair, cat or fox ears, and a big floofy tail. The person's gender presentation is split in alternating sections between a male-presenting butler who hasn't shaved in several days and a female-presenting maid with a pink bow in the hair. The butler's suit jacket is blue. The maid's dress is white and black with pink and purple bows.

In the background are rows of hearts in pink, white, purple, black, and blue, forming the genderfluid pride flag. Behind that the image background is pale yellow (from the nonbinary pride flag, which is yellow, white, purple, black) with a faint swirly pattern. The text above and below the person reads: "Embrace the Chaos. Chaos Loves Hugs!"

If you use the clapping hands emoji between every word for emphasis, screen reader users will hear "clapping hands" after each word. This is true for any emoji. This will be distracting, annoying, and disorienting. The message you're trying to emphasize will likely be lost.

People that are MAGA are not mentally ill because of that. They are making a choice. They choose to believe the lies even in the face of evidence. People with mental illness are more likely to be survivors/victims of violence not perpetrators of it. MAGA IS VIOLENT.

Some of us have actual mental illnesses. We struggle with depression, anxiety, PTSD. Some of us have bipolar. Others are schizophrenic. And we are not out supporting murdering people or harming people. We are not trying to pass legislation to harm others. Don't conflate the two.

No one builds wealth alone. Workers, infrastructure, customers, and public systems all contribute. If every worker vanished tomorrow, no fortune would keep running. We're not just individuals competing for property, we're shareholders in the wealth we all help create together. So, UBI is your share.

Really sad to hear that Blood of the Dawnwalker used GenAI for its script. There is no GenAI content label on Steam at all for this too. I guess they only care about GenAI assets being labeled? Steam really needs to crack down on this more. I want to play games that are 100% Human Made.

What's the difference between negative income tax and cash? NIT runs through the tax system: apply, report income, wait for the return. It means-tests who falls under a poverty line. UBI pays everyone upfront and unconditionally. No filing, no waiting, no benefit cliff.

Fun Fact: In the United States we've already proven this works. During COVID, most CARES Act checks landed right in bank accounts automatically, no application, no means test, no waiting in a backlog. That's cash moving at the speed of need. This is the UBI model in action, at national scale.
