"My Home" wall hanging quilt. Quote from Gender Queer: A Memoir by @redgoldsparks.bsky.social IT'S DONE!!! I am incredibly pleased with how this project turned out. 💚 It will be on display at the Tempe Queer Takeover at Rocket Space Gallery, opening tonight! Flyer posted below 👇

A photo of a wall hanging quilt made of different green fabric with solid green, ferns and leaves. The center is compiled of small pieces of fabric sewn together. Embroidered around it is the quote "Between the ocean and the mountains is a wild forest. That is where I want to make MY HOME" from the graphic novel "Genderqueer" by Maia Kobabe. The last two words are consisted of bright yellow-green yarn. A decorative stitch of vines with leave surround the area of the quote and on the binding of the quilt. The quilt hangs from a tree branch.

A close up shot of the center of the quilt, showcasing the embroidery of the quote and decorative vine stitching.

A close-up of the top left corner of the quilt, showing off the decorative stitching on the binding of the quilt.

What happens if a creator streams your game and is opted in? Does Twitch think it has the right to feed a developer's game into its AI slop factory? This has deeper ramifications than it seems on the surface.

They're just hanging out in my brain now.

A drawing of Jax from The Amazing Digital Circus, dressed in their maid outfit from episode 5. Jax is tugging the front chest window of the maid outfit open while remarking, "Can you believe it? This thing's even got a little chest window goin' on and everything."

A short comic continuing from the previous drawing, wherein Jax stares at the viewer and says, "I sure hope that this doesn't AWAKEN ANYTHING in anyone" before staring at themselves in a silent pause and then blushing while looking down at themselves.

I know this is not the biggest concern going these days, but it stresses me out that basically every artist/writer/critic is now expected to create their own tiny empire instead of getting paid by any existing entity to perform a job they've worked to get good at!!!!

it's worse when that's the the direct appeal for those who use gAI gleefully. they say it in so many words, to the faces of writers, concept artists, QA people, etc. "you're obsolete" "can't wait for you to be homeless" "finally no one needs you" it's not implication or conjecture. it's explicit.

Earth Day reminder that Trump’s EPA rolled back regulations governing clean air, water, wildlife, and toxic chemicals. He’s pushed to open public lands to drilling and mining. And he’s gutted clean energy programs while promoting dirty fossil fuels. He’s a danger to our planet and our health.
