Announcing the Oct 29 release date yesterday was incredible. And then @bradshankar.bsky.social gave Curse of Resthaven a shoutout on @kindafunnyvids.bsky.social, a show we ADORE. Absolutely surreal. Thanks @snowbikemike.bsky.social and Brad. Check out the clip!

I honestly have never considered switching from Google Pixel phones until they sent me a "wanna celebrate destroying the lives of trans people" as a system update.

Generation defining move here as a studio that was rebranded to only produce ONE IP gets gutted and the IP handed to a different company. Execs fumbling the ball EVERYWHERE. The line has met a ceiling that can't be broken through. Solidarity to those that have to suffer and pay for incompetence.

I'm sure this foreign intervention in local democracies is going to be considered "just fine" and that we will all be told that there is no concern that an Israeli app is being used by a politician to reward voters to spread pre-written narratives supporting specific political candidates.

Don't suppose any Destiny content creator friends of mine (or friends of friends) has a big ol' folder of PNG assets they could share my way? Mainly looking for stat icons, subclass effects (buffs & debuffs), etc. Might flex my editing muscles and upload a couple build videos.

Cis allies, I'm really going to need you to step up and talk with your fellow cis people about why discussing Harry Potter in a shared space where anyone can hear you is demoralizing at best, and possibly triggering. I'm sitting this one out. I'm too tired.

JK Rowling is only posting "nice" comments about trans people now because HBO is marketing her show and Im sure someone told her she needs to dial down her hatred or it will fail If you believe her nonsense, then you're as stupid as she is I better not see any of you watching that damn wizard show

If I may speak to my fellow Guardians for a second that are returning to log into Destiny today. I have a small ask of you: Do. Not. Rush. This is the last day of the rest of our Guardian's lives. We don't need everything **now**. Let it take a few months, enjoy the journey. Savour it.💠

i'm so sick of this idea that people think faster = better. faster means immediate but inferior. it's not convenience to have something made quickly if it is really crappy, and even if it wasn't crappy, it's not as good as it can ever be if it was given the time.

Hey @destiny2team.bungie.net / @dmg04.bsky.social - appreciate D2 setiment is low and Marathon is the focus. But, in addition to the communtiy challenges going on atm, a quick win might be to allow New Land Beyond into public ownership? We don't know when the next year of content is so... please?

Reminder.
White text on black background:

Reminder that you can only "separate the art from the artist" when the revenue made by that art is ALSO separated from the artist.

The new Harry Potter series makes the wealthiest transphobe in the world richer and gives her a refreshed platform of influence to make the world a more dangerous and hate filled place for me and my community.

It does not matter to me how much this frenchise means to you. If you know my lore, you know how much it once meant to me.

Supporting JK Rowlings work sends a message that your allyship falls apart at the slightest personal sacrifice.

Decided to revisit this artwork. Left is the new version, finished today. Right is the original, done Aug 25 The original (right) took one hour to draw as I was submitting under time constraints. The redrawn version (left), I could take my time with #splatoon #splatoonfanart #inkfinityfest
A series of drawings I did, stacked vertically, red, blue and green, of Inklings and Octolings from Splatoon engaging in Turf War. The top image features an Inkling boy running forward with a Splat Bomb in his hand while an Octoling girl chases after him, set in Blackbelly Skate Park. The middle image features an Inkling femme holding a Burst Bomb and an Octoling non-binary person holding a Slosher; both are watching vigilantly as they hear a sound from far off, marked by a waveform in the background and some speed lines; the image is set in Sturgeon Shipyard. The bottom image is of an Inkling girl looking confused as she throws ink high up with her Slosher. Behind her is another Inkling of indeterminate gender with long hair firing off at something with their Splattershot. The image in question is set in Inkblot Art Academy.

Everyone rightfully points out how generative "AI" images are theft but I'm literally saying every response that google's machine summarizes at the top of search results is also theft. Those words and knowledge came from someone and is now unattributed, obfuscated, and spat out as the company's own.

Reminder that your platforms/audiences are your stage. when you see a clear grift or rage bait, showing them off to MORE people just helps the grift. Attention is what they want. When you give them your stage, it's free advertising. Your stage and time are precious. Don't give them to a grifter.
