Frequent trans Samus problem Stupid joke that popped into my head. I'm not sorry. Uh... happy pride month? 🙏 #metroid #art

Doodle of trans Samus Aran standing in front of a urinal. She seems wholly unenthusiastic. There is an "unzip" sound effect.

"Showing your face in a place like this... has the infamous Hunter lost her mind?" "...I've been shot, strangled, impaled, infected, poisoned, devoured, and psychically assaulted. I've earned this drink. Up to you whether the credits are for my tab or your ferryman." #art #metroid

Art of Samus Aran in her Fusion-era blue vest outfit. Her hair is slightly messy, she has a bruised cut under one of her eyes, hints of greenish veins and greenish scaled spots mottle her body, and a large chest scar peeks out from under her armpit.

She's staring intently at the viewer, right hand raising a glass of some alcoholic spirit on the rocks (with a suspiciously Blue X shaped ice cube), while posturing her Paralyzer pistol on the counter between you and her with her left hand. Her left index finger is not on the trigger.

The room appears to be lit with red lighting as everything has a reddish hue shift. In the back, silhouettes of indistinguishable humanoid figures peek out from behind pillars, marveling at the situation unfolding.

Saying coding is not art is like saying architecture isn't art. Just because the end result is functional and not purely aesthetic doesn't mean it's not creative or artistic.

ended up writing an ai policy page since apparently the rule saying "no llms" isn't enough tcrf.net/The_Cutting_... (there's more on the page itself, but this is enough to get the point across)

The Cutting Room Floor:AI policy

This page is intended to serve as an overall guide on The Cutting Room Floor's policy and site stance for "LLMs" and "generative AI", as an expansion to the rules. This policy also applies to our sister sites, including Data Crystal.

The simple version

1. Do not use LLMs or generative AI for content in any regard. Do not use LLMs for research, editing, writing, tooling, etc.

People may not realise that there are many many combinations of C/++ code, many nonsensical, that result in the same machine code. That's why decomp is difficult and has a significant manual element - because only humans can judge if code "makes sense".

I like how AI people think walking down a hall for no reason and shooting a single enemy is a video game, just like they think a 30% implemented knockoff of Photoshop is a threat to Photoshop because AI is magic to them. Surely the difficulty of finishing is linear and exactly the same as starting?

I usually design my business cards to be conversation-starters. But at after too many endless awkward discussions at recent events, I realized I needed a new type of card. The conversation-ender.

A stack of business cards reads in English and Korean: Generative AI is unethical, annoying, and anti-art. Anything it touches will fail, and be a mark of shame on human history. I do not wish to discuss this further.

Canada is refusing to issue ISBNs to books primarily generated with AI. This illustrates both the urgency of the problem of the growing flood of slop books, and also the toothlessness of addressing it on the honor system without there also being consequences for lying

Use of artificial intelligence
By registering with ISBN Canada, you declare that your book was created by a human author. You may use AI tools only for limited support tasks, such as brainstorming ideas, checking grammar, or formatting your book. You must not use AI to generate the text, create the artwork, or translate the book. ISBN Canada does not issue ISBNs for works whose content is primarily generated by AI. LAC is currently reviewing its policy regarding the use of AI content creation and our guidance is subject to change.

I'm happy to publicly come forth as the JP-to-EN translator of My Journey to Her by Yūna Hirasawa. It's a great honor to be the first openly transgender & nonbinary native Japanese translator to be credited for the translation of an Eisner Award-winning manga. 😊 Please see my full statement below.

A statement from Mishima Kitan. Due to the word count restriction of the ALT text field, the ALT text is split into two parts. The second part is in the subsequent image in the thread of this post.

Statement Part 1:
"Hi, everyone. This is Mishima Kitan. Today, I'm happy to publicly come forth as the Japanese-to-English translator of My Journey to Her, an autobiographical transgender memoir, by Yūna Hirasawa. My Journey to Her won the Eisner Award for the category of Best Digital Comic in 2025. I'm very glad that this significant book has been released physically as well.

I've been using English as my second language for over thirty years now. It's a great honor to be the first openly transgender and nonbinary native Japanese translator to be credited for the translation of an Eisner Award-winning manga.

At the time of the digital release of this book in 2024, I had some personal concerns about being credited so I requested to be anonymous in the initially released edition. In March 2026, Haruko Hashimoto (the editor of the digital edition) had reached out to inform me that the book was getting a physical release and to ask if I'd like to be credited as the translator. Upon consideration, I replied, "Yes." I felt ready to be credited as the translator and I also felt that this present moment was a historically important timing to confirm the credit.

Having my own fair share of transphobic experiences and having to entirely cutting ties with my blood family in Japan at age 20 to live and transition on my own, this memoir was one of the most emotionally challenging book to translate. But, as with any work that I do, I gave my best effort."

If it works, that's pretty cool; I didn't think
would ever see this implemented (I also didn't
expect LLMs to exist).
However, this is not something you can PR
here, or anywhere. You sent me a nearly 50k
line diff, unasked for, completely LLM built, and
you somehow expect me to review it. There is
SO MUCH unrelated garbage here. Never
minding all of the docs and Python, you've
somehow touched basically all of the upstream
HDL, which already had MSU1 support, so idk
what in the world you're doing.
This kind of behavior is not acceptable. You are
infringing on the time and brainpower of people
by pushing "your" content that little/no of your
brainpower went into; completely unrequested.
I hope for the sake of all responsible
maintainers that you do not do such a thing
again.
Again, I think it's cool that you and your LLM
supposedly got this to work. It has no place in
my world.

If we had a federal government that wasn't firmly up the ass of Big AI, they'd make it a crime for an AI to put people in mortal danger by sending them into wilderness areas with fictional instructions. If a human kept doing this, they'd probably go to jail, even under existing laws.
