This week's speedpaint, by itself plus with #56! I think it's a big improvement, especially with the birds (process: www.youtube.com/watch?v=V38B...) #TalienArt #GenshinImpact

Last time on IWATE, we installed Marz as the head of the colony and started a romantic relationship with her. Now, we get to find out what consequences those actions will have. See you at 7pm EST! #VTuber #VTLive #VSky #IWasATeenageExocolonist www.youtube.com/watch?v=FhLH...

Just adding on to this since the settings are slightly different on desktop discord, with a dropdown list (with only one option lol) instead of a toggle.

Desktop Discord's settings, under Data & Privacy there is a "Manage Sponsored Content" section where you can disable Real Money Gaming content.

Every time I hear about the depth and complexity of this game, which far surpasses the scale of Slay the Princess (one of my favorite games ever and is already very complicated), I fear for the devs’ sanity.. How have they not yet been driven utterly mad by their creation? Astounding..

Chat is Cooked is a small streaming toy for Twitch. The idea is that your chat turns into ingredients for a witch's cauldron. You can throw chat, integrate your stream, etc. It's free in early beta, but I'm hoping it will help me pay for my trip to OffKai 2027. stelladevt.itch.io/chat-is-cooked

Here's the official announcement of Parton's passing from her reps, along with the request that in lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library at www.imaginationlibrary.com

NASHVILLE, TN (August 25, 2026) – Global icon and humanitarian, Dolly Parton, known to the world as a beloved singer, songwriter, philanthropist, actress, playwright, and author died peacefully today in Nashville, Tennessee. She was 80 years old.

Dolly is preceded in death by her beloved husband of 59 years Carl Thomas Dean (1942 – 2025), her mother Avie Lee Caroline Owens (1923 – 2003), and father, Robert Lee Parton, Sr. (1921 – 2000).

A rhinestone life that shone bright enough for the world to see, Dolly will forever stand as an inspiration not only through her timeless music and prolific songwriting, but also her wit, warmth, and kindness that made us all feel like family. Dolly Parton’s legacy is one of love, compassion, and resilience. With a seven-decade career, she inspired multiple generations of artists and fans with her music and an unwavering commitment to making the world a better place. Her songs will continue to resonate with people of all ages, and her philanthropic work will have a lasting impact.

At Dolly’s request, a small, private service will be held for immediate family. Dolly’s fans and friends from around the world are encouraged to pay tribute to Dolly on social media by tagging @DollyParton or by leaving a message at www.dollyparton.com.

In lieu of flowers the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library at www.imaginationlibrary.com.
