My stock response to the folks now saying they include “just a little AI” in their shitty games.
Buddy, if you used AI for some of it, I can only assume you used AI to do all of it. Hell, I assume you used AI to write this email.

Hardest of passes.

Ai bros hate artists because deep down they know they have no goals, no dreams, & nothing that they truly love. It’s a dark void that eats & gnaws at them so they lash out at those that have that spark. All they want is to drag you down with them to prove that it’s all hopeless

It's even worse when this turn of events completely blew the mask off of a family member or two, & that their years of seeming-complete & utter indifference was really all about them secretly seething away at you. Oh, NOW you have opinions? NOW you're engaged? Cuz I'm "cooked"? We'll see. Eat shit.

Our own President saying Iran should be allowed to just strike LA or San Diego (while his army of reprobates cheer) should be the thing that concerns me and pisses me of the most. What's actually doing it is I know this will be just one more "cuh-raazy" news item that everyone forgets inside a week.

I made a casual distinction between general public works and "socialism" yesterday, & suddenly I had dudes posting "TRUMP is a TOOL of PUTIN! WAKE UP MAGA!!" facebooky memes at me that had nothing to do with anything. I guess the inference was I was "MAGA" cuz I believe words mean real things? eh

Mike Turczyn 🇺🇦 @waywardcodex.bsky.social · 04/10/2026
Under every pundit/govt official post is just an ocean of brainless "TRUMP is BAD, he's GOTTA GO!" & it's like yeah, that's been fucking established a million times over, Susan. Oh & you posted the meme again. Very cool. And you're the first to balk whenever anything truly proactive gets suggested.

Wading into "political bluesky," one thing is abundantly clear: too many Gen X/Baby Boomers on here filled to the brim with useless slogans, platitudes, brainlessly posting empty Facebook memes, etc. who seem more interested in "The Fight™," not so much working towards a real, definitive end to it.

I mean let's be real here. I'd probably beat up AI users on the streetz. Not really, but maybe. At the very least I already know I can take them and that's enough. Bitches can't move without Claude telling them what to do

Every grubby-ass, publicly-traded company WILL be doing this. Every single one. Even if they insist they won't. The temptation to make Line Go Up is too great. Yes, they'll STILL be asking for $60-$90 per fucking unit. Yes the absolutely will.

Another day, another "I'm done with AAA." It's one the easiest decisions I've ever had to make at this point. Long-standing studios, long-standing franchises, "all dat shit ya grew up with™," etc. Completely meaningless in the face of this bullshit, that you know WILL be shat into everything.

Public works happened in the US & countless other places , decades to centuries before Marx The Dipshit's Messiah was even born. There are examples of it in Ancient Rome. Taxation-to-government spending pipeline is not Socialism.

It's still. not. ~~**Socialism**~~. Governments of any stripe doing things and projects for their people is not Socialism. It's governments, governing (facet of.)

No, public works are not inherently Socialism. "Governments doin' shit for the people governed" is not Socialism. Try again

Mike Turczyn 🇺🇦 @waywardcodex.bsky.social · 02/10/2026
Uh, no. That's what they've always been. Public works and infrastructure that somehow "miraculously" came into being under Capitalism, and worked for decades.

So much of this GenAI Slop era has felt like "Peaked In Grade School: Strikes Back," so when I saw a flood of "far more 40-somethings then young people, embrace AI" posts over on X this week, I'm just like "well yeah." It's all the dipshits you haven't thought about since 12th grade (30+ years ago)

Just went through and deleted all gamedev/asset posts from here (was more than I thought.) Can't just have this stuff sitting out freely anymore when any dipshit using AI can riff a shitty vibecoded mobile game off of a screenshot. So what could possibly be the solution to this problem we all face?

Studios will cut corners HARD, using the slop machine, eventually not pay a single person to do this stuff... and still tell you that it's not only a moral imperative but a Sign From God that you should still be made to pay $70-$90 for a game. Better to just shun AAA/publicly traded "indie" atp.
