I want to blog again, but finding a good domain is always a pain... -
The Highguard situation is everything wrong with the games industry.Exactly. Anything that doesn’t directly serve the egos or desires of young, white men needs to be sufficiently OTHER to “real gaming” in order for it to be allowed to exist. Anything introducing women as a real avatar – not just a high polygon wiggling ass to stare at – is automatically a threat, because it means someone is trying to make them see the world from someone else’s point of view.

The Highguard situation is everything wrong with the games industry.A lot of gamers seem to think that everything that’s released needs to be for them, specifically, and if there’s something about a game that makes them feel like they aren’t the only person in the room, it needs to be destroyed. Even the suggestion that a game might be trying to treat women or people of colour as anything but objects must be met with violence, because otherwise it might mean having to accept a world where they’re not Player 1.

So...is there a strategy in the Trump administration admitting ahead of time out loud on multiple occasions "we intend to rig the elections"?There is a sense among MAGA folks that the 2020 election was “stolen” from them, because their guy should have won no matter what the votes were. Some of them have claimed that the election was rigged, but mostly they seem to feel like the election shouldn’t have mattered, and that Trump should have been president no matter what, because that’s what they wanted. They’re both entitled, and resentful at a world that dared to tell them to sit down.
Trump saying out loud that he intends to steal the midterms is just giving his base what they want: Revenge.

Have updated my profile because apparently my Fuck A.I. and Fuck LLMS stance * wasn't clear enough*Pteryx the Puzzle Secretary They just think you don’t understand. If you understood, you wouldn’t be against generative ML models! And since you are, you just need to be shown the light!

It's Thursday 02/12/2026. Hey, What's Going On!Oh yeah, it’s real bad out there right now. RTO mandates and a tech sector that’s shedding workers like dandruff is making things feel really scary. Plus, I get to watch the half of the company that didn’t get laid off all announce their promotions on LinkedIn, because that’s also where the small handful of jobs that I qualify for are posted.

It's Thursday 02/12/2026. Hey, What's Going On!It’s been a month since I was laid off. The first few weeks, I was too busy updating my resume and looking for new jobs to apply for to really feel the emotional impact of it all. But now the resume’s looks good, and the number of jobs out there in my field have dried up. Especially the remote ones, which are kind of necessary for me, since there are exceptionally few businesses in my city that deal with my field.

I'm creating a #pathfinder campaign featuring a community of Awakened Animals and I don't think my players are ready for how much philosophy and ethics they're about to engage in! -
Never realized Canada is the subject of a prominent conspiracy theory -
Okay, but that's worse.Accountability sinks is the whole value-prop of AI. It’s what these companies are actually paying for, and it’s why there’s so much investment here.
