Cat, three minutes after I go into a room with the door closed: "oh no, he's gone! Maybe he's DEAD!? MAYBE HE'S NEVER COMING BACK?!?!"

Cat, after I open the door because she's crying outside and give her pets for ten seconds: "jeez dad you're smothering me, ugh" (stalks away).

The people that own that are usually a lot more stable and well-adjusted than the people who are obviously trying to repress it.

Remember when being a nazi was something you had to keep secret? Those were the days...

On the case! 🫡 (heads out in search of a fascist to annoy)

The RPG community contains some of the most lovely and most toxic people. Engage enthusiastically, but with caution 😅

I have a theory that you could change history massively for the better if you just went back in time to a few crucial moments and told someone "you're fine, being (sex/gender thing) is okay and nothing to feel bad about".

"We recommend giving us even more personal data in exchange for us maybe not showing you literally Nazi ads. No promises though."

Me: Wondering why the app keyboard suddenly broke.

App dev: Claude wrote 99% of the code!

Me: ...never mind.

But on the other hand, it hurts their feelings when we're mean about their planet-boiling nightmare machine!

🤣 Who won?

It's a vorpal sword, so I felt it needed a creepy paint job. Really happy with the effect from the black base and leadbelcher drybrushing on the blade! 🙂

This was made as a special request for my daughter, but I will definitely need to make more- I've got the bug!

Okay that's magnificent 🤣

Opened this on my phone to see the new cursor, then stared at the page as realisation slowly dawned...

Yup it's Monday morning 😑

What strikes me is that, for all the people claiming AI is about "accessibility", no one's making anything interesting with it. It's not like these people had this amazing idea that they just needed some help bringing to life. It's just bland crap all the way down.

A tiny carved wooden sword, on top of a closed pocket knife, which is in turn on top of a little dish of wood shavings.

Obviously I can't just sit still and listen to the GM without fiddling with something on my desk, so here's my interpretation of our fighter's greatsword from our latest D&D session.

This raises concerning questions about Dippy. Was he always a skeleton or did someone just forget to feed him???

...are these idiots about to do something useful by figuring out how to desalinate water at scale?

And then they'll probably patent it.

One day I realised that most of my opinions actually have negative value, because A. I don't know shit about most things and B. if I push them too hard I might talk over someone who actually knows stuff.

Honestly it's very relaxing. I don't know how these people function. It must be exhausting 🤣

Giving people fair recompense for their time, effort and skills? Are you some kind of SOCIALIST?! 😅

There's also the fact that, if a chunk of your story doesn't really land how you wanted, you can move on and try again. You only get one go at the finale!

I agree though, a good story needs an ending, scary as that may be.

A photograph of a painted polymer clay sculpture of the Curator from Clair Obscur looming out of a square, black shadow box frame. With greyish, cracked skin, he looms from the frame with a hole where his face should be. A black cape is draped around his neck and over his left shoulder. Gold edges the cracks as if attempts have been made to repair him with Kintsugi. Art by Emily Jane Foster.

The Curator offers you his services.

I'm playing Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 with my husband @drrelling.dev and decided to make a lil sculpture of the Curator in polymer clay! He's made with foil, super sculpey and acrylic paint in a shadow box frame. 🖌️🎨🎮

Be kind to your past self, even if it was only two hours ago 😅 maybe it's not exactly what you wanted but it's an important step on the journey to the art you'll be happy with!

(Spoiler warning, there may never be art you're entirely happy with but sometimes you just gotta pretend)

Save time on the things you actually enjoy so you can get back to staring at the wall or doom scrolling or whatever!

"This thing people don't want might not work out because people don't want it".

Top tier market analysis there. I can see why he gets paid the big bucks 🤣

I'm dying of laughter 🤣 this is too good

I love that shot of the mantis 😍 although it looks like it's going "hey no pictures!!"

THIS. They really don't, because not having to adapt when things get more expensive is just another luxury the rich enjoy. Let's make the most of it!!

Have I changed any minds? No. Have they changed my mind? Also no. But we're all in this clusterfuck of a world together and I feel a bit happier for it

Anyway, you don't have to do this if you don't want to. It's just an option if you'd like to try 🙂 maybe don't be too quick on that block button?

There are a lot of people on here with different opinions to you. You can strike up a conversation with them, and then if they turn out to be awful you can just stop talking to them or block them.

A few times, I've had a nice time talking to people with whom I vehemently disagree here.
