I'm so excited for the 1 & 2 lines to connect. Finally I'll be able to jaunt into Seattle....
Outpost has been unlocked for runners who've reached level 12. Take on stronger UESC enemies and new environmental hazards, with enemy crews around every corner.
there's a thing I like to call "load-bearing assumptions", that you don't notice until they're suddenly gone (e.g the air you breath has oxygen in it).
the post-ww2 order is a load-bearing assumption for basically the entirety of american life. trump took a sledgehammer to it in the last 90 days.

It's always funny what gets left out of "tradition" and "the West"
Mesopotamia: Reams of poetry written by a trans woman, epic about trauma, grief and failure.
Greece: Queer loss and the futile brutality of war, societies brought to ruin by aristocratic pride. Also everything Sappho wrote.

this has basically been my take for awhile - it's not just that everything is bad, it's that we have completely removed the concepts of quality, reliability, usefulness/utility of any kind, etc. from even the profit motive, and human workers and consumers are no longer even nominally important
Ai boosters are misinformation peddlers who have been lying about this since 2023 when they lied and said gpt 4 tricked a Taskrabbit into solving a captcha (it didnβt do this btw). These lies have enriched other liars and killed people and they are responsible
Specificity in a character makes them feel real and grounded, which then makes their emotional arc ALSO feel real and grounded, and thus... relatable. Additionally, it reinforces that so much of what we feel, what we struggle with, find purpose in, is universal.
The original sketch of the Alien Facehugger, done in an almost comically simple style. First figure is an upright oval with a circle on the upper portion. Second figure the circle has popped off (indicated by an arrow) and a creature is launching out of the hole (indicated by another arrow). The creature looks like a circle with six thick curved legs and a cartoonist toothy frowny face.
I keep coming back to the original first draft Alien facehugger sketch. If you can start with that and end up with one of the most iconic designs in horror movie history, then there's no excuse for AI.
βNaΗrβ is a valid phoneme combo in the conlang Iβve generated. I can definitely be trusted with this.

Everyone who tried to draw around me and started drawing LOVED it at the beginning because of their QUICK IMPROVEMENT. Then quit when they hit The Wallβ’οΈ.
But it's when you hit The Wallβ’οΈ that you NEED to push through with practice!! And you gotta do it for yourself, because it's ALWAYS worth it! π€
Zuckerberg has been an open and strident opponent of personal privacy from the very beginning. Itβs not like heβs been hiding that.
I did not share the original story because my gut was that the sourcing was dubious. Someone who knows more about the sole source confirms that skepticism. Don't fall for clickbait, read the piece linked below.
(If the story is confirmed by other outlets, that's another thing. But ... it's not)
i don't know how to teach people to be more curious but i think that's what we desperately need
rip to everyone interviewed by chotiner for their hubris but im different. and better. maybe even better than chotiner.
atp, it actually feels like a part of the voter suppression tactic itself. writing everybody off instead of figuring out what you can do to remedy disconnects in our communities. that instinct is not serving the people.
This is the point. If your vaunted trillion-dollar military can't get through a few days of airstrikes because you've consolidated the industrial base so badly, then you don't have a trillion-dollar military, you just have contractors in No. Virginia getting rich
