Some words about this. Note: I am not a lawyer, but I have experience on this issue for a decade+.

Discord is likely complying in advance because of legal risks of operating in the United States. That does not excuse them, and it means getting loud at them to change policy is still correct. (more)

After a long afternoon of rolling down the coastal roads. The sun begins to set and the afternoon turns to evening windows down and sunroof open the jams fitting the mood. I pull in for a recharge along the coast enjoying some sweets and the brisk evening air.

Can't believe I have to say this. Fuck AI. It isn't even real Artificial Intelligence. There's no Intelligence at all with the current "AI" and it's an insult to people working on actual machine intelligence

A six-panel comic starring TaxRaptor, a cartoon austroraptor. 
Panel 1: TaxRaptor happily holds her purse and car keys, saying "I love going out in my local area and avoiding psychic damage from the internet." 
Panel 2: TaxRaptor is driving and behind a vehicle with AI slop stickers on the back. 
Panel 3: TaxRaptor is seated at a booth in a local diner with AI slop "artwork" on the walls. 
Panel 4: TaxRaptor is walking down the street and passes by a family of hadrosaurs wearing AI slop shirts. 
Panel 5: TaxRaptor sees a pachyrhinosaurus selling at a booth, saying "Thank you for supporting local makers!" The products next to them are AI slop on cheap plastic products. 
Panel 6: TaxRaptor looks exhausted and horrified, her HP bar is showing red health.

A watercolor illustration titled β€œWhat the Creek Said” by Shimi & Critter. On the left, a small brown wren perches among green leaves. A pale blue creek winds down the center of the image, flanked by lush greenery. On the lower right, a golden-brown wolf pup with white markings bends to drink from the stream, eyes closed peacefully. The background is soft earth tones, blending into warm golds and greens.

Overlaying the artwork is a poem in typewriter-style font. The poem is about a creature walking on four feet, communing with the forest, and feeling known and held by the land and sky. It evokes themes of Therian identity, creaturely grace, and spiritual belonging. The final lines express a longing not for death but for transformationβ€”β€œto become, in this exalted creaturely state… to be held at last.”

What the Creek Said
Today I walked on four feet,
although two were enough.
The forest did not mind.
The creek was speaking 
β€”in its clear tongue,
…and I bent down,
cupped it in paw-hands,
drank what it offeredβ€”
not to survive, but remember.
I thought I heard my name,
not as the world calls meβ€”
not by word nor brazen human soundβ€”
but in the gentle shape of air,
before shame, before names,
in that hush between a leaf 
…and its falling.
I howled, just once and low,
not for sorrow, 
but to join the chorus
already going on without me.
A wren answered.
The cedar leaned closer.
And I, made of fur and salt 
…and breath,
I was fed, seen, and known.
Somewhereβ€”still farβ€”
a lamb watches the gate.
But here, right here,
the Shepherd’s hand is moss
…and lichen and sky.
I lay down beside the stone.
I do not wish to die. Not now, 
no… not just yet
β€”But simply to wait.
Not to rise, 
nor to witness,
but to become,
in this exalted 
creaturely
state.

To be held 
…at last.

So this is a question for the other dragons out there: Your hoard. Does it extend to your personal finances? I realize mine does, because some is converted to coin or physical things in my hoard, but do you have trouble spending what is converted into "cash"?

It is very important. I myself hoard books on esoteric subjects and old technology. I don't just hoard the tech in a pile but make sure it is working and functional. I like tinkering with it and of course showing it off with pride and talking all about it and...

Playing the game, the soundtrack is just... well it exists. Fuck them for doing Mick dirty, he was the force that really put life into the soundtracks of the games. 2016 continues to be a brilliant work of art musically

Not to mention body language is wildly different because dragons have access to twice as many appendages on average as humans. Pawing at the ground eagerly, lashing your tail in frustration, flaring your wings to appear larger and more threatening, bowing your head in submission.

I'm curious, does anyone know anyone who specializes in constructing custom keyboards? Including the actuation mechanisms, for individuals who can't properly or easily press down on keys.
