A proper pinned skeet is in order, methinks.

I'm most known as Leina, aka The North-East Recluse. I pretend to be a red panda online and blather on about videogames, mostly, but also other nerd stuff, furry stuff, and also the odd serious topic like UK politics, mental health and gender identity.

TELETEXT A-Z: F is for Dr. Facilier
Shadow-slick schemer with friends on the other side. He’s got style, spells, and a smile that says “you’re doomed… but dazzled.”

Played by the awesome Keith David and one of the best Disney Villans ever!

Seeing more and more people replying to people's skeets in a very "Twitter/X" like manner. No decency. No politeness. Insults for the sake of having an insult in the reply.

So uncalled for.

They got so caught up in whether they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.

Yeah, they're supposed to help with swollen legs. Have you been able to see your doctor?

According to the blurb it’s a video introduction, how does that achieve anything? What is its purpose? What does it do that previous resources couldn’t?

How exactly does it benefit students?

It seems the only reason for its existence is that it’s possible and that doesn’t seem like reason enough.

Working on my book reminded me of this, the first PC game I ever played. Just look at that cover; it's like something off a prog rock album.
The cover of Storm Master, an old fantasy strategy game that appeared on Amiga, Atari ST and PC (PC version pictured). The cover shows robed figures standing on a desolate landscape, looking up at a flying machine like it is their last great hope.

A very fun, harmless realization to inflict on someone is "Independence Day is just War of the Worlds." If they're not already aware, they'll make a face, but when you say "Remember? And it ends with the aliens defeated by a virus?" you'll get a GOD DAMN IT or two in your life, I swear.

School's out for summer
School's out forever
I'm bored to pieces
No more pencils, no more books
No more teachers, dirty looks
Out for summer, out 'til fall
We might not come back at all. 🎵

It does make me love the folks who go out of their way to promote real artists and reject ai.

But it's so sad to see the ugly shallow cancer of this era made manifest and the people who gleefully wallow in it.

if i really had to boil down the thing that bothers me about AI

not just the theft
the job loss
the burning of the earth.

But the people who blindly use/consume it.

AI has revealed the ugly part of society that just consumes the art and expects it and feels entitled to it.

The folks who reject

I'm just putting this up here because this month did not go off as planned. It should've been: "October starts, Halloween commissions, Halloween projects, gaming..."

Instead I was dealing w/ the pinned post, forced to pause/reschedule.

You're more than welcome to help, if not, that's fine too. ^^

Something I love that was especially precious pre-widespread internet adoption is moments where you got into some kind of important books/ movies/ music/ art in general that was otherwise unavailable from you. Like a friend who made you That One Mixtape, your random video rental one time, etc

this person posted an AI video (the reporter has three arms, for a start) and then turned off comments when people pointed it out, so i have to insist everybody block them. block this account right now and i'll give you a thumbs up in your mind

Seems like they are going after reporters who are women. They hit one w/pepper spray ammo in her car, the WGN reporter and now this.

This is what I mean when I say, when it comes to political positions, most ppl just run on vibes. 100% feelings-before-facts. Japan is screaming towards a population crash at 1,000 MPH, it's not reversible at this point. But you have political parties agitating to return to hermit kingdom status.

Japan’s far right is on the rise, alarming foreign workers. Nowhere is that anxiety more apparent than in the city of Toyota, where immigrants power the economy while facing political backlash.
