"Viaje de Lady" by Remedios Varo portrays a whimsical, surreal journey through space aboard an imaginative creature that combines mechanical and organic elements. Known for her mystical and dreamlike compositions, Varo's work often explores themes of exploration and transformation in fantastical realms.

I wrote a long article about Rieko Kodama, her career at Sega, the evolution of her company, the games she worked on (including some canceled games and/or games for which she is not credited), the status of women and working conditions in the video game industry, etc.

Illustration: a portrait of Rieko Kodama with some of the games she has worked on. The dominant colors are yellow, purple and red. Counterclockwise from top left: Rieko Kodama, Alis and Lutz from Phantasy Star, Sonic in a maze, Alex Kidd and his motorbike next to Flicky on a waterfront pier, Joe Musashi and his dog near the Statue of Liberty facing a skyline, the three playable characters from Golden Axe seen from behind on the edge of a cliff, and one of the flying ships from Skies of Arcadia.

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

the reality is trump is definitely without a doubt going to try to install himself as president again in 2028 and the reason no one in the media is really saying that or taking him on when they say that is they know it’s probably over a 50% chance of it working and they want to be on his good side

Honestly it's more than a little frustrating that a prominent Israeli politician just told one of the most hawkish Israeli media publications that the United States dictates Isrseli strikes in an ongoing genocide and it is getting absolutely zero attention.

Sheryl Weikal and the colorful Parrotlegals @leftistlawyer.com · 1d

Avigdor Liberman is a member of the Knesset, by the way.

This has always been OUR genocide. Israel doesn't control us and never has. We control Israel.

He alleged that the IDF cannot carry out any strike in Gaza without American approval. Any attempt to reduce humanitarian supplies also requires American approval. He claimed that everything is being managed from an American operations room in Kiryat Gat.

Liberman said American drones are monitoring Gaza in real time, and that the IDF is operating under the command of that operations room.

What beats writers block is not treating your body like a factory. What beats writers block is healthcare. What beats writers block is gardening, & rest, & food, & companionship, & reading, & leisure, & anti-capitalism—but of course that’s not a very profitable thing to write, & won’t sell LLMs.

I have no idea if this creator has a film background, but if not, they have an incredible eye for composition. This, and their other works, would actually be a great teaching tool for an editing/boarding/cinematography class. Clever camera angles, strong posing, and easy to follow despite quick cuts

I think very often people do not realize the sheer *scale* of government, particularly the US government.

∞ Monkeys @somanymonkeys.bsky.social · 17h

There are already food banks/depositories in every district & a ton of Democrats have been doing events to support them, but if no one besides a staffer posts about it, no one knows about it.

Even with a massive support, it's not replacing $100 billion in SNAP. We need a functional government!

My friend said he wanted to make comics but he's bad at drawing so with these crude little examples I tried to explain that you don't need to be a good artist to make good art. Lighting and composition are cheat codes. People don't care about skill, they care about emotion
