When ye watch a vid to learn tropes and cliches & it turns into a pitch that convinces ye to watch Frieren, and here I thought it was going to be another, just kill demons, even if the take is interesting & unique, still to completely finish Demon slayer

Another beautiful animation featuring #dinosaurs, #yutyrannus takes the show, set in the first half of the 20th century Mongolia.
Some of the tropes used are grating to me, but don't ruin the watching

When we write or draw porn or erotica, we get banned from having a bank account and our livelihoods get seized even if we give it away for free.

When billionaires steal what we've written or drawn to churn out a slop-approximate of porn, they're allowed to charge for it.

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

Listened to the pod the other day and did wonder what ye's were on about with how ye described them "Cozy games", like to me cozy would be stardew Valley among other. Get home and look, "wtf most games I'd describe cozy don't even have it."

Also HOW THE FUCK IS HORROR COZY

It's things like this that I'm pretty sure I never got round to writing my Saedra books last decade. Being on the net showed how asinine folks can be with Death of the Author
Glad I got fing over it, though now I more want to do art & yt vid than write novels xD
Maybe I'll get round to it

thiel, man, what the fuck are you talking about

He describes the plot of Watchmen, a 1986 graphic novel involving superheroes grappling with moral questions about humanity against the backdrop of impending nuclear war:

The antihero Ozymandias, the antichrist-type figure, is sort of an early-modern person. He believes this will be a timeless and eternal solution – eternal world peace. Moore is sort of a late-modern. In early modernity, you have ideal solutions, ‘perfect’ solutions to calculus. In late modernity, things are sort of probabilistic. And at some point, he asks Dr Manhattan whether the world government is going to last. And he says that ‘nothing lasts forever.’ So you embrace the antichrist and it still doesn’t work.

Thiel later finds biblical meaning in the manga One Piece, discussing how he believes it represents a future where an antichrist-like one-world government has repressed science. He believes that the hero, Monkey D Luffy, represents a Christlike figure.

In One Piece, you are set in a fantasy world, again sort of an alternate earth, but it’s 800 years into the reign of this one-world state. Which, as the story unfolds, gradually gets darker and darker. You sort of realize, in my interpretation, who runs the world and it’s something like the antichrist. There’s Luffy, a pirate who wears a red straw hat, sort of like Christ’s crown of thorns. And then towards the end of the story, transforms into a figure who resembles Christ in Revelation.

Thiel, along with a researcher and writer at Thiel Capital, explored these ideas at greater length in an essay for the religious journal First Things earlier this month.

Just a reminder, having a pet is a member of the family, no matter if ye have a Great Dane to the smallest tarantula species. They are equivalent to baby/ toddler in terms of family dynamic.
If ye don't agree and view them as anything else (property)

"There was a kind of a major story arc, where 2 and 3 really tell one big story. If I get so lucky and I make 4 and 5, 4 and 5 tell one big story. So it kind of stops for a beat after the end of 3. I don’t mean we’ll necessarily stop in production, but the story kind of stops."

Tiger sharks (genus Galeocerdo) have distinctive sideways-pointing teeth with deep serrations, so they can bite through bone, turtle shell, armored parts.

The upper & lower jaw are mirrored: they clamp on to a tough object & shake their head, slicing chunks off like a squaliform chainsaw.

A tiger shark jaw set, upper and lower, wide open, revealing teeth and jaw bones. The teeth look to be mis-oriented, facing to both sides.

Nostalgia's a weird thing ain't it, listen to a cover for a song that was used for the Mass Effect 3's trailer which made me nostalgic for then. Some way's make sense, was positive about my future, no M.S.
But at same time WHY? I was in a cult, I have many folks I care about now. I draw more now

And don't get me started on indoctrinated Americans, who try pull a gotcha with those wanting higher wages, but prices will increase. Something something, MCdonalds was forced to giving a living salary in Netherlands, prices stayed same to US.

Saedraverse, a Worldbuilding project (vtuber) @saedraverse.bsky.social · 12d

Lord I love seeing it when a business owner replies to a post saying businesses have lost the plot on prices, saying why they've had to increase things.
Like okay, ye know what hasn't increased, wages, so sucks to suck dude, something something free market.
Also this guy had 20 restaurants
