I don't really ever plan on streaming any Pokemon products.

But in the event I did, my types would undoubtedly be

Normal
Fighting
Ice

Announcing the return of the #Vtuberlocke, a Pokémon challenge made for Vtubers!

Choose three Pokemon Types that represent your Vtuber lore, and try to beat the game with only those Types! For me it'd be Dark, Ghost, and Fire~

I'm doing this with Ghoulie and we challenge all Vtubers to try it too!

1. Choose THREE Pokémon Types that represent your Vtuber lore. You can only catch Pokémon of those Types!

2. The Types of future evolutions count (you can catch Caterpie for Butterfree's Flying-Type).

3. If the starters don't have any of your chosen Types, you can take them until you find a Pokémon that does. Once you do, put your starter in the PC!

4. You can only catch ONE Pokémon per area, the FIRST Pokémon that appears of your chosen Types.

5. Mega Evolutions count! You can have ONE Pokémon whose Type doesn't match but whose Mega Evolution Type does (you can have a Charizard for Mega Charizard X's Dragon-Type).

Kirby and I share many similarities. We're both adorable, we love food, we love our friends, and we're both willing to fight and kill cosmic entities beyond the understanding of mortals.

Today's art is from @midyseacloud.bsky.social

Simirror was always my favorite helper to be when I played Kirby Super Star in my youth.

(Knuckle Joe was a close second)

I gotta be better about showing off the cool art people send me.

So starting today I'm going to post one piece of art every day until I'm out.

This was done by my beautiful gremlin @wizardmoon.bsky.social whom I love dearly.

It's got such good futuristic vibes and I love the design

Picture of whiskey wearing futuristic gloves and a floating screen with text on it.

She's wearing a cropped orange jacket with a black bra underneath

There's an adorable Gremlin plush attached to her belt

The biggest tragedy of the long distance relationship I find myself in is that @wizardmoon.bsky.social has not grabbed my ass in like 2 years cause I can't afford to travel.

At work so I can't dig in super deep. But have you tried a power uninstall using something like Revo uninstaller?

It also removes registry keys and cleans up files as it uninstalls which usually resolves issues like this.

I have a bunch of tiktoks, yt shorts, and Instagram reels setup cause I'm trying to be better at social media. My entire team deserves better from me on that front.

Show us some love by watching this bullshit from Stalker.

"This is the worst it will ever be."

These things are said to get you to believe/fear you don't have agency to resist, question & criticize.

Is genAI bad for the environment? Yes. Is it sourced from creatives unethically? Also yes. Is it used in the workplace as a pretense for firing workers? Also yes. Is it used by fascists and grifters for misinformation campaigns? Also yes.

But does it at least look good? No.

the rolling crashout of the site's CEO over moderation policies crashed headlong into discourse about being mean to AI, which pokevolved into multiple high follower black accounts being personally banned by said CEO, and an AI appview that the CEO promoted apparently belongs to a serial sex offender

Recently met artist @thesillyzilla.bsky.social who has been an absolute delight. You should consider going to their KoFi.

Look how cute the art is

Whisky stanced up in an unorthodox boxing pose with violence in her eyes. Ready to throw down at a moment's notice. Just waiting to be given a reason.

I have like 4 other techs ready to bail. It's not looking good for this place. I foresee the collapse coming. (I have for awhile but it's getting close now.)

WhiskyTK @whiskystudios.net · 3d

Found out today that they just hired a guy at my company who's making 40k more than me despite how long I've been here and how much I've done.

So once again it's time to start sending out resumes. I'm so sick of this place.

Good advice; including details in a Paypal transfer can put you and the other party at unnecessary risk. Paypal doesn't need to know /why/ you're sending money, just that you're sending money.

Leave fields blank wherever possible, and trust other people to manage their own bookkeeping 😌

This is a warning to every artists and clients using PayPal: Leave the note blank or send invoices. Apparently even saying "commission" makes them trigger happy. #SaveSpeech #StopPaypros

And continue the pressure by calling PayPal. Helpful link here: anti-censorship-campaign.carrd.co#phonescript

@Inker_comics: I JUST GOT FUCKED UP REAL BAD [shared a screenshot of his suspension from PayPal]

@MrQuessos: [quote tweeting @Inker_comics] If you are going to pay an artist via PayPal, please DO NOT include ANYTHING related to commission or nsfw in the payment description. Whether out of ignorance or innocence, you could screw up someone's job.

This digital necromancy is abominable. I'd go as far as to say it's blasphemous. It's an unimaginable indignity to the memory of the departed, and a cruel mockery to visit on their loved ones.

Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want.
To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough,
, just so
other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it.
Gross.

And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.

If only I didn't fuck with the microwave. That's really what caused the resonance cascade.

War has ravaged the lands, leaving the country a powder keg. Can one woman leading a band of friends stop the powder keg from igniting? Or will war once again come knocking on the doors of Ivalice?

I'm beginning my first playthrough of Final Fantasy Tactics NOW
