it's not FOR us

edited comic panel. Batman is breaking a lump-with-handle cow tool over his knee and saying "this is the tool of the cow. we do not understand it. we will not use it."

I'm thinking more about this and I think industrial music keeps re-evolving from first principles because the conditions that produced it are everywhere

Much like "crab", industrial music is constantly re-evolving from first principles basically anywhere where there's a bunch of metal and plastic laying about

it’s pretty rich to call people who are rude about chatbots bigoted when the entire AI apparatus mostly seems to revolve around creating an illusory servant class. if you think the chatbot you’re designing to kiss your ass and do your work for you is alive, what does that make you?

more shots

view of the right turret array by the entrance of the castle. several bridges capped by towers with holes for firing arrows are visible

some towers in the back behind the keep, looking up at them from the ground. they don't serve any purpose other than looking nice.

a closeup of the keep's upper exterior. it opens up into many rooms and windows visible from the outside, presumably feeling safe from enemy fire at this height

big gothic castle in quake from last year. didn't make it for any other reason than I was using it to make new textures and enjoying myself.

screenshot of a long stone bridge overshadowing a medieval town. the bridge has a gatehouse in the middle, which leads to the entrance of a castle

the entrance to the castle. tall towers and turrets are scattered everywhere, it's an insane and dysfunctional layout mostly for showing off

the implausibly large keep in the center of the castle. octogonal tower with turret towers in the corners that go up the whole length.

a higher up view of the towers at the gate, with the massive keep visible in the back
