Existing disability services are deeply underfunded, aggressively audited, means-tested constantly, and can be labyrinthine to even access or maintain without assistance. As someone who spent two decades as a cog in that system, concerns about fraud are overblown compared to the real existing need.
Balancing "no person with a disability should be denied accommodations" with "it's important to discourage non-disabled people from pretending to be disabled to take advantage of these accommodations" is really difficult and I don't have a great answer for what anyone should do about it.

If Stranger Things was remade today and set the same number of years ago as S1 it would be in 2003 and instead of a resurgence of a Kate Bush song it would be Hoobastank, the kids would dress up for Halloween like Neo and Trinity. No I can’t prove this is actually correct I am not going to do math.

The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them
A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

The reason why this hurts so much is because every dubbing studio in the Los Angeles area has been hit with at least one wave of layoffs or a significant reduction in the amount of contractors that have been hired.
All that devastation to our economy, for this?

We're hosting an emergency fundraiser to help fund a kidney procedure, this account is ran by someone in the US and is currently uninsured and we need support. Currently we're $14.7k away from meeting our goal and avoiding medical debt, any bit helps

Here it is! New on the Ponett Gazette: I've returned to Hazbin Hotel for a followup review! Season 2 is a marked improvement in many ways, but is it enough to outweigh the show's continued issues with its tone, themes, and politics? (Plus: I also discuss Helluva Boss) ponett.dog/blog/hazbin-...
Is redemption possible for Hazbin Hotel? Season 2 (and Helluva Boss) review
To put it mildly, I did not like the first season of Hazbin Hotel. Almost two years ago now I wrote a scathing 13,000 word review on the many issues I had with it—not just the surface level stuff peop...

This Way Madness Lies is a great game and barely anybody bought it. It should be played by more people. If everybody here on @bsky.app banded together and bought a Steam copy and played it, well, that'd be a miracle and I would be forever grateful.

can't believe it
Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

I just learned that John Carmack misgendered and deadnamed Rebecca Heineman in his "tribute" over on Twitter. He probably thinks it's okay when talking pre-transition days, but FYI, most trans people hate that. Worse, he never calls her "she," switching to "they" for recent memories. Fuck that guy.
