Just a friendly reminder that AI slop has not taken over games fully yet and there are still humans making the games you enjoy. Please for the love of god dont abandon us.

my problem with gyoza is that they normally come in an order of about 6, but what I really need is 100 of them

Sadly, all the Learn Blender people were right. You couldn't pay me to go back to Maya or 3Ds Max. And I couldn't pay me either, because their license costs are insane

This feature can be disabled by going to Invoicing -> Feedback and toggling 'Collect feedback' off there (on a business account, at least)
Apparently P*ypal now asks for customer opinions on accounts sending invoices.
If you are paying an invoice to a nsfw artist, do NOT mention NSFW in any way, keep it blank even. you risk both your account and the artists.

Don't mention NSFW and don't mention the word commission as well, to be safe.
Sharing to help many. Keep going guys and be careful.

AI is replacing artists.
AI is replacing voice actors.
AI is replacing game developers and programmers.
There's no middle ground in this at all and people have the right to boycott certain games and companies for using AI slop. Stop giving companies who use AI for everything money.

"Surely there's a middle ground here?" The CEO of Helldivers 2 studio Arrowhead says people "jump to extreme takes" when debating generative AI, and that there needs to be more nuance in the discussion.

So I'm spending part of today transferring things off spotify and wow it is kind of abysmal that I either can't find my fave small artists or can't find some of my favorite older rock bands outside of Spotify in general.

Hmmm bills are tight right now so I might offer a low cost ko-fi tier commissions OR just a series of "pay what you can" commissions

If English alt text is too hard write it in your native language.
If detailed alt text is too hard to do, keep it short and simple.
You can't include every detail about your work anyways but at least give people a chance instead of leaving it blank.

ALT Text benefits everyone
Alt text helps with accessibility, identifying/explaining elements you might not get to in your posts and makes your posts/work more discoverable - Make sure to toggle it on to “require alt text” in your settings

alt text can be confusing if it's a new concept and you aren't used to writing it, it's like being the radio broadcaster for your art. you're describing the picture for people who can't see it.
it's always 'necessary' since people aren't only sometimes blind; but only a sentence or two is enough 🧵

look. call your senator. but don't forget that requiring you to do this every single time, even when it's something obviously and unambiguously evil being passed, is part of a system designed to wear us down and close off our ability to imagine a better world
