I adore this game but when it comes to things you love you have to know when to call them out. Even if it was just placeholder stuff generative AI doesn't belong in the arts. Rather disappointed in Sandfall on this one and I support this choice.

the fact that porn basically dictates technological advancement REMAINS one of the funniest things in the world to me.
And I hope that remains true here; that the rest of the internet starts adding "Hide AI content" options (and Ideally makes them the DEFAULT)

you know it's dire when rule34 takes enough notice to actually add a whole-ass UI feature just to remove AI generated results. those guys barely ever change anything
Your biggest clue that AI is not the future is that perverts fucking hate it.
I frequent a few smut forums where people post porn art and comics all the time.
Any time I see something get massively downvoted, it is a gallery of AI slop, or someone used machine translation (MTL) with dodgy results.

Ai being pushed on us so ferociously is a reminder that companies will always sell us shit they know is bad for us with a smile. Here are some vintage ads for plastic, Cigarettes (endorsed by a Dr), and Candy as a source of healthy energy. Oh! Can't forget the magic of asbestos!

Also from the article: "Students are afraid to fail". And why is that? Its because every single student there, should they fail, has to spend THOUSANDS of dollars catching up. The us has set massive expectations, now basically requiring college,by they now cost a fortune. These are the consequences.

Naming things is hard, and Id be interested to see the "Kei" grouping split up once more, but this is probably the best breakdown Ive seen in a while.

That said, Id like to see how they defined the lines to break things up into categories.

All the worrying that trans folks have had since he took office? This is why. This is the first step on a short road that ends with the criminalization of trans existence in the US. It isn't doomsaying. It isn't panic. It's right in front of us.

The thing that sucks is that for me, its not even intended snarky comments that get to me. Many even POSITIVE comments get to me because I assume they are snark (oft due to bad self-image). This caused a downward spiral; bad self-image, tries to improve, misinterprets helpful comments, resigned 🔁.
I hate how my family did this shit. I (seemingly/undiagnosed) have executive dysfunction or something. And any time I would do anything to help around the house without being asked, I was met with snarky comments. And wow did I never want to help again. Probably why I STILL struggle to do shit today
I think about this a lot.
