I apparently accidentally deleted the chat replay from the most recent vod. I tried to trim the starting soon segment to cut down the dead air, and it turns out editing it at all removes the chat history. I don't think YouTube warned this would happen. I'm honestly feeling really bummed about it.

Dear artists who moved over to Bluesky:

Please tag your work as NSFW. It won't affect you in the algorithm if you do, but it will make it so that 16 year olds (like me) don't see your dick, tits, boobies and balls all over the timeline.

Thanks and kind regards.

Current plan for the next stream is Sunday, December 28th, noon CST, as usual. I'm thinking about playing the Pokemon Legends ZA DLC.

For some reason I had been feeling weirdly self-conscious about reposting fanart, but I think I was being silly, so I'm going to start doing that more now, but maybe staggered out a little so it's not just a huge flood all at once.

In order to put to rest “did they actually use it or not”, Guillaume Broche said it a recent Q&A that they tried AI when the tech was new, but they didn’t like it, it felt wrong to them. And they will not be using it in the future.

Hey if you for some god forsaken reason still think you have an audience on Twitter, now is the time to reconsider.

Don't give uncreative fuckass grifters any chances to be let into your heart and soul.

Leave Twitter. Now.
Heads up to artists still using Twitter- Twitter is now adding an "Edit image" button under all images posted on the site that allows everyone to feed it into genAI and modify it as they wish with a prompt

I want to show some of the fanart I've seen on stream, but I don't know what the typical etiquette is. I feel like I should generally be asking for permission, but is that being too formal?

I guess if nothing else, artists can reply to this with fanart they'd be okay with me sharing on stream.

Zero tolerance is the ONLY and FITTING response to genAI being used in production of media.

Sure, you might think it's too harsh. Sure, they might've only used it for early stuff in development, etc

Listen, it's not even a SLIPPERY slope, there is NO friction at all unless we speak out against it.

tl;dr: GenAI and game design concepts traditionally referred to as "AI" (enemy behaviors, pathfinding, etc.) are not the same thing, and I'm on my knees begging people to learn the difference, lest we see more bullshit claims like what The Escapist put out re: Blue Prince.
Weird weekend, huh? Took a crack at breaking down the whole Clair Obscur genAI situation, and its bizarre fallout, as best as possible. My main takeaway right now is that people really need to figure out exactly what they're criticizing or it's going to get messy. www.polygon.com/clair-obscur...

i think if you use genai for anything, even writing an email, you're both a moron and a huge baby, and i dont want to play your video game as a result. its not that hard!
As the backlash to generative AI in video games continues to pick up steam heading into 2026, it'll be fascinating to see what is considered "made with generative AI." Can a dev team say they're not using AI if they're writing design docs with Copilot or using chatGPT to make schedules and budgets?

I would really like to join other streamers MTG commander streams (remote). Especially if you have a queer commander grp playing.
Sooo if anyone has a spot or knows someone, a DM, share etc. would be really appreciated :3

It will be a block on sight.

Already his supporters make a mockery of this situation, there’s no need to make a joke out of it. I’m not sure if people have noticed, but every day something is being done to distract from this & other, more serious matters.
dni if youre participating in that “name a fictional character you believe would appear on the epstein list” qrp chain. genuinely. that shit has real victims and countless real people who havent faced justice for it. dont bring fictional blorbos into that shit
