I thought I'd also mention that I've also been recomposing some songs for the game with better instrumentation and progression.

I don't want to share the whole song yet, but I'll give a little preview of two sections comparing the 2024 and 2025 versions ^^

Even just looking at the evolution of Charlotte's model for the game, I could not believe just how much she's also evolved since she was first made.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

Paul McCartne, Elton John and others signed an open letter.

Just a heads upfor nsfw artists using paypal Its probably a good idea to only take payment through Invoices anyway, basic details are fine BUT /NOTHING/ involving nsfw , furry , or fetish topics should ever go anywhere. "Single character commission" is a-okay. they dont needa know shit else ever.

Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want.
To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough,
, just so
other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it.
Gross.

And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.

It genuinely feels like they're turning it into yet another generic MMO now with stuff like tons of statuses, artificial inflation of health and damage numbers, equipment, etc. and I don't like it. It doesn't feel like Toontown anymore.

Mmm no. Nope. Nuh uh. Why are we turning it into a generic RPG now. Not a fan of this.
Maybe I gotta sit on it but as it stands, don't like it.

Trans rights are not the rights of a tiny minority, trans rights are everyone’s rights to self-determination, control of our bodies, and a society where opportunity and aesthetics are not restricted by sex assigned at birth

You should support and defend trans people because trans people are people
