every time i see someone argue for a "middle ground" on generative AI i refer back to my video on the subject
if you work backwards from 'humans use AI as a tool', you'll eventually arrive at the conclusion that any automated systems that could be conceptualized for that creative flow ALREADY EXIST

"it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed"
This.
This right here.
I'm so, SO tired of having to scrutinize any piece of art that even remotely resembles genAI slop just to determine whether or not it's worth a second thought or any admiration.

Why am I so against generative AI in games?
Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

Rebecca Heineman's last message was for people to look up her departed partner, Jennell Jaquays.
Jaquays was so influent to tabletop RPGs that "Jaquaysing" became a verb for designing complex, non-linear dungeons.
@nickoten.bsky.social wrote a great article on her:

We lost a legend.
But for her family, the gofundme is still up.

Burger Becky’s gofundme for cancer treatment is now for a funeral service.
To my knowledge we’ve not yet lost her, but she has announced that her doctors have informed her there is nothing more that can be done

Spoke to a second source familiar with what’s going on with paypro censorship toward me. It seems I’ve been blacklisted among paypros as a creator, particularly for mommy domme content. This could escalate into debanking, I learned

Anyone wondering why people are mourning the loss of Rebecca Heineman should watch this video from @stopskeletons.bsky.social. This is just a footnote in her extensive career, but it's what made me follow and donate to her cancer fund. We lost a legend today. www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxF1...

in the early 2000s Rebecca took the time to chat over IRC with a teenaged and gender-confused Me on the practicalities of transition - in a time where being out as trans online was something that could get you socially ostracized. I owe her a lot for that and only hope I can pay it forward.
My trailblazing game industry bad-ass friend Rebecca Heineman has passed away.
Fuck cancer.
Friends, let’s not forget her: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebecca...

As [extremely!] scary as this all is, this is also proof that these call campaigns matter and are having an effect
Please dont stop calling. Raise your complaints to paypros, and contact your govt reps and demand they reign in paypros discrimination against adult content
