This is a barbers shop in our local area. It’s called Boys 2 Men. The more astute of you may have noticed its location at the end of the road.

As a lifelong Wellingtonian, 1) I think it's entirely appropriate that our first wāhine Māori mayor gets a painted mayoral portrait and 2) $7000 is fuck all for a painting like this. What a bargain.

Before now, only some of the names on this list were feckless, dollar worshipping, toadying fucks you wouldn't expect anything better from, and who spent their entire careers being useful idiots.

But hey, if you're doing research on spineless amoral turds in comedy, they just saved you some time.

twitch has always allowed anyone to download your clips but they now reward them for uploading it directly to other platforms.

i'm not following this person. they have social sharing disabled. but i can upload it to yt and attribute it to them on twitch.

twitch don't own your content. you do.
A screenshot from a Twitch channel showing how anyone who isn't even following a user can download their clips in their entirety for the purpose of uploading it to other platforms without attribution.

but this is a decentralised platform... we just shut them up with the moderation tools they've given us.

oh wait.

imagine being the CEO of a brand new social media platform and clearly needing the services of a brand management team because you have no idea how you're supposed to talk to people.

Are you paying us? Where?
robotsmakegames.bsky.social
Yeah but are you PAYING for this earend?!?

Imagine going from CEO darling to getting ratiod on your own platform in the space of a month because you hate a social media platform with users on it.

translation: twitch is rewarding viewers for freebooting content as long as that content is stolen via twitch.

Twitch has launched the Social Badge system, which rewards your viewers with channel badges if they post your content on their TikTok, YouTube, or Instagram and get views on it.

Graphic design is our passion.

If it's yours too, why not grab our All Fonts Pack today? $19 for 1200 fonts for commercial use! ci.itch.io/all-fonts-pack #art #graphicdesign #webdesign #gamedev
On the left of the image is the Adobe logo, with the Creative Cloud symbol, some dollar signs and two pieces of text reading $70/month and $840/year. Underneath the word Fonts is in quote marks. The whole thing is tilted / jaunty as if to make fun of it.

On the right is a picture of our all fonts pack. The text reads: 1200 Fonts, $19, Pay once, use forever. It is clearly the better deal.

I've never been a huge tabletop games person, I will play but never seek them out - so imagine my surprise when I go to one PAX and start making my own design for a game called "Dogs with jobs" and it's all I can think about it.

What's that? That's the ADHD? Oh.
