The best American flag is the battle flag of Tecumseh Sherman’s 23rd Corps, made from the tattered remains of Confederate banners.

“Double singles” may seem like an oxymoron, but it’s happening this Friday, people…

Does anyone actually use picas? Cause it feels like adobe was like "hey look we made a fun new unit of measurement" and then everyone collectively went back into the settings and switched it back.

This might be the coolest thing that's ever happened to me.

If you haven't listened to Salvo or their previous iteration Pain, you truly are doing yourself a disservice.

Call My Friends is so lyrically clever mixed with a sound only these guys could pull off.
I’m still new here, but I wanted to spread the word: this track, Alone In Your Bedroom, is some very good recommended listening. Melodious and joyful and hopeful, crisply produced and inspiring. linktr.ee/starlightpark

Double trucks unloads every day for 2 weeks while trying to get my game shit together when I'm not working and I'm just like
a stuffed dog is jumping over a toy train .
Alt: Grommit of Wallace and Grommit isn placing tracks in front of the moving toy train as it speeds ahead so that it doesn't derail.

The consensus I've seen about 3i Atlas thus far is "please be aliens that would be way cooler than this bullshit ass timeline"

Does it bother anyone else that CR created a game and aren't using it in their own show?

In honor of Labor Day I'd like to do some math.

I work for a major retailer that posted $178bn last quarter.

They employe 2.1 million people worldwide. Assuming all those people work 40hrs/wk 52 weeks/year. It would cost 44bn to give everyone a $10 raise.

Or roughly 1/4 of the quarterly revenue.

I finally got BG3 and it is indeed wonderful. However I am not a rogue and I apologize to the rogue community for being a fraud.

I will be returning to the tank community where I belong with Level 1 Human Fighter:

I think what gets me about the defenders of AI, and especially the militant ones, is that you are advocating for a cold, unfeeling, non-sentient technology over human beings. That's some wildly cocked worldview

Bless this deal
Every commercial font we've ever made, all zipped up in one pack. There are handwriting fonts, techno fonts, pixel art - the whole pack has a vast range of genres and vibes to choose from. Use them in game dev, books, album covers, ttrpgs, web comics etc ci.itch.io/all-fonts-pack

As a writer, it is profoundly embarrassing to me when I hear people say they write with AI or brainstorm with AI. You're robbing yourself of the creative process and using the stolen work of other authors to do so. Why would you want to be that person?

And just like that my band no longer has an account with them.
