There are so many youtube videos on how to make a "good magic system". Prequel Adventure violates all of those rules for a loosey-goosey vague and inconsistent system, and it's GREAT because every new spell Katia masters requires her to fulfill her arc for the chapter.

One advantage the Digimon game has over Pokemon is that instead of just giving commands, if I'm dealing with a difficult boss I can pull out a gun and shoot him

Kare Kano, by the same studio and director, would sometimes animate scenes by taping drawings of the characters to popsicle sticks and waving them in front of the camera.

Corridor Crew had a video about an animation plugin that had "AI" in the name but didn't look like generative AI, it just applied mo-cap to a model. So I looked it up out of curiosity and I don't understand how these people aren't getting sued into oblivion.

Have to take my computer into microcenter for repairs (damn you, intel i9 CPUs!) but not only does my old computer still run fine - if a little hot - but the $60 bag I carefully measure to fit my absurdly large case is exactly big enough to fit my absurdly large case! What are the odds!

I wasn't *intending* to do a study of @miakameron.bsky.social today, I was just doodling a makes-sense-in-context shitpost about the Starfinder game I was playing in at the time between turns, but I'm actually kind of happy with it. A little pencil shading goes a long way

I'm slammed at work and today has been a terrible day generally, but I still found a quick 15 minutes doodlin' time for the birthday girl #15minsketch #homestuck

As with all exciting polls, throw it in the average...but the average has been moving against Trump for a while...

@shaenon.bsky.social Apologies if you're already aware of this, but it looks like Narbonic.com is unreachable, and google preview shows it's been turned into a store.

Jon Stewart, founder of the pro-bipartisanship "Rally to Restore Sanity" and patron saint of older normie not particularly radical libs, is on tonight. Surely HE'LL be in favor of the CR to re-open the government, right?

I'm pretty sure I meant to say Trump's approval NEXT Friday, but FWIW it was 40.8% when I posted this three days ago and it's 40.2% now, per FiftyPlusOne's average.

Two weeks ago it was 41.7%.

Next Friday we'll see the effects of the flight cancellations.

Doctor Yiff Bon Jovi, a level 1 Pahtra Mystic I made for a Starfinder one-shot, doodled while watching a friend play Silksong. Looks like shit (what is "foreshortening") but it's not a TTRPG character if it doesn't look like it was drawn on a 12-year-old's math homework

Every time I see an old reaction gif I've seen before I get so mad, but I keep scrolling.

I love how like 5% of Americans went "Well, I give Trump a chance I guess" when he took office and had soured on him by day 3.

Got my first "Nutritional Assistance Going Away Day Sale" ad Which is a very dystopian sentence, but also means the imminent SNAP cutoff is starting to penetrate outside the "On bluesky ten hours a day" crowd

Finished CITY: The Animation. There was not a single second in that entire show where I could tell you with any confidence where it was going next, and even by those standards a completely bonkers finale. Incredible show.
