if you’ve ever even quietly thought “i would just move,” now’s your chance to pony up and make that possible for not just someone but three someones.

A few Houston trans scene people I know are fundraising to leave Texas, just thought I'd boost their GFM with my platform.

Donate to help 3 trans people fleeing texas, organized by brooke caimonte

As trans creators of color, we’re always on the lookout for cool projects by fellow marginalized artists.

The Black Market Guide to Immortality offers a decadently necromantic setting based on Korean, Chinese, and Japanese mythos — and it’s made by East Asian folks!

💀 bit.ly/BlackMarketGuide 💀

ALT: A Way of Transcendence monk sits cross-legged atop a throne of red flesh that unfurls from the unzipped backs of six headless worshipers arranged in a circle underneath them, facing outward, like an organic flower in bloom. The monk is lithe and lean, the top half of their head covered in a flower-like fleshy crown with four staring eyes. Their mouth is visible and smirking. Sleek fleshy armor adorns their torso, shoulders, forearms, and legs in a dark blue color, with exposed organic flesh in a pale white shade. Six small wings unfurl from their back, forming a lotus blossom shape with staring red eyes that point in various directions. Text at the bottom reads: “The Monk. Evolution, immortality, perfection. Maeters.”

My roommates bring up me adopting a kitten every once in a while and I have to remind them every time that 2 of the 4 cats they have would never forgive me if I had a cat of my own.
And I have loyalty issues. So I simply cannot betray them.

Today marks the first day in the 55-year history of PBS and 54-year history of NPR that public media has broadcast to its audiences without federal funding. But even though lots of local outlets are at risk, PBS and NPR are still here, providing fair, accurate news coverage and will not be silenced.

This whole section really.

Finally: AI cannot do your job, but an AI salesman can 100% convince your boss to fire you and replace you with an AI that can't do your job, and when the bubble bursts, the money-hemorrhaging "foundation models" will be shut off and we'll lose the AI that can't do your job, and you will be long gone, retrained or retired or "discouraged" and out of the labor market, and no one will do your job.
AI is the asbestos we are shoveling into the walls of our society and our descendants will be digging it out for generations:

Made a tutorial on how to fill out the Monte Cook Form with little explanations on why some of the topics are listed on it. I just wanted to make something that might help people who benefit from having things laid out directly for them but might feel awkward asking directly about it #ttrpgsky
