If you're using Windows 11, Microsoft is now surveilling you in a new way. This may already be turned on on your computer, and you would not be notified; it activates whenever they detect you are in a "game", which in my experience Microsoft often false-positives on

a photo of pencil sketch of Miraidon and Koraidon from Pokémon Scarlet/Violet. both of them are in their quadrupedal "bike" forms and lying down. Miraidon is loafing demurely, looking down at its prehistoric counterpart in confusion. Koraidon lies on its side with paws sprawled, head lying on Miraidon's front paws with a huge smile on its face.

Tbh I don't know of any games that I think are straight up garbage, to the point of hating with a passion. I don't really spend that much time being a big hater on a game because If I don't like it, I just don't care/post about it much tbh. I tend to instead think "This game isn't for me".

this hasn't personally happened to me, but i've seen other artists here talking about it intermittently. so here's an infographic about a handy feature i think a lot of people are overlooking! #artsky #artistsonbsky

infographic:
"whoa there, pardner!"
a fake bluesky DM i sent myself as an example says: "hi can u please not repost your own art so much. it's literally murder and oppression and hate crime that sometimes i have to scroll past things i've already seen". a displeased cowboy emoji is giving this message a thumbs down.
infographic info continues:
'round these parts we curate our own timelines! if you don't want to see a post again, open the meatball menu and click "hide post for me." now you don't have to see it and no one has to feel bad!"
(the cowboy emoji is now giving you a thumbs up. off to the side, there's a screenshot of the aforementioned menu with the relevant buttons circled in blue.)

Genuinely happy that the 7 year long development time was spent working at a leisurely pace, spending time with their families and flexing their creative muscles - with no pressure to expand their company, deliver sooner or read a single reddit post. Smartest people in our entire industry.

BREAKING: Silksong will be out on September 4. Two weeks from today. Really.

Often, games that take 7+ years to make are plagued by mismanagement and painful burnout. But for Silksong? Team Cherry was having a blast. They still are.

This is their story: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Why ‘Silksong’ Took Seven Years to Make

The highly anticipated indie game has been in production for so long that it’s become an internet meme

piracy is a morally correct choice in a world where prices increase in inverse relativity to job prospects. you deserve access to culture no matter what side of the poverty line you're on. buy a used video game console and jailbreak it, learn to torrent, install soulseek. art is for everyone

Sharing for visibility.

thewitchoftheweed posts:

We live in the dumbest, lamest cyberpunk dystopia possible.

So LA has been — and continues to — protest against ICE. These protests haven't gotten any smaller or lost any momentum, but social media wasn't reflecting it.

TikTok users, realizing that the platform/other social media are censoring/deleting/shadowbanning these protest videos, decided to find a workaround.

They're calling it the LA Music Festival. Ice detention centers and other protest locations are "stages." The hottest band is Rage Against the Machine. "Here's what gear you should be bringing to stay safe at the LA Music Festival."

And it fucking worked.

TikTok has become a proving ground for a lot of new music, meaning lots of labels and organizations have lucrative deals with TikTok to promote their new artists and music festivals. So they absolutely cannot censor the words "music festival" or train the algorithm to Ignore it, or they risk endangering that very important revenue.

So now protest videos are flooding feeds again, but it's the LA 24/7 Music Festival. Truly an incredible timeline we've landed in.

Y'all need to stop using Duolingo. Your library probably gives you free access to Mango or other language learning programs which haven't been sloppified.

I love Bowser Jr. so much. Like, an indescribable parental protective love and it's so... Real.
This is the character I will be obsessed with until the day I croak ❤️‍🔥

Assorted drawings of Bowser Jr. in various cute poses. For example, one is squishing his cheeks, another is laying on the ground, while another wields the Magic Paintbrush. The background has various emblems that relate to him.

a veevee of infinite potential!!
#pokemon
#pokemonSV

a photo of a pencil sketch, portraying three eevies in free fall, two of them reaching paws to the third. one eevee has ripped fluffy ears, messy tail and is wearing an everstone on a band around tail. it's reaching with a happy, inviting smile. another eevee is distinctly male and is sporting a cross-shaped scar above left eye. it's reaching with desperate and determined, almost demanding expression. the third eevee is falling back first, reaching up to the other two. its fluff collar is extra fluffy and curly, its ears are downturned and tail tucked between legs, and it's wearing a pair of round glasses

A friendly reminder to artists, art is like 75% rendering.
Never get hung up on things during the lineart and flats because the main things to learn are in the rendering.

"...Despite its calm and friendly demeanor, it has been witnessed to show no mercy to those who have wronged or hurt it, and will fight relentlessly until the enemy is driven away. Those who are denied a chance to escape... Their fate is worse than death."

Forgotten myths of Hisui; author unknown.

a digital sketch of an unknown Pokemon, resembling a giant maned golden serpent. it's coiled on the ground, with coils raised in a threat display. it has it's mouth wide open and hackles raised in a vicious snarl, showing long fangs. Rei, standing next to it frozen in shock, looks minuscule against its massive body, a coil as thick as he is tall.

i've been cooking up legendary borbs recently
#kirby

#digitalart

a digital sketch of Creation Trio of legendaries from Sinnoh Pokemon games (Dialga, Palkia and Giratina) as Kirby-esque puffballs. all three are wearing masks/headwear resembling the masks/headpieces of their canon designs. Dialga has long feathered wings and is holding a hammer looking like its neckpiece in Origin Forme, Palkia has short-feathered wings and is holding two shields looking like its pauldrons in Origin Forme, and Giratina has torn leathery wings and is holding a three-tailed whip looking like its wings in Origin Forme.

digital sketch of Kanto's legendary birds from Pokemon as Kirby-esque puffballs. they have the same wings they do in their canon designs, and all three wear feather-decorated circlets. Moltres has one flat horn, resembling its flame crest, Zapdos has two long thin horns resembling its spiky crest, and Articuno has three short crystal horns resembling its icy crest. all three wield magic of their respective element.

a digital sketch of Mewtwo as a Kirby-esque puffball. its looking coldly over the non-existent shoulder at the viewer. its floating with its tail hanging freely, despite its wings half-folded on the back, and its hands are disconnected, as it's conjuring a ball of dark magic.

a photo of a plush Giratina (in Origin Forme). the photo is badly taken, with it being against lit window, tilted and only Giratina's face visible awkwardly sticking out of the corner - as it Giratina itself tried taking a selfie for the first time.

I see the excitement for Eurovision is building again, a chance to bring countries together right?

Why then, is a country committing genocide and ethnic cleansing still welcomed? Are you OK with that?

You should boycott Eurovision.
