My aloe that fell over a few months ago had to get chopped but I wanted to leave the stump to see if anything would grow back and sure enough, this little weirdo appears.

Whenever I see a comment like that, I always assume it's a bot.

Sailor Moon music really popped off back in the day. The Power of Love has been stuck in my head and it may be a sign that I need to watch Sailor Moon R sometime soon.

The shots aren't even that interesting! This is a screenshot from their trailer of some soldier wearing a uniform that is definitely not American or period accurate, holding a rifle in a baffling way.

Idk feels like something this terrible shouldn't be in a PBS documentary.

A horrible AI generated image of a man in a weird uniform incorrectly holding a rifle at a man with his hands behind his back.

There are quite a few images of Mennonites in Kansas, but that would require them doing actual documentary work. They even told me that their 'historians' support the images used.

I've worked with quite a few of the PBS people at various news stations, so it pisses me off even more.

After calling out my local PBS chapter for using gen AI in a documentary, they said they had to do it because of budget cuts. I'm sorry, but that's bullshit and a lazy excuse. Kinda wishing I didn't do a year long pledge.

Megabonk looks fun! I'll try it when it comes to consoles.

I love breakout style games, roguelikes, and survivor-likes, so BALL X PIT is 100% my jam.

Gov. Kelly has always been too polite, but I'm happy to see her call out the KS GOP here over those horrible texts.

After racist Kansas Young Republicans chats leak, Gov. Kelly calls out posts from state GOP

Politico exposed racist and homophobic messages sent by leaders of the Kansas Young Republicans. Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly said the state GOP modeled similar behavior in its own social media posts.

Kinda weird to see MAGA family members wishing Charlie Kirk a happy birthday when they won't even say the same to their own family.

And these are the people that pretend that "blood is thicker than water".

This movie has one of my favorite trailers! The movie is fine. I remember a few gross kills and weird green screen effects.

No, I don't want to subscribe to your publication to read a single article.

No, I don't want to download your app when I can just use the website.

No, I don't want your AI assistant to help me write a message.

A brown stinkbug! I find these dudes outside my windows all the time.

A little disappointed Witchbrook is being delayed a bit, but that's ok! Whatever it takes to get the game where they need it to be. There are tons of games to play right now anyway!

He wasn't a part of the texts. I believe he was a part of the Young Republicans at some point so it will be interesting to see if he has anything to say.

Seeing Kansas Republicans squirm after those horrible text leaks is giving me the mood boost I need today.

YouTube made some UI changes and they aren't bad or anything, but anytime that happens, my brain is confused for a bit.

Dakota @onetrueglob.bsky.social · 5d

My local PBS chapter is using generative AI for a documentary about Mennonites and it is embarrassingly bad. I know some of the people that work there and know they are good journalists but this is a glaring ethical problem.

Currently rethinking my donations.

Twinless has some painfully awkward moments that made me want to implode. Great movie!

Dakota @onetrueglob.bsky.social · 6d

Just saw Good Boy. Really liked it. A slow burn with a precipus protagonist.

Indy is the best boy!

Two matinee tickets for $25 feels crazy to me. I remember when I could get matinee tickets for $3.

Yeah, I'll probably take off too. Tbh I think I'm ready to ditch social media at this point.

Started Dragula Titans last night. What a hot mess. I love it!

Through the window, I saw a squirrel digging around my peppers. I run outside shouting, "I see you, villain! Go away!"

Then I walk back up to the house and see my neighbors on their backyard waving at me 🙃

So sad when an indie studio has to make difficult choices. Heart Machine is one of my faves and I hope the people let go are able to find work and hopefully HM finds a path forward that works for them.

Still looking forward to Possessor(s), but this is sad news HM.
