If you wanna play a scrappy little guy as an arcane caster you are a sorcerer or a warlock because that magic *happened* to you. If you can study as a wizard *you have the money to study instead of work*, which rules out most downtrodden folks!

Best case you're a sponsored commoner with a patron.

Oh no, this client added a comment literally everywhere they accepted changes, rather than a catch-all note at the beginning of the document

This is a top to bottom wall of comment clutter, that's a fresh eyes problem for tomorrow

The overpriced merkins look like visors with fake hair attached

I guess they're good for a prank but I don't think they sold out just for pranks and now I'm wondering who's into fake hair visors

the year is 2030. a doctor solemnly informs you that you have plastic in your testicles bc millions of people persuaded by celebrity marketing bought synthetic pubic hairs that were eventually consumed by fish that you ate

Sora is a paper machete. It is low-quality, impossible to make consistent or reliable, while also being incredibly expensive to run. Every single “good” video you’ve seen is cherrypicked from dozens of terrible ones to make you feel scared that this can create entire movies’ worth of content.

Curious to hear your perspective on Sora. It seems to be the only real (and terrifying) AI product to hit the market lately. How much mileage are they going to get out of this thing that needs to be regulated out of existence?
