I guess this has probably already gone viral somewhere but I am simply dying at this picture of a bear that looks like it hired a photographer to do a glamour shoot

Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."

Other current lockscreen, because god yes the rotating lock screens were meant for me!
Same elf son much later post- #DragonAgeInquisition, climbing his favourite person 😂 Huge thanks again to @lettuccine.bsky.social for this one; she always does AMAZING work with my #bullavellan comm requests! 💕
An illustration set post-game with a male elf Inquisitor wrapped around The Iron Bull (climbing him like a tree lol) and also half hoisted up/supported by him on his hip. They are kissing against a backdrop of what appears to be a completed battle, with slight blood spatters on their skin and a blurred out bloodied blade in the foreground. Their outline is lit in places by the glow of a sunrise behind them, and some mist and dust is still floating around them. The Inquisitor's left hand has been replaced with a mechanical forearm modeled after Matt Rhodes' concept art for DA4 (instead of the prosthetic used in DA Veilguard), and the gem set at the back of his mechanical hand glows bright blue.

Cuban is what happens when you fundamentally don't understand what creativity is but are rich enough that you talk over creative people anyway.

Made this cute lil' trailer for Bloodlines 2 Winter Update!

Really stoked for custom difficulty. Also, they added ability to skip Fabien parts in subsequent playthroughs if you're achievement hunting like I am. ❤️

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

1. okay so the new difficulty options are more thorough than I'd imagined, and essentially equate to a new game plus

2. finally, the grink is here

As we mourn Rob Reiner, don’t skip this: he was, pretty much, personally responsible for overturning California’s Prop 8 banning same sex marriage.

Twitter was an important part of promoting my work & did it more effectively than Bluesky… but encouraging right-wing voices on here or using X wouldn’t bring that back anyway, it’s gone
We’re in an era of fragmentation/decline for “microblogging”, pick the least worst fragments & try to enjoy them

I'm not a tech bro or a journalist. Your priorities are not my priorities. Stop telling me I need to do anything other than chat about comics & telly with people who seem nice.

this field biologist does a great job highlighting the insidiousness of AI editing

these one-click AI edit buttons are incredibly appealing to many photographers, amateurs and professionals alike, and are framed as innocuous

this is worth sharing and educating people about
screenshot of a post on facebook from Alex Lamoreaux, depicting two versions of the "same" photograph of a bobcat in front of a pine plantation, one labeled original game cam photo, one labeling AI processed the markings have been altered on the AI photo, and the head changed and resized text says: Oh! A neat goose hybrid posted to ‘What’s this Bird?’ but when you zoom in on the photos the bill details have been too manipulated by AI photo editing to be accurately assessed for which species may be involved. Scroll on… A cool-looking Red-tailed Hawk that someone is wondering which subspecies it might be - right up my alley! But when you zoom in on the photos literally every feather group has been so heavily manipulated and altered by AI editing that it’s impossible to determine subspecies because the photo is essentially fake now; just a mashup of whatever AI thinks parts of a Red-tail should look like. Scroll on… WOW! That’s a remarkable trail cam photo of a Bobcat! It almost looks like a painting!… but the head looks oddly small…. hmmmm. After some prodding the original photo is produced and sure enough it had been so heavily altered by AI ‘post processing’ that the photo posted was essentially a digital mock-up with totally different proportions and fur markings. No longer the photo off the trail cam; it may as well have just been ‘created’ by AI from scratch. This stuff is killing me. My days on social media are becoming very limited. We can’t even trust simple, everyday photos of animals to be real. The wildlife community needs to quit editing with AI, and we need to start calling out photographers that are using it. Our reality is being destroyed all around us.

Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama.

Us: Across your entire career?

Reiner: In a 6 year period.

Us: That sounds-

Reiner: -Each one will be arguably the best movie in that genre.

Finally finished this after fighting with the background for hours. 🫠 Enzo is doing whatever the hell his hot mage wife wants.

digital drawing my Rook Enzo and Neve. Enzo is laying on the floor on a glowing sigil, looking happy and content with whatever his hot mage girlfriend is doing. Neve is holding the lyrium dagger in her hand and is reading a book, propably looking for some spells and enchantments to perform a ritual on her all too happy boyfriend. They are surrounded by some wisps in Neve's room.
