STORM ALERT: This is my watercolor print We Grew Through Storms. I love watching storms, but I don't love being in the middle of them. Like many of us are right now. We can never predict how we are going to fare. But looking back we can say we've grown. So my hope is we will become better.

This is stunning. Listen to this in Philadelphia.
Thousands singing “Hey-Oh, we won’t be silent while our friends are gunned down.”
Really listen to it.

There's no game quite like Into the Breach for my money... Just spent 3.5 hours defeating every island and getting every achievement for a new set of Rift Walkers... Get to the very end...

Yep. Grok is incompatible with a functioning society, and I’d love to see consequences for both its creators and everyone using it for nefarious purposes.
A functional country would shut Grok down permanently. Like, immediately. Right now. Last week. Whatever. Just flip the switch. Obviously.

If you're not, listen to this.
Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder.
Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever.
It's literally never been more important.

Scientists just found out that we're all living in the second spot-the-difference picture. That stripey cushion is actually supposed to have dots on it. it's fucked up. They don't know what to do about it.

More ideas. We’re not going to run out of ideas but generative AI is a tool for people who don’t want to be involved in the step between idea and art. People whose own ideas will never evolve or become more complex because they don’t actually want to interact with or examine them.

increasingly starting to think that the endgame is to kill consumer computing so end users are driven to use centrally-operated cloud computing farms that these companies have total control over, so AI becomes inescapable

This might be a hot take, but if you don't want games to be overtaken by AI slop, you have to choose not to play games that spotlight it.
