My previous lead fell through, so...
Does anyone in Western Washington have an electric piano with weighted keys that they no longer use and would be willing to give away?
I have a ten year old ADHD kid whose heart is set on one for Christmas but it's not in our budget this year.

Look, I'm going to make Weird Car Bluesky a thing if it kills me and takes all y'all's with it.
Anyway, here's not just a Subaru Vivio, but the retro-themed Bistro version. I suspect this is the same person who also owns a Vivio T-top in my neighborhood.

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back
Insulting to the players, insulting to the IP, insulting to the medium, the developers. And the craft itself. Fuck you executives who pushed this garbage.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is littered with AI art slop, because your $70 means nothing anymore
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is littered with AI generated artwork which makes the $70 feel like a complete rip-off.

Sorry, but if the repressed group itself has requested that a name no longer be used, this is simply not a "woke outcry."
If the brand is really this tone-deaf, it's time to move on, with a little more respect for fellow human beings above badges.
