Pretty sure this goes without saying, but

Rune Fencer Illyia does not and will NEVER contain anything with genAI.

Tales of Berseria was one of the first games i got on my computer, and I was planning it to be my first youtube thing. I ended up not doing that and.. well, long story short i finally started playing it.

never played a 'Tales of' before, but i like this one. Velvet's fuckin cool as hell!

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it think poorly of the videogame company that makes their favorite shiny toy
Right on queue the fandom is already shifting to, "this is probably the studio's fault for telling him it wasn't important to sign BUT ALSO we should never trust a VA's word because they always lie and shift blame."

"Rowling will undoubtedly receive substantial royalties from the Fortnite skins… That money will likely be funneled into her hate campaign against trans people.

been very hard at work on the 6.0 version of my vtubing and vrchat avatar

and this is a very special one.

her previous upgrades have just been me making new parts and frankenstein/ship of theseusing them together.

this has resulted in a.. messy model

6.0 has *all* parts remade, together.

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality.

And trans lives are grounded in reality.

We see y'all. No matter what.

First-of-a-kind study shows encouraging data for trans kids who socially transition
Ninety-four percent of participants in a new study stood firm in their trans identity after five years, and "detransitioning" is rare.

i ended up not streaming tonight because my stomach was being a bastard

i forgot i said i would stream, or i would've posted sooner. sorry.

tomorrow for sure though. i got a UI mod for tales of berseria so i can actually know which buttons do what now.

every game needs universal UI.

pro tip to make any account unhackable:

when you get alerted that someone tried logging into your account, change your password to "password".

they already tried guessing that, so they're not gonna try it again.

i'm gonna start streaming Tales of Berseria tomorrow

i've been putting this game off for years. i was playing a bit just now to see if it'll run with my vtuber stuff.

trans kids should have access to healthcare. same as cis kids. ANYTHING that their parents and doctors think would have a positive impact. Not complicated.

music from an old show on youtube: *exists*

Don’t let CEOs quibble over how much they’re pushing for AI. Regurgitative AI is a plagiaristic poison, to use any amount of it is to use it too much.

They want the concessions, because concessions can creep. Zero tolerance is the only way to say no to it.

Anyone who supports this is an embarrassment. "Instead of typing it out they'll generate their idea"? Are you insane?

Call yourself whatever you want but you aren't creatives, that's for sure.
