obsessed with this sign i saw taped up outside the bat room at the zoo yesterday. the enthusiasm, the hand-written note, the bat drawing.

ttrpg games are insane and make you insane in ways that are fundamental and irreparable. sometimes the best piece of fiction you will ever experience will happen to you and your friends over two to five years of your life. it will be your work and their work and yet somehow exist between and beyond you all. there will only be like three or five of you in the room and nobody else will ever be able to experience this in the way you did. it will be ephemeral and immediate and it will occasionally make you feel so bad you see hell. fuck. what a concept

accidentally said "invasive thoughts" instead of "intrusive thoughts" today and actually I think I'm onto something. this thought does not belong here and it is harming the local ecosystem

What game feels like "home" to you no matter when you come back to it?

Feed your dashboard by answering my question, blogger.

The original hades game no question. Maybe not the most nostalgic considering how recent it is, but definitely an emotional support game

Not that it’s news but I get so mad at how much google sucks now. When I search for a Rock Hyrax one of the first photos is an obviously AI generated image

I know this not only because the face and ears are all wrong, but also because the idiot computer gave this animal long claws when it very famously has weird little suction cup feet used to grip rocks. Here’s what a rock hyrax’s feet actually look like

I know generative AI is not generally viewed favorably on this website and I’m kind of preaching to the choir here but this really frustrates me.

Internet search results being tainted with these inaccurate animal AI photos is absolutely going to degrade our collective knowledge base. Many artists and scientific illustrators use image search engines to find reference photos, and if you didn’t know what hyrax feet look like it’d be super easy to miss that this photo is not real.

Just a good reminder to always find the source for a photo if you’re going to use it as any kind of reference! More and more “wildlife photography” out there is actually AI slop :(

In response to your tag about the term daemon being used, I think it’s probably a double meaning coding joke!

I’m also not super versed in computers but Marian Webster has a bunch of definitions!

In a literal computing sense, a ‘daemon’ is ‘a software program or process that runs in the background’. This is literally what Kinger’s interacting with- an automated but functionally subconscious aspect of Caine’s code (or maybe something else- we haven’t seen hide nor hair of the ‘better’ ai that Caine ‘killed’, presumably the true Abel).

But in a mythological sense, which I think is particularly applicable due to the obvious parallels to the Caine and Abel myth, a daemon is ‘a supernatural being whose nature is intermediate between that of a god and that of a human being’.

In the context of Caine both having been created by, and also having dominion OVER humans, this feels like a rather apt description

Obsessed with Sherlock, John, and Mariana being so intensely codependent that Sherlock and Mariana fully go on a several-hour long apartment hunt with John while ACTIVELY in the middle of the fight causing John to want to move out
