Man its funny as shit that the game band ( @thegameband.com ), the team behind blaseball, is doing fucking LLM trash now. Lol. Clowns and Jesters for hire willing to debase themselves Blaseball really was the bluesky of internet phenomenon -- we all engaged in a way we weren't supposed to

The game uses a custom hint engine built around a local language model trained on the English dictionary. Broader clues are model-generated, while developers step in with hand-written hints as players move closer to the answer.

The studio says the artwork, interface and user experience were all made by humans. AI is helping power the conversation, not drawing the character players are meant to connect with.

After, we went to the Queens Night Market next store and got Musubi from the Hawaiian Food stand!

A cup of guava juice/drink with ice, and a plate with a flower, that has a spam musubi with spiced rice and different sauces in it, and a panko coconut crusted shrimp musubi with spicy mayo drizzle and leafy greens

WHOA, it's part two! Thanks for having me @dicefiendspod.bsky.social >:D This is going to be the 1st of many things you see me in I think people will really like Jean Doe Smith— a feral little shapeshifting gender fluid gray Ace bi weirdo teen, who is trying hard not to bite people anymore :3

A Nellseto picrew of the afformentioned Jean Doe Smith. Their entire color palette is very dull yellow, cream white, yellow-y creamy tans, and sandy browns. They have large Gray eyes, a very large toothy smile, messy fluffy Sandy gray hair that goes to the top of their neck, and covers their forehead, and they have extremely pale skin with pale clay-colored vitiligo markings. They have subtley pointed ears, and are wearing a tan creamy colored hoodie, with a skull pin on it. Their ears are pierced and they are flashing a huge grin.

2 Headed Serpent character! Florence Lambert is a WW1 era Honeypot spy who served the British on behalf of her people, not the crown. She now works with a medical org (?), & is facing down the dread of Eldritch serpent gods. Curious, struggles w trust, formal, flirty & cares for the common man

An image that says that it is the reference image for a woman named Florence, for a pulp Cthulhu game

It has a link to Krystyna Skarbek's Wikipedia page, a famous honey pot spy from world war II.

She is the inspiration and touchstone for my character.

The image shows three different images of what Krystyna Skarbek looks like, all in black and white, two of them in casual clothing, and one of them in more formal stunning pretty clothing and makeup.

Miss you blaseball Thinking about my blaseball OC i was gonna play in a ttrpg my spouse @mario-the-man.bsky.social never got to run

Art of a green frog person who plays baseball. He uses he and they pronouns, and his name is Carter Sellsword. While a frog, his tongue is more like a green sticky hand toy, and his legs are the legs of a blue jay, with the tail feathers.

He carries a metal bat with a large bookmark tied to it, and a large blue hook.

He also wears a button up shirt, red tie, and brown petticoat/suit jacket.

Other drawings show him catching the ball with his tongue, hitting the ball with the bat viewed from behind, and running while carrying his jacket.

Did art of Henohenomoheji from @clowndepot.mariogolf.info 's Tomodachi Life streams!!! I love them so much

A bunch of pieces of art of a heavy set non-binary character. They are wearing a plain t shirt with a star on it, sneakers, and black shorts.

One drawing is up their face, One is of them standing there waving, One is of them riding one of those bouncy animal children's park rides, and one is of them standing there listening to Frieren from Frieren talk to them.
She is talking about Himmel hitting a bong, and falling to transgender propaganda.

Their face is the following japanese katakana structured to be the following facial features:
he no (one eye and eyebrow) he no (another eye and eyebrow) mo (the nose) he (the mouth) ji (a wrap around the face to be the chin and a cheek mark)

A preview for @the-menu-zine.bsky.social this month... Some @hauntedtable.games triangle agency stuff :3 - one each of the ARC.

A shadowy creature reaches out from beneath a bed. It has spiraling eyes. The shadowy creature has many tentacles in addition to its hand, some of which are turning off a night light and coiling around the bed.

The bed is on a wooden frame, with a comforter blanket on it, with a bump implying something cowering under it.

Shadows surround the bed and creature, implying a dark night time scene.

A buff hispanic butch woman with scars on her face and a side shaved mullet crouches in a shirt with ripped off sleeves, fingerless gloves, sneakers, in a garden. Her side shaven mullet is red in the back, and green on the top and sides.

She is dropping seeds into a hole in the ground.

The garden is diverse, with grasses, bushes, tomatoes, succulents, trees and mushrooms.

The garden seems to be under some kind of massive dome, either a giant greeenhouse or a domed city.

A minimalistic body with no head sits with one leg crossed and one arm leaning on the arm of a chair. Above the body is red triangle with a cut out side view silhouette of a human head.
Additionally, The chair is not visibly there, but implied by the way it sits.

Its other arm holds multiple photos of similar looking headless bodies with triangle silhouettes, surrounded in hearts that are white on the top half, red on the bottom half.

We think about you every day. We talk about you often. There are always ways it can get better, as impossible it feels. They just get harder, scarier, and riskier as things get worse. I don't want to remember you mournfully. I want to joyfully remember future events we have later down the line.

playing heavily modded Darkest Dungeon to "feel Something" (im bored) thinking about writing up a comic concept for someone who gets isekai'd into a sorta modded DD position and has to care for the estate while sorta acting as an employer/summoner like black butler crossed w the FEH player

a meme screenshot edit of a modded darkest screenshot.
It reads "rule 37: there is no overkill. there is only open fire and time to reload"

the bottom left corner shows a screencap of a roster of a darkest dungeon playtrhough with 4 modded characters, including a fire emblem corrupt baron/priest character, a guilty gear back alley doctor character, a gun shooting witch character, and a mosquito/blood/vampire themed victorian woman character.

The image as a whole shows a woman (Minabelle) with black lips, purple hair, and red eyes. She is in a purple evening or mourning gown with a shawl and hat. She is holding a unfurled scroll and checking names off from it. Her back is towards you, but she looks at you.

She stands in front of a stagecoach.

Everyone: parker molloy got ran off for no reason and being trans Look inside *Sees her Comparing a suggestive furry mod to incel alt right gamergate talking points, saying they're the exact same* Hm. Almost like she's a purtitanical person implying being nsfw is the "wrong way" to be trans

The original Parker Malloy post that caused a big controversy that honestly wasn't a big deal but got a lot of bullying on the post that she screenshotted and shared.

It was a post from someone named username cipher, where they shared they made a animal crossing New horizons mod that makes Isabel slightly bustier and curvier.

Parker share the screenshot without censoring out the original poster's name, simply captioned "why"

Post where Parker Molloy reveals her actual true colors and opinions on the NSFW or suggestive content.

Includes a screenshot from a alt-right gamergate talking point, where a woman protagonist was completely modified from looking like an average/typical woman to looking like a complete blown up Barbie doll/unrealistic beauty standard makeup covered image of a woman.

That image is captioned with a post from Parker Malloy that reads zero difference between someone adding boobs to the animal crossing dog and the in cells who make posts and do mods like this. It's equally weird.

Got some of my friends @fridaytea.com tea for christmas! They've all gotten to try & they all really loved it. Taurus for a friend who likes genmaicha, sweet vengeance for a friend who likes smokey tea, and tree hurter for a friend who "wants to drink the forest floor". Happy they all loved it!

Three different teas from Friday afternoon tea.

Taurus, a genmaicha like tea that also includes nettle and ginkgo

Sweet vengence, a complicated spiced tea that is based off of roasted oolong and pine smoke black tea

Tree herder, a very herbal foresty tea that includes things such as cherry wood bark and old man beard lichen

I will never forgive the Zelda team for taking away the original art style that triforce heroes was gonna have Did you know that the triforce heroes link is the same link as The link between worlds link? The reason they chose to go with the toon style was to match other games w the multi links

Very early concept art from legend of Zelda triforce heroes, that shows link and the red and blue clothes wearing link copycats that players two and three play as, stacked as a totem.

The image reads below it, because triforce heroes features the link from a link between worlds, designers initially drew versions of him faithful to the previous game. Then producer Eiji Aonuma stepped in and insisted they use toon link. Variations based on the colors of their tunics and hats led the heroes to take on a look that while clearly link, was not quite like he had ever been seen in past titles.

An image originally from the Nintendo of America official Twitter account. It is a post about triforce heroes, for someone asked where in the timeline triforce heroes takes place

They confirmed that it takes place in the downfall timeline, specifically saying

The game takes place several years after a link between worlds and features the same hero. Certain events bring him to the kingdom of hytopia, where he dresses as he does to hide his origins. There's no telling where the other hero candidates come from, but the player character you play as is the true hylian hero from a link between worlds."

And then recommends that you go check that game out too.

I've seen people point out that it's probably actually intended to double down on Staryu and starmie being an Ultraman reference. Even in the original pokémon anime, starmie's gem flashes red when its low on energy, like ultraman's energy gem, Misty says as such (without saying "ultraman", haha)

Image that shows Ultraman doing his iconic pose with his hands on his waist on the top

And mega starmie on the bottom, doing the same pose.

@geneljumalon.bsky.social silver fucking KILLS sinestro /lightheadted

Comic scene from the Sonic x DC comic. Silver has a Green lantern ring and is currently fighting sinestro who has the yellow lantern power spirit, which is an Eldritch horror, summoned. Silver summons a cartoonish mallet incomparable size to the yellow lantern spirit, to crush sinestro.

Silver says the green lantern oath - "in darkest day, in blackest night, let those who worship evils light, beware our power Green lanterns might!", then - "What's the matter, sinestro? Scared?"

Sinestro is staring up at the hammer flabbergasted.

He still sucks btw, riddler

Fat (this is hot, i am fat) trans masc riddler in a green question mark covered suit with a green bowler hat and green thin rectangle sunglasses.

He is looking at the mad hatter and his gang, who are all in slightly kinky alice in wonderland themed garb that is all fully cream/marble colored.

He is saying "Alice in wonderland. How quaint. Ha! Yoy should've based yourselves on an actually good book, like the blood meridian or dune".

Gotham's cotume design confused as fuck. Hes reading a costume commission for a question mark print chest binder.

Have you seen Varnie.art's harley quinn, who IS a trans lady? (Her professor pyg is also a drag queen, and her riddler is a trans guy) www.instagram.com/varnie.vamp/ www.tiktok.com/@varnie.art

Cute art of harley quinn in a black red jester costume, talking to a crossdressing professor pig, who is in a bloody nurse costume with a pig mask.

Harley asks professor pig if hes one of the dolls too

He responses O m g girl no I'm just a pervert l o l

Image of Catwoman talking to harley quinn. Catwoman asks harley if shes considering getting "the surgery". Harley says "yeah...". She is imagining jerself as a cyborg with a peg leg laser eye and claw hand.

Image that says "when superbat is confirmed". On the left is joker in shock, labeled as a nonbeliever. It says "it wasn't a myth? O m g! Batman is fucking gay". On the right is harley quinn, watching superman carry off batman. It says "I'm going to fucking cum"

Art of Harley quinn. Unlike the other images, this is not a cartoon mini drawing, and full height.

She is wearing a black and red Harlequin jester costume.
It had fuzzy poms where the shirt buttons would be, as well as on the ends of her shoe toes and hat tips.
It also has a frilly collar, a black mask covering her eyes, and has a small tuff of her orangey blonde hair poking out.

Watched Amazing Digital Circus Episode 6 again Why is @gooseworx.bsky.social one of the few people who actually understands Flowey and how to write a Flowey type character well? Because this episode shows Jax is CLOSE to what Flowey is to me in character, especially since the winter clock

Screen cap from amazing digital circus episode 6, during Jax's breakdown.

Jax, who is a purple rabbit with yellow eyes, teeth, and gloves, and red overalls is glaring and grinning down at the viewer (who is looking at him through pomni's eyes).

He is captioned saying "you are my playthings"

Screen cap from amazing digital circus episode 6, during Jax's breakdown.

The scene has zoomed out more so we see jax from waist up instead of shoulder up.

Jax, who is a purple rabbit with yellow eyes, teeth, and gloves, and red overalls is now now slowly walking away from the viewer (who is now looking at him from over behind pomni's head, where we can see the top of her red and blue jester hat ).

He is turning his head back at the viewer, with a despondent/depressed look on his face, still showing his teeth as one would during a toothy exhale.

He is captioned saying "so please, just stop looking"

Image of a man in front of a old decrepid brick wall and a iron red door. He is in a black Polo shirt or t-shirt, and has two metal posts to his left and right embedded into the ground. On the posts are metal chains connected to his neck as shackles.

With everything else going on in this scene, he is exhaustedly with near closed eyes staring at a drawing tablet on the table in front of him, using it, drawing on it. It is not turned on.

Above him is the pensive emoji, a disappointed face with closed eyes looking slightly downward and a straight lone mouth.

Why should the options for them be "those who want you dead" or "those who want you ✨dead✨(others can go have ✨brunch✨)". He needs to be primaried.
