Pathfinder Kingmaker & WotR are such strong titles in most aspects, but in both instances the mini-game they tacked on top of a perfectly fine RPG got on my nerves. Kingmaker’s management sim and WotR’s Heroes-of-Might&Magic-like army battles felt to me pretty rough around the edges (and ultimately tedious), especially compared to how engaging the rest of the games are. Ugh, I love-hate them sooo much.

We all know what it means when Midjourney churns out pictures that look like your art: their model got trained on your stuff. I think it’s time for Jason Allen to go full uroboros and sue Midjourney for using his art without permission.

falseknees comics aren’t necessarily structured around a big punchline. It’s often more of an animal kingdom slice of life. Here the bird on the left clearly hatched this year since they’re unaware of leaves changing color in autumn.

That’s putting it squarely.

Despite the corporate crust one has to deal with when playing a Ubisoft game, I do enjoy how hard they go on Diversity, Equity & Inclusion. The seemingly endless flow of bigoted tears that follows is priceless.

Floating-point arithmetic is important to understand at least vaguely since it’s a pretty leaky abstraction. Fortunately, we don’t need a “✨Member-only story” on Medium to get acquainted with the underlying concepts.

He’ll be so cute after a good trim 🥰
