We'll look at that. I'm even MORE incentivized to donate, now

Deranged Politicians Are Trying to Ban Wearing Masks
I have a cold right now, and I needed to pick up some cough syrup to give me some relief. I wore a mask to prevent my illness from spreading to other people.
We should be normalizing this behaviour.
Do you want a summer cold? No. Me either. Wear a mask when you're sick.

An Asian MIT student asked AI to turn an image of her into a professional headshot. It made her white with lighter skin and blue eyes.
Racial bias propagating, click-baity article.
Did anyone bother to fact check this? I ran her exact photo and prompt through Playground AI and it pumped out a bad photo of an Indian woman. Are we supposed to play the raical bias card against Indian women now?
This entire article can be summarized as "Playground AI isn't very good, but that's boring news so let's dress it up as something else"

Sound Off: How many 10+ year redditors have left the site?
13 years, and honestly I thank them for the kick in the ass I needed to get off that site.
I overwrote my posts and deleted my account. I wish them luck, but Reddit has evolved into something I no longer want to be a part of.

What Game Boy game do you love that you never hear anyone talk about?
Survival Kids
It's a bit of a silly survival game that starts with you being stranded on an island. I got a kick out of it because there were a few different game endings that were dependent on the actions you took earlier in the game.

Goodnight, RIF
I paid for RiF about 10 years ago, and it's one of the best purchases I've ever made. Big shout out to the development team for their support all these years!

Neopets is promising a ‘new era’ with an improved website and fixed Flash games
I'll never get over my account getting a temporary ban because I was chatting with my sister about one of her foster cats being pregnant. Apparently "pregnant" was a problematic term. I moved over to Marapets and I actually still check into that site daily.

I just wanna have one normal weather week. No hail, no tornadoes, no fires, no extreme heat, just one normal week.

The AI boom is screwing over Gen Z | ChatGPT is commandeering the mundane tasks that young employees have relied on to advance their careers.
Reply in thread
money and profits generated by those mundane tasks are still realized, it’s just that they are no longer going to workers, but funneled straight to the top
Workers should be paid royalties for their contributions. If "the top" is able to reap the rewards indefinitely, so should the folks who built the systems.

Apparently there are too many trees on my island

The reports are lies! My paths are 4 tiles wide and forested areas are fenced off. Who's lying to you, Isabelle? Who?!

Oh no! At least you got it sorted and can make your own axes now.
I actually miss the early days. Do you regret restarting? I'm thinking about doing it now.

Gen Z is turned off by onscreen sex, wants no-mance over romance, a new study finds

That's not the only way to interpret it. I read it as "healthy AND loving AND monogamous", meaning monogamous relationships do get tons of recognition, but they're often very unhealthy relationships.

I couldn't stop thinking about your reset, and I went ahead with my own today. It does feel freeing. I think I'm going to take my time with this island and not push so hard to get everything done as soon as possible.
Thanks for the inspiration!!

I have over 4k hours in game and I had no idea! It would have been impossible to count before my island reset because I had created little tree clusters like this all over the place:

Pao was hired to do a specific job, she did it, and then she was sacrificed. She was 100% a scapegoat.
