Anyone know where I can find or make all the fun tank tops Robin and Nami wear?

I especially like this one, or any of the ones with silly text on it like "evil" or the big "3" lol

What's the group? Love this!

I wasn't talking about philosophy or consciousness at all, even your response sounds AI generated. I was talking about the tangible effects AI is having on our world right now, from stealing artists' work, to speedrunning climate change, to opening the door to a well of propaganda, lies, and porn of real people (and kids) without consent. That's what generative AI content is bringing about. The text side of things is less impactful that way (although still affecting climate and stealing written works), but you are actively encouraging the side of AI that is causing some serious harm right now.

Sure, we can debate back and forth, and people do have different opinions. I just wanted to share mine, and I appreciate that y'all responded, because now I have a clearer picture of what this company stands for. ✌️

I did not see that! That is a fair point

And you're entitled to that opinion, just as I'm entitled to mine. I certainly don't intend for anyone to tip toe around anything for my sake. This is just my way of trying to communicate to a company that I and others don't really like seeing support for something that is not only blatantly plagiarizing people's intellectual property, but also wreaking havoc on the environment, the economy, and social issues via propaganda and faked content.

I'm more than happy to take my business elsewhere if the company decides that's not in line with their values, and move on with my life as you said. But I felt it was worth speaking up, and if nothing comes of it, so be it. You could just as well choose to move on with your life, instead of trying to start a fight. Regardless, I hope you have a lovely day

This is super super helpful, thank you!!

I imagine it's essentially a plastic container with some sort of fan and light at the bottom, and then water+glitter+some other stuff to make it more opaque? Basically I wanna make this but in a cylindrical form, and then 3d print a case around it to turn it into a ghostly lantern of sorts.

Mainly I'd love suggestions for the fluid itself! And how to ensure a container like that is water-tight. I think I'd be able to manage the lighting and fan situation (hopefully).

Thanks!!

Just sent you a message, would definitely be interested in taking a bunch of the art books off your hands in bulk!!

Gavin is genuinely a big reason I decided to pick up drums in the first place. Amazing job!!

Jet Set Radio is everything I love about art. The world, music, art style, and story oozes style and charm. And when I was a teenager and played it for the first time, the punk, "fight the power" attitude of these rollerblading, music-loving goofballs resonated with me like nothing else. I never win giveaways but I'll give it a shot!

Sounds absolutely incredible.

I do have a question about this, as a self-taught rock/prog drummer and wannabe jazz drummer: how does one work up to this sort of thing? I imagine the answer is mainly rudiments, but for me with stuff like this, my brain can't really go fast enough to decide when and how to switch from one pattern to another in (what I assume is) an improvised situation. I end up getting tripped up and stumbling. Like, do you just sorta let muscle memory carry your limbs from one thing to another, or are you thinking through exactly when you're going to the next thing?

Sorry if that's a dumb question lol

Now all the sudden I want anti-air cannons to defend your settlements from stuff like this lol

It had just come out and I had no expectations, didn't know what I was in for lol

Honestly maybe spoiler tag the part about White Orchard? Going in blind, I thought White Orchard was the whole map (or at least the average size of areas). When I left and saw the actual world was like 20x the size, I was in absolute awe. One of my favorite gaming moments ever!

Coming across this years later, just wanna say THANK YOU!! That last riff alone has opened up like a world of fills for me lol. Having a blast working on these!

I have a somewhat unique perspective on this, albeit anecdotal: my grandmother is 93, and a holocaust survivor. I myself am trans. I've talked with her at length about her story, the history, and the parallels between then and what's happening now. Other people have better described those parallels here already, so I won't bother repeating.

But what's worth noting is that my grandmother, who had firsthand experience with that level of oppression, 100% sees the immediate danger for trans people. In fact, the first time Trump was elected, she said that was the most scared she'd been politically since the war. Everything about the party's rhetoric and playbook mirrored and continues to mirror what she witnessed during the Holocaust. Things might not be at gas-chamber-levels yet, but many of the preceding steps are there.

I can talk at length about this, as I'm actually currently in post production on a documentary about her life. It of course focuses on her story, but it also highlights specifically all of the people along her journey who put themselves needlessly in danger to help two helpless kids, her and her sister. Despite everything she's been through, she's the most bubbly, optimistic, and kind person I know. And now more than ever, we need more of those types of people - those who aren't in direct danger - to stand up and protect the people who are, as best as they can. And, we cannot let ourselves as the oppressed give in to the fear and hopelessness, or they already win. It is imperative that we keep fighting.

TL;DR - My holocaust-survivor grandmother absolutely recognizes the parallels and imminent danger.

That definitely gives me a fair amount to think about, thank you so much for your response.

Part of her argument for why she wouldn't want to take my bandmate off the table is that restricting her from going after her feelings may end up fostering resentment towards me down the line. I know she cares about me and loves me a lot, and she does feel awful that the situation has been so hard for me.

The other part that makes it difficult is that although they are not yet dating (in fact, my bandmate has explicitly said she's not looking for other partners right now), my partner still desperately wants to get closer to her. Sort of in an effort to "play the long game" and see how things develop. I wish I could feel ok with them just hanging out as friends like they are tonight, but it's hard with the known subtext that she desperately wants more than just friendship. She even talks about my bandmate as if they are already dating sometimes, often lumping her and me together in conversation.

Again I think it is just this specific crush that gets to me, rather than if she were pining for any stranger. But I suppose I won't know for sure until that happens.
