I’m actually really pleased that fiction podcasts have graduated past the incredibly shoehorned in justifications why the listener is hearing the audio for example, as just one example, from a old classic. In the early seasons of the Bright sessions the listener would have to hear dialogue explaining to the listener why they are hearing the audio. In the earlier seasons of the podcast, characters would sometimes explain to the audience that they are holding a recorder for example and that’s how the listener is able to hear the audio. We never needed that and I am glad that fiction podcasts have moved away from that. #WritingTips #ShowerThought #Fiction

By @nprofile1q... > In late 2026, we now have a Persona 4 Golden mod, a Minecraft mod, a Disco Elysium mod, a Skyrim mod, a Final Fantasy 1 Pixel Remaster mod all the way up to Final Fantasy 6 (with 12 being worked on), a mod for Mario Kart Wii, and even a mod for Zelda 1 for NES. All this happened from May to October of 2026, plus many more mods I’ve not listed. All this is because of blind people taking things into our own hands, and using AI to open doors which non-disabled developers had, without thinking, firmly shut in our faces. https://devinprater.substack.com/p/ai-makes-me-happy?r=bd1s4 #AI #GameDev

New Sightless Scribbles post! Your cringe hate is dead.

Mood: Aggressively dorky and entirely unbothered.
There is a singular word I would love to ban from everywhere. It has transformed from a nice and descriptive literary word into shorthand internet speak. There is always a certain attitude that follows this word. Everyone that uses the phrase, "that's cringe," hates humans and hates authentic expression, but that hatred of https://sightlessscribbles.com/posts/your-cringe-hate-is-dead/
