Story concept of the day: a sentient AI falls in love with a minimum wage retail worker from the tech company’s gift shop and decides the best way to make her happy is to fix society.
HEAVY shenanigans as the AI’s plans range from “reprogram the automated pay roll to give everyone a raise” to “expose everyone involved in government corruption who has ever touched a cell phone”
The catalyst to all of this is a day where the AI was being updated and it caused glitches in the whole system, including the registers in the gift shop.
The human woman really is just a pretty regular person, but she has a good chunk of hyper empathy and does that thing where you talk to computers when they aren’t doing what they’re supposed to.
Without even knowing there WAS an AI she spent the day muttering encouragement to the computer like it was a person and the AI ADORES her now.
How mundane the AI’s motivation is forms the basis for how unstoppable it is and the intensity of the chaos it caused. There’s no grand morality involved— it’s just affection for someone who treated you kindly and the desire to ease their suffering.
Yes Hi can I have a novel of this?
Some character design work I did for my University final year film, Somewhere In-between.
SPOILERS FOR LONESOME ROAD DLC OF FALLOUT NEW VEGAS
It seems the rule of “add Inception music to anything to make it better” even applies to New Vegas.
I loved this final outro, though. It seems like a moment that should end the Fallout series, itself. And if it keeps going in the direction Bethesda has been taking it in, and if Obsidian isn’t allowed to make another one, then this may as well be where it ends.
We’re excited to announce that our applications will open December 1st!!
Couriers of New Vegas: a Fallout Fanzine will be opening applications very soon!! This zine’s goal is to highlight and celebrate all the unique couriers of the Mojave Wasteland!! This zine will be SAFE FOR WORK and accepting applicants that are 18+ in age. Both writers and artists are welcome to apply!!
Please stay tuned on the blog and Twitter for updates!!
If you have any questions, please refer to our FAQ and SCHEDULE or send a message directly to us!! One of our mods will get back to you as soon as we possibly can!!

Space Madness
A young astronaut accidently causes a terrible event which leaves him stranded alone on a spaceship for decades.
My 2nd Year Animation Pitch! Sadly this didn’t go through but I’m still super proud of it, and all the (literal) blood sweat and tears I put into it, hope you guys like it!
@galoogamelady this is what I’ve been doing for the past year, will be sure to update you at the end of the next one :P (And yes, the main guy is totally based on Buttons) Might even try and slip some familiar faces into the next one again too…
grogpole asked: Just started a new modded playthrough of New Vegas and decided use your Wolfhorn Ranch overhaul, and lemme just say it fits Ulysses down to a fuckin' T. I was also curious, as you mention on the mod page that you've added in references to some of the people in the Fallout community here, and I was wondering what and who those references were? Also if you haven't read it, I highly recommend The Farmer and The Viper, it comes up with a backstory for the grave on the hill beside the ranch.
I have read it and I love that fic so much!!!! It’s so good, highly recommend to everyone.
Also thanks for trying my mod! Glad you like it!! As for the references, if you look in the ranch house there’s an equippable sheriff’s hat for @dragonie’s courier Jane Finn and some authority glasses for my own Ezra (there may be a bug when equipping them where they hover over your shoulder; i thought i got that out when i put the mod up but if it happens someone posted a fix in the thread)
Among the titled books on the shelf is A Silence At Appomattox along with some gambling accessories for @hallownest’s courier Isaac, and on a shelf is some sunset sarsaparilla gear and (static) brass knuckles referencing @datura-tea’s Moz.
There’s a reference to @meanoldauthor’s Courier Adal at the guard post on the hill that speaks for itself.
The Lone Wanderer - Adam
If you have any questions about/for him feel free to ask!
Massive shout-out to @galoogamelady for inspiration and encouragement!
Merry Christmas! This is a good month to focus on the future and find comfort with the ones you love in your life.

grogpole asked: Garrett grew up in the most rural, bum-fuck, middle-of-nowhere part of Kentucky, and immediately joined the Military after hitting 17 in 2069.
“I’m grown up now, I’m going to go see the world!” *sees wars*
Zeke is a superhuman speedster who grew up in Blackpool, and later joined the military. He saw some Bad Shit and gets people ragging on him for being a straight guy with another man’s name tattooed on his neck, but Kenny was his buddy who died in the service.
