Hey it's #portfolioday, I'm currently looking for work and have experience doing pixel art and animation, voxel art, and low-poly 3D, as well as art/creative direction, UI design, and game design.

Pixel art scene of two characters talking near a thatch house. The house is next to a stream with stones, cattails, and lily pads, a small wooden bridge, and a rice paddy. To the left of the house there is a basket of rice drying in the sun and laundry hanging on a clothesline next to some ferns and bamboo. On the right of the screen is a scroll with dialogue options, discussing a kidnapped lapdog and what action to take next. On the bottom left are UI elements enclosed by a sickle and a blue wooden frame, including icons of a sun, a light-bulb, a scale, a bullet, a gear, a compass, and a photograph, with flowers and grass sprouting from the bottom of the screen. Pixel art of four potion bottles and four crystals on a gray background. Potions are green, orange, purple, and pinkish-beige. Below is a green emerald, orange amber, purple amethyst, and pinkish-beige shell. A small house with a red roof sits beside a stream and waterfall, surrounded by trees, rocks, and a wooden fence in a pixel art landscape. A woman in a red witch hat leans on a table filled with magical objects, like potions, a skull, books, scrolls, and candles. Plants and other objects hang from the ceiling above.

This is also why I think organizing is so important. It's not just about building enough power to challenge the capitalist class, but also about re-building our bonds with each other that have been absolutely eviscerated by capitalist individualism and hustle culture

seriously though I watched some videos about looksmaxxing, skinnytok, and online gambling and these can all be seen as consequences of capitalist alienation and the eroding of public spaces, the trade union movement, class mobility, and solidarity under neoliberal capitalism

A computer screen displaying a conversation with an AI. The user asks the AI "Are you absolutely sure about that?" In response the AI thinks for 2 seconds and then says "Let me actually verify by looking at the source code directly". However after searching the web multiple times for the Github repository it receives only generic AI-generated responses. The phrase "Gonna throw up" is overlaid on top of the image.

Our statement concerning the decision to not grant interim pay relief to the member's fired by Rockstar. We remain confident in the strength of our case against Rockstar Games and we reiterate our firm belief that Rockstar broke the law when it summarily dismissed 31 union members.

Meta's decision to eliminate over 1,000 jobs in response to losing $70 billion in revenue is a choice, not a necessity.

Workers at Reality Labs should not be the ones who bear the brunt of reckless executive decisions, yet they're always the first to experience job cuts and financial instability.

Incredible watching liberals realizing all of a sudden that war is bad when they're talking about white people fighting white people, like it's a ridiculous idea, like fascism doesn't inevitably eat itself, like this isn't the endpoint of all imperialist expansion.

South America is home to a vibrant, talented community of game developers, responsible for creating some of the most exciting independent titles while supporting the work of studios globally. They are our colleagues, friends, family, and comrades. The concerns of workers, like video games themselves, are international, with relationships and hopes that span continents and oceans. We stand with Venezuelans against the violent transgressions on their country, and with all Latin American video game workers as they endure the imperial aggression that interferes with their communities and their craft. Our struggles are intertwined. While the US government extracts other nations' resources to serve elite economic interests, it erodes the living conditions of its people and undermines their ability to oppose it. While we urge our members in the US and Canada to call their representatives to demand an end to imperialist aggression, we cannot yield the responsibility of fighting imperialism to those most complicit in upholding it. Instead, we must organize and build lasting power alongside our union siblings in every industry to fight it ourselves.

I don’t think they’re misreading them so much as they are terrified of the implications because it means the status quo has to break. there’s no incrementalism for this. mass radicalization of this scale scares Democrats more than anything Republicans could do and I mean that literally.

Kind of feel like a lot of politicians, even in Minnesota, are misreading the implications of this moment. I feel like the past three days have been tremendously radicalizing for so many people. I have witnessed it even in my own small communities, it goes beyond just incandescent rage.

A year ago today was the start of violent, terrorizing raids in California’s rural Central Valley. Violent federal agents were hunting down farm workers like animals.

Today, they’re in the streets of Minneapolis. Our communities should not be enduring this. None of us are safe until all of us are.
We mourn the loss of every soul killed by ICE and Border Patrol. Whether immigrant or U.S. Born. On our streets. At our work. In their detention centers. From Renee Nicole Good to Jamie Alanis Garcia. Todos Presente. Lamentamos la pérdida de cada vida asesinadas por ICE y la Patrulla Fronteriza, ya sea de inmigrantes o de personas nacidas en Estados Unidos. En nuestras calles. En nuestros lugares de trabajo. Y en sus centros de detención. Desde Jaime Alanis Garcia hasta Renee Nicole Good, todos presentes.

After the killing of Ms Good, Greg Bovino of the CPB led a raid on a Minneapolis HS. An official there said: They don’t care. They’re just animals,” I’ve never seen people behave like this.”

They want you to see this and unionize less. You may be next, etc etc, the fear.
But the lesson must be: Unionize MORE. One team, one department, one studio protected? Shut down. *Every* studio protected? They can't shut them all down (without trashing the shareholder value, their only KPI).

You’re pushed on by numbers and punitive measures: pain, rejection, and unpaid bills. You can either play or you can crawl under a boat and waste away -- turn into salt or a flock of seagulls. Your enemies would love that. Or you can fight. The only way to load the dice is to keep on fighting.
