UBISOFT - Call for strike

Following the disastrous announcements made by Mr. Yves Guillemot (cost-cutting plan, projects scrapped, end of remote working, etc.), the Solidaires Informatique union is calling for a strike on Thursday, January 22, in the morning.

Crazy to me whenever an artist makes the most beautifully rendered illustration you've ever seen but the subject is an anime girl from a predatory gambling gacha game

I think people underestimate how big this is. Like a city-wide strike is not something that has happened in the US for nearly 100 years
there are a bunch of big names on this list, including multiple beard award winners, and some places i never would have guessed in a hundred years (the malt shop?!) and i'm genuinely floored and delighted to see so many participants

Ubisoft restructuring sucks ass, and unfortunately the writing has been on the wall for quite some time now. Frankly I'm surprised they hadn't been canning everyone at an even more aggressive rate, given how ineptly their executive level operates.

LRT Fascinated by how the PR of Canadian politicians is often magnitudes better outside their own country than within it, probably because people still assume Canadians are the relative 'nice guys' despite us mostly being USA-lite.

Everyone is quick to celebrate a hero the moment someone presents a glimmer of that possibility. It’s worth tempering the enthusiasm by noting that Carney mentioned lowering taxes on capital gains, increasing defense spending, & mining in more places. It was Davos and he’s of Goldman Sachs pedigree.

It’s not just McBride.

I’m not sure the public realizes how deeply the 🇨🇦 + 🇺🇸 military integrated.

So if CAF are carrying out Trump’s orders on exchange - what happens if there’s a conflict between the two country’s interests?

Shader idea: depth post processing effect that makes far away items more pixellated and close-up items less pixellated (or vice versa)

In case you're a cis person wondering if using someone's proper pronouns has any impact: Virtually everyone I know who is aware of my proper pronouns has only started using them regularly only after one of their (cis) peers have started to do it.

Normalizing it among your peers has the most impact!
This may come as no surprise to a few people I know more personally, but I haven't done this formally yet so here you go:

Hey I'm nonbinary! They/them! 🥳

I love how you can sometimes tell how much direction a commissioner gave to an artist based on how much worse a commissioned piece is compared to their regular work.

Video games are like if it took 5 times longer to make and also everyone expects you to continue work on it for like three years after it comes out for no real reason

It's #PortfolioDay!

I'm not looking for work but I have a personal goal of sharing more of my non-games stuff, so I am just going to post my favourite art pieces I've made over the last few years that I really like.

Some will be never-before-seen and NSFW. Viewer discretion is advised. 🧵
