Pyaari is so decent 🥺

Two drawings and two small photos of the cat, Pyaari. The drawing on the left is wearing a blue dupatta. The drawing on the right is in a gold sari with a dupatta on the head.

my biggest takeaway from this week at gamescom is that I've been made know that @femdevsmeetup.bsky.social has tangibly helped its community to get back on their feet 💚

🎨 ON A WEBSITE FAR, FAR AWAY... 🖌️

Yep, the wplace.live bug got us too. We discovered a cluster of Trigun art in Kharkiv, Ukraine, and contributed a 148x240 piece (that's 35.000+ pixels!) designed by @moltenrainbow.bsky.social that took us about a week 🌌

[ #Trigun ][ #Vashwood ][ #VW ][ #WV ]

A pixel art rendition of Nightow's Vash and Wolfwood drawing in their Stampede designs. The space background is inspired by our zine branding, including the title and tagline of our zine (Final Frontier: A Vashwood Space Zine)!

A screenshot of the artwork on the map. It's surrounded by smaller Trigun pieces, pride flags and so on.

My fear is not that higher education ceases to exist due to AI, but that actual education is once again restricted to a privileged few and everyone else gets this garbage.

Shannon Hale @shannonhale.bsky.social · Aug 21

my college kid was heartbroken when on the first day of class the professor said "I used to spend 3 weeks teaching this part, but just have AI create it for you and we'll skip it." Skipping the most creative part of the work. The part my kid most looked forward to.

Vision and Biology of Seeing is a pretty good book and answers a lot of questions like this. I'm reading it again on my camping trip this weekend.

As we all know the game industry is going through very turbulent times, unfortunately this has also affected several members of our collective. The silver lining is that one of the largest rooms in our coworking space in Berlin will be available from September 1st.

I'll be at gamescom! Participating in a panel! With @yunikorn.bsky.social moderating!! 💚

I won the NRW Award for Young Women in Games at the Deutscher Entwicklerpreis in 2022. Forever grateful, I'll discuss with the rest of the panelists what this prize means (or can mean) for future generations ⭐🎮

I love queer media so much…. Nobody tells stories like we do, so full of love and life…. No one cooks up visuals this shamelessly good and big-brained and intimate…. Keep going 🫵🏼‼️ keep creating, especially in times this rough ‼️‼️ we’ll make it to the other side together 😤🌈

Please sign this petition to oppose censorship from payment processors and extremists!

It's made and supported by female and gender-marginalised people working in games. Collective Shout does not speak for us. They can't silence us. We will continue to stand up for freedom of expression in games.
