How Freeplay, one of Australia’s leading indie videogame orgs, missed out on government funding
How the group behind Parallels fell between the cracks in a grants process that primarily funds galleries and art festivals.

Btw, you can email your MP if you are angry about this police violence. Our politicians need to know how horrified we all are about this attack on our right to protest, on riot police assaulting innocent people!

I should start by saying that I have been LOVING Horizon Forbidden West, but gosh it's a shame that the only true character development we get to see from Aloy only happens in the Burning Shore DLC, which doesn't kick-in until after you finish the main game.

The internet's advertising algorithm is just so stupid.
Not only does it aggressively advertise products you already bought ("Hey, I see you just bought a fridge! Wanna buy a FRIDGE?")
But it also aggressively advertises products you WERE interested in, looked up, and decided against.

Just watched The Rip on Netflix. Imagine casting Matt Damon and Ben Affleck and still getting completely forgettable protagonists? That takes a special kind of writing skill.
Was a fun plotline, but I couldn’t care less about any of the characters.

It’s so revealing how the attempted bombing isn’t bigger news in the Australian media cycle. It’s so clear how it matters less if the attacker is white and the intended victims primarily Aboriginal. The hierarchy of racism in Australia is so transparent
