This is what happened to me. Employers across the board need to be aware of how harassment campaigns work and do better to protect their employees from them. These people should not have a platform to profit off of harassment.
Two months after firing over Charlie Kirk comments, Ghost of Yotei dev blames harassment campaign, not 'bad joke'

One of the best stories I found while I was researching my book on Suspiria was that in between shooting, Argento would go drinking in Munich with Udo Kier, Fassbinder and Bowie. So wild that Argento is the only one left now.

Did first overnight LARP. Slept 2 hours. Struggling to remember who I am and my sleep app is really disappointed in me. 10/10

Inkle is a true “every game is a must-play” dev for me and whatever this is I can’t wait to jump into it
We don't know. What we do know is the wiring diagram works. We built it, virtually, in @godotengine.org. We fed it scans of the books we found.

And the books are very, very strange. The "game" that resulted is also strange.

We're hoping people can make sense of it for us.

Late to learning about the Shaq Monroe stuff so hustling to put together a spec treatment before someone else beats me to it. This is the Mannequin meets Fight Club high concept we need

A thing not said by any of the 200M people who watched Squid game: “Eh, I wish I could get the version of this that was white dudes playing hopscotch and eating hobnobs with slippery object permanence”
psst, no one is struggling with this - we are trying to create singular things that resonate with a huge audience or resonate hugely with a specific audience. We "struggle" with how tech and VC funding has broken almost every creative economy we have. So thanks but no thanks

The First Omen was pretty gorgeous and this is a stacked cast!
Hunter Schafer, Havana Rose Liu, Sophie Wilde, Emma Corrin, Josh Hutcherson and Caleb Landry Jones will star in Arkasha Stevenson’s new horror film for A24.

The film follows a bachelor party that spirals into terror.

Watched RISKY BUSINESS with the team, picking the Director's cut ending. Still a stone cold perfect banger.

Paul Brickman deserved better!

Today is the day to tell a strange story.

The long version we'll tell later, but the short version is this. In an attic, in his late great-uncle's house, @jon.inkle.co found a locked trunk. It took twenty years to open. Last summer he did.

Inside was a wiring diagram, and a stack of books.

When I was a kid in Tanzania these guys were way scarier than crocodiles and lions
(Second only to baboons for 😱)
i missed this thread about hippos and all the science as to *why* they are terrifying murder cows the first time it was around
Additionally, hippos - despite being massive - have almost no fat on them. All of that impressive bulk is muscle.

2% body fat. Compare that to Elephants, which are around 8-10%, or rhinos, which are 10-20%.

The average human is around 20-40%, for reference.

They're *all* muscle.

If I want to watch Wicked 1 & 2 with the original movie what order should I do it in? I’ve seen this suggested as the simplest:

Wild at Heart
Wicked 1
Wicked 2

But I think mixing it up more could work?

Haven’t been able to get this out of my head, just staggering
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

Sure ACAB but chief Hodges is killing it in this conference
ICE employee among 16 men arrested in Bloomington sex trafficking sting, police say.
"When he was arrested, he said, 'I'm ICE, boys,'" Hodges said during a press conference Tuesday. "Well, unfortunately for him, we locked him up."
ICE employee among 16 men arrested in Bloomington sex trafficking sting, police say
According to Bloomington Police Chief Booker Hodges, officers started the three-day sting on Nov. 5. They used several methods to find people who were attempting to solicit a 17-year-old girl for sex.

this sounds like a great idea. luckily there are no extremely serious consequences to providing false information to the Internal Revenue Service
