5 years to this shot taken of our tiny Blizzard team that was dismantled like nothing... We "only" handled the entirety of the global south and CIS countries. So many good and talented people in this picture that I miss oh so dearly.

You know what's insane? Believing immigrants are the reason people losing jobs, when it's a bloody AI "tool" that uses more energy than all of Romania to produce shit output.

Greed of the industry has pushed us to this. Thousands of Splash Damage, Square Enix Coatsinks and more talents are going to have to suffer because some corporate goons want to milk gaming to death, turn it into a commodity devoid of soul.

Ah, reminds me of my family
Person: Can I be vulnerable for a second?
Me: No.
Person: ...what? No?
Me: I do not consent. I don't even like you, I'm civil because you haven't yet made me DISlike you. I have no desire to carry your burdens.
Person: That's messed up. I just need to get this off my chest...
Me: No means no.

I didn't want to share this until I signed the paperwork: I'm a candidate for the Perpignan city council in the "Perpignan, Changez d'air!" list headed by Mickaël Idrac. I really hope our fellow Perpignanais will do right to get rid of our right-wing crook mayor madeinperpignan.com/municipales-...

As always, the West will dismantle itself for Israel's genocide. Now the UK is openly replacing impartial judges days before important Palestine cases wrap up, without any explanation or clarification. Any pretense of fairness in the legal system is gone.

Finally a potential good fit of a company and job interview set for next week. May the game dev deities shine their light on this one.

What a ridiculous waste of oxygen. A real roast comes from someone who knows you. It leans on timing, shared history, and tiny quirks an outsider would miss. Sure their AI can spit out insults, but it can’t roast you as it needs intent, context, and a bit of affection wrapped in smoke.
Everything about this might be the saddest thing I’ve ever seen

The so-called ceasefire has been broken more than 500 times since it was signed in both Palestine and Lebanon... But sure, we're the oppressors and terrorists.
Israel's military has bombed Beirut for the first time since June, claiming to target a Hezbollah member in the southern suburb of Dahiyeh.
It's the latest violation of a ceasefire Israel signed with Hezbollah a year ago, which Israel has broken with near-daily attacks on southern Lebanon.

EU timezone here... Woke up this morning with random facts about bamboo taming, Trump’s still spiralling about Mamdani, and my brain decided I needed all this information before coffee. Why are we doing this to ourselves people?
I have no idea... I just learned Trump is fanboying over Mamdani. What is going on?
