I’m having an interesting conversation about the optics of a Canadian game studio basically loudly going ‘we can’t make a game killing racists because the Americans will get mad (bc they identify with them)’ while we’re being highly surveilled and a hair’s breadth away from…A Lot.

Now that I’ve calmed - I think the thing that actively frustrates me about the cancelled Reconstruction Era Assassin’s Creed is two fold:

1. We’ve done this “kill racists” thing before - IT WAS FREEDOM CRY

2. I miss the Revolutionary Era AssCreed games

Hell yeah

Totally normal things people confident in their product do.

UK workers at Disco Elysium studio ZA/UM have unionised - the first recognised video game union in the UK.

Familiar is a lovely read and I highly recommend it to folks who enjoy adult works.

Welp, I’m glad I paid for a PAX U badge because I apparently don’t qualify for media or content creation for the second year in a row lol

As you may have heard Youtube is being AWFUL and Shuffle Up specifically is being HIT HARD by the their latest madness.

We didn't even swear in this one! 🤷‍♂️ But...I could still use your help.

This has to stop.
Do y'all really not see what is happening?
We're gonna end up like England. Do you know what's happening there? Requiring digital IDs to get jobs. That's what they have to fight against now, because it started with the age verification law.

Hey y’all! Looking for more people to do Side Quests for @funandgamespod.bsky.social! How it works is each ep a different host talks about a game they love & why they love it for approx. 5 to 20 min. If you’re interested in doing an ep please reply below or email us at [email protected]!

I’ve always been sensitive and a crybaby and I’m too old to be embarrassed about it

I would love to join this vibe

My way of coping with all of the madness is focusing on what I can do to make my community a little bit stronger. So excuse me for all of the earnestness, but I wrote about ways we can all pitch in to support a thriving literary culture. lithub.com/how-to-be-a-...

People who have seen the way civility is weaponized can tell you, no behavior is meek enough to protect you against a govt bent on using your incivility as the excuse for raining violence upon you for daring to demand dignity.

Know this: you can never be civil enough to deserve that which you ask.

Bsky's new TOS cracks down on adult content and goes into effect on Oct 15 🚫

We want better content labels, NOT censorship. Use the feedback form to demand change

They've forgotten the only reason bsky exists is because nsfw artists, sex workers, & the trans community left twitter

#bskycensorship

Never forget that Norman Rockwell, debatably the most famous American artist to ever put brush to canvas, was not afraid to show the ugliness along with the good. Having his work/reputation sanitized and trimmed into marketable nostalgia is about American as it gets.

Dear My Phone, My Computer, My Apps, My Electronic Devices, and so forth:

Please stop asking me if I want to enable AI. Or use your janky AI tool. Or load my documents or pictures with a bunch of useless, off-putting, earth-killing AI junk. I don't want it. I SAID I don't want it. Stop offering.

Imma need some of those gizzards

pro-tip to youtubers all panicking about their views dropping:

the instant you use any variation of "i asked chatgpt" i click off your video, and probably unsubscribe if you do it again

i'm not on here to watch you read out gibberish from the liar box

I doubt I'm the only one at this point either
