a huge round of applause for pillow fight for masterfully crafting the secret ARG this season, and all the minigames that comprised it!

A screenshot of a Slack conversation: Joy Kreyling writes "Most delinquent thing we've ever done for pay, thank you for this" alongside a photo of her husband Conrad taking a picture of a bong under professional lighting. Sam Reich responds "AHAHAHA"

BREAKING: Silksong will be out on September 4. Two weeks from today. Really.

Often, games that take 7+ years to make are plagued by mismanagement and painful burnout. But for Silksong? Team Cherry was having a blast. They still are.

This is their story: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Why ‘Silksong’ Took Seven Years to Make

The highly anticipated indie game has been in production for so long that it’s become an internet meme

TLDR; it's in our best interest to keep up the pressure on these companies and be as VOCALLY and VISUALLY annoying as possible.

The goal for average joes like you and me at this juncture is BRAND DAMAGE. Stay loud, stay annoying, connect their effect on free expression with their brand

Asked some questions on the Reddit AMA, ACLU & Fight for the Future gave some great responses. Link in the comment below

Ana Valens here. Been covering this issue for nearly a decade, and I'm blown away at the level of visibility this problem is getting. Makes me want to cry. I never imagined we'd be talking about this kind of censorship so openly with so many allies and advocates.
Just a couple questions for you all.
1. Segueing right from what I wrote: There's been such an enormous public response to this kind of paypro censorship. Does this feel a bit unprecedented? Do you think something is shifting in the public's perception on the censorship of adult content? Of platform + paypro censorship?
2. We've seen sustained call, writing, and social media advocacy campaigns for the past couple weeks. What other steps do you believe concerned activists, organizers, and customers should take? What's next? 3. Financial censorship is very, very complicated. A lot of people are learning in real-time that purchasing a video game is more complex than "using your Visa card to take money out of your bank." But now that they know how many aspects of financial companies are, well, censorious, it seems like people want the system to change. Do you think there are potential steps to change things in the U.S.? Through the legal system, legislation, or even an executive order?
Thanks for taking the time. This means a lot.

Thanks, Ana. I am certainly excited about the breadth and depth of the response, but I'm not sure if it's entirely unprecedented. The ACLU and others led similar campaign in defense of processors' efforts to de-platform sex workers, and a related petition (also on sex workers and payment processors) garnered tens of thousands of signatures. Moreover, we have historically seen online communities like artists and gamers mobilize quickly in response to threats, as seen in recent activism around net neutrality and (for those who remember) SOPA/PIPA.
In terms of potential next steps, there are myriad existing l…

the intensity of my anger at those who would criminalize the homeless — a population literally created by the greed and callousness of the ruling class — is very hard to contain. it was you who dismantled the safety net. if you don’t like the results, put it back

This is fascism, if anyone is curious. It's not on the cusp of fascism, or floating alongside fascism, or fascism-adjacent. It's fascism.
