Governments across Canada are calling for the use of the Not Withstanding Clause in an effort to normalize the conversation. To make it less meaningful or shocking when its invoked. They've had a taste of veto power and legal immunity and they like it. Its our job to not let them make it normal.

Live service games need to try more satire as part of their content rotation. There seems to be some opportunity and artistic expression of resistance and belief in those moments.
It could be a news paper or poster in the world, a radio host or song playing in the background, or something blunt.

Ethics in creation is mandatory with a live service game. You cannot rug pull, bait and switch, or mislead your players. They will never trust your brand or your game again. Effectively killing your game.
Enforce your ethics on every choice and design you make.

When the government tells the young working class more sacrifices are coming after the wealthiest generation ever has hedged the housing market in their favour, monopolies controlling our services, and the 1% amassing a trillion dollars while "right sizing".
But hey working class, foot the bill.

Sure, AI could make things more productive.
That doesnt mean you need to cut your work force. It means those workers could increase their output and reduce the hours you need them to work everyday.
If you could improve your workers QOL and you choose not to, is that a moral failing?

A night at the bar: $100
Movie Night: $60 /min
Indie Game with dozens of hours of play time and replay value:
$15-25.
Doesnt make much sense.
We need to start adjusting our prices at least for inflation because smaller games need to make ridiculous amount of sales or go bust.

When someone dictates what is or isn’t art, what we shouldn't read/play, what is appropriate cultural expression, it’s not about art or safety. It’s about enforcing hierarchy and reminding us who they think is in charge.

I’d love to one day make a game so impactful it compels deep analysis. Jacob Geller’s video essays (like Art for No One & Artificial Loneliness) explore games as art and show what’s possible when we create with honesty and intention. Highly recommend giving them a watch!

Games are not strictly entertainment.
Play is not genres.
Players are not profiles.
They are empathy and connection.
Memory and experience.
Love and loss.
Safety and fear.
Sadness and joy.
Grotesque and pure.
They are art.
They are human.
Before everything else.

Fascism is in North America.
The Titanic was "unsinkable" and America was a "beacon of freedom". Well the hull has cracked and we are watching America become the enemy of freedom in real time.
Canada stood against fascism without Pearl Harbour or a without a "Deal". We always will.

There was a period of time where I was seriously considering moving the USA. The price of a mcmasion in Texas is the same as a condo in Calgary. This thought was because of Canadas affordability and housing crisis and I wanted to give my kids a home with roots.

As British soldiers were being evacuated from Dunkirk, the 1st Canadian Division was already in the UK as the only fully armed force to defend the shores.
This photo of Canadians in the Battle of Britain is displayed across from our parliament.
We fought fascism from day 1.

Looking forward to the upcoming Liberal government increasing the Housing Accelerator Fund, to the national building program using modular and preapproved home designs. I may actually be able to buy a home and make some roots in the next 2-5 years.
