Absolute madness, and basically destroys the international zine and records and indie comics mail order ecosystem in one fell swoop

Not at the top of our country's current atrocities and crimes, but god this is fucking stupid and shortsided

Not shocked at all.

A reminder that everything is political; if you think that politics won't affect you, think again.

Plans to abolish Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act could have dire consequences for games.

I heard today's #MaidDay ? Reposting these two maid Link/ butler Zelda doodles from ages ago (aka pre-plague, 2018?). I need to remake these.

Israel is literally assassinating journalists to keep the truth from getting out

"184 Palestinian journalists have been killed by Israel in the Gaza war since Oct 2023. That compares to the 18 journalists and media workers killed so far in the Russia-Ukraine war"

Headline from the associated press stating that Israel targeted and killed an Al Jazeera journalist

To echo others: that MasterCard is proactively reaching out to its advertising partners to try and blunt the impact of the pressure campaign is one of the surest signs the pressure campaign is having an effect (and after just two weeks, too!) Don't let up! Call/mail their asses!! #SaveSpeech

Ana Valens | 🔞 | Comms Open @acvalens.net · Aug 8

A source reached out to me claiming MasterCard contacted Riot Games about the ongoing Steam/itchio controversy. MasterCard is a major Riot esports sponsor. This is the message going around internally from Riot, paraphrased:

* MasterCard has asked Riot to keep an eye out for negative sentiments on official Riot streams
* Riot has asked esports content creators working with official Riot properties to watch out for any negative sentiments toward MasterCard
* Moderators have been told to look out for any unusual activity around the MasterCard issue

They’re so jealous you can write.
They’re so jealous you can draw.
They’re so jealous you can make music.

They have all the money in the world, but they’ve been driven insane because they don’t have your joy.

Chuck Wendig @chuckwendig.bsky.social · Aug 1

Writers should never modify their own prose as a reaction to what stupid fucking generative AI is doing -- that shit stole from us, and it stole poorly, incompletely, and has none of our magic and zero of our humanity, our experience, our wonder and fear, and it never ever will. Fuck AI. You do you.

Masamune/Gamehiker, someone I knew from way back in the early 00's forums, contacted me to let me know they had fully translated Junko Taguchi's 1993 manga! So for the first time in over 32 years we can now read it in English! #zelda #nintendo #lttp

Hello! It's been a while since I posted a new artwork! I was a contributor in @enchantmentzine.bsky.social and of course I signed up to make a Twilight Princess zelink piece. Zelda out of royal context is always something I love to draw!
#zelink #TwilightPrincess #tpzelink #illustration

Link and Zelda from Twilight Princess sit on a forest clearing at night. They are surrounded by fairies that cast a bright hot pink light on them.

[fanart, gargoyles]

there they are

(i couldn't decide where to put their hands so as they say, por que no los dos)

Waist-up fanart sketch of Goliath and Elisa Maza from Gargoyles. Goliath, on the left, has his wings draped over his shoulders in their resting "cape" fashion as he looks down at Elisa with a serious but tender expression. His left hand brushes her hair from her face while she looks back up at him, her own left hand resting on the fingers of his much larger right hand.

A slightly different version of the previous image, where Goliath and Elisa are drawn much closer together. Goliath's right hand is cradling Elisa's face/hair while her left hand covers it, her eyes closed and a small warm smile on her face.

Upon receiving her BAFTA award, Yoko Shimomura gave an interview to The Guardian in which she stated that Capcom's sound divisions (one per department: arcade and consumer) in the late 80s were not only composed mainly of women; they were led by women.
