I somehow missed this when it happened but my topic lords episode with @austinmwav.com came out at the end of September! Listen to us talk with our wonderful host Jim about assuming all your friends hate you, fast food destroying our digestive systems as soon as we turned 30, and more!

309. Shaking Ass To Music For Airports

Lords: Megan and Austin. We discussed going for very long walks, "elevated" horror, Every 5x5 Nonogram Section 303, NPC Dialog Test by Nintendo Europe, breakfast dogma, and not wanting to make shitpos...

Learned that I am being laid off from Heart Machine, and will be leaving the studio later this month.

Do you need a contractor? I've got a track record of leading scope-friendly script revisions late in dev. I have also done a lot of consulting on new IPs and pitches/demos. Feel free to DM me!

Worker owned things will have much better time existing when people will understand that “the rich/capitalists” doesn’t mean “anybody who gets paid (slightly more than me) for their work”

Aura/Moom @moomanibe.bsky.social · 2d

when I was defending itch I heard from a lot of - frankly to my shock - other queers who were like "it's a platform, platforms are the enemy" and until we're able to distinguish _as users_ the ways in which worker owned services aren't your enemy and deserve grace, we won't be seeing very many

In the interest of self-preservation I need to start reiterating: my current contract with KO_OP ends late Nov, and I'm looking for my next gig! I'm a game/narrative designer, writer, & generalist with lots of implementation experience in Unity, some in Unreal, knowledge of C#, Python, and more.

it’s pretty rich to call people who are rude about chatbots bigoted when the entire AI apparatus mostly seems to revolve around creating an illusory servant class. if you think the chatbot you’re designing to kiss your ass and do your work for you is alive, what does that make you?

If you'd like to see beestung keep buzzing, please consider dropping a few bucks our way 🖤💛🖤💛

beestung @beestung.bsky.social · 5d

We're still trying to raise $246 this year to cover expenses, if you're feeling generous.

We'll never charge a submission fee, and we pay our writers.

Your help will also ensure that we can bring on a guest editor in the new year, to avoid that whole 'monolithic voice' business 💛🖤

Thank you. 🐝

Happy non-binary day and week!

We're a small mag publishing non-binary, genderqueer, and two-spirit writers.

If you'd like to help us out, we're currently working towards our goal for paying writers for this and next year.

Shares are very much appreciated, too!

Oh, hey! I'm *writing* again!

Let's talk about a man named named Ramza Beoulve. Let's talk about the "ease at which men are branded heretics..."

Let's talk about revolution.

www.eurogamer.net/the-revoluti...

The revolutionary politics of Final Fantasy Tactics, and why Ramza Beoulve is a hero for our times

Final Fantasy Tactics' original writer-director Yasumi Matsuno signalled the timeliness of this remake for a reason: its hero offers a model of resistance.

I wrote about calling things Dark Souls and also why the combat in Silent Hill f is #goodactually.

Endless Mode @endlessmode.bsky.social · 6d

Some have called Silent Hill f a "soulslike" due to a few similarities to Dark Souls. Is that a fair assessment, though? How much "souls" is in the new Silent Hill, anyway? @gracemachine.bsky.social investigates. www.endlessmode.com/video-games/...

Is It Accurate to Call Silent Hill f a "Soulslike"?

Silent Hill f bears some similarities with Dark Souls, but is it constructive to call the survival horror game a "soulslike"?
