Hello there! I mostly reskeet/repost things, but might have something to say now and then.
Pinned
So people don't think I'm a bot or scammer, here's a pinned post!

I like games, art, music, and stories (minus AI). I mostly reskeet/repost stuff here, but might say something now and then, too.

A reminder - before Trump, MAGA, Musk and Fox rewrote history - that this is what the entire country agreed had happened five years ago today:

The exhausting tension of wanting to be online because you care about the world and want to stay alert and informed but you also don't want to melt your brain and become a complete weirdo to your friends...

The scam website that is trying to steal money from artists is back, new logo and... very hastily made website.
Be wary of them, block and report and warn other artists.

I disagreed with the opinion that indie devs needed to start charging $70+ for their games.

Runner up: I said Concord was an awful game.

Wow who could have ever predicted that the bullshit robot would somehow become just another vehicle for advertising
“This could look like a user asking how much ibuprofen to take for a headache receiving a promoted ad for Advil in the chatbot’s response. Meanwhile, actual results on correct dosage may be brushed to the side, or buried under a mountain of ad text…”

THIS. Did you know sickle cell is curable, now? FULLY curable.

If you're feeling down or despairing about what FEELS like technology/advancement/science "standing still" or being fully malicious, I have great news: You're not paying attention to actual science. Just tech industry marketing.
meanwhile.... medicine has taken INSANE leaps and bounds in the last 2 years.
we're out here curing HIV and leukemia and creating 100% efficacy vaccines against all sorts of cancers, and now this??

between this and renewable energy outstripping fossil fuels in efficiency, the future is bright

There are such serious divisive issues to be outraged by, but I think everyone needs to come together and fight the temperature changing 40 degrees in one day. We can all hate this equally, right?

"We've re-released some of our games! Sure, some of them are watered down and barely functional compared to the originals, but please buy them! We're going into genAI now, so we need the cash!"

I haven't bought anything EA Games for 10+ years. Looks like I'll keep that up!

Okay, so at the request of the lovely @trance.bsky.social , I'm going to tell a story about what happens when a shitty person is "just joking", and then discovers there are consequences.

You don't have to "burn it all down" in any given category. You have to be open to people doing good, while also being ready to hold them to task when they don't, and push for protection and support for the people who get hurt if that happens.

Sweeping generalizations only protect the wrong people

Indie devs aren't going to "save" us. Indie publishers aren't going to "save" us. There is no category out there that is magically free from toxicity or the capacity to do wrong, intentionally or not, and acting like indies are somehow above that in general is what's dangerous.

Do not trust anything you read or see from The Escapist. Their quality and accuracy has crashed through the floor. The real team jumped ship and formed @secondwindgroup.com.

What is on the website now is powered by barely legal casinos and gambling. They hide dirty advertisements as reviews. 🎰🎲🃏

On my 24th hour of trying to get my new computer to merely function. Windows really stopped supporting a fully functioning OS and got AI to output something unusable, huh?

Apparently even for computer technicians, changing the language is an alchemic roll of the dice that may or may not ever work.
