Josei Manga Artist Kiriko Nananan has sadly Passed Away. She was only 52 years old.

She is famous for her reduced linework and realistic human stories like "Blue", "Strawberry Shortcakes" and "Pumpkin and Mayonnaise"

I think a lot about this. I'd never played Deus Ex before until recently, and it's in some ways depressing as hell to see this masterwork that's functionally never going to be replicated? Mostly because nobody is able to work at the fidelity necessary for it who can still get the necessary funding?
When I left 2K Marin in 2013 and went indie, this statement (from a Rock Paper Shotgun guest piece about Deus Ex written by my friend and former colleague JP LeBreton) was seared into my mind.

generally, I think most of us are more likely to lose our jobs because the trustees decided to “reimagine the university” (eliminate 1/3 of departments) in “the face of fiscal constraints” (blew the endowment on real estate schemes) than due to a student debuting for americas next top reactionary

the attack on discrete, vulnerable categories of professors/grad students and discrete, hyper-politicized bodies of knowledge—and the consequent casting of college as a place of decadent ‘degeneracy’—is, however, the thing that lets them do it so easily

If this is true—the advice or the hiring practices—then faculty, especially tenured faculty, need to take a fucking look in the mirror.

We have incredibly privileged positions despite it all + if you won’t use it to hire trans people out of fear of backlash you don’t deserve the position you have.

Anti-trans demagogue and fifth place swimmer Riley Gaines earned $470,000+ last year from a conservative non-profit.

Notably, $420k was incentive-based.

A neat little window into the way the transphobic grift is being compensated.

I wonder what the per-post rate is?

If you’re wondering why your friends in academia are a little on edge right now, it’s because an eighteen-year-old who hasn’t done the reading, doesn’t look at the assignment, and has does no critical thinking skills more complex than “because I think it’s in the Bible” can literally end your career

It is a contaminant. I've compared AI to digital asbestos or microplastics, it gets everywhere, and I don't think people yet grasp how insidious it is, I've spoken before about how asset libraries are being poisoned with it, how it's often undisclosed on these platforms, devs don't always spot it.

Nearly of the US's garlic comes from China. Another quarter of it from Spain.

At least it did before the trade war.

It's possible some of the garlic being sold rn is the tail end of garlic that was shipped in before the tariffs started.
