Feel like it shld be front page, 34-sized font headline news that the person who gave ~$250 million to Trump campaign and then was co-president for a few months, dismantling agencies and stealing Americans' data, built an AI tool that is being used for child porn. This Sept. piece is instructive

hi everybody! I'm urgently looking for full-time game writing/narrative design work. I'm a 6-year industry pro working with both AAA and indie studios on titles like Borderlands 4, Endoparasitic, and [REDACTED]. I also edit and consult! Updated portfolio is live on my new site: www.nessacannon.com

New Year, New "Hey, I'm Still Looking For Work" Post I'm available for full-time or part-time work as a Game Writer and a Narrative Designer but I'm open to consulting if that's what you need. You can find my work and reach out to me at sahilbajaj.dev

Did you know that for five bucks a month you get access to the PBS passport streaming app which has tons of incredibly good shows and documentaries and things and it helps support their funding?

the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches

Increasingly feels like the only way to take back control is to become famous so people can recognize your personal style on sight. No one should have to become hypervisible for these thieving leeches to face consequences. Many creators aren't built for that, nor do they want that.

this tactics game would rip

All my Choice of Games text games are in the Steam Winter sale! Royal Affairs is 40% off: play as the Queen of Westerlin's middle child and head off to boarding school! Meddle in politics, decide on a perfect (or scandalous) future spouse... rule the roost or be a royal disaster!

Governments collectively making it onerous and difficult to buy consensual adult porn and sex ed, while ignoring a billionaire's revenge porn and csam factory, is really rather too on the nose.

Lots of the footage of Venezuelans cheering on the US are from US cities. In the streets of Caracas, people are making a run on the banks, gas and groceries out of fear. Disinformation is rampant right now as the truth is suppressed. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

Glad to see Dosa Divas on the 50 most anticipated games for 2026 list! www.polygon.com/most-anticip...

Every list of best games that doesn’t have Devil May Cry 3 or 5 is factually wrong.

this is live today, and trust me when I say you need some skillful weird fiction with soul more than ever

Apropos of nothing, it's a good time to make your own games and release them to the world right now. Just do it.

Don’t just send your outrage out into the social media void; send them to your representatives. The politicians in positions to do something about the near-daily unlawful actions of this administration need to know their constituents are paying attention and demand action.

Hip, hip!

Happy New Years! ✌🏾✨️🍾🥂

I don't know who needs to know but UNBEATABLE's soundtrack (which is 10/10) is name your own price on Bandcamp dcellgames.bandcamp.com/album/unbeat...

So I am going to say something about romance as a genre. A lot of people think that romance is ignorable because <insert thing they think about romance> and romance authors don't count because <insert thing they think about romance>. This thread is not about whether you have to like romance.

a few years ago, when i still worked in IT, customers would frequently say something to the effect of: "you're so smart; why do you do THIS for a living?" my response: "because i don't want to make weapons." i used to get weird looks, but now there is a general understanding of what that means

Trans rights are human rights. Trans folks deserve to be loved, cherished, valued, protected, successful, and able to take care of themselves and their loved ones. It's monstrous out here. This climate is vile, but I want you here and I will fight for you.

We did it! How surreal! ✨

Thank you all for making this our biggest campaign ever!!! ✌️🥹🫂

This is very alarming. Northwestern used to stand for something. Very disturbing to see a respectable university bow to authoritarianism like this.

America's first ever esports champion was Rebecca Heineman, a trans woman. She went on to found some of your favorite video game studios and worked on your favorite video games. Next time you see somebody rail about 'woke' and 'DEI' Remember that. Remember her.

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

Whomst among us hasn't felt a little vacuum about snackie all done

Sometimes I hate myself for the kind of gameplay ideas I have, coding this tumbling block physics with the screws was SOO hard But I'm happy that the block puzzles are getting more varied and better integrated with the platforming, pacing and all (game is ABYSS X ZERO, btw) #gamedev #lowpoly #axz

Mamdani: "We can respond to oligarchy and authoritarianism with the strength it fears, not the appeasement it craves. After all, if anyone can show a nation betrayed by Donald Trump how to defeat him, it is the city that gave rise to him."

hire all the fired political teen vogue writers and make a new magazine call teen rogue. we’ll all subscribe en masse

I second this! Support physical media (journals, games, CDs, etc) whenever you can and pledge to these folks! I have their first three volumes and I'm getting 4 & 5 as add-ons with my vol 6 pledge!

They’ll insist this is a one-off victory — something that can only happen in New York & nowhere else. They’re wrong. New York is the world financial capital — home of Wall Street & billionaires from across the globe. If everyday people can defeat oligarchs here, we can defeat oligarchy anywhere.

Folks who create videos about games on the internet: I have questions for you if you'd be so kind. I'm trying to determine the relationship between traditional media and those who create videos about games and have never worked for the games press. Sharing is appreciated! forms.gle/cG3BEkGqwuoh...

Feel like I'm going to cry (in a good way!)
