man. @austinwalker.bsky.social is cooking. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqNv...

this is the sickest shit to me idk just cool jobs that seem fake but are not

We cannot move on from the Prairieland case as documented by @dfwsupportcommitt.bsky.social. We cannot avert our eyes from an injustice this grotesque and far-reaching. We cannot allow a beautiful idea like anarchism to be equated to terrorism. We cannot let the state trample us all.

I dreamed of Dire Marsh last night

What the fuck lmao

Marathon is a game where being a “combat anarchist” means you have really sick liberty spikes, a double jump, a mega man hand cannon and a sick dash-slide, and that’s closer to actual anarchism than the group that makes total destroy with corporate funding and institutional backing

Would I take Adbusters over the PSL? Listen,

When they’re not killing ten percent of the population of Mars for disloyalty, MIDA loves nothing more than a spot of Culture Jamming. Runnah,

It’s been funny to call them anarkiddies but let’s be real—everything about MIDA screams “the work and life of Kalle Lasn”

Marathon (2026) forces us to confront a horrifying future where Adbusters was a successful political vanguard

Despite filing a return in January, the government has made it clear to me that I'm just not getting a tax refund this year for whatever reason. It's no big deal but I was kind of relying on that money sooner than later (or not at all). So, uh, this is a ultra-low priority fundraising post

Realis—the moon-hopping TTRPG by @austinwalker.bsky.social—lands on Kickstarter April 2026! Featuring 55 classes, 150+ NPCs, 100+ illustrations, expanded GM & homebrew guidance, and much more, bookmark the campaign today at: www.kickstarter.com/projects/cru... | teaser art: @decassette.bsky.social

“Thinking” is actually a psyop by the CIA created in the 1970s in order to discredit Big Stupid

I do wonder about the narrative that has developed post-Gamergate that sort of damns Anita Sarkeesian’s media analysis with faint praise, often calling it entry-level, surface-level, simplistic, anodyne. I feel like that narrative has backfired & continues to do so the further we get from GG

Marathon (2026) forces us to confront a horrifying future where Adbusters was a successful political vanguard

The outcome of the first Prairieland trial does not mean that resistance is impossible. But it does mean we have to —teach all potential defendants not to cooperate with police —teach all potential jurors about jury nullification —and take these steps to build redundancy and resilience:

Happy 20th anniversary to Final Fantasy 12 - a game I genuinely think doesn't get talked about enough. One of the best-written entries in the franchise, impeccable world-building, and so many influential systems (Gambit system is still incredible). A game ahead of its time in so many ways.

Hey everyone, I wanted to share an update. I do finally have a little more part time work starting soon, but we were never able to get out from under the extra $5k it cost to get the car back and we're in a pretty dire spot. I'm so sorry to rattle the jar again, but any help is dearly appreciated. ❤️

I've had this problem with software enhancing since HDR hit back in like 2009. Running whole-image filters that blow out colors or reduce shadows doesn't automatically make those images better in the same way that selective burning and dodging, saturation tweaking, proper leveling and curving does.

jessica defino talks about how contemporary beauty culture is skewed towards the algorithmic gaze and rejection of "human" qualities: it's poreless, filtered, digitally and surgically altered, faces made uncanny through use of botox and filler. this kind of tech mirrors that rejection of humanness

Got one more week until Payday. It is very hard to get enough food to last on what *used* to be reasonable grocery run money days. If anyone can help out a little just for staying fed a few more days, I’d be really grateful. Paypal / Interac both use sincerelynataliereed at gmail dot com Thanks!

Between this and pushing Hogwarts Legacy, Digital Foundry is starting to sound like Gamergate and instead of worrying about the feelings of these grown boys for telling them they did a bad job I need the men in games media to tell their friends to look in the fucking mirror.

"NVIDIA said Todd Howard signed off on this" oh ok it's fine then

Been disappointed by DF since they went indie but this is another level of negligence. Embarrassing these guys cannot seem to comprehend this is gross for artists and women! Gotta throw out the men in this industry who refuse to engage with what we can all see to fanboy over their special interest.

DLSS 5 raises your electric bill to ignore/reject artistic intent in favor of a generically pretty face whose formulation is strictly and explicitly misogynist. There is no video game I can think of that has been made within the last 40 years that NEEDS that kind of shitty on-device "remastering"

lol lmao

we gotta, like, I dunno, tie up the Nvidia devs for a few years so that people can get reacquainted with graphics that don't always look like a fucking airbrushed to death pinup photo

DLSS 5 looks like shit! I'm sorry!

Marc Andreessen has no interiority? damn that's so surprising. . . what're y'all eating for lunch

I know Marathon has the sauce because I was resurrected by @youmeyou.bsky.social in our last session, was able to distract the enemy team that murdered me/aggro a squad of UESC bots, sprint towards the building, grapple up, and knife my killer in the back. I got "The Get Back" achievement for this

Any help you can provide Danika in this moment of crisis would be much appreciated.

Idk man, I think it's fine to throw someone under the bus if they start emitting Hitler particles.

yield not to misfortunes #marathon

Meredith saying something I’ve spent a lot of the last couple years thinking about:

"You are some kind of strange baby man?" "...yes." "...that is beautiful, I will bring you to cradle." #HL2VRAI is already the best thing this year.

We got a whole ass documentary around Grand Theft Hamlet but I want to see the work done on Half Life/Half Life 2 VR but the AI is Self-Aware. One of the greatest artistic works produced with video games in the modern era.

Word from Lud: Thank you FGC Fam! 🙏🙏🙏 I wouldn't be out without your tremendous support! Keep up the good fight! See you soon! 🏠 #FreeLud (reposted from The Hiero Group on twitter)

It’s happening now

I have no more takes today. I am simply going to watch my friend @hollowtones.bsky.social in Half-Life 2 But The AI (not that kind) is Self-Aware, and have a good time. You should watch it too. it's on in an hour twitch.tv/wayneradiotv

Hey if any of you want to pay me to write your video game, I love to write video games and am quite good at writing video games. You should pay me to write your video game

Apology and statement on the recent Patreon post about the Researcher app I announced yesterday to patrons. www.patreon.com/posts/apolog...

I don't think anyone should be harassed. that's a complete sentence. I'm also not gonna be like "we have to cup every individual in our hands like a baby bird" when *their patreon supporters* get upset at them for using AI to take an *inaccurate and messy* shortcut on the work they're being paid for

An early 2000s Mac mini with pirated copies of Photoshop and InDesign were the Computers For Me. It's how I learned publishing, photo editing and what it meant to be on the internet. I pirated a whole hard drive of punk from blogspot sites on that thing. Never once got a virus.

If developers are actively giving Microsoft’s money back I do actually think the least you can do is not reword Xbox press releases for SEO scraps

caves of qud is one of the greatest games I've ever played and I can barely get out of the tutorial marathon's not *exactly* like caves of qud but now that it's been pointed out to me that the qud crew did narrative preproduction on Marathon I can't help but see it. they're of a piece w/ each other
