Agentic AI running the world is pure fantasy. Like giving monkeys typewriters.

Je l'ai lu ! Un livre important. Dommage qu'il n'y ait pas encore une traduction en anglais...

Enjoying Arc Raiders. Nothing beats the thrill of preparing for half an hour to get instantly killed by some fucking robot and losing everything. Enriching.

Here's the portrait I took of Fenris Creations (formerly CCP) CEO Hilmar Pétursson at Eve Fanfest in Rekyavik last week. In our @edgeknowledge.bsky.social interview on Friday, he talks the Pearl Abyss deal, the future of New Eden and partnering with DeepMind. Sign up here: bit.ly/knowledgenew...

I've started playing Arc Raiders. If you want to play with a total noob with no resources, hit me up.

Our full schedule is now up on our website! gameworkersconference.org/2026-program

Standard. Weird that corporations are so frightened of organised workers. Maybe there's some sort of lesson there idk.

It seems clear now that favouring AI to create written content over people is a spectacularly stupid thing to do.

Phil Spencer: Xbox Asha Sharma: XBOX Me, trying to put Minecoins on my child’s account: FUCKING XBOX!!!

I'm in Iceland for Fanfest for the first time. It's pretty epic, ngl.

This is a fun explainer regarding veganism and honey. A lot of people get "stuck" on this, and not just with bees. Had a lady in a falafel shop in Sète last weekend baffled why I wouldn't drink sheep's milk "because the sheep wasn't killed".

Hello. It's Maraoke this Friday. I have come back from Tokyo JUST FOR THIS so it's the least you can do to show up and sing with me. Tickets available now, stupid songs, free drinks, etc.

Hi, so I have a side quest for any charity shop fans reading this. If you live outside of southern England, please could you pop into your fave charity store and reply with what video games you found there? Photos would also be appreciated. This is research for an article. RTs appreciated!

What I really love is the way Windows updates consistently fuck Bluetooth connectivity on my laptop, because, you know, I have Bluetooth shit connected to my laptop. Fucking love that shit, yo.

Submissions are for Tolka Issue Twelve are now open 💥 This submission window will close at midnight on Sunday 31 May. We accept all kinds of non-fiction, including essays, biography, auto-fiction, and more besides... tolkajournal.org/submit-to-to...

Anyway, I'm going to Eve Fanfest in Reykjavík this week. Looking forward to seeing the special horses.

Yes, you're on the record. This is why only mad people have Alexa in the house. Has no one seen M3GAN?

But it's cool, because when Brexit happened France realised voting facho is obviously insane. So thanks again, Britain. I hope.

This is why I don't live in Britain anymore.

Exhibition opening tonight. Big prints ready to go. The art is the creation, not the final result, but goddamn I'm proud of this lot and the work I've put in.

The game I worked on last year wasn't a hit, and therefore can't be developed further, so the studio have decided to make it free to play. No catch, just free. It's an online competitive FPS, in the dark. It's really good, and I don't even like FPSs. www.blindfiregame.com/news/blindfi...

God. I'm going to do something useful instead.

We really did not want to do this, believe us, but with the rampant rise of retro nostalgia causing players to not purchase our new games and instead flock to emulation, we're sending men with hammers. We're sorry. But not really.

8 - 9 - 10 MAI : PAS DE NAZIS DANS PARIS Cette année encore, les néofascistes du Comité du 9 Mai (C9M) prévoient de parader sous leurs bannières frappées de la croix celtique dans les rues de Paris, sous étroite protection policière et avec la bénédiction de l’État. 1/2 🔽

Reposts for all of these would be hugely and greatly appreciated! :)

Sharing, without comment, British newspapers’ depictions of the only Jewish person currently leading a UK political party . Times. Mail. Telegraph. Sun.

A Harvard study just published estimates Elon Musk's destruction of USAID has already caused 600,000 deaths 2/3 of them children. That is his legacy in this world.

I did my first 16-bit loading screen in ~38 years for this. Based very closely on @wiloverton.bsky.social ‘s lovely cover art.

Yer boy is in the papers today. :)

Samedi 9 mai, à nouveau, des centaines de néonazis vont défiler dans Paris. Empêchons-les de parader, soyons-là. Manif antifa, place Saint-Michel à 14h. En cas d'interdiction: rdv à Port-Royal à 15h (prudence, c'est le lieu de rassemblement des fafs). La veille: village antifa place du Panthéon.

I haven't thought about videogames for a week! This is just lovely, honestly.

Techno, techno, techno. Techno.

I just started reading comics a lot again. Hooked.

Finally, some good news: workers at Hachette are unionizing, and you can sign an open letter of support. This is the way! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Dear Jim, Can you please paint Cannibal Holocaust in the style of Peppa Pig. Thank you, Lucy Chambers

Who's the leader of the club that's made for you and me?

I've watched both Full Metal Jacket and Taxi Driver three times this year. Maybe something else now.

This is the weekend I'll finish a short story I've been writing since January and didn't finish because I spent six weeks working on a horror game writing portfolio. Don't start writing something else today, Pat.

My genius was already blindingly evident in 2003. Just glad I lived up to my potential. Thanks (I think), @freshmattic.bsky.social.
