Fever dreams are so cool, under-appreciated avant garde works in the dream medium.

EXCLUSIVE: So far it's been unclear what proof Rockstar Games has to justify its firing of 34 union members, who it claims were leaking "confidential information in a public forum". PMG has now seen some of the messages which contributed to this decision being made. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8TvW...

The forbes "this isn't a bubble, this is an energy-based transformation of society" article is so bad it's making me acknowledge AI news at all I'm so sorry everyone.

world where puns are a long lost kitsch art and everyone on social media replies to things they pattern match on with basic rhymes instead.

The IWGB has just announced that 220 letters, signed by Rockstar staff, have now been delivered to leadership at the company, demanding the immediate reinstatement of their fired colleagues.

Over 200 Rockstar staff have written to management in support of unfairly fired union members. We have published more details on our website, although we have not yet released the exact contents of the letter: www.gameworkers.co.uk/rockstar-ope...

I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct. That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting. www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9nO...

Support this IWGB game workers union fund if you can! They are gaining momentum and fighting back against this union busting from rockstar. bsky.app/profile/game...

Rockstar union workers have set up a solidarity fund to help our fight after 30 of them were fired in an attempt to destroy the union. Help us fight back! Anything you can donate will massively help our efforts to hold Rockstar to account. actionnetwork.org/fundraising/...

Giving myself a little libbing out treat (scrolling through all the zohran mamdani social media stuff) before I get too harsh of a december 2019 flashback.

Solidarity to those in @gameworkers.co.uk targeted by the worst union busting the UK has seen in years. Make no mistake, the management want to squash unionisation of the games industry so workers have less job security than even today. Stay strong peeps, and know you've a lot of support out here!

Rockstar: not only making history in terms of profits, but in enacting the most brazen act of union busting the games industry has ever seen.

This is the most ruthless act of union busting in the history of the UK games industry. Yesterday, @rockstargames.com unfairly fired over 30 employees for union activity. We won't back down, and we're not scared - we will fight for every member to be reinstated.

i love webcomic comments. it's like if thousands of people watching a soap opera paused it every twenty seconds to debate for a full day who's being immoral and what might happen in the next twenty seconds

It's not an issue exclusive to romance but that's the actual issue with "cozy"/"comfort" fare becoming more and more mainstream: unchallenging stories are normative ones, and deviation registers as a discomfort, a threat to a palatable, marketable, relatable package of Stuff Happens To Normal Folks.

The BBC using quotation marks on terms like "drone attack" and "genocide" but then just printing His Majesty King Charles like it's an emergent property of the Universe.

been a rough time for: - 📖 Em/en-dash lovers — we really like our macbook keyboards. - 🚅 bullet point lovers — information that's been broken up into sections is just easier to understand especially for non-experts. - 😎 emoji annotators — a visual element gives another mental hook to hold on to.

if you really want to stick it to Disney, and other corporate media giants, become fascinated by things they would never produce, so that they might fade into the background noise of life.

Trouble with being into the "music that's bad" genre is that trying to wind down and recalibrate with worse music after a long stint of being so excited about music is almost impossible. Phone microphone banjo music still passes as exciting.

learning so much from instagram reels about art methods. such as "looking at instagram reels makes me feel like I've accomplished something artistic for about 5 seconds and then it's gone and I feel empty."

This took far too long and broke too many things.

I've made so many architecture mistakes while making this card game and I've forgotten like 90% of them so you're all saved from a long, long string of technical blog posts "After" all this

I don't want to make a equal-shuffle following feed (like here syndicate.fallible.net) but for bluesky but I keep really feeling the need to.

announcement: my video game will come out way after silksong. this isn't a change, I'm just hitting lots of late production snags and want the meme-levels of attention to sooth my brittle soul.

Today's logo design affirmations: There is no such thing as too garish. Texture is good. Bright colours are also good. A third font never hurt anybody.
