i want to make a special note that every new staffer we have added to the site has not been a white man, which i think is very cool

Aftermath is my favorite and most valued subscription. Give them all your money. It's so worth it.

It’s true! You can catch me writing a monthly column on Aftermath starting…SOON

Thank you, we try

give 'em your subs! they pay me!

can i get a hell yeah on the timeline

this is a prime example of both why subscriptions matter and why, given where we're at currently (something for which we're extremely grateful!), we still need a whole lot more

Your subscriber dollars at work: Aftermath has a new regular contributor and monthly columnist. Welcome @adashtra.bsky.social and @jmrivera.bsky.social to our regular rotation of writers! aftermath.site/podcasts/after...

Blogged about a PS1 soundtrack banger. aftermath.site/sheep-dog-wo...

Somewhere along the line I think @papapishu.bsky.social became my favorite blogger

Project for the near future: Figure out a way to fit @mothership.blog, @aftermath.site, and @rascal.news subscriptions into my budget, if it's possible. If you're not reading these sites, you should be. If we don't support independent journalism in our hobbies, we won't have it.

As someone who edits 1-2 publishing agreements a week, whenever a funding agreement from a successful developer trying to share the wealth passes my desk they tend to include some of the best and most equitable terms I have ever seen. An unseen positive trend in the industry at the indie level!

Cant believe i now have to grieve him all over again

In a week of announcements from the likes of Nintendo, Blizzard, and WaPo – not necessarily the good kind – we're gonna make the biggest of all (citation needed) on today's stream, perhaps involving @adashtra.bsky.social and @jmrivera.bsky.social. We go live at 4 PM ET www.twitch.tv/aftermathdot...

nothing matters more to me than keeping this bit alive

As a principled video game executive, I believe AI is "metadata" mixed with "a parlor trick," and we should be skeptical of it. Then again, counterpoint: never mind aftermath.site/take-two-strau...

With the awful WaPo layoffs and the state of journalism more broadly, if it's useful for any writers and reporters considering going indy, @molly.wiki, @xoxogossipgita.bsky.social of Aftermath, @jasonkoebler.bsky.social of 404 Media, @edzitron.com and me will do a little workshop next week.

I know it’s annoying that I constantly ask people to sub, but subbing makes a huge difference. @aftermath.site has around 5,000 paying subs right now; most of us still work other jobs on the side. we have over 90k bluesky followers. if a fraction subscribed, it would literally change our lives

Want to know more about journalism co-ops like us? We're featured in this article from @niemanlab.org alongside some of the worker-owned news greats like @defector.com, @hellgatenyc.com, @coyotemedia.org, @sequencermag.bsky.social and @aftermath.site.

It's taken me all day to figure out what to say about today's WaPo layoffs, an unnecessary upending of the careers of hundreds of journalists, the paper itself, and the way millions of readers understand our current world aftermath.site/washington-p...

its boring to keep saying this, but the site only exists with subs. that's the business model. but even if you just sign up to our 'free' tier, you're still getting stuff, and that's a start!

please subscribe to a good website aftermath.site#/portal

had an incredible interview the other day with dr. jess morrissette (@decafjedi.com) and dr. megan condis, about their fascinating new research paper:

Oh I thought this was fluff (and was stoked) but it goes HARD immediately

I subscribe to a lot of indie pubs, but here are five worker-owned companies I'll never abandon: - @404media.co: essential technology! - @rascal.news: essential tabletop! - @aftermath.site: essential video games! - @defector.com: essential everything! - @hellgatenyc.com: essential New York!
