if the rapture could please wait until I've finished reading the new @tricialockwood.bsky.social book I'd greatly appreciate it, thank you

SCOOP — Part of the reason Disney/ABC may have rushed to sort things out with Kimmel is because tomorrow they have a planned price increase for Disney+ streaming, a Disney source tells me. With subscriptions hemorrhaging since last week, they couldn’t risk losing more users with this announcement.

The US is imposing 1000% tariffs on ma, the concept of emptiness or negative space in Japanese cinema. From now on if a character quietly admires a river or sips a cup of tea, theaters will be taxed millions

AI should stand for Accidental Intelligence for how often it actually get things right

update: EAT SHIT MOTHER FUCKER

I'd prefer not to get raptured because there's no way I'm finishing Silksong by Tuesday

Fix your brain and heart

absolutely insane week / month / year & it’s all a bit overwhelming but last night Underworld played an epic set & for 2.5 hours I forgot my troubles

had to scroll back to find Emma’s portfolio, but look. I would work with Emma again. that’s the best praise a director can give, imo.

Crisol: Theater of Idols has a playable demo on Steam NOW. 🩸

Trump Spends Entire U.K. Trip Trying To Figure Out Where He Knows Prince Andrew From

In case you'd like to leave some choice words regarding their decision to put Jimmy Kimmel on indefinite hiatus until he writes a sowwy I hurt you feewings letter & pays a bribe to CK's organization support.abc.com/hc/en-us/art...

Hey, if the people responsible for this are still around, you've got an AMAZING opportunity coming up

Fallon better brush up on his hair-tousling technique

"We're going to have to learn to live with [radical right wing demagoguery with all its associated violence]" is: - An abdication of responsibility. - An abandonment of hope. - A position only available to those who feel safe enough with an ongoing catastrophe to begin the work of normalizing it

It is the job of the Democratic party to sell and defend the policies that most Democratic voters want, not to present a candidate slate that is palatable to moderate Republicans who might switch if they hate their own candidate enough.

their band name is Centrist Nervous System

This was such a fun interview about Ambrosia Sky's storytelling and worldbuilding! bsky.app/profile/poly...

IT BEGINS! Spread it far and wide please!

my favorite robert redford story is that mike nichols considered him for dustin hoffman's part in THE GRADUATE. during their conversation nichols asked redford something like, "have you ever struck out with a girl?" and redford's response was basically, "i don't understand the question"

Ah! HoloVista is Apple's Game of the Day today! And the little article even quotes me! "Meet the creator:...The game’s narrative director, Whitney “Strix” Beltrán, views HoloVista as 'a strange ode to postmodernism and Western capitalism, bathed in vaporwave-y aesthetics.'”

Brilliant narrative game with wonderful mechanics that perfectly captures the ever shifting tone of life drama. There's going to be laughing and crying and sometimes both at the same time. Also, IMHO this is how you make a smaller scope narrative game with great pacing. Take note and get it!

No clear answers on whether mommy disappeared entirely behind hands during game of peekaboo Mommy's face was not visible from behind hands, and experts say they can't be sure

me, every day: - read interesting headline - click link - it's a video - check for a transcript - sigh - do something else

New job listing posted! Totally biased, but I think we're on to something really neat here. Come help us make it a reality!

what a humiliating way for don jr. to find out his dad sends birthday cards.

just lost 317 rosary beads to some bullshit in Silksong we are so fucking back

BOOK ANNOUNCEMENT! @mahliann.bsky.social, @marcuscarter.com, and myself have combined our collective brains and written a wide-reaching introduction to the complex and interdisciplinary field of Game Studies in this forthcoming book for Polity. www.politybooks.com/bookdetail?b...

IT'S REAL (good)

Working with Emma over the past 2 years has been a pleasure. She’s extremely good at voice and character work, and I hope she snags a role that lets these strengths of hers flourish. I wholeheartedly recommend her for anything.

It's a sign of the times that a writer/narrative designer as talented as Emma is looking for work, but it also means your team has an excellent opportunity to scoop her up. Deadpool was one of the best parts of Midnight Suns & Hindsight is a moving exploration of memory & grief. Seriously, hire her.

We made our goal, with about two weeks left to go! Please continue to support us, because that means I can hire more fabricator labor which means I will personally have time to build very small and indulgent pieces of furniture. www.kickstarter.com/projects/shi...

Just played this demo; it's trippy as hell - definitely want to check out the full game in October!

For those of you aiming to get into game writing, @thenarrativedept.bsky.social's free workshop here looks like a good way to spend your (upcoming) Saturday: thenarrativedept.mykajabi.com/the-game-wri...

i cannot overstate how extraordinary it is for federal civil servants to do this

Had a lovely time chatting with GameSpot about the present and future!

Could not be more excited for these games to be going up on Kickstarter. Every day I’m more glad to be part of this big flurry of upcoming Possible Worlds Games releases.

It's my absolute pleasure to present to you our labor of love: Poly Fighter! We are HeartLoop Games! ♥

This is what patriotism and true egoless leadership looks like. Thanks for your service, Rep. Nadler. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/n...

People saying Trump is dying or possibly dead, but I for one would urge caution, because it is quite possible a second healtbar will appear as he enters his second phase and a gargantuan centipede will burst forth from his torso, so be careful of his new sweep attacks and toxic buildup from bites.
