Happy year of the Fire Horse!

Damn I can't believe they're putting a "punch me until my breathing stops" feature in the new Meta Ray-Bans.

Guess it's that time of the year to wheel this out... 😏

Journalist Mech Dara, known for his investigations into Cambodia’s online scam industry, was detained by military police in Koh Kong for nearly an hour before released at about 5pm on February 11, after photographing a mass raid in the Dara Sakor area kiripost.com/stories/deta...

It would be embarrassing under any circumstances to spend a year on this reactionary horseshit, but to have spent the year in which graduate students were sent to concentration camps for op-eds and the federal govt launched a no hold barred attack on academic freedom is just beyond

jc denton: sluggish. tired. weary. jc: sounds like someone's got a case of the mondays. alex jacobson: a man is dead, JC. jc: such things happen on mondays.

this is willful, blatant bigotry. you can't even claim this is in the interest of countering scams, because they're equating being in Gaza with being a spam bot

dearest gentle reader… this is the first time i’m seeing this visual and i’m losing it at 8:30am on a sunday

Revealed: Something a *LOT* of us have been banging on about for years now. Also, the explicit reason why I refuse to promote or repost Substacks, no matter how interesting the content may be.

Just gonna say since we're already talking about unionizing game writers: hey, maybe let us localizers in on those talks, too, because it's pretty fucking rough out there, even in AAA. I'd probably have three times as many credits if we were unionized and I'm one of the lucky ones with any at all.

Here's all the graphical iterations of our PowerPoint factory game, from the original game jam to what it is now! store.steampowered.com/app/3987250?... #indiegame #gamedev

I may delete this because it’s a bit spicy but it shouldn’t be lost on us that games being turned into TV is essentially harvesting the stories written by those who don’t have union representation or healthcare with WGA by those that do. Our stories are good enough for TV but the writers aren’t?

For context: Wayne Connell is the bitch-ass motherfucker who was forcing people back to the newsroom and taking fucking attendance in 2022, and now he doesn’t even have the balls to lay people off to their fucking faces.

Shame on ProPublica management for moving like Starbucks, Amazon and other organizations - especially under this anti-labor administration - to fuck over workers.

The people behind the excellent indie gems Judero and Mashina are crowdfunding their next game, ABIDE! They've so far been making games that breathe life into clay and kitbashed models in a way that constantly leaves me in awe. I can't wait to see what they do in a horror game. Consider supporting!

I just want the chance to graduate without the constant fear of tuition & to afford the dental tools I need to keep going. In G@za, even basics cost more than we can manage.
