Every night @maddow.msnbc.com has a first segment that runs through protests and town halls held in last 24 hrs and if you are feeling like nobody is feeling like you feel or you don’t know what to do: start by watching these and then find your people in your area. They are everywhere.

The world needs more examples of women throwing out men who are comfortable voting for politicians and parties that want to make women second-class citizens. We had to wade through a lot of blandness to get here but it’s almost worth it. #LoveIsBlind

NetEase laid off Marvel Rivals devs despite $136M January revenue. Game Director Thaddeus Sasser among those let go. #MarvelRivals #NetEase #GamingNews #GamingLayoffs #GameDev

The video game industry is starting to look like a series of scams targeting gamedevs

like other examples before. even making the big game thats made huge profits dosnt stop the devs being fired. Keep an eye out for executives suddenly having a big bonus. Sad to see as the devs did really good work.

"Heads I win, tails you lose", the story of capitalism

Game devs really need to unionize. This Alex Pareene piece comparing film studios, who make a movie and then disband the team every time by design, with game studios who *pretend* to have a permanent work force, really stuck with me. newrepublic.com/article/1626...

Man at this point we should just get rid of corpos and capitalism

The tech industry needs unions like the film industry does. This is awful.

unionize, unionize, unionize, unionize

One more time for the people in the back: "Making Video Game Studios publicly traded companies is the worst thing to ever happen to video games." - Edge Magazine August 2024

Remember, if your game flops you will be fired, and if your game is a wild success you will also be fired.

Marvel Rivals director and team laid off according to posts www.resetera.com/threads/marv...

➡️ January 20: FAA director fired ➡️ January 21: Air Traffic Controller hiring frozen ➡️ January 22: Aviation Safety Advisory Committee disbanded ➡️ January 28: Buyout/retirement demand sent to existing employees ➡️ January 29: First American mid-air collision in 16 years Making America Great Again!

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Day 2 and Day 10

The idea that I should be constantly doing (or absorbing) something all the time is my brain's worst problem that's taken over during the last 5+ years. So I say spend that 5 minutes (and more) deliberately doing nothing. Try to enjoy where your mind goes when you're just being, instead of doing

just from a folklore point of view, "attractive hooded man kills billionaire head of hated business with bullets inscribed with political slogans and then vanishes" is narratively breathtaking

I've been thinking about this poem by Langston Hughes recently and although it was published in 1931, it remains relevant as ever. #books #reading #booksky #poetry
