Hatred of AI now reaching the level of cultural consensus that becomes attractive to advertisers

Don't fall for this. Rowling wants trans people to self censor and to stop sharing the report. If this report really was as defamatory as she claims, she wouldn't be cheering on its spread. What she really wants is a costly settlement from AI UK, humiliating apology, and permanent silence.

The next chapter of In A Mirror, Darkly is out! I'll be taking an extra week to do the next chapter, so the next upload will be on August 3. archiveofourown.org/works/747744...

Sam Neill on tackling depression and imposter syndrome when you’re between jobs.

Noooo! Not Sam Neill! (This was just posted to his Instagram a few minutes ago)

Sam Neill has sadly passed away at the age of 78.

Amnesty International put out a major report documenting the influence of UK based anti trans gender critical organizations and their funding. Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is.

Always remember that loudly calling something shit and evil and bad still has power, however diminished in this era of shamelessness.

Kids need/deserve traumatic films. Films that show death or lasting consequences that aren't resolved almost instantly. Fear, anger, grief and frustration should be part of kids movies. Kids arent stupid, they feel big emotions just like adults, they deserve to see those experiences reflected back.

The #AcrossTheGameOverse collab has been done! Although gotten some bumps on the road regarding to the rules. We are able to make the collab possible thanks to you artists out there! Thank you all who participated! Shoutout to @psiontimestone.bsky.social for assisting on the help for the collab

We just want to make games. We just want to be treated humanely and paid fairly to do it. This is somehow seen as a problem.

I don't know if anyone noticed, but I stopped offering commissions at the start of 2026. I did this consciously as I hit a big mental lull - this has also hit my other hobbies, and it has combined with a total lack of interest and dejection at seeing the spread of AI slop.

I still stand by my suspicions about Gabriel Brown, and I believe people when they say he has hurt them. From personal experience, this kind of harm too often happens behind closed doors; I’ve been unfortunate enough to see it happen before. That is all I will say on the matter.

Have been asked by NBC News for a comment on the "Sony kills ownership/lack of digital customer rights" catastrophe:

Patreon says fuck a i

THIS STUDIO MADE THE FAMOUS IDTECH ENGINE AND YOU'RE FORCING THEM TO USE FUCKING **UNREAL**??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? FUCK YOU

bro they laid off the Doom 2016 developers. that's like if you laid off the studio that made arguably one of the best first-person shooters of all time, like Doom 2016

UPDATE: I've obtained a WARN notice filed in Texas that reveals 136 employees have been laid off at id Software (including remote workers), with another 22 people being ousted at Bethesda Game Studios' office in Austin. The overwhelming majority of those laid off were CWA union members.

'Used, abused, and discarded:' CWA Canada slams Microsoft over handling of Bethesda layoffs

i speak with all seriousness when i say that to speed up the video game production process we need to think like this

I’m so sorry for everyone at id Software affected by these layoffs. I know what it feels like to leave id while id goes on. It’s a strange and painful thing to step away from a place that holds so much of your work, friendships and history. 1/5

Report: Roughly half of the id Software team have been laid off

imagine if they fired every band member every time an album came out

I guess you could say that id Software... met its DOOM... I'll see myself out. Seriously, this is awful news.

btw i know glitch will probably get some kind of audience reduction due to tadc ending, so i must say, pleeeeaase stick around and support their other shows! at least give them a chance sure not everything may hit for you, but who knows, you may find a new favourite show of theirs!

The game industry is so fucking back

An unusual discussion, but it could be fun to engage with. 1 like = 1 genuine compliment to a piece of media I dislike.

Now I'm back from holiday, I've posted the newest In A Mirror, Darkly chapter! archiveofourown.org/works/747744...

So the UK government are currently consulting on a green paper that would force YouTube to prioritise content from traditional television channels like BBC, ITV, etc. over those from other content creators. That would be quite bad for creators like myself. rsvp.withgoogle.com/events/keep-...

Honestly, I forgot this was a thing. Following on from Evangelion 3.0+1.0, I honestly considered this story 'done'. Where else could it go?

Sony still in hiding? Make sure they can still hear us! This petiton continues to blow up. Fight for physical games and sign: c.org/h2XBnkHy4g Spread the word too.

The Sony backlash has transcended the borders of gaming. Comedians, fast food chains, tech companies, everyone is piling on Sony. Everyone can feel that something bad has happened. It is by far the most intense criticism we have ever witnessed against a gaming platform.

New updated piracy ad dropped following Sony ditching physical games.

Complete control of value incoming

If games still looked like video games we wouldn’t need to fit 99 gigs on a disc. Too many titles need to be AAA slop, including franchises that used to be good. Im already priced out of pc gaming why not price me out of anything that’s not Nintendo too. Im so sick of this industry

“Weird Al” Yankovic turned down a highly paid commercial after learning it involved AI: “Oh, no. I can’t be the poster boy for AI. Forget it.”

The Overton window keeps sliding.

thinking about this today!

This is how you share your games on PlayStation.
