The fact that this man, whose work we all know, had to sell off valuables to pay for cancer treatments tells you how rigged this system is against us, and how fucked the average person is if we don't effect some change. May his memory be a blessing.

Iron Lung, Life Eater, and a bunch of other dope games are in the Humble "Love You to Death" bundle! www.humblebundle.com/games/love-y...

Wait, how is it 7 am already???

Van Der Beek won me over years ago when he released an ‘anniversary’ gif of himself recreating the crying Dawson meme along with a bunch of other reaction gifs so we’d have a Dawson for every occasion. (Forgive the SEO’d in to nonsensicality article but the full collection is here)

Obviously the closing point about how gamification makes the divide between work and the rest of life slippery is the big important takeaway here, but also, lol, lmao, i simply love to read about the gamer's grotesque urge.

What can you say at this point

that's better

Oh fuck. What a good dude he was. I got to spend three days with him on the set of RULES OF ATTRACTION & he was an absolute prince. He noticed some kids sneak on set & said "We should go over and say hi before security gets them." Just a really kind, funny, charming man. Heartbroken for his family.

Today’s the 89th anniversary of the end of the Flint Sit-Down Strike, which led to GM recognizing the @uaw.org for the first time. I remembered to wear my shirt with images from the strike and plug my game about it, Striking Flint, on the actual date this year. hollandspiele.com/products/str...

HAPPY 27th BIRTHDAY to Final Fantasy VIII! OC ReMix celebrated FF8 in 2023 with the (FREE) fan arrangement album, SeeDs of Pandora! 💿 ff8.ocremix.org 🎮🎧 5 1/2 hours, 80 tracks, 97 musicians! Thanks to directors @darkflamewolf.bsky.social & @jorito.bsky.social!

“Runaway train, never coming back” Okay, we have our metaphor. “Wrong way down a one-way track” Boy, that certainly is a problem. “Seems like I should be getting somewhere” STOP. That is the EXACT OPPOSITE PROBLEM of being on a runaway train.

I am deeply concerned about the potential impact of NSW Police actions on vulnerable youth. Images that show Muslims in peaceful prayer being pulled and thrown without warning can be leveraged to radicalise and recruit disaffected young people. This is extremely dangerous and counterproductive.

Well done.

There is absolutely no legitimate reason to have included that.

A dresser inside a museum in New York City has been discovered as a secret stop on the Underground Railroad — the first of its kind discovered in Manhattan in over 100 years

And then, in a wonderful bit of environmental storytelling there is another piece on the other side of the city "have you had that tab yet Adrian".

It is, without question, my favourite bit of local graffiti.

No more protesting thanks, that's it wrap it up it's not cohesive. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

My first academic publication came out today in Education Sciences! Our paper presents a card game I designed as an example of how bespoke boardgames can provide an authentic learning experience. Huge thanks to lead and co-authors @melissainau.bsky.social and @elisabone.bsky.social.

Adorable. :)

THIS NEWS WILL PLEASE A FEW PEOPLE: “QUT will become the new custodian of Meanjin, Australia's most eminent literary journal, bringing the publication back to Brisbane 80 years after it relocated to Melbourne.” www.qut.edu.au/meanjin

Love opening game boxes I’ve not opened in a while to find them organised with Cube4Me gear. :)

haven't made a step sound yet so i'm using a clip of alucard saying "What?!" from castlevania symphony of the night with randomized pitch as a placeholder.

I honestly wonder if Wolnir from Dark Souls 3 was inspired by this.

Mewgenics player reviews are something else. :P

👏👏👏

Romeo is a Dead Man attracting a wide variety of opinions from great to meh. EXACTLY what one wants to see from a Grasshopper game.

Why the fuck

suda 'fuck racism' 51 has never heard of subtlety in his fucking life

Thanks! For those interested in how Prince of Persia got made, you can find my published journals, and my graphic novel REPLAY, on my website at jordanmechner.com -- along with archival materials and commentary (some of which is referenced in this article).

I feel this in my bones. (You can, and I have, get this to work but man it is a lot of fucking about for no appreciable gain - Just package the water and sink it. Water is the one near endless resource in the game, you don’t need to recycle it)

Rodney Smith is a class act.

NEW: ICE has a plan to lease offices across the US as part of a secret, months-long expansion campaign. Today, @wired.com is publishing dozens of those locations. Many are near schools, medical offices, and places of worship. Vital work from @leahfeiger.bsky.social that I'm proud to publish.

"Didn't much care when i thought they were all 15"

No one should be creating partnerships with HP at this point given the ways JK Rowling is spending her money to actively harm our trans friends. Hopefully Avalon Hill, a game studio within Hasbro, will steer free of this nonsense. I'll reach out to them and put in my 2 cents.

I THINK Flower, Sun and Rain was the first time I heard (a version of) Erik Satie’s Gymnopedie No. 1

:P

Watengenah. Watengah.

The intro from "Another World" still manages to impress decades later, which is why I feel like it's nearly impossible to describe emotions one felt upon encountering it 35 years ago for the first time.

I really like my Viper glam. ^_^

It can be difficult sometimes to distinguish between social cohesion and common assault
