Fuck are we even doing? Sincerely. Cause it sure ain't "making video games". I didn't get into this line of work to be a disposable razor for Money Monsters and I'm pretty sure none of you did either.

Back up to two mile walks a day with the dog. Feels good. Now to fix a drink and make some dinner. I think potato leek soup…

I don't want to fucking find another group chat platform I want the shitty people who make our fucking lives a little more miserable every single day over fake made up bullshit to fucking you know the thing we all want them to do at this point

Spent sometime tonight working on the lighting for my Unreal Engine 5 environment. Really liking the focal lighting now, still need to make adjustments and push more of it. but the balance feels nice now.

My 1:1055 (LEGO Ent-D scale) Defiant class! Went with an option sticker for the nose detailing, really happy with this one! 134 pieces, 11.5cm/4.5in long. Instructions: liliumbrickyards.com/product/defi...

you have to stop listening to the excuses of the murder machine & actually destroy the murder machine

this is a subject that's near and dear to my heart 1. no you didn't, you retconning fucks 2. your decades of anti-governance "free market" "government never functions" propaganda paved the way for the complete authoritarian decimation of labor, consumer, environmental protections

my most maud’dib coded belief is that social media predictions, even jokes, muddy the water of the future, like the dune tarot lmao

In the 80s, Americans put on trials across the country to attack daycare workers, teachers, and random goth kids over absurd and unsubstantiated claims of satanic abuse. In the 2020s, we have evidence of a global child trafficking network, and nothing is happening.

i dont think one thing should replace discord, i think like three things at minimum should replace discord. it being an All-in-One app has ruined so many parts of online.

You're reading Fox News or working for Fox News at this point lol

Bring back earnestness and sincerity.

And if you're curious wtf this is, there was a lovely writeup about our efforts in The Verge today! (right as we've crossed 500,000 whistles printed and shipped!) www.theverge.com/policy/87495...

Ok folks, I've updated the wishlist page of our ragtag group of whistlesmiths and we have a number of people running low on filament - if you wanna help contribute to our efforts of making and distributing free community safety whistles around the country, here's the list! linktr.ee/WhistleWishL...

Really funny how the ruling class keeps justifying infringing on our liberties with "we gotta protect the children" while bombing palestinian children, protecting a global billionaire network of child trafficking, and building measles infested children prisons

This after they had someone steal 70K ID's back in October is whack.

Fuck this

IRC servers are still alive and well for those of us who don't need bells and whistles and voice chats

Oh cool... the one app I was using to chat with friends... so... discord alternatives? 2020's: The decade everyone left their 2010's apps behind because of enshitification, greed, and shadowy bullshit.

Ultimately right now in video games I feel surrounded by people who are worried, all the time, about long-term unemployment and ensuing social (or actual) death and so if you seem very invested in coming up with fun uses for LLMs in games I find you despicable.

I didn't have TikTok on my phone when it was Chinese spyware, I'm not going to have it on my phone when it is US spyware

I've gotten heavy TNG-era vibes watching #StarTrek Starfleet Academy, but couldn't quite articulate why. I shared my thoughts with Tawny Newsome, and she helped explain it in the best way: www.cinemablend.com/interviews/i...

Remember back in October how Discord's third party suffered a data breach where 70k+ ID photos were leaked? Yeah. Discord can pound sand. discord.com/press-releas...

So this article just dropped. www.theverge.com/policy/87495...

So, what's the Signal version of Discord?

I feel like I'm losing my goddamnned mind. This op-ed was written by Kathrine Mangu-Ward. Katherine is editor-in-chief of Reason magazine. Reason fired @shikhadalmia.bsky.social for being too anti-Trump.

Ten years ago today we shipped Firewatch. I say this every anniversary but it feels both like a lifetime ago and like it was yesterday. Thank you everyone who played it back then or played it today for the first time. Thank you to everyone on the team, I’m still so proud of what we made.

“Your data is yours and yours always,” said Oura CEO Tom Hale. This doesn't mean... anything? Oura data *isn't* end-to-end encrypted, it's stored in a way that allows Oura *staff* to access sensitive health data, and Oura's spokesperson has admitted it has received government demands for user data!

There is no "fixing" detention centers. We are knowingly killing people as a policy choice.

As we commemorate Black History Month, we acknowledge the profound interconnectedness between the struggles for Black liberation and Palestinian liberation.

#BlackHistoryMonth Prolific writer Claude McKay wrote one of the greatest poems in literary history--"If We Must Die" is a sonnet that he wrote in response to racial violence. READ: https://open.substack.com/pub/sonsoflibertyofficial/p/blackhistorymonth-claude-mckay-and

Im not on the Bluesky Universe map and honestly Im okay with it. I didnt need to be included anways its totally fine

There's also a digital colouring book to go with it. You can colour the spaceships digitally, or print them out and colour with pencils or pens. #WeirdFieldWorld #SciFi #Spaceships #ColouringBook

Did you know you could buy a digital copy of my book 'Weird Field World'? It's a mix of world building, fiction, maps, illustrations, detailing a future where earth receives messages from the stars, which turn out to be instructions for building spaceships. #WeirdFieldWorld #SciFi #Spaceships

I hate saying this but this IS how fallout happened

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

Imagining wanting less of this in America lol. Skill issue

No Kings includes Draft Kings

The Super Bowl is chock full of AI ads and, from the bottom of my heart, I hope every single company humoring this shit goes bankrupt in glorious fashion, and that the marketing firms responsible for pitching this fuck-awful slop spends the rest of their miserable days fighting off lawsuits.

Wake n' bake with me worms 😘

The current regime took a week to abolish USAID, which is three times as old and was not in the news every day for brutalizing children

My latest @newscientist.com column for subscribers and library patrons is about Elon Musk’s attempts to co-opt Star Trek and how Mars is actually a hostile planet 🧪🔭 www.newscientist.com/article/mg26...

I have incarcerated comrades & loved ones who are enduring the daily torture of US prisons. They also continue to make art. They often don't have the proper supplies and yet they make it knowing that it will never make it out to anyone else. But they continue to make art nonetheless. Keep making art
