So happy we had this conversation (it's been due for a long time). "No matter how hard you try to gentrify the internet or to control computers, there's this fundamental layer, the core of it, that's not control. It's too late to take that away."

there’s just one day left for this bundle. it’s halfway to its goal. please keep sharing and spreading the word about it. every bit helps. no effort is wasted effort. thank you!! 🙏

We’re at $93/400!! We’re still dealing with a $150 overdraft and need critical meds; can we keep boosting to get this resolved? #MutualAid #MutualAidBoost

Wow the need for a movement-spanning refresher on protest/civil disobedience feels rather critical right now. Like at least in the "protest and civil disobedience involves risk of harassment by authorities, arrest, imprisonment or violence and you need to decide how to manage your risk" 101 level?

Hey friends! So if you've been keeping up with this account you know we have hit some hard times this week. We are going to make it through, but if you can spare a couple bucks to help us out it would mean the world to Nora and me.

Wrote about Bloober Team's latest, which is actually pretty good?!?

we have a traitor within our ranks

We played the ORIGINAL survival horror and watched the movie it was tied in with. We had a great time!

This game is so cool… it’s kinda wild how basically every piece of the survival horror game feels fully formed here.

This evening we're recording our episode on SWEET HOME. Feel free to send any questions to [email protected]!

I know this will change no one’s mind, but I would like to state, for the record, that I would not have gotten early access to Silksong lmao.

Outside the ICE facility in Broadview, IL this morning— Masked agents in unmarked cars are arriving at work. DHS will be using the de facto detention center as their main "processing" site for the impending Chicago ICE surge. Protesters are gathering, with a large number of press here as well.

Pleased to have such a thorough and thoughtful reflection on TIER, it really reflects the scale of what we can do!

‼️ URGENT HELP NEEDED ‼️ Our rent is due today and we still need $1250 to make our goal. My 30th birthday is on the 7th and all we want is for this to be taken care of. Please help out two disabled trans people! #MutualAid #MutualAidBoost #TransCrowdfund

Criticism is dying, for video games and all arts, and by foregoing reviews Silksong helps speed up the process, writes @gracemachine.bsky.social. www.endlessmode.com/article/silk...

Many amazing games included in this bundle, for a cause that sorely needs it - what relief we hope to provide through this must go in concert with calls and actions toward justice; peace is not enough, peace does not stand up to the shame of what’s been done. The arc of history needs hands to bend.

Was on my friends’ show to talk about Killing Our Gods. It gets existential very fast lol, but we still have a lot of fun.

Been at 253/1500 for a few days, we only have six days left to pay rent and we could use all the help we can get boosting!! #MutualAid #MutualAidBoost

The Guardian has today printed the names, and where possible, images, of all the media workers killed in Gaza, as part of an international day of action involving more than 150 media organisations. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

Been at 233/1500 and we only have a few days left to pay our rent. We could really use any help we can get boosting this post! #MutualAid

Here's an old, unmasked photo of 7880. He's worked for the Chicago ICE field office since at least 2018 (when these photos were posted). If you believe you know his name, please reach out.

We're up and running with exciting work.

For the first essay in our Interactive Fiction issue, @highimpactsex.bsky.social writes about the shrinking available space for personal art through the metafiction of Repeat the Ending.

“We cannot solve these problems by continuing to put police & people with guns in our community…We talk time & time again about how crime is down, but the truth is, no matter how low crime is, we will always be viewed as criminals in this country until there is restoration & reparation done.”

Wrote about things I learned to type with, ended up pontificating about the importance of pleasure when you are learning something.

Damn, we've really come a long way since @blackliqwoftd.bsky.social and I were banging out ASH HAS HASH AND NINE PINTS OF GUAVA JAM in Keyboarding class.

I figured out that I had not set up the DNS of this email properly. I am so sorry if you tried to contact me (or I tried to contact you) and you didn't get through. Please reach out again! I don't have anything on the docket, but I fully plan to continue writing and pitching about these issues.

Israel is carrying out the largest massacre of journalists & media workers in modern history,& the most dangerous attack on the ideal of a free press in the modern era. Donate to the IFJ Safety Fund to support our colleagues & sibling union, the Palestinian Journalists Syndicate. bit.ly/supportPJS

I spoke to filmmaker Reid Davenport when he was on the road with his new film, Life After. Check out our conversation in @truthout.org here:

If you are an Xbox developer who would like to confidentially share your thoughts on the current climate at the company my DMs are open. You can also reach me on Signal (pinned post) or via email (in bio).

NEW: During an interview at the Xbox booth on the Gamescom show floor, I attempted to ask a veteran Obsidian developer for their thoughts on making video games at Microsoft amid layoffs and widespread criticism over the company's links to Israel. I was immediately shut down.

I feel like sometimes freelancers get left out of the discussion when it comes to industry woes. Usually nothing as dramatic as a layoff happens to us. It’s more like… work just kind of dries up, people reaching out about jobs become fewer and farther between, budgets get lower and lower

Microsoft employees occupy headquarters in protest of Israel contracts. The protest encampment started today, and it’s the biggest escalation of the protests at Microsoft so far www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Farrah. Farrah was engaged to Muhanad when the war started and they had just bought a small apartment to start their lives together. It was destroyed before they could move in. They married despite the chaos and are now just trying to survive

We’re getting hit with some unexpected, unwarranted charges and the overdraft is about $150. We could use URGENT help taking care of it before this starts to really spiral out of control. #MutualAid #MutualAidBoost #MutualAidRequest

Excited to be co-editing projects like this with @gracemachine.bsky.social and with the wonderful support of @iftechfoundation.org!

90/150!! Can we get boosted so we can hopefully meet our goal today? We’re still low on needs like food! #MutualAid #MutualAidBoost #TransCrowdfund

It is sort of wild to see a major cultural figure, after so much hemming and hawing from most people in her position, just tell the truth and make unpretentious material sacrifice towards that truth.
