I got to contribute some art for this! Incredible to be alongside so many talented artists and so much amazing writing. No prizes for guessing which class I got to illustrate here

Last week, I wrote about how Realis started: In a series of quick notes sent to a friend. From there it became a series of less quick notes put into an empty document. The document fileld up, and the words had turned into a little story-telling engine. www.clockworkworlds.com/one-week-unt...

you should not expect this site to last or to be stable. please get a blog or a website or a fediverse server or anything other than this, at LEAST as a backup but IDEALLY as your main posting place.

If the present war rouses among the reactionary Christian socialists, among the whimpering petty bourgeoisie, only horror and fright, only aversion to all use of arms, to bloodshed, death, etc., then we must say: Capitalist society is and has always been horror without end.

I've been lucky enough to meet Danika's mom a couple of times. She was so sweet and kind and funny, and I instantly saw so much of Danika in her. Please give them support during this crisis.

i booked a same-day flight to florence yesterday to be with my mom after she had a life-threatening heart event. she is very sick and remains in the ICU, and we were not prepared for anything like this. any shares and donations are so appreciated, thank you ❤️ www.gofundme.com/f/support-fo...

I'm home and I've written a bit on my blog about post-GDC feelings: meredithgran.com/gdc-thoughts...

new blog post: The Festival Of Gaming 2026 blog.dante.cool/the-festival...

had a wonderful week at the #FestivalOfGaming. Much better time than I expected. My highlights were meeting all of my heroes and making them my friends. My enemies remain on watch. If you would like to interface or synergize with me outside of GDC:Festival Of Gaming best of luck.

GDC's 2026 IGF winner calls out U.S. cruelty at home and abroad

Having been a Cohost poster clearly greatly improves your odds at the IGF. Update your priors accordingly.

big night for cohost legends winning IGF awards

Awesome time at the #FestivalOfGaming IGFs tonight. I did kind of win a little bit but to be honest the win really belongs to the Santa Ragione team and also @arden.rip, my good friend and HORSES' lead localizer

America wants to label swathes of human beings just like me and just like you as pornographic, as illegal, as degenerate freaks. But I'd rather be a freak than a fascist.

Sex workers and pornographers and erotic artists have been warning us about the encroaching tide of puritanical censorship for years, and their concerns have been dismissed because of who they are and what they make. But the tide of fascism is still rising, and this fight was never just about art.

Thank you so much to Santa Ragione and especially to Andrea for trusting me with the English script. And thank you to the Italian translation team at We Are Muesli for helping me navigate some of its unique, fascinating challenges. Thank you to the IGF Jury for seeing the beauty in the grotesque

The real education of the masses can never be separated from their independent political, and especially revolutionary, struggle. Only struggle educates the exploited class.

I finally lost my shit about so-called AIs, LLMs, enshittification & everything fucking evil that @officialgrammarly.bsky.social is doing. I'm fucking furious, and not just about what 1 company has done. An open letter to Grammarly & the rest of the LLM hype machine www.moryan.com/an-open-lett...

having a great time at GDC: Festival of Gaming (presented by Informa). #gdc #gdcFestivalOfGaming #FestivalOfGaming #Festival #Gaming #Of

I will be at GDC this year! Surprise. If you're also going to be at GDC and want to meet me/hang out feel free to contact me here or via email.

SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL IS GOING TO HAPPEN

Hatchet release order

seems bad

Nothing is stopping from continuing to use Windows, Linux has real pain points, but the trajectory is very clearly bad, shit will eventually become unbearable, and for a lot of people it already is.

Amberspire, our dice driven science fantasy city builder, will release MAY 6! Roll dice, grow a city, forge alliances, interact with an ecology, and read a history of the future. PC, Mac, Steam Deck - May 6! s.team/a/3350750

Power is in the hands of the banks, the trusts and big capital in general. The one guarantee of peace is the organised, conscious movement of the working class.

over a year ago, i gave a talk at the xoxo conference about a mural, a mcdonald’s, and a man. (but it was also secretly about life, and legacy, and meaning.) finally, i’m blogging the full story, with behind-the-scenes details, and a video of the talk. enjoy. cabel.com/wes-cook-and...
