bugonia (2025)

I mean, this seems in-line with what they found about the wolves around Chernobyl. The rapid generational cycles made them more resistant to radiation.

Finally, someone updated @vornietom.bsky.social's classic Game Typology.

NUDE ELON MUSK: The invisible clothes I'm wearing are a product of xAthleisure, which will roll out self-dressing outfits within two years at the latest THE CREDULOUS PRESS: Fully Clothed Tesla Innovator Does It Again

Once again thinking about the series of articles @austinwalker.bsky.social ran at Waypoint about games in the carceral system. www.vice.com/en/article/a...

every video game ceo right now

4th day of the strike and the district supervisor isn’t budging yet. Please consider picking up my music or some of my games!

eXistenZ is a movie that anyone working in games should watch. Prescient in a lot of ways, it's also a story about a woman game designer who is getting chased by men who don't like how she designs games. (Yes, really.)

I can't help but be reminded of @lauracrone.nebula.tv's video on A Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy; how the 42-joke is more more complex than what fans usually make it out to be; and how the whole AI circlejerk might just be a torment nexus for the Deep Thought supercomputer.

Wow, they made a woke Paul Kingsnorth

And sometimes they are extremely good trailcams

"there's no good maga art" now lets not be hasty

The trans war flag. Had some fun with this! Deeper colours than the peacetime trans flag, square, with a guisarme on it- a peasant's weapon that's particularly good at fighting anyone rich enough to be on a horse, that you can use as a farmer's tool in peacetime.

New first person mod for Sekiro just dropped

Man, people should watch Derek Jarman's Blue (1993)

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

ChatGPT for dummies? uhhh yeah, who else is it for??

Democratizing the arts looks like universal income, low-barrier grants for both emerging and working artists, well-funded municipal arts & recreation programs, vibrant third spaces, and a well-funded public school system with progressive curriculum. Not a free pass for corporate-owned slop engines.

Love a new gender in the morning. Also, #thelockedtomb #tlt girlies better see this.

"you might stumble over a whole collective of people resisting in ways you didn't think of. There's a crew of carpenters just going around fixing kicked-in doors. There are tow truck drivers taking cars of detained people away for free...."

I'm coming around to the view that video games should simply not be adapted to the screen, both because those adaptations are still almost always bad but also because there's no mechanism for the industry to pay game developers for the reuse of their work in these shows.

Or sometimes the stick shift

Fun Fact: the vampire at the end of Demontower was named Pete after Peter Thiel

I love Tetris Effect

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back to a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” IT SAVES PUBLIC MONEY to house people.

you know what time it is. another valentines day right around the corner, another set of indie tabletop rpg valentines

I've just published a new userscript that remembers the path of your cursor over the linked pages of Wikipedia, averaging and wearing them into the page, showing your browsing history over time Install at greasyfork.org/en/scripts/5... or read more about it everest-pipkin.com#projects/des...

Colonialism had erased uncountable native cultures, but nowhere was it more egregious than taking Noepe from the Wampanoag people and calling it Martha's Vineyard. No wonder all the succeeding ghouls wanted to own islands and be unaccountable on them.

These numbers are terrifying and they are the reason why I'll never purchase a creative software through Steam.

May I suggest the music made by a Palestinian composer? It's none other than MARKSYE who you should be familiar with from games like Boyfriend Dungeon, Thirsty Suitors and more marskye.bandcamp.com

Every instance of "AI democratizes the arts, you're classist and ableist and a gatekeeper for trying to stop it" is a slap in the face to the literally centuries of poor, disabled people making art on the margins and a crass lie in service of a machine that strips down and regurgitates dreams

it's illegal to be queer in nigeria, but queer people still exist there (as they do everywhere). nigerian reporter ebenezer mowete spoke to queer local gamers about how they do and don't express their identities when they play --> www.mothership.blog/queer-nigeri...

Brings to mind the Ish/sewer bunker sequence from the first Last of Us. Similar environmental storytelling, but, you know, the direct opposite in how it concludes.

I know a @seaexcursion.itch.io illustration when I see one. Or I find them conspicuous enough to immediately check the contributors (and be proven right most of the times).
