Our two investigations into Madison Square Garden are now unpaywalled and free for anyone to read.

I can think of a few different versions of this. Whether it's small scale like "I don't want to believe this person I'm friends with would treat women this way," or as big as, y'know, *gestures at a certain virus*

Please pay attention to how “I don’t want to think about it anymore” slip-slides so gracefully into “it’s not happening,” and ask yourself if there are any other recent unpleasant issues where this might have occurred.

why is it called romance of the three kingdoms if they were trying to kill each other

bc this is how they court. thats why theres all that talks about courts and shit

Been waiting for the Tin Tin sequel for a long time. I think it will still happen since the script was confined complete- can’t believe the first one was in 2011.

Just the other day, I banned someone from an art community that had clearly been using an AI to generate an ad for some product. Their appeal was that "all" they did was use it to translate into English from another language. I don't think they had any idea what the LLM did to their tone or words.

I don't want to have a gap of time without my eye medicine so please take a look at my art and consider throwing me a ko-fi with a short picture idea. The medicine is around 220 bucks and I haven't been able to save the way I'd like for it. Here are some previous pictures from doing this:

NEW: After ProPublica and @texastribune.org revealed Ken Paxton repeatedly voted while registered at an address where he appears to no longer live, Democrats called for an investigation into whether the Texas attorney general committed election fraud.

There's a reason why we now are selling physical media and why they're being bought!

Urgent freelance art commission! My previous arrangement has fallen through, so I need someone who can look at this sad lil' placeholder kaiju and whip up a proper, looming, nicely lit and atmospherically appropriate monster I can place into this same composition. Feel free to reply here- THREAD 🧵

The Terminator, loosely around that same age. I didn't get a lot of it but thought it was cool.

whats really funny is how he thinks the really amazing bit is his donation

When journalists asked me "where we will see the effects of DOGE on outcomes?" one of my responses was "during crises...as long as media connect the dots." Well, dots connected: www.wired.com/story/cdc-cy...

NEW: Aurora Police say an ICE detention center employee shot a protester last night. She is expected to survive. 42-year-old Brandon Booth, who works for the ICE contractor GEO Group, is being held on suspicion of attempted second degree murder and other charges.

zhang yimou's romance of the three kingdoms

I would sign up to watch any of these. Put Guillermo del Toro on Beowulf and maybe we'll finally get a good one. The key, it will turn out, is make Grendel fuckable.

Did you know that David Lynch directed a Duran Duran concert? And it's on DVD? Well, you do now! mzs.press/Duran-Duran-... mzs.press/Duran-Duran-...

if you could, please consider sending what you can to help trixie out even a few dollars would make a difference, not having power for any length of time during this hot summer would be horrendous

a good day for buying good games

Sourcing your articles from a Bsky thread, not crediting the poster, then pretending you got all your info from the original sources is nasty work, you keep doing you, games media

I am now OPEN TO WORK. I've been told I'm a pleasure to have in class, and also that I bring a kind of 'major freak who can also make you cry' energy to the writer's room. I can neither confirm nor deny that I was the reason we had to eventually make a 'No More Puns' rule on ZP.

Blanksword is one of the coolest pieces of art I've ever worked on and you can get the demo for free on steam RIGHT NOW and hear my voice in it !!!! store.steampowered.com/app/3484670/...

Leaving reviews helps a lot too, if you're playing, or have played it - pleasantly surprised to see so many so far on PlayStation store.playstation.com/en-us/produc...

Moss: The Forgotten Relic is out across multiple platforms (Steam, Switch 1 & 2, Xbox, PlayStation 5) and doesn't require VR to play. If you're interested, please wishlist it or let friends (and their little ones) know that it's available for future gifting. Thanks much, every mention helps!

"aren't more effective" is such a weird way to say this is it "as effective" or "less effective"?

I'm one of the folks affected. *Many* on the list are gifted; their work was crucial to the weird little miracle that is ZP. Please, consider hiring them. Dust is still settling on my end, but my inbox is open.

The way Zero Parades exists culturally not as a video game but as a signifier of specific industry practices and drama and is engaged with exclusively through that lens is incredibly disheartening to me.

The rash of AI replacing games that it can't really do is now making me wonder about other kinds of automation. Like, I've always assumed that the robot welder arm that replaced 100 human welders at the car factory was, at least, good at welding cars, but I don't actually know that.

The throughline of everything that's happened at ZA/UM since the release of Disco Elysium is the incuriosity and boundless contempt executives have for their own workers, their customers, everyone.

yeah i’ve seen a bunch of people say things like “sucks for the devs but it’s great seeing za/um get what it deserves. L bozo” as if that isn’t the most ethically, ideologically, philosophically, and metaphysically incoherent opinion you could possibly have on something like this

Here are some commissions I just finished for an update to 60 Years in Space for @andrewdoull.bsky.social Had a ton of fun doing these, so hit up my pinned post if you'd like to commission me!

Good news, for once! The saliva test for endometriosis is available in the UK. I assume it’ll be more of a fight to get it available here because OB/GYNs make more money doing surgery to find out if you have it. people.com/endometriosi...

stand by the workers, always

If I see any of you cheering for the ZA/UM layoffs I am gonna bite your head off

What if winter
