OK, for a thing I'm working on I've been thinking a lot about this question recently. **Why keep making video games in a world on fire?** If that’s been on your mind too, and you’re open to talking about it, please feel free to reach out - either here or at [email protected]

I like Jimmy Kimmel. I really do. I have no issues with him. I'm talking about something very different. Kimmel was only suspended. But he's back now. Karen Attiah and all the other Black journalists are still fired. Y'all do know how to fight, when you want to. But you don't really want to. 🤷🏿‍♂️

everyone seeing how when you takeaway the DEI the planes start falling out of the sky

i just completed my first rough animating job!!! i learned a lot!!! i cant wait to do it again!

Engaging with art this way also means that your relationship to it changes as you change. Covid meant I stopped going to local/regional stuff (permanently, it seems) and my interest in the rural folklore and music that had so engaged me in years past felt less immediate and personal.

In videogames, picking up stuff to read and listening to audio logs isn't "bad" storytelling. It's supplementary info/worldbuilding and sometimes just meant to be fun. A metric ton of dialogue doesn't always make great narrative make but fleshes out the kind of world you're in. There's cines too.

And the casting call is now closed! 🔒 Thank you to everyone who auditioned. For those of you who didn't get a chance to, don't worry! There'll be other opportunities further down the road. The cast for the game will be revealed in future trailers. So be on the lookout! #indiedev #rock_e_rumble

“Trump’s orders are about controlling ideas that can be discussed in the classroom, limiting & censoring faculty & students, & codifying into law the prejudices of the past. This nation has overcome attempts at authoritarianism before. We will do so again.” www.insidehighered.com/news/governm...

Now more than ever.

That's right folks: the Trump White House is not only planning on kicking people off their health insurance, they ALSO are taking a firm stance in favor of "medical debt should be able to fuck up your life"
