Holy cow

Wat een briljante cartoon.

Mainstream journalists are abdicating their duty. Cartoonists are the real heroes of the moment.

Sisyphus but every day he unsubscribes from marketing and promotion emails.

Something I didn’t get about capitalism before reading a lot of Marx is that the dynamic driving companies isn’t just to make profit but to be making more profit at a higher rate than everyone else. To do that you need to invest more than everyone else and work on a larger scale...

When movies were shot on physical film, the film was measured in feet. This is why any recorded thing is now called ‘footage.'

Please repost and share far and wide: we are 43 backers away from 1000 backers! It would be SO NICE of we would reach that magical number before our Kickstarter closes. Are you one of those 43 last backers? ❤️😍❤️ www.kickstarter.com/projects/spe... #videogames #indiegames #indiedev #kickstarter

If Donald asks Zelensky for anti drone systems, he better wear a suit, ask nicely and say thank you.

Het leuke van bluesky versus twitter is dat ik hier een dagtaak heb aan het blokken van vogelaars en insectenliefhebbers in mijn feed. Een goed probleem om te hebben lijkt mij.

Why DS9 holds up so well.

Lots of games deserve attention at nextfest, I've been super charmed with All WIll Rise. it is the type of protest game that should define our times. Not the brainrot. store.steampowered.com/app/3165340/...

De gamejournalistiek dreigde uit Nederland te verdwijnen Daarom zijn we vandaag met Unpause begonnen. Een gamesite die van onszelf is, zonder uitgever. Ons verdienmodel is simpel: onze lezers kunnen abonneren. Kom lezen, en steun als je wil en kan! www.unpause.nl/verhalen/nie...

Heard an interview today where a guy said (and I'm paraphrasing) "LLMs have had years to train on every aspect of chess, read every book and article about it, review every match, but when they play, they STILL makes illegal moves. That tells you everything." And. Yup.

(1/11) If you live in NY, you’ve probably started seeing a new warning: “THIS PRICE WAS SET BY AN ALGORITHM USING YOUR PERSONAL DATA.” This mandatory disclosure went into effect late last year, and it’s the first attempt by a US state to grapple with a new generation of surveillance pricing.

The entire AI debate in a nutshell..

This is most certainly something that will rattle @henklooijesteijn.bsky.social 's cage phys.org/news/2026-02...

And here's how I suddenly went on a hunt for a black outline shoulder tattoo

This video from costume company Total Fabrication provides a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of a Pac-Man costume that would be used by Namco in the late 1990s for events such as E3.

Bye forever, WeTransfer.

Amen.

Reading Agatha Christie's lesser work does show you how much of what counts as "fair play" in mysteries depends on the assumption of shared social context. Just read a short story where the crucial clue was, as Miss Marple says, "Gardeners don't work on Whit Monday. Everybody knows that."

I find myself thinking about historian Robert Paxton’s 2004 definition of fascism far too often than I’d like these days. Note that these sentences were written back when Donald Trump was a NYC playboy libertine who donated to Democrats.

Late to the party by 52 years, but boy, Arthur C. Clarke's Rendezvous With Rama is one hell of a sci-fi people. Tense, well-structured, with Newtonian science propping up the fiction, the way the sci-fi writing gods intended. And there's three more Rama books! #hapyreading #scifi

The complete Bayeux Tapestry has finally been released and proves that Bishop Odo had absolutely nothing to do with the illegal Norman invasion of England.

This thread is so true. GenAI as a tool has its advantages, but it’s just one of many. Inspiration isn’t always found online, AI has no grip on 98 percent of the human cultural experience and does not understand what your project needs, like: never.

I'm sharing this here, as I have on Facebook and Instagram, but there's no account on here to share from, and I just think this is wonderful. A really good balance of design and implementation, and appears to achieve everything it set out to do, and it *SO* appeals to my inner 'work nerd'.

Recently, fellow game writer and narrative designer Konstantine Paradias reached out for a chat on all things narrative. It's such an honor and a pleasure to sit with your peers and discuss the trade at length. Enjoy the video everyone! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qk2f...

Ok I laughed

Ok, so, once more: If you can count it, it's "fewer". If you can't, it's "less." Example: "I need fewer apples to finish this recipe than I thought." BUT "I have less patience than I used to."

“Forbidden advent calendar” lol

I wrote this huge, 3,000-word or so deep dive into the state of game actors’ contracts in the UK, which is a hot mess of exploitation, AI clauses and chaotic rate calculations. And no one read it. But you really, REALLY should. www.gamesindustry.biz/contracts-fo...

At about $60K that's about 128 million graduate team indie games, at $150K about 500,000 small indie games, at $300K about 250,000 mid-size debut indie games, or at around $950K about 110,000 indie games by a team of more experienced devs. There are a total of 110,000 indie games on Steam.

kind of obsessed with this custom binding for Moby dick by Susan and Chaim Ebanks at Exeter Bookbinders

We might have a winner

Probably gave an arm for science

adding ‘artisanal flaming’ to my hobby list

in 1st century Judea, the corners of every field had to be left for the poor to pick crops for themselves, every seventh year *all* of the crops from fields and vineyards and orchards belonged to the poor, and all debts of all types were cancelled every 50th year.

I learned something today. Which is how this website should always work btw

This if your friendly reminder to put more than one video game book on your 2025 Gaming Gift Guide.

More than inspiration, writing a book requires discipline. There are days I feel highly driven, only to get nowhere. Similarly, there are mornings I feel off, yet end up making massive leaps. If you want progress, don’t trust your feelings. Trust discipline ✍️ #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #BookSky
