Good morning! I highly recommend anyone who thinks they might possibly interested to apply for my job at IGN. It is a fantastic (UNION!!!!!) job working with the absolute best people. I have loved it with all my heart. You will too. www.ziffdavis.com/careers/jobs...

BREAKING: Another person has died in ICE custody, per required notification to Congress, marking 15 deaths in detention this year and 45+ since Trump took office again.

Hell yes Jaya and the whole @feedravenous.bsky.social crew!!!! CONGRATS! So excited this is finally in the world. Indie forever!!!

is anyone else perpetually angry about the fact that lord of the flies was based on a true story but in the true story the Tongan boys who got lost relied on friendship and faith to survive more than a year lost on an island alone

i've been writing fiction 😏

“All authors are using AI now” Not true! A lot of us use THC

i don't have the ability to buy anyone a pizza right now. but if you reply to this with your cashapp/venmo/paypal/whatever, i will retweet it with the hopes that someone buys you a pizza. interaction settings opened.

a world without trans people has never existed and never will

Being anti AI has opened up some old habits I really miss like cutting out an article and taping it into my journal to read later

Happy International Transgender Day of Visibility! We're everywhere and we're cool. Here's the trans pride flag 🏳️‍⚧️ on a mid-90s Pentium running DOS.

They made pants that are too big and too small at the same time specially to piss me off

These last two silent hill articles are the only two stories on Mothership I have not read or edited and it’s only because @midimyers.com REALLY wants me to finish the games w/o spoilers

this interview is sooo goooood

Did you guys know you can jump in Pokopia. Why did I find this out after 20 hours. Am I stupid

A lot of writing is fighting a blank page. When writers buy notebooks & never use them I like to think of it as giving a round of the fight totemically so you can automatically win the next round in reality. In this way buying & not using notebooks is actually smart & part of the creative process.

Being outdoors is one of my passions, happy peak bloom DMV folk

REAL @nicolecarpenter.bsky.social hours at aftermath lately!!! loving these art stories <3

editing @cassmarshall.bsky.social on a 40k piece like the good old days? a dream

It pisses me off so much when I see those ChatGPT ads where someone gets advice for sticking to a running routine or opening a restaurant — all that information is stolen from folks who have done actual research studies, run trials, written blogs, published essays & books. Fucking thievery.

man i really killed it with this essay huh aftermath.site/the-new-game...

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard must answer whether Americans who use a VPN, which blocks a users' true location, risk being surveilled by the NSA. When the government wants our information, we have 3 words for them: Get a warrant.

i think sometimes cis people truly have a hard time understanding that jk rowling is a living person actively using her wealth to fund the international assault on trans lives. she’s not some Complicated Author we can have a spirited debate about separating from the art with!!!!!

yes, YES

Sick of this crap? Us too. Hit us up. 💪 uvw-cwa.org

i have never once opened the app Threads and seen a true statement. that place is absolutely batshit

this bike lane is truly the only reason you can get from petworth/columbia heights downtown without paying anything. my husband and i say to each other "make sure you take 15th" when we're going out on bikes bc it is genuinely unsafe to bike 14th or 16th or georgia or NORTH CAP are you kidding?!

BREAKING: Epic Games is laying off more than 1,000 workers today, sources tell Bloomberg News. Story hitting shortly

DEI this, DEI that, DEI is killing video games, blah blah blah: for woke week I spoke with a recent DEI manager at a AAA games company, to find out what leading a diversity team at such a huge studio actually involves, and what the challenges are:

If you get insanely mad about a post you saw online you are legally required to ask your neighbor if they need help carrying in the groceries. Sorry that’s the law.

I am so angry at this I can barely process it! Plain clothes men (allegedly ICE), refusing to identify themselves, kidnap a mother in front of her child AFTER they passed security… The era of the American Gestapo needs to end, and the era of the American Nuremberg trials needs to begin.

Seeing ICE detaining people at airports is so sickening and so are the details about the LGA plane crash. Just a fraction of the money they’re using to brutalize families could be spent on rehiring air traffic controllers, who they fired so they could brutalize more people
