youtu.be/SdjAn2Mczlk I've posted an update about how videos, lessons, and streams will work going forward. There is also a significant amount of Romeo content.

Worth noting that if the apology for the gem situation involves trading which person is “the bad one,” it’s not really growth. It’s saying “I’m sorry I picked the wrong team”

There is so so SO much I want to say, have wanted to say, and will want to say concerning this situation. It goes against every fiber of my being to hold my tongue further, but it is not my battleground. One thing I will say: with the information we currently have, I stand by Gem and his innocence.

boycott xbox.

Mandatory crunch time to complete a demo is not what we sign up for as video game workers, yet it's a reality we're all too familiar with as studio execs exploit our passion for the games that we create and love. And it won't stop unless we organize.

Oh Splatoon players are pissed that there are no tournaments and that the ones that exist are poor experiences but over the past two years there’s been a literal harassment campaign against TOs which included death threats and doxxing. When have I seen this before? *stares in 2021* *stares in 2017*

The games industry brings in 300 billion dollars a year. The guy who made DOOM gets his projects canceled, the guy who made Katamari Damacy is broke, everyone in your feed is begging for a job and there are 50 new games coming out on Steam every day all going towards buying Gabe Newell's next yacht

the dev can't flag this review anymore, but other users can. link to the review: steamcommunity.com/id/breakzora... cite Steam's policy back to them: help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view... "Do not direct abuse or insults at other players, developers, or groups."

Yo gamers why are you not talking about this more?????

Shareholders.

NEWS: I spent the past 24 hours going through major MAGA accounts on Twitter, and a bombshell development has become clear: most of the right-wing ecosphere is being fed propaganda from foreign actors. This impacts elections. This impacts discourse. This is major. Subscribe to support my work:

Y’all have a career path? I thought that was a joke D:

Our statement in solidarity with our fellow workers' ongoing protest against @rockstargames.com's gross union busting!

I could write a dissertation about Splatoon improvement from a coaching perspective, but instead of focusing on that, I want to talk about my journey as a player, which I don't speak to much anymore. I've never felt as competent, coordinated, and mechanically sharp as I did on my first team. 🧵

I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct. That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting. www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9nO...

UPDATE — Here are the at least 10 congressional Democrats, 5 Democratic-aligned organizations, and 6 Democratic Senate candidates calling for Chuck Schumer to resign as leader:

This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.

Bernie Sanders: "What this Senate is about to do is make a horrific situation even worse. So let's be clear what this vote is about. If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are gonna see at least a doubling in their premiums in the ACA."

Your local freelancer here.... if the ACA subsidies get axed, this is genuinely really scary. I'm very fortunate that I live in California where they also have subsidies at the state level, but many people in the other 49 will be priced out. Please call your reps!!!

The ACLU petition still hasn't reached it's signature goal? WHAT? That needs to change now. 200k signatures is nothing, let's GET IT. AT LEAST! action.aclu.org/petition/mas...

OVER A MILLION USERS DISCUSS SUICIDE WITH CHATGPT EVERY *WEEK* what the fuck are we DOING here

This is very difficult for me to do but I recently have been overwhelmed and facing a huge wall in my life. Any support big or small means a lot right now. If you can help out I’d appreciate it from the bottom of my heart. Wishing you all a good day.♥️💚 gofund.me/04ff5d06a

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

Rockstar union workers have set up a solidarity fund to help them survive and fight after 30 of them were fired in an attempt to destroy the union. Help them fight back! If you can, any little bit you can donate will massively help their efforts. actionnetwork.org/fundraising/...

TRANS RIGHTS ARE A WINNING POLITICAL ISSUE Every single centrist claiming we must all compromise our bodily autonomy for their personal comfort is a traitor to American democracy & rational human decency. They have no place in a modern Democratic Party, toss them out. Total liberation for all.

For everyone struggling, I can't recommend this resource highly enough. Everything is given freely, there is no selling/trading allowed. I've gotten everything from food, pet supplies, furniture (and given a lot of similar) I see a lot of folks sharing clothing + baby supplies buynothingproject.org

After so many months of hard work, our first big event Oktofest has finally happened and oh boy, it was a spectacle. It's been some of the busiest and most stressful days of my life but in the end, seeing everything come together was so nice to see. (1/5)

As someone who has been too stubborn to go to a food bank until recently despite struggling to pay my bills for a while, might I suggest on top of donating money+time to food banks, inviting your friends over for a meal more often and "hey Im going to the store do you need anything while Im here?"

Yes

They know the East Wing demolition is bad optics for them that’s why so many have suddenly “come to life” on this platform today armed w/inaccurate talking points about earlier renovations at the WH.

I have achieved the god level coaching setup.

If you're taking to the streets to protest today, know your rights.

Remember our mantra: Don't Engage, Just Block.

Hearthstone and Warcraft Rumble developers unionize to combat 'instability and unfair conditions'

The shorter games with worse graphics made by less people discourse is starting again and the nuance lost in this conversation is: we absolutely CAN make big, hyper-realistic games, sustainably. The problem -- and the money drain -- is executive pay, leadership overreach, mismanagement, and whims.

EA employees and UVW-CWA slam Saudi-led EA buyout, call for regulatory scrutiny

In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child. She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck. This is not about immigration enforcement. It's about terrorizing Americans.

The one and only @ninewholegrains.bsky.social has made a stats recap sheet from Week 1 of the Splatoon 3 North American League! Take a look. #S3NAL #CompSplatoon

What a goated selection for splat chat, I’ll be tuning in

hi, cis folks in california! this headline leaves out that newsom has another 5 days to sign these bills into law. if you’d like to tell him he should do that to protect trans californians, you should to reach out. he also has a phone: (916) 445-2841 want to know what to say? next post! 🧵

Hey all — if the horrors are too much to bear this week, as they have been for me, please take a few minutes to read this piece. It’s only a matter of action until the growing wave of community and humanity coalesces into the dominant narrative. Until then, you have to have faith that it’s coming.

Bad news feels inescapable. There’s a lot of it, it goes viral, and things are getting worse. But resistance is also everywhere, and it doesn’t get the same attention. We need to share mass resistance, to inspire hope and so that more and more people join in. www.jphilll.com/p/resistance...

Absolutely heinous.
