Finally recovered from a week of covid. Crochet (and photo editing) kept me sane.
US folks - call your reps TODAY and tell them to oppose KOSA. If you don't want to be forced to use your legal ID on the Internet, or let the US govt have a hand in censoring content they deem "inappropriate", make your voice heard. 5calls.org/issue/kids-o...

Trans people are harming no one. They aren't starting wars, they aren't stealing tax dollars for vanity projects, they aren't destroying democracy, they aren't undoing health and safety standards for corporate cronies. The people making these fucking laws are the ones doing all that.
Birds Are Dinosaurs@birdsaredinosaurs.bsky.social · 2mo agoMy fellow cis folks, The FCC is asking Americans to submit comments about whether the TV Oversight Management Board (TVOMB) should create new TV ratings to alert viewers to trans/gender content. Time to be an ally and tell the FCC absolutely the fuck not. It takes five minutes to do.
my one big takeaway from this years pile of Showcases is that Unreal Engine 5 has co-opted or sort of, I dare say, polluted the visual language of games, where nothing stands out theres a kind of mediocrity that comes with being "photorealistic I guess". PBR substance everywhere, but not distinct
The "Legacy of the Sith" finale is live! It's been a privilege to help shape the 4+ years of this @swtor.com chapter alongside our incredible team. It's tough to make a game these days, but we took every challenge and setback in stride. Everyone who touches this project does so with love 💜 MTFBWY!
It’s finally here 😭 The team poured so much energy into this finale. It’s wild to see how everything has progressed since 7.0. I don’t have all the words to explain how I feel right now but I have a lot of love and pride for team SWTOR. Enjoy 7.9 💜

@akacaitlin.bsky.social has this incredible ability to write characters that ooze aura on the page. Definitely one of my favorite short stories for SWTOR, and a wonderful preamble to the LotS finale ✨

Best advice on networking: Focus on being interested not interesting. People who are the loudest in the room are NOT the people you want to network with.
Kieran@toadally.bsky.social · 4mo agoI don’t “network,” I make friends. Other artists are not my competition, they’re my beloved peers and sources of inspiration. We all have the same goal; to share our art. I’m not gonna corporatize my human relationships with them. I am in my sandbox playing and I hope they join me.

The Force is strong with these ones! Had a magical trip to the @swtor.com office to meet with the team that has been making this incredible MMO for almost 15 years. I brought the holocron Brad made for me; they brought BBQ and sweet tea, great conversation, and a poster signed by the devs.

Getting mad about other people’s pronouns is like getting mad about seeing someone riding a bike in a color you don’t like. What is the most it could possibly inconvenience you? Someone walking by asks you what color the bike is and you have to say “lime green”? Heavens forfend
