Queer authors, if you will be publishing a book on ITCH DOT IO and/or KOBO PLUS between now and Dec 31, please make that book known to me below. Especially if you're not publishing on the Evil River! Pre-order link is best, itch profile is great (so I can follow you), or whatever ya got. 🌈📚

No A.I. is a rule in my game jam, not a request. It's a trust-based system, and I actively oppose any witchhunts. But please don't. If you use A.I., at all, please don't enter your game into my jam. It clashes so harshly with my core interests, efforts, and ethics. Please let us have this space.

Ways to help authors you love: - Review their books. - Share their posts. - Tell people about their books. - Learn the true name of the universe and manipulate it to make their book a bestseller. - Get your library to order in their books. - Ask local events to book them for appearances.

"Waaaah Nintendo will ban your console if you pirate a game." No shit? Xbox and Sony will too? "Wahhh Nintendo will soft brick your console if you buy a used game." No? Never have, never will?

All the people who are anti-AI or want to slow AI progress, I have one question: You want to hang out? I've got video games and tabletop RPG stuff. And board games. We could split some pizza and sides and stuff. Then we'll make some real art together.

Being anti-AI isn't enough. You should be pro-art, pro-artist, pro-writer, pro-worker. Don't expend all your energy tearing people down. Spend it lifting people up instead. Make their voices so loud, their art so visible, it drowns out the slop.

I do not want GenAI in fanart. I do not want GenAI in character design. I do not want GenAI in world design. I do not want GenAI in writing. I do not want GenAI in storyboarding. I do not want GenAI in voice acting. I do not want GenAI, period. If any piece of media uses GenAI, I don't want it.
