Do NOT echo their talking points by trying to argue with them, ignore and block them on every platform you see them on so that their reach is contained as much as possible.

I think the most important lessons to be learned from Exército do Lula is how the logics of social media platforms *can be* strategically undermined by coordination and rallying around a handful of major talking points, alongside one simple, but crucial rule: do NOT engage with far-right accounts.

From coordinated social media campaigns to reclaiming national symbols, the online strategy mobilized many to vote for Lula, in an effort that experts say offers a striking example of how the Brazilian left learned to fight the right on its turf. https://cnn.it/48sYbEp

This looks GREAT! Easy yes to back it.

Do console exclusives matter? Sure. Are they ALL that matters? Absolutely not. Exclusives alone will not revitalize/save/whatever a console platform. So when, say, a $500M game going exclusive doesn't help much, well, sure. From Circana's Q3 2026 Future of Games Consumer Survey

A Kentucky man has secured a Title VII exemption so he doesn’t have to use AI tools in the workplace. Secular humanism is protected alongside theistic religious beliefs. This is brilliant. fortune.com/2026/10/30/k...

As bosses push workers to use AI, a Kentucky man found a way to opt out: a federal law protecting religious beliefs | Fortune

University of Kentucky administrator David Durman is the first Humanist to be granted an AI use exemption under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act.

This week has been absolute ass My husband lost his job (yay) I can’t really celebrate a game’s launch because of circumstances surrounding it… for the second time this year My TV dad died I don’t know when I’m going to be able to get my meds refilled at normal prices I need this to stop

… I’m so tired of this shit.

Sir Patrick Stewart was my TV dad. His performances on Star Trek: The Next Generation brought me immense comfort during a lot of childhood turmoil. His steadiness kept me grounded in the chaos and turmoil that was my childhood. If Captain Picard could keep his crew going, then I could do it too.

This is worth checking out! @amandafarough.ca has done some AMAZING writing in this game that is worth the price of entry by itself!

Congratulations to WDR and this talented cadre of developers on their first shipped game as a studio. I spent a couple of years working with this team on the narrative, which I was very proud of.

I’m forever an Until Dawn girlie, so whenever it’s spooky season, I feel the draw to go back to the frozen Albertan Rockies with those kooky kids.

CURSE OF RESTHAVEN IS OUT NOW on Steam, PlayStation, and Xbox! We made a weird, ambitious, deeply human (and 100% human-made) gothic mystery with a team of FIVE, and now it’s yours to unravel. Welcome to Resthaven. You’re not leaving. #CurseOfResthaven

But I should mention -- even if you're not Canadian, this is a pretty fascinating look at the evolution of acting in games, especially from a technical perspective. Hearing about the hardware limitations they had to work around leading up to modern high-tech performance capture was a real highlight.

Very excited to share my latest big project. 🧟 Many don’t realize, but outside of Capcom, a lot of talent behind the entire Resident Evil series is Canadian. For the 30th anniversary, I spoke with a dozen Canadian actors, directors and engineers who helped shape the series into what it is today.

The Canadian legacy of Resident Evil, 30 years later

Resident Evil is an iconic game series, but it has a surprisingly deep connection to Canada. 30 years later, we explore that legacy.

One of the hardest things about being someone who loves this industry and deeply UNDERSTANDS this industry is that I can't just focus on creating. Fundraising for a small studio takes up an enormous amount of time, so we have to spend huge chunks of every day while also trying to remain creative.

Welp. I'd had a tiny hope that my dental insurance would help but of course they paid not a cent. If anyone is able (and I mean ABLE) to help out, it would mean a huge amount. I was laid off from my job last month and this ate through all the extra savings I'd made before then. ko-fi.com/senabryer

journalists are very, very far from infallible but man a surprising number of people i otherwise respect hold surprisingly low opinions of journalists and how they work that are based on things that are partially or fully untrue

i think it would be good for many people, including those who confidently feel this does not apply to them, to check in with their views on journalism and ensure they are reflecting reality and aren't being (unintentionally!) shifted by subtle leakage of certain internet cultures into mainstream

Exciting to read as we barrel towards launch in 2 days! Don’t take our word for it: “Not only do I love this game enough to want to dive back in immediately, but I simply must play more because there are multiple endings to this single-player narrative roguelite.” opheliapayne.com/2026/10/27/c...
