Australia likes to think its history is untainted by slavery but a new book traces how a who’s who in the NSW capital profited from the capture and sale of ‘blackbirded’ Pacific Islanders

Happy 40th birthday, Metroid! I made this in 2021 while playing Dread. I used to do lowpoly stuff a long time ago, so coming back to the 3D modeling workflow was nice after doing pixel art for so long. #Metroid #lowpoly #b3d

Since apparently this isn't making it beyond UK news yet, Rockstar petitioned a British court to section an 18 year old autistic kid under the mental health act for hacking their server and leaking a short GTA 6 clip a couple of years ago. No trial, no term of sentence, just locked up in hospital.

Judge says hacker remains a high risk through his skills and motivation to carry out cyber-crime.

Locking up an autistic kid in a mental hospital for life for leaking a clip of a game is bullshit. Guess I'm never playing a Rockstar game again.

Yep we need to die in this hill. Intentionally misgendering someone is transphobic, doing to repeatedly in a workplace is harassment.

Good. Look, if it is a genuinely honest error, most people I know, including myself, aren't going to make a fuss beyond maybe a gentle clarification first time. If people wilfully misgender trans and non-binary individuals though they absolutely should face misconduct proceedings.

So that was Sonic 2's Badniks! This game comes out with an average of 8.239/10. I feel like a lot of the cast was trying to iterate in ways that did not always land, though it is still a strong selection! This was the #badnikreview, toodles!
