Any anxiety or stress you're having about climate change now demonstrably being on a societal collapse pathway should be sharing this. We all have to become protestors actively doing everything we can to transform the world and buy more time. Every war ended and pipeline shut down is less carbon

Revealed Major oil firms make $93 billion profits amid war and climate crisis. Iran conflict windfall over three months reignites calls for companies cashing in on human misery to pay for environmental damage

It's late as hell but I finally uploaded an interview on the @vgutv.bsky.social feed and YouTube channel that I am very very proud of. You all should be able to watch it once it starts appearing on your feeds and such in a few minutes. I'll talk about it in the morning, for I must sleep :)

Mourning the jobs that will be eliminated as a result of this. Also mourning the Titanfall, Alice, and Dragon Age games we will never get as a result of this. Also also mourning the few EA games that might one day release that won't seem appealing anymore due to the blood money that paid for them.

EA officially goes private tonight, meaning: - EA will no longer trade on the NASDAQ for the first time in 36 years - All stockholders of EA (including many employees) will receive $210/share - EA will take on $18 billion (!) in debt, putting it on the hook to pay ~$1.8 billion/year in interest

Devs, pay attention to who is actually, practically offering support to our laid off colleagues. It’s not the companies, it’s not the ESA, it’s the union, it’s us.
