I’ve been listening to @doctorow.pluralistic.net’s Enshittification and it is SO effective at explaining why companies are terrible and how to fix it. So effective, in fact, that i have to pause frequently to scream aloud & delete apps/cancel subs so I haven’t yet reached the part on how to fix it.

A mysterious figure from Atsu’s past and The Battle to End All Battles. I cannot wait for you to fall in love with this. I did. 💛 PLUS NEW ROGUE-LIKE GAME MODE WITH SOME OF MY FAVES????

14 years ago I wanted to work with Blizzard so badly, I got myself hired as a figure model for the drawing classes and drove 3 hours+ to/from Irvine every week. Now after hosting at Blizzcon, voicing characters, and making lifelong friends on the teams, I support making Blizz BETTER for them. 💜

This week, Microsoft GUTTED Bethesda, Zenimax, iD, & more. The C-suites treat the workers who make the games we love as disposable and don’t care they’re destroying the future of the industry! Let them know it has to STOP here: feedbackportal.microsoft.com/feedback/ide...

One way you can show Microsoft your concern is here through the XBOX Player Voice feedback platform: feedbackportal.microsoft.com/feedback/ide...

Yesterday’s layoffs at Bethesda Games Studios were not a cut of “14 layers of management”. We lost dozens of programmers, artists, designers and testers. Many of whom worked at BGS for decades.

If Bethesda fans are worried this will harm the quality of our future games, like TES VI, let Microsoft know!

I’ve been laboring over a simple writing task for HOURS which feels bad, but I’d rather spend a whole day trudging through the thick sludgy cement of my ADHD brain than to let some algorithm hork out a soulless pastiche of human thought!
