I recently turned down on talk on "How I always stay employed", because I said that it's a question I'm not comfortable with - largely because anything after 2022 means the answer is "LUCK". We are not solely in a skill based Battle Royale right now.

it’s a personal taste thing so it’s whatever but i admittedly have a hard time relating to people who are totally unmoved by spectacle in the visual arts. spectacle kicks ass

Common masc tropes in fanfic using characters from Thor: The bisexual(?) himbo (Thor) The evil twink (Loki) The tall dark and mysterious avoidant (Heimdall) The much older man who likes telling everyone what to do (Odin)

This conversation about creating an AI man using female gaze is interesting bc when you’re part of the smut community, you understand that a lot of femmes are as kinky and horny (if not moreso) than their masc counterparts. Also far more creative and erotic than “kind, emotionally intelligent man“

No longer content with pillaging intellectual work and dismembering our environment (already critically weakened), AI companies are now hellbent on destroying books galore including rare editions. Shut down these nefarious enterprises already.

AI labs buy, scan, shred millions of rare books

If you have retreated to physical books because the internet is too full of AI slop, bad news — now they’re shredding the books to feed their AI slop machines.

I need all my content creator and video editor friends to know that your skills are marketing gold dust right now for game studios and if you want an industry job - esp. in high-quality short-form video - you need to get your ass on 👴🏻 LinkedIn and 🍄 @workwithindies.com and start looking posthaste.

AI writing is repetitive, as in it is overly reliant on specific words, phrases, ways of writing. So an overuse of em dashes would be more indicative of AI than just the presence of em. Or reusing the same words or phrases over and over again throughout. AI isn’t great at variation

Accusing people of using AI because the copy contains em dashes or uses big words is really a self own… Like yes, reveal to us the limits of your writing capabilities. But also, AI learns from people?? So, I truly don’t understand what that whole thing is about

I’m ngl Penelope tweaking off Odysseus had me kicking my feet and giggling. She was like So you want to marry me, huh? Do this thing only Odysseus can do, then! Oh wait, you can’t!!! You fuckin BUMS

For seven years, I've had the privilege of reporting on accessibility and the disabled perspective. And now, during my seventh Disability Pride Month in this industry, I'm left wondering if this beat is coming to an end. Read my first @skyboxcritics.com piece here: skyboxcritics.com/2026/07/28/t...

The vanishing art of disability reporting

As the games industry contracts, disability reporting is facing an extinction-level crisis.
