Not sure what to write about? Here are some ideas for #notGDC Did you see/hear something cool in a game you played, that others may have missed? Do you have a favourite technique in your discipline? Is there a tool that you wish existed? What do you do to work around it right now?

Now more than ever we need somewhere to share knowledge. A place free from AI zealots, and late-stage rapacious capitalism. A place that is safe to travel to without the threat of detention and state violence. *music swells*
