Haley Stevens drops out of the race, endorses Abdul El-Sayed, and announces she's going to voice Shinji in a new Neon Genesis Evangelion dub from Vinegar Syndrome.

i saw a clip of the upside down kiss from raimi spider man and it’s crazy how much more horny that is than anything in the MCU

Starting something new today! Never got to do one of these before. Very grateful to the team for having me for the next several months.

I'm weirdly upset by Stevens's gracious concession, because it makes her lie from just a few days ago that AES harbors personal animus against Jewish ppl all the more transparent. We should discourage lying to inflame tensions against two targeted religious minorities for personal political gain imo

You should really play these. I promise they're good.

watched a seagull pull a bag of rice crackers out of some dude’s unattended bag at the pool & as he flew into the sunset with his prize a lifeguard walking by goes “yeah, that’s steven. he’s notorious”

"The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson v2.8: Players no longer lose durability on equipment when dodging attacks.

PSA: It's even worse. Craig not only operated a revenge porn website, but he also was engaging in racketeering by secretly running several shell companies that offered a paid service that would remove your revenge porn *from the revenge porn distro sites he owned*.

Does everyone here know that @craigbrittain.com, who is currently masquerading as an anti-MAGA warrior, was fined in 2016 for operating a revenge porn website? A *lot* of y’all follow him. ⚠️ Marked as unsafe. ⚠️ www.ftc.gov/news-events/...

I can't believe these fucking weirdos want to relitigate COVID on social media, the place for relitigating the 2016 primaries

The S in KOSA is for surveillance

Anthony Moser@anthonymoser.com · 3d ago

By all means. I would add that we know it's a surveillance bill bc it's supported by surveillance companies. OpenAI makes software that encourages kids to harm themselves, X runs a CSAM generator. They are not motivated by kids safety, they just want more data on everyone

Went to an arcade in Halifax that had a framed portrait of Shigeru Miyamoto looking like he's about to be at the center of a murder mystery in the pacific northwest

never thought short form video would be able to capture a type of humor i can only describe as “the far side-esque” but this comes close.

It’s through the time and effort of our union members that we’re able to offer support to the entire industry. If you’re a dev based in the US or Canada, check us out and consider signing up. We’ve got lots of work to do! 🫡 uvw-cwa.org/membership

You’ve helped us raise over 80k for laid off gamedevs in need so far, and we still have plenty of time left in the bundle’s drive. Everyone who organized this effort was doing so on their own time for the benefit of others. If these companies wanted to, they would. They don’t. We do. Join us. ✊

RIGHT: we're poisoning society to death so it can be replaced with one that exists only to enable our violent fantasies LEFT: we must strengthen society by expanding social services and expelling those who seek to kill it CENTER: so... the right gets what? nothing?? come on. let em kill it a little

btw if the ESA or any of these studios wanted to put together an initiative to provide financial relief to laid off game workers, they have ~$60M in total assets that they could allocate towards one. They're welcome to reach out to me if they need info on how to set one up.

Shayna Moon (she/they)@themoonis.gay · 4d ago

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.

Damn... 300% higher yields for peppers 200% for tomatoes. 65% lower water use for jalapenos. #agsky #agrivoltaics ,🌱🌞🔌..

*American farmers slid solar panels over 62,000 acres of farmland, and the biggest payoff had almost nothing to do with electricity* #Erneuerbare #Renewable #Solar #Photovoltaik energiesmedia.com/solar-panels…

I agree strongly with this -- in that difficult moment, the possibility of collective effort was conceivable. Not everybody felt it, but many did. I think the political class did not like this one bit.

Dave Andress@davidandress.bsky.social · 3d ago

Covid lockdowns demonstrated, in a deeply imperfect way, the possibility of large-scale social solidarity for a higher cause. That is a prime reason why so many powerful people want us to run screaming away from them into the comforting arms of selfish individualist competition.

good morning good morning 💚

people need to understand that games on steam largely do not ‘underpeform,’ they either hit the algorithmic tipping points and become viral successes or they do not exist. they sell bad day at a garage sale numbers. this is a reality constructed and encouraged by valve

i have an oomf that worked at a small studio making a fun game that also used poker in creative ways for gameplay and storytelling and was in the same next fest as balatro, and i think friends in our discord were the only ones who bought it and the studio closed immediately

i love how common the we need more games like [massive longshot million to one success] to save The Industry is as a take. sounds both sustainable and possible to plan for

Good thread about recent discussions

You should definitely apply to Shortbox Comics fair
