I cannot think anything that's worse for morale being an xbox studio with an upcoming release knowing that this is going to be the reward for crunching the game out the door.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2d agoNew in PN: Moderate Democrats have a choice to make "They can spend the next three months reinforcing Republican messaging about their party & making it less likely Dems take power. Or they can put the 'battle for the soul of the party' off for a while and do what they can to help their party win."
Come on, man. MAHA are cranks, influenced by other cranks. They are anti-science loons and are behind why we have to re-litigate COVID. You do not, under any circumstances, have to hand it to them.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@ocasio-cortez.house.gov · 2d agoThere is pervasive corruption across our healthcare and agricultural systems that defy party lines. I meet with MAHA activists because a lot of their concerns are bipartisan issues that major corporations paint as partisan. The fight isn't left and right, it's top and bottom.
Anyway anyone who votes republican who enabled this needs to apologize first. Under no circumstances do you have to extend an olive branch or invite them to anything. They can apologize first and maybe we can work something out.

For @aftermath.site's Hater Week, I wrote about how deeply I hate Adobe aftermath.site/i-hate-adobe/
I Hate Adobe
Adobe is a wretched, exploitative company that loves generative AI. Many are coerced into paying money for their software and the software runs like garbage.

Not only should this be illegal but if you have ever put down a deposit a vehicle like this you should lose your drivers license, right to vote, and right to bear arms, and be ineligible to take out bank loans or credit cards.

This is really good and gets to the core of things: The people at the top of the video game chain don't know how or care to make video games.
lincoln carpenter@lincolnhello.bsky.social · 3w agoNew from me: "Being engaged in videogames over the last decade has meant watching a cohort of publisher executives inherit an industry of products, professionals, and consumers they seem to actively resent for failing to produce instant, infinite profits."
I was never part of SA (forking over $10 just to be banned at whim didn't sit with me), so all these videos have been really illuminating. MLYP does a really good job and is worth supporting.

1. fuck yes 2. every time i think of Hahn is so funny. at the time as a little kid i didn't really know what a fiance was, and he kept going on about it, and based on that and his looks i ended up going "oh she's a girl that's with a girl". and i was apparently not the only one who did this

The beautiful game. The people’s game. Throughout this World Cup, we have been reminded of a simple truth: football belongs to everyone. So does the joy and community it creates. Yesterday, I joined New Yorkers on Rikers Island to watch England take on Argentina.
ive been wondering when (and if) this would start to happen. if trump people are not going to do the traditional thing handlers do with braindead presidents, namely hide them away like reagan and biden, then it's up to the rest of us to hide his shame for him
