Translators really do deserve royalties 🫀

Heads up that @discord.com has added built-in AI remixing tools for any and all image content that is posted to their service. You cannot (from anywhere I can find) deactivate it or remove it. Yet another company dumping AI features on users that never asked for them, at the expense of artists.

The games industry truly doesn't deserve all of the talented people it has lost, and will continue to lose. I'm so sorry for everyone who is impacted with every layoff; you deserve far better.

I hope every laid off dev who poured their soul into a project understands and allows themselves to recognize that you need to grieve after. Like, seriously grieve. It's a loss, a big one, and if you don't process it like grief, it will get stuck inside and rot, like any trauma.

This is, I guess, as good a time as any to let friends here know I was laid off this week and that I'm looking for work. I have 15+ combined years in games marketing, narrative, writing, & bizdev. So, hey, if you know anybody hiring, my DMs are open.

love to everyone effected by the ongoing murder of the video game industry

BREAKING: Warner Bros. Games is shutting down Monolith Productions, Player First Games, and WB San Diego, sources tell Bloomberg News. Warner Bros. is also canceling the Wonder Woman game.

Yes, the news is true. I’m a free agent and open to opportunities. Almost two years pouring my heart into the Wonder Woman game. #RIPMonolithProductions I fucking refuse to share that ghouls article and do not send it to me if you value not being verbally flayed to the bone.

One of those days where I randomly remember that one Vocaloid lyrics wiki editor that threatened to sue me when I was 14 because "I wasn't a native Japanese speaker". Anyway I have an N2 now and work on Japanese games professionally so I guess he was wrong

This song has been stuck in my head for months and it took forever to typset it too 😩 youtu.be/0jtXnSP0OlE

one of my favorite parts of the SAG Awards

I also dipped my toe into subbing, coding and translation last night and uploaded for the first time in three years youtu.be/r8CH25-i8Ac?...

Yeaaaaahhhh, so I got a website now... so hooray! It's more of a blog and collection of translation stuff but feel free to browse 2bricacitytranslations.com

Did some gym stuff today!

People on Twitter complaining about lower engagement on Bluesky is a specific kind of influencer culture brain rot because I’m like my sibling in Christ the numbers aren’t real

Ryu the JAPANESE man isn't DEI? Kimberly the BLACK woman isn't DEI? Chun-Li the CHINESE woman isn't DEI? Dhalsim the INDIAN man isn't DEI? Elena the KENYAN woman isn't DEI? This is the stupidest shit ever I swear to God

I woke up today feeling extremely happy and gotta say, it's nice

Happy 45th Birthday, HAL Laboratory! The company was founded by Mr. Mitsuhiro Ikeda on this day 45 years ago! 🥳🎂

I've also started investing in makeup and some nice lotions and serums and stuff to pamper myself. Beginning to do some self-love is nice because you sometimes forget to treat yourself

Saw Captain America with my family as watching Marvel movies is a family tradition. It was a nice break from reality 😌

If you're trying to figure out what to do right now, my advice is to just pick a thing that you think might be useful in some way, however small, and do it. Doing a thing leads you to doing another, bigger thing, and prepares you for that next thing.

Happy Valentine's Day!💘 (Or Night...?) Zagreus is handy with that heart-seeking bow on this occasion, while Melinoë's still learning the ropes. May Aphrodite herself help you take your best shot today, or just have a lovely time!💘

Tonight at 5PM ET I'll be checking out the demo for Somnium Eleven over on Twitch! Hope to see you in chat: www.twitch.tv/blerdyotome

Over on Instagram, had to pull out my faves that all have one thing in common: mental illness 😭

I FINISHED IT NO 😭 On to volume four!!!

Happy 10 year anniversary to Taisho x Alice AKA my favorite silly little cast ❤️🫶🏼 (1/2)

PAIN

After that plane literally flipped upside down after smashing into the runway and 100% of people survived, I hope every person who ever said “what’s even the point of seatbelts on a plane” feels like a real doof.

God I love Sylus

For those unaware, SAG-AFTRA is entering it's 7th straight month of striking interactive projects for enforceable AI rights. SAG-AFTRA contracts are protected by their legal staff--I can't afford a lawyer without the union. I am only working on projects signed to a SAG-AFTRA INTERIM AGREEMENT.

I've become obsessed with Korea hot dogs and I blame my period
