If you are National Guard or Active Duty military and you are being ordered to violate the constitutional rights of US citizens then this is the number to the GI Rights Hotline. There is support. You don’t have to go through with it. 877-447-4487

I don't beliiiiiiieve I've mentioned lately that I made a chill puzzle game on unreal engine five that you can buy on Steam right now, but I did and you can store.steampowered.com/app/867150/I...

Amores, hacía mucho que no escribía, pero Shin Chan: Nevado en Carbónpolis me calentó mucho el corazón y he querido hablaros un poquito de él, de la infancia y de lo que me llevo. Estaría muy bonito sentarse con gente bonita a que me hablasen de cuando era peques, es mi nueva fantasía 🥰

"less lethal munitions" is a hell of a term

Always love to see guys who embraced crooked fucking pursuits so they could wear plate carriers and swing guns around to feel big and invincible totally emasculated by someone with actual balls

jesus christ lmao

The only sonic I like

"failing upwards" seems like the only thing you can do upwards anymore in almost any context. "being in charge of things" assigned completely separately to any sort of competence at all, even malicious capitalist competence. being good or meaning well a huge tactical error

Please PLEASE don't try to figure out who the skateboard kid is PLEASE if you're gonna make them a meme please leave the actualperson the fuck alone cops murdered visible protestors from Ferguson and 'fun' internet sleuthing is policing

the white house thinks brute force is, no pun intended, a trump card. they don’t anticipate pushback and they don’t know how to handle it with anything other than escalation. the issue is that each escalation is itself a gamble. if protesters refuse to back down, you’ve lost face. (1/?)

Another failure of the Obama era democratic majority. When Obama was elected to his first term, ICE as an agency had existed for only 5 years. Instead we handed over an army of racist hogs to Donald Trump

Turning on a podcast and hearing it’s a live show episode is like ordering your favorite sandwich and finding 4-6 pieces of broken glass in it.

seconding this. if you get hit directly in the head with an impact munitions like this or a grenade go immediately to the ER. don't stay to protest with your friends. Don't try to be "tough". your night or day is done. seek medical care

Folks, remember

Regular reminder that it doesn't have to be like this and you can deactivate AI overviews in your Google searches!

California Protesters throw rocks at ICE

People and media often say Balatro was made by 'one guy'. I feel like that unfortunately may be stoking the flames of this David vs. Goliath narrative a tiny bit No it was not 'one guy', look at the dang in-game credits

I was really uncomfortable with this as well. And not just because the math doesn’t math. One dev plus nine friends working with him is 10 people… not one. Expedition 33 is a triumph, but it wasn’t made by 30 people. Contractors provided vital labor. This is a dangerous path we’re walking.

For context on the Make FPS Great Again Guy, his dad is the billionaire CEO of US tax giant, Intuit. He loves to leave that out of his "rags to riches" story on dropping out of college to ship his first game... The more you know!

Seguimos siendo esto. Seguimos siendo el cebo. Seguimos siendo carne. Somos el producto. Hasta que esto no cambie, la industria del videojuego no será arte, solo mercado. Estoy agotada, ya.

Reminder: Actors are still on strike for bare minimum guard rails on the use of AI in videogames and we have been for 11 months. We have struck longer and with less resources than our on-camera colleagues.

all these public officials insist they will resist the Trump admin adn that they don't support ICE...and then the police departments they supposedly control rush out to beat up anti ICE protestors.

I was so excited before I realized that it is part of the Alien franchise... I'm a dummy.

Hey folks. Please don’t scroll past this. The artists you love who worked on your favorite cartoons are really struggling right now due to outsourcing. I’m honestly wondering if we can keep going if things don’t change. Please take 2 minutes and do this. Tell your friends, Thankyou.

It’s incredibly noticeable how often ‘and an army of outsourcers outside America and Western Europe’ is left out of these team sizes. That’s the part I find real uncomfortable.

Fucking Christ

We are thrilled to announce the Hob's Barrow physical Nintendo Switch release! Available for pre-order now via www.lostincult.com We've worked closely with @lostincult.co.uk to create a very special limited edition release featuring all manner of goodies, and also a standard retail version! ⬇️

Huh. Confirmed that this does indeed work on a Switch 1. (As the OG Switch game.) Kinda surprised

"Yo ChatGPT sólo lo uso para--" Me da igual. De verdad que me da igual.

Pregunta para traductores especializades: ¿Cómo dirías "Taping" o "trans tape" o "binding" en castellano? Es por si hay una palabra específica más allá de "vendarse el pecho" o usar binder. Gracias de antemano, querides.

The reason all the throw back posters for Fantastic Four look so bad is because they want a midcentury look, but they don't want to pay actual human illustrators or graphic designers for their work. So it's this half assed bullshit. That looks like a superbowl ad for an hotel booking service.

This rules for a lot of reasons, but especially because it dispels the myths that A.) old games were never political and B.) games like this are just stories, they aren't "about" anything. Should serve as a reminder to anyone writing about games why we should be close reading 'em.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Mohamed. Mohamed is 28 years old and ran a small cosmetics shop before all this (you can see a photo on his GFM to see how much care he put into it). He lost it and his home. He got engaged last week and wants to restart his life ❤️
