I love all the trans people in my life. They're delightful, they're talented, they're funny, and they just generally enrich my world in a multitude of ways.

Anybody out there who's written a video game pitch before? I've got a low stakes chance to do it, but want to do it well - so any advice is very welcome!

Oh yes, Homer’s famous “Tes Thdpssssps.” 👍🏻

advice to young writers: - begin the first sentence of every paragraph with, "So basically the whole deal is, is that [...]" - begin subsequent sentences with, "And plus, [...]" - end every paragraph with, "So that basically wraps it up as far as all that goes." - 4 blank lines between paragraphs

When the decision-making call for casting a game takes over 4 hours, you know the voice actors really popped off. It was a lot of roles, sure, but the deliberation was INTENSE 🤯

I need game devs and gamers alike to understand that procedural generation is not genAI.

Just a friendly reminder that if anybody (already) has Disney+, the Broadway pro shot of Newsies is available and it's eerily timely and delightful.

sometimes I have hope for humanity, but other times I look at comment sections where 100+ people have commented functionally the exact same question, seemingly unaware that it has already been answered dozens of times, and then my conviction weakens a little

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!💘

a lot sucks rn and there are plenty of reasons to be sad, angry, scared, etc. but there's also still so much in life to find joy in. it's okay to find respite in moments of happiness and contentment. joy is needed to keep going; needed for hope. pls don't feel guilty for cherishing those glimmers 🌈✨

I have many regrets about Earth, but making humans in a wide range of colors, shapes, and temperaments is not one of them. Celebrate thy diversity. Love each other.

If you are feeling helpless and hopeless and overwhelmed and want to do something easy but impactful, go get or renew your library card. Tomorrow, if you’re boycotting work, school, and shopping, pass the time at your local library. They are havens. They are hubs of care and community. They need you

Just sending out a quick but massive THANK YOU to the wonderful voice actors who submitted for BFAA. We will be looking over your submissions in the coming days but have TONS to get through. So please know we are working on it but will need time as we volunteer for this in our free time too ❤️

ICYMI: Nominees Are Out For Game Developers Choice Awards: ….and you’ll never guess what’s in the lead! We’ve covered several video game awards ceremonies in recent months here at Popgeeks and there seems to be a common critical favorite among them. Astro Bot has been nominated in every category…

while The Horrors persist, let us celebrate less horrors overall…. because all three mega fires in Los Angeles are finally 100% contained!!

The Video Game History Foundation’s digital library is now publicly available in early access form. The library includes promotional material and more than 1,500 out-of-print magazines. www.videogameschronicle.com/news/the-vid...

I paid sixty dollars for No Man's Sky nine years ago and they refuse to stop making the video game. I've begged them to go home to their families but they won't stop adding new kinds of weird little guys and like, optimizing the gentle patter of rain on an alien ocean. Please let me pay for a DLC

Felt my first ever earthquake at work today. I guess they happen everywhere but I honestly didn't expect one here in New England when I never even had one in LA.

Hello loves. We know there’s a lot happening in the world right now, and some of it can be really heavy. If you're feeling hurt, unseen, or shaken by recent events, we want you to know this: you are valid, you are loved, and you belong here exactly as you are.

Hello again! Less than a week left to submit for this #opencastingcall! Have any questions? Let me know! So many fun roles, including gender neutral and very open roles in terms of accents - a great chance for folks to try #voiceacting for the first time!

This isn't important; I just enjoy that I get to build legos when I'm on break at work 😂 Current progress on the Millennium Falcon

The countdown to ToonFest Orlando has officially begun! 🪄 In less than 200 days, ToonFest is coming to Orlando for a truly magical time! Learn all about this spell-erbration we'll be having at GalaxyCon Animate! in our newest blog post toon.town/orlandocountdown #Toontown #ToonFestOrlando

As a Texan most of my life, may I just say: this snow thing is cool until it's not. No pun intended. See you in 10 minutes after both me and my car have defrosted.

Calling all voice actors! I'm very excited to share that The Bureau of Fantastical & Arcane Affairs is looking for volunteers to voice a cast of strange and magical characters. No experience needed, actors of all backgrounds encouraged to submit! Apply here: forms.gle/74TseZjaNxTt...

If my girlies need a go-to business or casual wear designer, Lauren Conrad is top tier. Been having issues with a pinched nerve from other clothes and found multiple pieces from her that were perfect today. 🥳💃

Will have exciting voice casting news to share in the very near future! Watch this space: we're holding an open call for a LOT of characters. The video game is being made game jam style so it's volunteer, but should be very quick to record, & mostly/entirely self-directed (the premise is so fun!)

My friend is a realtor trying to place families and overnight rents for houses have risen 30%+ on many houses. Just disgusting.
