this ‘jurassic park’ story 😭

STORY: Warner Bros. Games is shutting down three studios, including Monolith Productions, and cancelling the Wonder Woman game. "The quality of too many of our new releases has really missed the mark." Employees blame the weak slate on former president David Haddad www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

I feel there should be a rule like: "If you become a friend of Jimbo, you have to let your employees unionize"

Andor Season 2. Press send.

Americans, right now

we used to respect the computer

Which are the good gaming community professionals Discord these days? I want to circulate a job opportunity but I'm realizing I lost access to my usual places as I've been less connected to the field in the past two years... Cc @litvac.com @rimaj.bsky.social @victoriatran.bsky.social

0.000% of Communism has been built. Evil child-murdering billionaires still rule the world with a shit-eating grin. All he has managed to do is make himself *sad*. He is starting to suspect Kras Mazov *fucked him over* personally with his socio-economic theory.

Me in 1999: “That South Park movie was wacky, imagining an American imperialism so deranged that they decide to invade Canada in a crusade of censorship. 😂” Me in 2025: 😐

In Across the Universe, when John Lennon sings "Jai guru deva om", it kinda sounds like "Shai'Ulud Devour". Follow me for more cool facts. Thank you.

democrats gave an unimaginable w to trump by pulling this insanely incompetent and unpopular decision. can’t believe that trump who wanted ban tiktok initially is now getting the most expensive free ad by being credited as its savior to 170million americans. master class.

the banning of tiktok is another painful reminder to buy physical copies of your media. i have dozens of dvds of an ai voice reading reddit comments over unrelated minecraft footage.

Really excited to begin the search for a Chief Technical Officer to join the team at Arrowhead! Put on your technical wizard robe and hat and join up. Need as much signal boost as I possible can get on this one folks!

A reminder as Musk-bots, Trump-bots, and other bots start hitting Bluesky: blocking users removes their replies from your posts entirely. The correct way of handlin antagonizing parties is to block. Not reply. Not dunk. Not mute. Block. It stops their reach and effectiveness right there.

Finally, good news. Looking forward to play it.

My main takeaway for community professionals, from the new content moderation standards on X and Meta is: invest in community platforms where you can control the moderation. It's nothing new, and one of the big reasons Discord has risen as the gaming communities platform of choice.

It's not surprising to see Meta aligning on Trump/Musk demands for moderation guidelines. They've got no interest in making an enemy of the government, and the level of moderation they enforced was really expensive, dropping it will save them a lot. The question is how it'll affect advertising.

Facebook had already lost most of its value as a community platform; I expect these policy changes will accelerate its decline as an advertising platform as well, following the same path as Twitter since Musk. Pretty confident web2 as we got used to it will collapse in the upcoming decade.
