With the Oblivion remaster taking up the hype cycle, it's probably a good time to re-up that the Palestinian-led BDS movement has asked for a boycott of Microsoft's gaming products due to the company's ongoing and enthusiastic technical support for the IDF's ongoing genocide in Gaza.

Guys, I love all of you, but the answer to RFK, Jr. is not that autistic adults hold jobs, pay taxes, and get laid, it's that everyone deserves to live even if they can't work, pay taxes, or get laid.

i need people to understand "death of the author" means the author can't dictate what you take away from the text, not that you're not complicit in what they do with the profit they make from you buying it in the first place

Hi everyone! My job was bitten by DOGE, and our entire team is laid off. My last day is Wednesday the 9th. I'm a senior graphic designer with 20+ years of experience, looking for work! Share please! My portfolio and resume at www.kompreya.com

This is not a parody article, Nintendo take 30% of this mans income even after he was in prison for hacking charges, until he's paid the debt or dies. Said debt would take him 1000+ years to pay off at his current income as it's in the tens of millions.

This is like the coolest thing they announced at the Direct outright, an incredibly creative use of the mouse controls. I just wish it had a little bit more visual flair, and I'm dreading to about how likely it is Nintendo won't add accessibility options to the *wheelchair basketball* game.

[Ixalan x Mononoke Hime] I made this fanart of Vraska and Jace based on the 1st chapter of the Ixalan stories and as a homage to my favorite Studio Ghibli movie. Made by a real artist and a real fan. Support human artists. #MTG #MagictheGathering #art #StudioGhibli

Missed my chance for a tdov timeline but I'm inspired to be a little late. This year will be my fifth year since I became who I am now and I've been so much better for it.

Every day's different but it's the only job I've ever had where there are times I look forward to waking up for it. It feels nice to work on something people care about.

Finally got my website stuff moved to a new host which means I can put up my non-pixel art gallery online but now my profile shows my handle as "invalid handle" despite the bluesky debugging tool showing my new domain as being valid 😭

Camp Howl’s iconic merch has been a staple of furry cons for years and I use one of their cute fanny packs as my convention money bag! They’re really going through it right now, so if you have some cash to spare maybe help them out??

There is no way to fight back that doesn’t challenge ideas like ‘terrorist,’ ‘gang member,’ and ‘criminal.’

The real context collapse happening with the nuclear block is people who try to end a conversation with a zinger before blocking someone instead of just blocking them. It's meaningless self-gratification, no one can see what you're talking about, no need to create drama, you can just walk away.

I will continue to fight against Donald Trump’s reckless, and in many instances, illegal attempts to gut the federal government* *except for the times when I'm helping him do exactly that

Nothing makes an artist more likely to move on from a project or from posting their work in a public space like a lack of engagement. "I don't feel like I have anything to say" cool if you keep that up the artist will feel like they don't have anything to show you
