They keep reiterating this is to “support human creatives” and as a human creative, I see no use case for generating vaguely game-like slop from terabytes of gameplay data. Like you’re creating a machine to make a worse version of an already existing thing? And I can use this for what exactly?

"If peace means keeping my mouth shut in the midst of injustice and evil, I don't want it." MLK, Jr, 1956. The Rev. Dr. King died fighting for justice and equality for the working poor. As you remember his birth don’t misremember his life.

idk I feel like the government shutting down a very popular app due to how widely we were able to access information concerning a hushed genocide should be alarming to everybody regardless of your interest in using the app yourself

Nothing pisses me off like people saying blue collar workers don’t deserve to make more money because it’s a “simple” job, doesn’t require a degree etc. If you think that you’re a classist, nasty, hating ass bitch.

Infuriating. Please note that this decision only applies to trans kids— cis kids going through precocious puberty still get to have them. Because they’re only experimental and dangerous when used for a purpose some people find icky

As someone who consumes a ton of YouTube content, it drives me up the wall that so many YouTubers feel almost obligated to take potshots at games journalists. “Can you believe IGN finally gave Sonic a good score? Not that IGN has any credibility!” Then why bring them up if they’re so irrelevant?

I kid you not, @itch.io has been taken down by Funko of "Funko Pop" because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called Brand Shield that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain

people hating on wrapped, I understand, but like we gotta find those little moments of joy in the hellscape. A silly little excuse to get a peak inside the headphones of your friends for ONE DAY shouldn’t send you over the edge.

I know I’m not the first person to say it, but man, season 2 of Arcane was just not great. The complaints about it feeling rushed are super valid, but I’m more put off by how much less grounded it feels. The class struggles of season 1 were way more compelling than the war/magic apocalypse to me

it's really annoying that any time something else terrible happens in the US due to our government/whatever, there are people who are in a rush to be like "why are you surprised???" as though it's a contest to be the most jaded possible person about how terrible all of our lives are. don't do this

Playing unbelievably polished indie passion projects like Animal Well feels like peak gaming. The tech art and world design on display here is the level of quality that only comes from years of iteration. My standing ovation to you Billy Basso

It’s been so rewarding to dive into the Like a Dragon series. It feels like if GTA traded it’s snark and satire for warmth and empathy. Having this close knit group of friends makes me think about the important folks in my life and how much I love them.
