In a few weeks (April 1), the digital version of my graphic novel comes out! And it's discounted? Gaytheist: Coming Out of My Orthodox Childhood is about my experiences growing up gay and Orthodox Jewish. a.co/d/2nUqZiq

This is so so interesting to me. Every time I use my old video gear I wonder how the hell anyone got anything done before nonlinear editors

This is what I have been working on for the past decade 💅 ALT: GAMES is a new festival that brings together the Australian games community and industry. Featuring @dmullinsgames.bsky.social Richard Garfield @allyhennessy.bsky.social Playfool and atomo Kihara

i think about this comic cover every day. i think maybe it is the most powerful image to ever exist

youtu.be/gWOcucS9_mg?... shader glass is so fun, especially if the old anime you want to watch is only available from a terrible vhs transfer or you're watching a playthrough of a pixel art game with a overly-raw presentation.

the GOVERNMENT doesnt want you to know this but there are lots of ways you can help trans people right now. if you've got a little spare cash, consider donating some money to someone's gofundme today. every bit makes a big difference #transcrowdfund #GTFOmystate #mutualaid

A bit of good news - the digital version of my comic about growing up gay and orthodox jewish (Gaytheist: Coming Out of My Orthodox Childhood) should be released April 1 - no joke! So, if you just haven't had room for physical books etc ... consider a preorder?? www.amazon.com/dp/B0DYHYWVR3/ 💖

this is a goddamn shame :( lots of really talented, hard working people there who deserved better than this

My book's on the list! 🥰

NO. I refuse to have Gemini. I already went through each gmail account and specifically turned it off. Today it turned itself back on.

Due to rising costs, I'll be adjusting the prices of my game assets. This helps maintain quality and allows me to continue creating content. There'll be a 10% price increase, making the new price... well, still $0 I guess. Thank you for understanding. gameassets.com

An Ashcan release of Realis, the TTRPG that I've been working on (and off and on) for the last four years is now available for preorder! thecalcutec.itch.io/realis

hell yes. we as a community don’t give @scryfall.com nearly enough credit for making this game playable and fun

THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT

On May 10, 1933, Nazis burned the library of The Institute for Sexual Science. The Institute was founded by Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld. Its community clinic pioneered healthcare for queer, trans, & intersex people. The Institute was targeted & attacked as part of a Nazi government censorship program.

Ahhhh this explains why 2nd hand clothes shops in Japan stopped carrying anything interesting a couple hears ago. I used to be able to buy the wildest stuff and now it's all Jealousy Professor

Multiple trans and nb persons are working on Demonschool by the way! This is not us begging for wishlists (this time lol) it is us alerting other devs that you too can have trans people on your team. It's easy! Just just give them money and then they work with you.

I always enjoy reading Jack’s reports where he plays through the entirety of a battle pass, but this one for BLOPS6 is really something more than that: an index of our games culture at large. CW for sexual assault discussion. www.jackdoeseverything.com/blog/2025/1/...

How to turn off AI. 📌

it's fun to see so many areas I regularly hang out in one video! I used to go to school in Jimbouchou, and now live right near Kouenji youtu.be/2UaQOvAqEM4?...

I don't think I need to clarify my stance on the topic but these soccer folks summed it up

www.youtube.com/watch?v=DwhU... I'm glad to have the name Procedural Rhetoric to talk about what the relationship between a game system or symbol and the real thing it ostensibly represents. I'm sure I heard the Games Studies Study Buddies mention it before, but I hope it will stick this time

The big push from a bunch of ex-cohost'ers to make little blogs and websites last year is still so fun to follow. It rules to have a basic little website to put thoughts on, to have an rss feed of friends and contemporaries posting the kinds of things you just can't fit onto microblogging sites.

"It might feel silly, but you can do a lot of good as a person monomaniacally focused on a bite-sized problem, rather than be another in the crowd of people puzzling over larger, more existential issues." This is a great article!

I didn't realize Teen Vogue is here! Looking forward to their work.

Again, my utmost respect for @polygon.com for reporting on Dreams on a Pillow when so many sites and influencers that claim to stand for inclusivity and diversity and equality have ducked speaking about the genocide, about Palestine, and about Palestinian stories. www.polygon.com/gaming/50447...

happy new years everyone <3
