Anyway, once again, putting it into the universe that I’d love to work on some licensed characters (covers, shorts, full issues) in 2026

Disheartening and disturbing! ☹️

Nazih Fares - Your friendly neighborhood game dev and consultant | Nazih F. This month, I'm hitting the one-year mark of unemployment, and providing for my family weighs heavily on me every single day. The reality of competing against more than 45,000 talented professionals w...

Approaching one year of unemployment is terrifying and bills need to be paid. A year of pitching The Arab League of Misfits yielded zero funding so far, and competing with 45K laid-off devs is bleak. I urgently need freelance or full-time remote roles

Very tired of ignorant bigots parading as activists today (and always). And its only Tuesday.

Teenager me thought the people in the French Revolution were too violent.

Adult me understands them now...I understand them toooo well.

And this beautiful game on grief is out now! If you want to support Arab-made work about the Arab world, history, arts, and culture -especially in a time of destruction and erasure towards our people- I cannot recommend this game more.

Why is it when people think about tax money being wasted, space exploration is the first thing they criticize? Bruh, our tax money is being wasted on pointless wars started by withering dinosaurs with a pharaoh complex.

I'm no expert in religious history, but the little knowledge I have about the Abrahamic religion timelines...Islam didn't exist in 400-450 BCE (where this story of Esther is set, in the Achaemenid Empire)....so what are these idiots even on about?

Sometimes I wonder if the desire to go back to one's childhood has anything to do with us not realizing just how grossly racist some comics/cartoons were in their stereotypical depictions of people of color.

I so wish! *sigh* I was talking to a friend, we are mad that companies are shoving AI down our throats, making its usage a part of our 'performance assessment', telling us to 'embrace it' without solid usable cases of where it is supposed to help in our pipelines.

Does the game industry have any resource (free resources) that help folks manage mental health/stress/anxiety, especially when it is a result of mass layoffs? Or has there been a talk on this at some point?

I guess his crusade against Apple was just a hollow PR stunt, masquerading as a champion for customers and players rights while fawning over Musk, pandering to reactionary gamergate trolls, and obsessively pushing generative AI. Protest with your wallets, that's your free right.

Small note. Mass layoffs like these are also a tactic to devalue the work because workers become more desperate while companies create false scarcity.

Do not, ever, forget your worth. Don’t let them win.
You make this industry exist. They don’t.

I'm livid.
Has this company been acquiring other companies just to lay talented people off? Is this the gameplay of this industry we're in?

Indeed. A good friend of mine is also going to be impacted by this layoff and I can't figure out how to support them through this 😞

Is it a reflection of self when you chose to support nazi genocidal regimes, or a reflection of your educational institutes for not teaching you any better?

Some of my classmates, from my Masters, went onto do their phD's and postdocs - same classmates, some self-proclaimed atheists, are zionist supporters. I often wonder if they're just dumbfucks, or if the EU universities where we studied at were THAT BAD at teaching critical thinking.

Now I wish I was there, just for this!

Omg is this a talk at GDC? 😀

I mean how can such a crude 'joke' not be taken personally. Incredibly tone-deaf and insensitive of them to do that. I'm really sorry you had to see that.

I mean honestly it makes sense. Sadly, my first thought when I read this headline was 'what damage can an asteroid do that humans haven't done/aren't planning to do, to themselves?'.

I'm freaking glued to the TV at 3 am seeing Lebanon be dragged into another bloodbath (not that it ever really stopped) and I don't know what to do anymore.

Please stay safe, and I'm here to receive rants and help best I can.

Genuinely fuck the timeline we are in.

Maybe working on the little things as dutifully and honestly as we can is how we stay sane when the world is falling apart. Haruki Murakami quote. Image of him smoking a cigarette.

Only 2 DAYS to go!

Btw:
-No microtransactions.
-No preorder nonsense.
-No season passes.
-No live service
Just a full single-player game.
Crazy concept, I know.

I'm very annoyed to see Illustrator job opportunities (for Fine Artists) where the company is hiring artists to 'train' their AI models. =_=
'Yes please work for me for chump change while I feed both your arms to my monster'.

I am hoping I can find diverse content of interest on UpScrolled. I really hope I see more small artists/small art businesses get engagement here. Again, Cara is great, but it has been difficult to get attention there at times as a small artist.

I am now on UpScrolled as javechan! I am really liking this platform!
While Cara has been great for sharing art, finding artists & photographers, it still didn't give me what I, sadly, find in instagram. Non-art, but things of interest to me (content like science, wildlife, nature, cooking).

I dont get ppl. There's this anime about a plus size girl who finds confidence in herself. Commenters "tHiS pRoMoTeS oBeSiTy, tHiS pRoMotEs uNHEalTHy". Like wth! Do y'all watch LGBTQ+ shows and complain it's too gay?
It's not that hard to skip shows that aren't your thing!

“Be kind, be involved, believe in your art,” he said. “At a time when people tell you art is not important, that is always the prelude to fascism. When they tell you it doesn’t matter, when they tell you a fucking app can do art you say, if it’s that important, why the fuck do they want it so bad? The answer is because they think they can debase everything that makes us a little better, a little more human. And that, in my book, and in my life, includes monsters.”

Love this from Guillermo del Toro
