the onion should hire the knowledge fight guys but let them go into semi-retirement doing a weekly podcast about reality tv

Stay Positive: Compliance Requires Optimism

I’m boothing at @oddmallpnw.bsky.social this weekend for Read/Write Memory and my games! Come say hi if you’re around

Exactly one year ago today:

Like I said. Kobo has been over there keeping on keeping on this whole time. If you don't know about them, it's a great time to learn!

The great show "We The Unhoused", is nominated for a Webby too! Please give them your vote.

Beyond the masked thugs and goons to seize people, these spaces were built by contracted firms and workers, are staffed by people, serviced by utilities, catering/food delivery outfits, etc. And prosecution for these civil and human rights abuses needs to go after the whole system.

Marvel news tells me 2 things; 1, Spider-Man: Brandon New Day will probably have AI in it, and 2, VFX workers got one smidgen of workers rights so Disney is taking all the work over seas.

Asking me to put your AI game on One Shot must be a humiliation ritual for these people I think. Don't involve me in your kink!

Black text on white background: If corporations allow you to sign up with one click, you should be able to cancel with one click too. Subscription traps, whether from an app or gym membership, are just another way corporations take advantage of working people. We've already put hundreds of companies on notice. This week, we proposed a rule that would make NYC a national leader in cracking down on abusive practices that nickel-and-dime New Yorkers.

This is getting attention, but afaik the second part is not accurate. New mRMA projects will not be initiated *under BARDA*, HHS has said. But mRNA research on pancreatic cancer and other initiatives are still going, as far as I know

If you've played the House of Hikmah, the beautiful Arab-made narrative platformer about the grief of losing a parent - please do leave a review. It's really hard to make bespoke human games like this in 2026, and the team really gave it their all.

A "wartime" poster that says: "Using Generative AI? You're Prompting with Hitler! GenAI is a Fascist Project! Try using your brain instead! Don't surrender your creativity to the Tech Billionaires' control!"

I missed this from @phineas.bsky.social when it originally came out but it sure feels relevant at the moment.

Also, you can buy this as a print from the artist here:

Okay CTA. This is a good sign.

Here’s the story of one of them. Awful www.thestranger.com/forced-out/f...

Alienfirst - Twitch Le gasp! More Sinking City!

Whew okay, stream beginning! Sinking City, I think, today. I might not have time to also do some art! www.twitch.tv/alienfirst

Contrary to public perception a huge % of pregnant teenagers in the 1990s were impregnated by adult men. The younger they were, the larger the average age gap between mother and father was. Fixing teen pregnancy was in part a clampdown on statutory rape. That's what conservatives want to reverse.

Carly is genuinely an extraordinary artist, and the backlash for this card was extremely unfair.

Analysis Finds That Google's AI Overviews Are Providing Misinformation at a Scale Possibly Unprecedented in the History of Human Civilization A new analysis commissioned by The New York Times suggests that Google's AI Overviews are wrong an astonishing percentage of the time.

This is catastrophic.

If you need to distract yourself for a few hours, no better way than diving into this darkly comic, hopeful sci-fi classic, even if you could not give one iota of a shit about football:

RIP. I will never forget the police brutalizing him — and then that one cop stopping the other cop from helping him

Deeply relieved that the bombs will stop—for now.

But threatening the destruction of an entire civilization has repercussions.

Republicans must call Congress back NOW, pass a war powers resolution, & stop this unauthorized war.

And Trump must be removed from office immediately.

I DID IT. I stumbled my way thru some VERY simple editing of my first Alan Wake VOD. Thank god video editing programs don't seem to have changed too much of their basic functionality since I last did editing back in ye olde college days.
