GIRL YOU DIDN'T REPAIR SHIT

how do you even parody this

I love the fash nerds of Silicon Valley because you can tell they're all just hyping each other up on increasingly drug-fueled and deranged groupchats until they post something so outside of normal human experience they might've had it flown in from Mars.

There’s an eternal war over IGN. There are still people mad about “too much water”, Alien Isolation, the Cuphead tutorial guy even though he didn’t even review the game, etc. The actual problem with games journalism is that a large chunk of the readerbase are annoying assholes that don’t even read.

everyone please stop calling ai glasses the "pervert glasses". this is appropriation of swirly glasses from pervert scientist women

The aim of the organised transphobic movement is to mandate trans people out of existence, they won't be happy until their targets are dead, it's a movement motivated by genocidal mania, and the cruel, vindictive, hateful bigotry extends from there.

Me looking at posts from two weeks ago

Charlize Theron Says ‘In 10 Years, AI Is Going to Be Able to Do’ Timothée Chalamet’s Job, but it ‘Will Not Be Able to Replace’ Live Performance Like Ballet Charlize Theron says 'in 10 years,' AI can replace Timothée Chalamet, but it 'will not be able to replace' live performance like ballet.

Oh my GOD shut the fuck up

Hey seriously, literally in the bills it says they'll also use identifying information, such as your age data for "other purposes". That means your data goes into a government surveillance database. This would be for ANY *OS*, which is the thing your fucking PC runs off of.

Call your reps NOW.

I wish for all of these men a scenario exactly like the one from the film AUDITION.

I can think of a lot of more accurate and less flattering terms for dudes who travel to other countries to trap foreign women in subservient relationships than “passport bros”

At its core fascism really is about constructing an overarching binary of weak/strong, and assign identities to one or the other.

You can tell who is "strong" according to who is invited into decision-making space and who isn't.

What better way to get out a message than to put it on something you fold up and then hide in a pocket. You can literally see by the fold lines that it’s folding *into* the text too lmao

When people steal thousands of dollars from their bosses, they're prosecuted.

its really funny watching them add more and more to the hidden replies as more people call them out for union busting.

The contempt the Democratic party has for principled governance is just breathtaking.

I ...

It hurts, fam.

I am hurt by the way people have devalued themselves. :(

RAGE

This is the guy whose siblings thought he shouldn’t be elected.

We have trained people to associate digital formats with being exploited.

Not once in the 80s, 90s or 00s do I recall a politician urging the public to embrace email, mobile phones, texting, two factor authentication, online banking, air fryers, or to replace all their cassette collection with a CD collection.

So forgive me if I smell a rat.

This is a rather incredible window into a reactionary mindset, because Daniel Vávra seems like he genuinely wanted to tell a story that included a gay romance subplot in spite of pushback, but refuses to extend that understanding to other writers and developers who also want to tell their stories...

Do you, small / solo dev, know if your game is in IGF this year? No, do you REALLY? Have you asked your publisher? I unfortunately must relay to you that I can name three examples this year of high-profile IGF 2025 games that were submitted either: By the indie’s publisher, without informing the developer at all By the indie’s publisher’s externally contracted PR firm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do you want to know why this is a FUCKING BAD IDEA? Here’s an example of a thing that happened this year: Judge: Hi! I’m having some technical issues with the build. Could you help me out? PR Company who submitted: We’ll get in touch with the developer and get back to you. — *THREE WEEKS OUT OF THE 1 MONTH JUDGING PERIOD PASS* — Judge: Hello????? Judging is almost over. Is everything okay? PR Company who submitted: We’ll have an updated build for you when the game comes out [note: That’s gonna be after judging is over] Result: Your game has wasted its opportunity completely.

Now that IGF and GDC is over I finally got around to writing up my postscript on IGF submissions and some of the issues we ran into in 2025. If you plan to submit your game in 2026 I recommend reading this, tbh. auratriolo.com/blog/2026/03...

Here's a little spoiler:

The cruelty of these laws is breathtaking. Trans people are just trying to live their lives, and laws intended to exclude them from existence are wrong. What a terrible path Idaho has taken here.
