If you recognize which unnamed woman is talking because you're asked for comment and the comment makes it clear which of the woman's rape stories match your memory of events, and you text that specific woman and say "stop telling people I raped you," that is.... sure an admission of something.
I’m very proud of my wife for sharing the details she did. I’m disgusted by all of it. She found herself in one of those moments where she didn’t care what she lost if it helped one other person. The reality is the truth don’t care who tells it, but she told it. Love you @allysammarco.bsky.social
For the FT this weekend, I wrote about the 70-year history of one of my favourite weird books — Naomi Mitchison's fantasy (?) novel for children (??) Travel Light, which @amalelmohtar.com calls "like sunlight... beautiful, warm and strange"

I've wished for Arab-made games about Arab mythology for so long, and despite assisting on the project I still can't believe there's one swinging for the fences this hard. House of Hikmah is something very needed in a time where the world would rather erase us.

A mysterious screenshot, perhaps from a videogame? It shows a barred window in low light, through the window you can see plants growing and some brighter lights beyond the plants. Some smaller plants are growing in the foreground of the image. The text "We'll be lost without you." is written at the bottom of the image and in the bottom right the Hollow Ponds logo can be seen.
Hollow Ponds is looking for a Social Media Content Creator to make video content for our next major release.
This contract role is remote with a preference for UK and adjacent time zones.

Oh yeah? I predict of the top 10 games 3-5 years from now, 8 will be either currently released games or sequels to existing IP.
If anyone is willing the share the following, I would be so grateful!
We just launched Piece by Piece on Steam 🎉🎉
It's a cozy repair shop sim, you play a woodland fox who inherits his grandfather's store. You fix up items with your hammer and paintbrush 🔨🖌️🦊

physical should be embodied, oh well :)
Sure there's friendslop, but what catchy name are we giving to immersive sim management slop? (Water Park Simulator, Supermarket Simulator, the popular tycoon genre on Roblox) Where you are a character managing something simulated but forced to deal with hilarious physical problems?
A GDC-relevant PSA:
Kiki’s Delivery Service is screening in 4K on the IMAX screen in Metreon next door on Thursday and Friday, and that TMNT II is also playing there on Friday. Go forth.
If anyone is willing to share, I would be very appreciative!! 🔧🍃
We've just set the launch trailer live for Piece by Piece, our cozy repair shop game that is coming THIS WEEK, on March 11!!
You can see it below, and find the game here: store.steampowered.com/app/3179050/...
