An amazing image from Twin Peaks, Dune, and Fallout star Kyle MacLachlan's memoir "Fictional Selves" that just shows how awesome Patrick Stuart is.

Ethan Klein dressing up his wife and mistress as Thing 1 and Thing 2 while he was Cat in the Hat for Halloween and knowing his wife didn't know is a level of evil that almost enters the same zip code as his wife leaving a desk job to terrorize Palestinians

its deeply upsetting that we've become so accustomed to giant tech platforms abandoning any kind of responsibility for moderation that people just default to strategies to protect themselves but valve makes BILLIONS from steam, they should be the ones protecting the products on their shopfront!

Truly, TRULY wonder how much of the BIOWARE IS GAY AND MAKES GAY THINGS perception plus wanting to make new owners (aka, government of SA) happy is at play. bsky.app/profile/jaso...

New article from on Engadget! I really dug my recent hands-on with Stranger Than Heaven. I was very mixed on it back at SGF 2026, but I felt way more into it after getting better context on what this game is really all about.

We played several hours of Sega's next big crime-thriller, and so far the Like a Dragon series is getting its most bold entry to date.

Given the flood of AI produced junk on store fronts, I feel that media round ups and recommendations from friends are more important than ever to properly spotlight the games that need to find their audience.

A new Steam Next Fest is live, and we've pulled fourteen demos that are worth your time www.rogue.site/editorials/r...

Great, great casting, and I'm glad it's an animated show. The Tom King Mister Miracle comic this is taking inspiration from is fantastic, and I hope they do it proper justice.

Update: WE ARE BACK IN! We can post again. This was utter bullshit on the biggest early vote effort in history. But it will not stop what we're building. No Kings means no kings in the White House or in Silicon Valley.

Ezra Levin ❌👑@ezralevin.bsky.social

Update: about 4 hours later and we still don't have admin access so we still can't post to the No Kings instagram account. This isn't slowing down the the 3,000+ early vote events today. We will drive the biggest early vote in history. But this should be a flashing alarm about what's to come.

No joke. I think this is the most important video I have ever seen about mobile games. This guy breaks down how this game psychologically profiles you, and makes the game harder or easier in order to show you ads

Still looking for writing work! Been about four months. I know everything is on fire, but still looking.

Zaire@zeestermeester.bsky.social

If anyone is looking to hire a Peabody and BAFTA winning senior writer, I am looking for work. I’ve got six years experience in games. Everything from indie to AAA. I am not married to staying in games. I am hoping to relocate to the Bay Area. I am keeping my ears to the ground.

Back from my week off tomorrow and desperately desperately in need of work. I’m not getting payments for thing I did, my car is broken down, and I’ve got a big gap in schedule work coming up. In a much tougher position after a vacation than I planned on. If you have any leads on work, let me know

Hello! Quick PSA about freelancing for Vertical Slice. Because this whole thing is self-funded initially, I'm being pretty selective about accepting pitches. The plan right now is to gently open the door to pitches in Nov/Dec when I've a better grasp on my budget. Will share more details then!
