"We all" know it was a front for virulent misogynists and racists, but like, the vast majority of gamers don't actually read games journalism *at all* Having strong opinions on GG is one of those self-selecting things yougov.com/articles/497...

I have like a very vague understanding that there's later-on Dune stuff where it's like, "oh, the Atreides guy commits vast atrocities to discourage folks from deifying any ruler ever again!" but it doesn't work anyway what were we talking about?
Latest WSJ poll: "63% want to pause AI development 61% want a billionaire wealth tax 59% want Medicare for All 57% want a $20 minimum wage 58% want to end U.S. military aid to Israel" This is the center of the country politically. it is time all adjust to this political spectrum, esp. media.

Replying to @zoehhannah.com
anyway you should subscribe to @mothership.blog to support women and queer people in games journalism
I think if there's anything I've learned in the American Century of Humiliation is that anybody who gives themselves a whackadoo-ass nickname needs mental evaluation and quarantine

I think about raising my sons in this world that does not reward gentleness. I think about the day, soon, when I will have to tell them that they have a tremendous privilege: the world will always give them more than it gives others, and they must use that to stand up for others
Crucially, none of that work really involves bothering women and asking them what to do. Instead you take stock of your privilege and think “how can I upset the status quo in ways that others can’t? What discomfort can I risk for myself that would cost someone else more?”

This 33-year-old nurse told the FBI she knew she was “going to set him free” after border patrol agents brought in a man whose face was bloodied and seriously injured. She treated him and helped him escape, and she faces charges now. He got away, and they never relocated him.
A Michigan nurse is accused of helping an injured immigration detainee escape from a hospital while in federal custody.

I have rarely been so genuine on main as when I say: congratulations to @msrachelforlittles.bsky.social and the team on the album release today!!
These tech assholes underestimate how big a motivator spite can be
I must say that I went with an Nvidia card instead of an AMD when I bought my gaming rig a couple of years ago. If I can ever afford another one (big "if" at this point), I will certainly go with an AMD, BASED SOLELY on the complete odiousness of Jensen Huang. He is for sure one of the bad guys.

It cannot be overstated how much of a generational fuck up Xbox is. Catastrophic lack of business sense with an unfathomable human toll
I'd prefer if all Xbox studios were given the chance to get out before they are lost to the void Glad Undead Labs was able to escape. Fingers crossed for Arkane and Ninja Theory
