Halloween season is here, and it's never too early for parents to start inspecting the candy their children consume. Be sure to look for the telltale signs that their treats may have been tampered with:

i try to brighten my friends’ days by sharing good news whenever i see it, but this now being the third time i’ve seen very positive climate news lately, i’m gonna get a lil mean: climate doomerism is misinformation and spreading it, even just in jest, is antithetical to the values you espouse.

Also also, libraries pay people whenever someone borrows a book so you're not really stealing things from authors by borrowing instead of buying, if that was one of your worries.

You can also sign up to hoopla for digital books, comics, and movies once you have your library card.

The most radical thing you can do this week is go & sign up to your local public library. Budgets are being cut but libraries a a force of good for so many people. Including you. FREE BOOKS DAMMIT! #SaveLibraries #books #booksky #libraries

Need game devs and games jounalists to start textually distinguishing between procedurally generated content, game NPC AI, and generative LLM content, starting last year. Context is king, and being glib can cost reputation and clarity. This goes for all of you out here too. Be precise.

The God of Bad Art gets offerings from all over the world, but in Their temple, They sometimes appear. "Why bad art?" I ask. "It is brave", the God replies. "To try and fail?" "No," the God chuckles. "Any creative work is a defiance of entropy, of Death itself. If you create, you do not fail."

Brazilians recommending not to amplify right-wing talking points by dunking and quoting, as a winning strategy Next day, my tl is full of people dunking on rfk jr I literally would not have seen the bigotry if it wasn't for y'all repeating it. That's exactly what the Brazilians were on about!

NEW: I spoke with current and former EA employees to understand how the latest layoff round played out and the realities of daily life at the U.S. publisher. The short version? EA is controlled by an executive class that "cannot fail, only be failed." Workers, then, will always pay the price.

Look, I know all the reasons we got here, but we really need to start seriously thinking about what we do in a world where The Markets punish whole countries for voting for decency, compassion, and fairness. We must stop pretending the capitalist machine is an objective, value neutral force.

Lewis Wade 🗃️@wadehistory.bsky.social

It's very, very telling, I think, that the markets are so concerned about the pro-democracy incumbent winning

Posting again because of better time, selling this elf as an adopt, it's a design I made for a D&D campaign and never used it, and since I'm in need of money might as well. It'll be painted in a couple of days, you get to choose the color if you want, let me know if you're interested!

Old enough to remember when Joseph Gordon Levitt stood on stage to promote a crowd sourced asset strategy to revolutionize game creation in the middle of bg&e 2’s “development” and one of its many announcements.

kids love being scared. it’s why goosebumps was such a huge hit back in the 90s let children’s media challenge the audience and scare them and make them a bit uncomfortable. it’ll stick with them

I was telling my husband after we left the movie that it was giving me 80s dark fantasy vibes where if I watched this when I was 8, it probably would have scared me but I would have demanded we buy so I can watch it a million times.

There's simply no excuse for this. Sucker Punch has delivered two back-to-back acclaimed and high selling games. This team should be safe and celebrated. and yet this industry continues to be fucking demonic.
