the video game industry was a 40 year long sociological experiment conducted by Harvard University. the study is now complete. thank you for your time

it's pretty fucked up that as a society we managed to turn wolves into perfect little cuddlebugs and then 17 thousand years later went "what if we abuse some of them until they become cops"

Took my icon comms down to 10€ as this month I really need some extra money! My cat had to get all his teeth removed and it cost a little over 600€ 😅 Could you please share and help me out? Thank you! Picture of the culprit of my bankruptcy attached lolol ko-fi.com/c/a1765ad8e0 #art #artsky

hi everyone! Recovery is harder & more expensive than expected. I'm still healing & underestimated what this would actually cost. If you're able to donate or share, every bit helps. Full details are on my latest GoFundMe update. Thank you for staying with me through this. Reposts appreciated. 🏳️‍⚧️💜🏳️‍⚧️

not now babe, I'm trying to increase my cuck level

this has all ended up costing WAY more than the initial estimate, so please donate if you can. but I’m so relieved that she’s here and happy and alive. if I had to do it all again, I wouldn’t change a thing

Thanks to @deantak.bsky.social for sitting down with Guillaume Provost to talk about Compulsion’s independence. Every game you buy now directly supports Compulsion and helps fund our next project. gamesbeat.com/compulsion-g...

I’m glad that there’s been more coverage of this, but I must also point out that we - the actual Lebanese - have been saying that Israel’s goal is to make south Lebanon unliveable for nearly 2 years. I said this myself multiple times. We are simply not believed *because* we are Lebanese.

Something small that I will never forgive these AI companies for ruining is cute animal pictures and videos. It was one of the simple joys in life, a cornerstone of the internet, and now I have to pixel peep them every time to make sure I didn't get got by the slop machine

Not to be some wild-eyed innocent, but I think it should be slightly bigger news that The Lancet have crunched the numbers and found that Musk's USAID cuts will kill 14 million people. And that's just by 2030. That's 9,600 people a day, every day, until the next world cup rolls around.

In response to the unprecedented number of game developers laid off this year, we have created a bundle on itch to benefit a Game Industry Hardship Fund, managed by @videogameworkers.bsky.social. More than 100 games for 10+ bucks! Please share widely and donate generously! itch.io/b/3802/game-...

This is Israel’s deliberate policy of ongoing Nakba. To maintain business as usual with the genocidal state of Israel or any of its complicit companies and institutions is to be complicit too. We need you to channel your rage, frustration, and grief into effective, strategic BDS action now.

satan: everything's ready for mcconnell, i'm sure he'll be here any second now- lindsey graham:

Israel destroying entire villages in Southern Lebanon with HUGE explosions and almost 0 coverage. I can't find any coverage on this besides Al Jazeera and individual Lebanese accounts on X. Same play like Gaza, just saying it is to root out Hezbollah, targeting tunnels bs

So much reporting (including, shamefully, movement reporting) on Prairieland picks Champagne out as the "bad" protestor. Because they were armed. Because they shot a cop. Nevermind the fact that, more likely than not, that it was Champagne's quick reflexes that meant that no one died that day.

Here is a statement from Champagne, aka Benjamin Song, the most maligned of the Priarieland protestors. Champagne was just sentenced to 100 years for shooting and injuring a police officer who had just drawn a weapon on an unarmed, fleeing protestor. prairielanddefendants.com/defendant-wr...

For an industry that claims it wants new stories with new protagonists, new IPs with character, and stories that haven't been done before. There is virtually no long-term support for the studios that take the risk of creating these games. It's not sustainable.

Okay, I hate to do this, but I might need some financial support as my PC has gone kaput at the worst possible moment, right during the run up to the AA Showcase. If any of you are able to help offer support I'd really appreciate it x PayPal.me/LauraKBuzz

Just a reminder, this is a very urgent request for someone who is really a wonderful person. Please help or spread the word if you can!

You may have noticed I disappeared from social media after my launch of @beyondxandy.bsky.social I was violently attacked by a transphobe who recognized me and have been in the hospital and resting If you'd like to help me with my medical bills, please consider donating here: gofund.me/9328f91f2

Sama'a and her girls live in danger every single day, and still the mundane necessities of life must be attended to. Diapers need changing, children need food and medicine. Please give what you can. chuffed.org/project/1575...
