My pal Danielle Koenig shared that her father Walter Koenig passed away last night at age 90. A performer whose kindness and warmth shone through the screen. He will be well remembered.

Not only an incredible talent, but a rare talent who also thought it was funny to just voice random memes every once in a while

Lula winning is great for the planet, great for Brazil, and great for people who aren't revanchist assholes everywhere in the world, but let's not forget that it's also going to make some of the worst people on Earth extremely sad and mad. We should enjoy that, as a little treat.

Congrats to Lula on overcoming Mark Zuckerberg and Donald Trump to defeat Hospital Pervert Jr., even as his opposition literally blocked off roads and turned off bus service during election day. Fascists are scary but they are always, 100% of the time, ultimately gigantic fucking losers.

Nikola Corp. is one of many automakers that participated in California’s clean truck and bus grant program and have ceased operations. School districts, city agencies and local trucking fleets across California are now stuck with broken trucks and voided warranties.

Amidst all the talk about the "possibility" of AI guided warfare, NAZA presents the blunt reality: AI-guided warfare already exists, deployed by Netanyahu to maximize lethality and destruction in Gaza and other theaters. This is an invaluable documentation of an emerging socio-political nightmare.

The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead: www.ispot.tv/ad/SoDi/micr...

Seconding the 'please, if you have room and inclination, adopt' because what if you DO adopt some little creecher and you're like "I have never had a cat before, he is very cute but what do I do with him" and he's like "YOU DO THIS" for a solid month (Photo from July 2022)

I was lucky enough to get my hands on an advance copy of A Dark and Narrow House by @usmantm.bsky.social. I remember Usman telling me a very little about the novel he was working on while at a WorldCon many moons ago, and I've been looking forward to reading it ever since!

NEW from me: Beth Fuller was a 10-year CDC contractor when she was DOGE'd last year by Trump + Elon Musk, a mass layoff process cheered by the GOP. Now she's a candidate in a key swing district that could end the GOP’s decades-long grip on total power in Georgia. www.huffpost.com/entry/beth-f...

I hope workers in other game studios see WoTC unionizing, and see the mass layoffs and BioWare closing and decide it's time to put their foot down. What do we have to lose by unionizing? A job that you're afraid every day you'll be laid off from anyway? UNIONIZE THE GAME INDUSTRY!
