When trans creators are subtle, people dismiss the trans subtext as “headcanon.” When trans creators are loud and proud, people call it “obnoxious” and “cringe.” They just don’t want us to be represented in media at all. Because they don’t want us to exist at all.

I love being reminded that the audience really doesn’t give a shit about the developers. Like, forget that one of the most influential studios in our industry was just executed by its publisher, just make sure the product continues on the assembly lines!

After hearing news of BioWare's closure on Wednesday, over 75,000 Mass Effect fans have signed a petition demanding that EA put another studio in charge of the franchise or license out the IP. https://bit.ly/4siIubW

Is there any video game company more cringe and embarrassing than Epic Games right now?

Cale Michael@xjustified.bsky.social

This shit just writes itself at this point. Just the name "Epic AI MegaJam" is a joke that best describes what is going on with these companies.

Art transcends wealth and power That's why billionaires hate it - hoarding and controlling is all they understand, and so they can never truly comprehend the beauty and soul of the greatest works of art They destroy it, for they buy what they do not control, and destroy what they cannot buy

There are ways around this. They involve trusts. Get your aging parents to talk to a lawyer to keep their assets protected.

if millennials could afford homes this wouldnt be a problem but this is going to hit the generation like a truck

This means that the increased price of RAM and consumer electronics was a result of an artificial "supply chain crisis" created by Jensen Huang pushing NVIDIA's customers to take early delivery of GPUs. Jensen Huang is responsible for making life worse for everyone.

Ed Zitron@edzitron.com

NVIDIA seems to be channel stuffing, forcing Amazon and other customers to take early delivery. The argument that these things are "scarce" when you don't even have anywhere to plug them into is nonsense...unless NVIDIA is saying you NEED to take them now, or else. GPUs are stacked in warehouses.

If this passes, this could be the most important piece of consumer protection in the digital age.

A US lawmaker has announced plans to introduce a new bill that would give gamers ownership of the games they buy 🎮 The Power To The Players Act would require publishers to make games playable offline before shutting down their servers

Meta took down the No Kings instagram; TikTok banned the Musk documentary account for supposedly violating its political posting policies. A reminder that platforms are owned by the wealthiest of people, control the means of media distribution, & put their thumbs on the democracy scale as they wish

Sadly this. All of these fuckin platforms have AI, but most of them at least have the good sense to keep it isolated. Twitter’s baked its AI shit into regular posts now, where anyone can just reply “Hey Grok, make her wear a see-thru bikini lmao” and create non-consensual porn. It’s *encouraged*.

What the hell, laws shouldn't be in place to limit artistic expression like this Imagine getting prison time over drawing furry smut, what the hell that's so dystopian :(

Roleplaying incest scenarios in porn will be criminalized in the UK as of next month, 2 years in prison for possession and 5 years for publishing I don’t know what to say that I haven’t said, this is bleak as fuck Any UK ABDL furries should also be extremely weary as this law targets you too

Needless to say, transmedicalism is utter bullshit, for a whole buncha reasons. Trans people are trans people whether or not they are transitioning, full stop.

The Nerdskull@nerdskull.bsky.social

I don’t understand how transphobic trans people get these kind of brain worms. “Transmedicalists don’t exist! I’m not a transmedicalist, I just believe in the literal definition of transmedicalism!”

Trans people said things like this would start happening. Amazingly, the people who can predict most closely what it like living under fascism are those fascism targets.

A Texas district canceled a high school production of "Little Shop of Horrors" after a girl was cast as Seymour. Officials cited the state's anti-drag law (which was struck down in court), then offered other lazy excuses. What a debacle. www.friendlyatheist.com/p/texas-scho...

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

Epic Games laid off 1000 workers back in March to push the company into this "AI-first" direction; Giving them your money means even more people will lose their jobs and future career opportunities across the entire industry. Don't spend money on Fortnite nor anything else on the Epic Games Store.

Jason Schreier@jasonschreier.bsky.social

NEW: Epic Games has delayed its upcoming (not yet announced) Star Wars + Marvel shooter as it pivots to complete AI game development. "No more hand-written code," a director told staff. All art "generated with full AI workflows." Full scoop: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

This is more common than you’d sadly think. In the anime voice acting sphere, there is a series of animated films made by an actual cult known as Happy Science. A lot of household name actors have voiced in these; I doubt many of them knew that when they recorded. Sometimes it’s just a paycheck.

Ant@agramuglia.bsky.social

So Danny Trejo was manipulated and tricked into being in Ben Shapiro's newest film. Holy shit.
