The Internet Archive has a museum for the weirdest art of the early web. 🖼️ It’s called GifCities. Thousands of animated GIFs rescued from the first wave of the web. Glitter. Dancing. Cats. Strange little loops that survived. 💾 Go find your perfect retro GIF 👉 gifcities.org #ToolsYouCanUse

Those of us designing study programmes, putting together reading lists and writing text books increasingly face the question: what are the key texts of academic game studies? Bring your perspective to our workshop in Warsaw in November (as part of CEEGS 2026): ceegs.fsv.cuni.cz/wp-content/u...

Just a little short of $25k going to @wck.org at the moment. You could pick up the bundle and fiddle with the donation sliders to give World Central Kitchen more, and that would be groovy. www.humblebundle.com/books/john-s...
