we should all be pissed off at this btw.
if not because sex work is legitimate work and should be treated with respect, then because you should be concerned at attempts to gentrify online spaces as pretext to court investors and force out minorities so those spaces can become part of a portfolio.
EA's closure of BioWare is transparently a vile move to shutter the studio that made by far their queerest titles. In the wake of this, I implore you:
MAKE MORE QUEER ART.
Make it trans. Make it horny. Make it scary. Make it loving. Make it with every inch of yourself. Flood the world with it!
The video game industry has become a never-ending, deeply senseless waste of money, talent, creative potential, and, most of all, humans' precious time on this earth.
All scrapped in the name of maximising potential profits and chasing impossible, infinite growth.
it cannot actually be ignored or danced around that the closure of BioWare came so soon after the Saudi and Jared Kushner acquisition of EA. they absolutely did take the studio making EA’s broadly queerest games out back and shoot it old yeller style. do not let yourself or colleagues ignore that

times r tough... we're working on some really cool stuff, but hard to move at a good clip when money is so tight. anything you can give contributes significantly to both rachel's comfort & helping us release another videogame
i make practically nothing from my job, i have next to nothing in my bank account, and i can’t keep piling on more commissions. to keep my head afloat, i’m opening up a ko-fi where you can support me in whatever way you’re able. even five dollars is an enormous help.
thank you

I said this elsewhere, but this is very unfair to cucks. Vibe coders don't care at all what's in their projects, but while cucks are extremely invested in what's going inside their wives. 😔
Your value isn't dependent on the money you make, the roles you book, the numbers underneath your shitposts, etc.
Your value is right there, and it was there the moment you existed, and cannot be taken.
I know you can't see it. But you are worth so much.
Don't let anyone make you feel otherwise.
Konami president Hayakawa believes AI “won’t bring a significant change” to the game market. “Humans” and “creators” are crucial for developing innovative…
My roommate watches a lot of youtube on their phone, so no adblock, and they keep getting ads for these AI "storytime" things, most of which are at least vaguely fantasy themed, hence why the algorithm keeps serving them to him, but are also very rapey and increasingly pedophilic and violent.
And we're just both fucking flabbergasted that youtube allows people to pay money to force other people to see this shit even though if it was posted as a regular video it would be clearly against TOS.
But, you know, goes to show exactly what kind of people keep making all this AI shit, also.
So we fly a pride flag in our front yard in a very conservative neighborhood and it’s been there for the last few years. Someone put this in our mailbox and my goodness…
Sod it: If you work in tech, keep the fuck away from anything funded by Hoxton Ventures. Con artists who intentionally screw over the staff at the companies they fund, underfund it so it can't possibly succeed, then strip it for parts.
Hoxton Ventures, Hussein Kanji, eat my entire ass.
the big thing the rise of LLMs has revealed to me is that there is a not insignificant chunk of the population that considers cognition itself to be a frustrating and unnecessary burden
I feel so powerless and pissed off at these people I don't know what to do
we had something so beautiful in game dev, I don't understand why you would willingly destroy it all in the name of productivity
