October 26 2000, Majora's Mask debuted on the N64 in the Americas! Development started out of a lack of enthusiasm to work on the expansion for Ocarina of Time, N64DD's "Ura Zelda". Eiji Aonuma protested, so Miyamoto challenged him to make a sequel for the game by next year! And he did!

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...

See now we're fucking talking One of the only weapons we wield in this fight is our money and attendance, and if everyone involved with an event says "I'm not going unless you stop using AI" there's only two outcomes: *No AI or No Convention* Conventions are made by and for the community

I'm THRILLED to announce that I will be part of this fundraising event! Donate $20 or more during the event for a drawing of your OC. You can't specifically request an artist, but there is always a chance that I might take your character under my wing. (1/2)

despite the flaws of bluesky, it’s led me to an amazing group of folks & friends. unlike twitter, where it’s constant ragebait & hatred that goes UNCHECKED and is, in fact, encouraged. at lease here, the mute/block/filter system works. i get to choose my bubble here. FUCK TWITTER. FUCK ELON MUSK.

It's not enough for weirdo mail carriers who like Quest 64 to say "I'm not playing games with GenAI in them" *Streamers need to stop playing them & mods made with AI *Review outlets need to stop giving them coverage and accepting codes and PUBLICLY SAY WHY *Modders need to stop using the AI tools

My rationale for my mission to play old games came from the realization that a lot of really good games get missed every year. I did some research and discovered that very few games are actually bad. And a LOT of games get regarded as good to great but never really find their mass audience.

greatestgames.substack.comA Moment of Realization - Great Games are More Common Than We RealizeHere's why I started this research project, and why so many good games get missed by gamers - there are just too many for any single person to play!

whether folks want to admit it or not, we are living through another wave of collective depression. living costs, unemployment, daily news, etc. it adds up, & dwells in the mind for hours— days, even. be gentle with one another. check in. help where you can, & just remind someone that you care. 💜
