Ok, since apparently I got nominated for @nyvgcc.bsky.social's award for game journalism based on this piece, I'll share it again: felipepepe.medium.com/the-gentrifi...
Happy that it resonated with so many people across the globe, it fits nicely in a year where Despelote united Latin America XD

When women speak, they are ignored. But in the end, they are always right. We never, ever learn.

All the best to her and a reminder that Michael Weatherly, who harassed her, was caught on camera doing so and was enthusiastically defended by CBS (who put Dushku through the wringer), is headlining an NCIS spinoff.
Nearly a decade after Eliza Dushku stepped away acting, the 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' alum is embarking on a new career in mental health counseling: 'True calling.'

Announcing: Mandrake!
You play the last of the Mandrakes, a sorcerous line of gardeners.
Horticulture is a cursed practice... except to you. Your family line is steeped in the green and growing arts, so you’re able to grow such marvels as: runner beans! Cherry trees! The humble turnip! 🌳

Hi. We're indie devs making Strange Antiquities, our follow-up to Strange Horticulture.
It's about collecting, identifying, and curating occult artefacts, running a shop, helping the townsfolk.
Sherlock Holmes-y, dark academia, atmosphere, and mystery. Follows appreciated.

I don't 'refuse to use' AI, I just don't use AI; in the same way that I don't shoplift, or plagiarise other people's books - it requires no effort of will, it's just not something I would think of doing
Bizarrely framed article about the people (all women) who ‘refuse to use AI’. And a #philosophy professor who says “The moment to opt out of #AI has already passed”. Oh well. That’s that then. 🤷♂️ #AIEthics www.bbc.com/news/article...
The people refusing to use AI
Worried about the environment and the loss of skills, some people are resisting the rise of AI.

Go read the Rivers of London series by Ben Aaronovich
It gives the same Britishness, sense of history, and magical powers, but with a setting of detectives and mysteries, and the characters from marginalized backgrounds are fully developed, not just caricatures.

Go read the Old Kingdom series by Garth Nix
It's about deadbeat dads, chosen ones, necromancy through the power of bells, and choosing kindness over pragmatism, acceptance over defiance, and integrity over expediency.
