And we knew this. This wasn't speculation. We studied it, we had the talking points. We trained volunteers to explain this to people. It's not a surprise. Rich people don't flee places with good quality of life when we increase the quality of life. They might try to cheat us, but they don't leave.
NEW: The first two years of Massachusetts' millionaire tax has raised $3 billion more than expected.

And rather than driving the rich away, IPS researchers found that the number of millionaires has *increased.*

Learned last night that Rockstar Edinburgh, Lincoln and Dundee were all caught in the union-busting layoffs, but thankfully the more senior staff are speaking out against it internally with others checking out work early. Now the issue is being raised in parliament.
Video game giant Rockstar has sacked more than 30 workers across the UK, including my constituents working at their Edinburgh office. I urged Ministers to support workers who have lost their jobs, and stop this from happening again.

As a part of my ongoing series "I Am A Hopeless Fantasy Maps Dork", I did a vid on what a GM is going to be able to get out of the Dolmenwood maps book. I own a whole bunch of fantasy atlases, and I have never seen one quite like this. (I know that's the monster book, it was the better thumbnail!)

A German right wing tabloid proudly announces that it now has an AI, too, and presents it as a help to identify mushrooms. ...with a mushroom that is mildly poisonous, having a deadly mushroom as sibling.

Every video you make with Sora 2 costs OpenAI $5. This year they’ve spent the best part of a Trillion Dollars (one thousand billion) and brought in $12bn revenue. For them to be able to *break even* they’d need to increase the cost of every monthly subscription 10 times. They are so fucked.

A good thread on this kind of stuff, which creators should be aware of.

I will also note that a publisher-producer (especially with no creator producer) incentivises them to strike a deal for less option money (which is shared) and more producer fees (which aren't).
“Sources tell The Hollywood Reporter he earned high seven figures for the role, plus a seven-figure producing fee.”

I should do a blog post on this, but I’ll do a brief thread here, as it’s something in the comics industry that riles me up.

In Ireland we grow up learning about how in the Dark Ages pilgrims would travel here from all over Europe to read books that had been saved here while they were lost elsewhere & I think we need to get our politicians to think like this about things like Basic Income. A light for the darkening world.
