I contributed to this!! Very glad to finally get a chance to touch on the topic of Economy & Commerce as a Narrative Tool (at least as an introduction).
I had the opportunity to read a couple of snippets from other articles as well, and it's going to be real good!! 🎮✒️

Tapping the sign on this one because it applies in general to most things.
Also: helping yourself understand WHY you like something, visually, narratively, etc, will help you better deliver. Not the WHAT you like, but WHY it compels you. It's something ai isnt capable of doing. Intent is something that only a human hand can deliver.

We gather here at PEACOCK SQUARE, 2-4 PM PT TODAY to celebrate the life of a once vibrant game industry, killed far too soon by greedy bosses. Wear your mourning fit, and join us for a candlelight vigil in front of The Game Awards, because THE INDUSTRY IS DEAD!

Social media and the parallel evolution of “cringe” has robbed the world of whimsy and color.
There were times not long ago when the absurd and outlandish could fire our imaginations.
Never forget what they took from you!

Resharing this again. I have until TOMORROW morning to raise $850. Literally any dollar amount donation is helpful, and if you can’t spare anything, sharing the post is a huge help too. We just really need to keep this roof over our heads.
Reaching out again with a mutual aid request, trying to make it through the next week. Anything helps, even just sharing this post when you see it. Thank you!

You are not Making a Difference there. You are not Fighting the Good Fight. You are not even Maintaining a Community you couldn't easily replicate elsewhere.
You are propping up a right-wing site and, worse, you are being warped by your constant exposure to it and you don't even realize it.

No matter what #Musk says or does, many on the left continue to post on and pay for X, a clear example of how progressive movements are beholden to the narrative that we don't have to change anything at all about our lives to achieve our political goals.

My contract with Blizzard sadly ends in just two weeks. Come October, I'll be looking for fulltime or contract work as a senior writer or narrative designer. If you need someone who can write sharp characters, poetic prose, and emotional stories, I'm available! www.hazelmonforton.com
It's #portfolioday! I'm presently a senior narrative designer at Blizzard, but before that I was at Bungie and Arkane. I wrote for the Writer's Guild award-nominated Dishonored: Death of the Outsider, and a bunch of critically acclaimed seasons and expansions in Destiny 2.
