Derry = America

Portrayed as a perfect place

Ignores violence, overt racism and bigotry.

Tries to bury the memories (when you bury something it goes where? Underground like the missing kids)

And forgets (or tries to forget) about the violent history.

Cycle of violence eventually starts again.
The white people in Derry being scarier than IT could ever be is the real tea. Bc wym you orchestrated a lynching bc you miss your daddy?????

Isn't it weird how Paramount released a documentary called "Predators" where they imply the men caught on To Catch a Predator were falsely accused of the crimes they committed on camera?

Love to see the Sedgwick County Zoo putting out a good explainer on why GenAI slop videos of animals are a problem & how to identify them! It’s succinct, easy to read, and doesn’t shame people for not knowing better. A+ useful link to share with family and friends.

Open AI doesn't want to be transparent about what's in their datasets - this bill would force them. If you're pro AI regulation (esp if you're in Bay Area), please show up and offer your support for this bill! If you can't make it, help spread the word!

I’m okay with buying a HP Lovecraft book because his xenophobic racist ass is dead and no longer actively harming folks. You can’t say the same about JK’s terf ass. You are actively helping her continue to hurt people.
Hey yall not what I wanted to do on my birthday but let it be clear

"Death of the artist" is all well & good but you cannot Seperate the art from the artist when the artist is still alive, a terf & every penny they recieve reinforces their beliefs & is used to actively harm Trans folks!

Let it Go!

While Keighley partied at the game awards with big names, their up and coming "future class" of game devs had to leave and have a meetup at a local starbucks instead.

They were promised support & got basically nothing but disrespect & now they are getting canned

the best way to get out of an extrinsic game that you find yourself still playing despite disliking is to just force yourself to miss an event in-game. if you're the completionist type it's an extremely fast way to sever yourself from it

Congress’s shutdown deal eliminated key food safety rules, blocking agencies from enforcing measures to prevent contamination and trace outbreaks. This rollback has coincided with a surge in hospitalizations and deaths from foodborne illnesses.

i still personally thinks its REALLY cool that one of the ex-E3 hosts can innovate gaming so hard that he recreated the worst parts of E3

people who claim to love video games only love the video games that pay them money and geoff has done a great job showcasing that to the public at large

ah yes: my fav award show ended up using indie game devs during the pandemic to juice numbers/recognition in a desperate attempt to stay relevant and now has axed the program bc don't want to be accountable for the people they "uplifted".

i want to say i'm disappointed but that would imply surprise
EXCLUSIVE on @gamedeveloper.bsky.social: not only has The Game Awards not nominated a Future Class for 2025, it's told alumni it "does not have any active programming plans" for the award.

The Future Class page was taken down sometime this year—eliminating a definitive archive of honorees.
The Game Awards' Future Class program remains on ice
Future Class organizer Emily Weir has informed past honorees that The Game Awards has no active plans for the program.

What I found hilarious was getting the honor of being future class and then told we couldnt walk the red carpet. What was the nail in the head for me was being put in a corner a few years ago behind the camera and then made to feel like we should be thankful for even being in the room.

Big agree w/ ^^^. I wish more people would come to terms with this. The "Law" is not some protective force of nature that cannot be circumvented; it is a construct that, in the hands of bad-faith actors, changes and is applied to people unequally in order to enact their goals.
This case was appealed up to the Supreme Court and they ended up allowing the Feds to continue with their race-based roving patrols in Los Angeles.

All I’m saying we shouldn’t be loudly proclaiming “they can’t do that!” when it’s been proven that they can in-fact bend the law to their will…
🚨 In Los Angeles, ICE and Border Patrol are banned from stopping and questioning people based solely on:

- Their race/ethnicity
- Speaking Spanish or having an accent
- Being at a specific place (e.g. hanging outside Home Depot where day laborers congregate)
- Doing specific work (e.g. landscaping)

Metadata Shows the FBI’s ‘Raw’ Jeffrey Epstein Prison Video Was Likely Modified
There is no evidence the footage was deceptively manipulated, but ambiguities around how the video was processed may further fuel conspiracy theories about Epstein's death.
