It's wild that most of the content I see over on Twitter/X about Teen Vogue is people making fun of people posting about Teen Vogue on Bluesky. I'm not sure people understand how powerful Teen Vogue's political reporting has been over the past 10 years or so.

I don't think this EA acquisition/privatization thing is good for a lot of reasons. The people who will be hurt the most are the staff who make the games, then gamers.
If you're starting a new studio or even a game only, and need business (not $), marketing, comms, etc. help. I'm happy to help PT.

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid
