Tim Sweeney had made it clear, we need a ratings board that evaluates ethics in games design, one that call out generative AI usage, one that calls out bad faith micro transaction design, one that calls out crunch, one that calls out controlling interest opposed to human rights.

There can be no ethical use of Generative AI under a system that doesn't inform people of its use and doesn't provide opt-in training with monetary compensation for training materials. It's that simple.

I like games that you can play again and they're different the next time, like Necrodancer, Zelda randomizer, and gender identity! Also now I'm obsessed with pinball. My pronouns are she/her.

I didn't leave, but yesterday definitely left me... Defeated and somewhat betrayed. The folks that benefit from the system are defending the status quo, and just like @flannel.live they are my friends, peers, and even colleagues.
Folks are really fixated on a funny number over community.

Left the IFPA discord yesterday and it kind of hit me pretty hard.
Any attempts to talk about anything relevant are met with aggression from other community members.
People I thought I was friends with.
And honestly I'm a little messed up over it.

I hope that for every bridge that gets burnt, 2 more bridges will be built. It's clear that the community cares about this, and I hope this rallies the charge for other pinball social media (like HUPchallenge and a handful of podcasts) to join in with their voices.
I’m kinda risking burning bridges with some pinball industry contacts by making this video, but the entire Women’s Advisory board for the IFPA just resigned in protest, and we need to talk about this.

It should be emphasized, especially to those who wish to continue to support the IFPA and believe that they have made the right decision, that the actions and behaviors of the IFPA organization (+ the WAB resigning) have caused a lot of their friends and peers to lose trust in the IFPA. 1/?

Before I get into other things, I want to acknowledge that today is Transgender Day of Remembrance. It would be remiss not to reflect on the sacrifices and struggles that have led us to where we are today. Trans Rights are Human Rights, and I hope to pick up where those who came before me left off.

Every time you use AI slop in your game, even as a placeholder, even if it's supposed to be temporary, you're helping to destroy the video game industry little by little.
