Some of our members in Game Workers Unite Ireland were in Paris for a union summit today and joined the STJV and other European game worker unions for a solidarity protest outside Take Two offices.
The blatant union busting firing of the Rockstar 31 workers can not stand. Reinstate them now!

i think one of my biggest problems with genAI is that it's not empowering. in fact it's doing the opposite of them; it's removing critical thought and essentially taking power from us. our brains are so valuable, why would we want to lose that?

It’s spooky season 🍂🎃👻 (as far as I’m concerned) and I have a recommendation to get in the spooky spirirt!
If you like atmospheric, eerie and dread inducing explorations of the darkest parts of our world, and our hearts, check out the incredible game We Went Deeper.
