rockstar can pull this kind of grotesque, extremely illegal immediate firing of workers exercising their right to unionize because they assume governments will take the side of the big multi-billion dollar entertainment company every time; an assumption that almost always pays off.

BREAKING: A UK judge has *denied* interim pay to the 31 employees fired by Rockstar Games last year, saying she "was unable to conclude that it appears likely that the tribunal will find that the principal reason for the claimants’ dismissal" was union organizing www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.

This could be you.
Distraught woman says ICE killed her wife in video after deadly Minneapolis shooting "They killed my wife," the distraught woman says, adding, "They shot her in the head." An ICE agent shot and killed a 37-year-old woman who was driving an SUV in Minneapolis on Wednesday. / Screenshot/@Breaking911 "They killed my wife. I don't know what to do," the woman says through sobs in the footage, with a damaged SUV visible in the distance behind her. "We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head," the woman cries. "We have a six-year-old at school," she says, almost unable to breathe, as a chaotic scene in which federal officers prevented at least one doctor who was on the scene from assisting the shot victim unfolds. "We're new here," the distraught woman says in despair.

prediction markets like polymarket and kalshi are the sports betting craze taken to its furthest logical endpoint. users can gamble on anything: netflix/WB, the US bombing venezuelan ships, and of course, the game awards, which have seen nearly $40 million in activity. it’s as grim as it sounds
While obvious offshoots of the sports gambling craze that has swept the nation in recent years – promising impoverished citizens a last-ditch means of getting out of debt while actually just miring them in more – Polymarket and Kalshi have recognized that their fortunes are tied to news. The two have approached this in different ways. Kalshi recently struck deals with both CNN and CNBC to integrate its prediction data across the networks’ programming. In a press release, Kalshi cited the fact that it "recently called the NYC Mayoral election eight minutes after polls closed, hours before the media" as evidence that this is good for news and society, actually, and not yet another rotten seed that will eventually sprout an ill-gotten money tree. Also, the system is easily gamed, as Slate recently pointed out: If a Republican political firm wanted to buy $50,000 in contracts on the GOP to win the House, that purchase alone could move the price — and thus the implied odds — significantly. If a Republican political consultant wanted to buy $100,000 worth of contracts on the GOP to hold the House, they could materially move the price and thus the implied odds. With CNN providing free media coverage of the party’s improving chances, wouldn’t that be a compelling alternative to simply buying some commercial time? Are you starting to see the problem with a major news channel using an opaque tool of financial speculation to sum up conventional wisdom about an election? Polymarket, on the other hand, has favored a more digital-first approach, striking a deal with Twitter to become the platform’s official prediction partner and going all-in on news aggregation with both its official account (which has over 800,000 followers) and offshoots, including NewsWire US, a separate aggregator it recently purchased. Both Polymarket and Kalshi have also partnered with various influencers, some laughably disreputable.

Two things can be true: 1.) The Game Awards are meaningless and we shouldn't take them all that seriously. 2.) Award shows of its scale DO rewrite the mainstream history of the art form, whether they deserve to or not, and its okay to care that it's so thoughtless despite having that responsibility.

i'm sorry to have to relay this, but Leslie Lee III has passed away. if you can help with his family's expenses, please read on. they need the help right now.
Please read. -YB. All proceeds from the GoFundMe will go to cover funeral costs and as temporary replacement of loss of income. This is YB, @stuffhedoes Leslie’s spouse. I am sad to share with you the tragic news of his passing on Monday, November 10th, aged 43. Leslie Lee III was a beloved husband, son, brother, uncle, cousin, nephew, and friend. He left us much too soon. I appreciate your kindness at this time, while we process our grief. If you wish, you can donate directly to his gofundme linked in his profile, any later news I will post from this account. A private service for family is being held this week with a memorial service to be held at a later date in NYC. He was to me, my everything. He was an advocate for others with Long COVID. He was an amazing writer and passionate podcaster.

The cynicism of The Game Awards, in a nutshell:

“You have the influence, you have the power, and you can change sh*t,” Lora said, “But ever since [we pushed back] it was like, ‘This is too much trouble, might as well peace out’.”

Great piece.
