I made a zine! I talk about how you can avoid shitty games conversations online by shitty people, or at least try. It's made with Electric Zine Maker by @alienmelon.bsky.social & I had lots of fun with it

Today was Palestinian Independence Day.
As Trump and Netanyahu’s disastrous postwar plans become clear, the U.S. must recognize and respect Palestinian statehood — as 81% of the world already does.
Agency and dignity are the only ways we can achieve lasting peace.

I might be putting my tin-foil hat with this but it's kinda weird paypros are pressuring and making it a living hell for NSFW artists and creators but every AI company released adult options at the same time... 🤔
If they make it so people cannot buy porn they will have to ai generate it saving the tech bubble.

The only true loss would be if people who had unique stories to tell decided they needed AI to succeed. Gaming has had already such a short history with not enough perspectives about the human experience. Trust me, if you're a marginalised person making about rarely seen in game, DO NOT USE AI
"If you hate GenAI you're going to have to stop playing new games when they all start using it"
My brother in Christ, my backlog is literally thousands of games long. I have lifetimes worth of earlier titles to play, & I will gladly do that instead of boiling the oceans for a new CoD or whatever

children deserve way more legal rights than they currently have. too many of our laws were shaped by abusive parents. it’s way way way too easy for adults to deny kids basic self expression, education, and health care
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back
Insulting to the players, insulting to the IP, insulting to the medium, the developers. And the craft itself. Fuck you executives who pushed this garbage.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is littered with AI generated artwork which makes the $70 feel like a complete rip-off.

when you understand that patriarchy views children as sexual property it all makes sense. there's no hypocrisy. exposure to queerness & transness threatens to "corrupt" the father's property, to "lead them astray" into self-determination, to taint their future sexual value. CSA is permissible as >
Thatcher's government did this with Section 28, banned the "promotion of homosexuality" as a danger to children, while actively protecting Jimmy Savile and who knows how many other pedophiles. It's the same damn playbook.
I cannot begin to properly articulate how upsetting it is to have had people baselessly accuse trans people of being groomers and pedophiles only for it to come out that they were deliberately doing this as part of a project to provide cover to actual groomers and pedophiles in positions of power

As someone who has frequently defended free speech rights of sex workers and sex work advocates, it's completely unsurprising but nevertheless galling to be reminded once again how POWERFUL MEN talk fondly about sex work in private while demonizing it and pushing oppressive laws about it publicly.
