I finished Ambrosia Sky: Act One by @softrains.bsky.social , and I can confirm that I had a great time. 🖖

The lore is interesting, the story is moving, the gameplay is very fun (halfway between a narrative and meditative game, a washing game, and System Shock 😁), and the art direction is fresh.

Transphobia makes cisgendered people less safe.

It’s not the most important reason to oppose transphobia. But it’s another good reason.
The EHRC want to exclude women from femal single-sex spaces based on how "female" they look.

This is off the scale sexism and misogyny.

Millions of women will face harassment as result of this insanity.

When allegiance to a multi-media franchise brand eclipses critical engagement, even the most idealistic communities risk being co-opted by forces that run counter to the values they once championed.

Star Trek is now owned by problematic people.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 isn't just a good game, it's excellent science fiction storytelling.

This should be one of the frontrunners for next year's Hugo Award for Best Game.

This story is infinitely more important than GTA getting delayed. Don't let me catch you moaning about waiting longer for a video game if you're not mad about why it happened.

"The Alien slogan has been named to countless lists of the best movie taglines ever written. New York Times critic Janet Maslin opened her review of Alien writing, “The thing that most made me want to see Alien was that irresistible line they’ve been using in the ads.”

On the school library side, I've been telling teachers "prompt engineering" isn't a thing. Furthermore, it's not my job to teach kids how to use one specific piece of software but to teach them interdisciplinary and cross-platform research skills.
Teaching students “AI prompt engineering” is such an offensive perversion of inquiry based education it makes me breathe fire.
genuinely what the fuck is an "ai skill" that isn't basic reading comprehension, skepticism, the ability to evaluate sources, and, like, typing?

That’s why you can still find good shit in indie spheres! Good art has never gone anywhere. But the obnoxious hypocrisy in mainstream circles and especially in the pro ai people is stunning. Norman Rockwell would not be able to make work under the conditions placed on artists today.

These people have extreme disdain for artists and blame the perceived quality problems on some imagined cultural shift, when the cultural shift is consumerism and capitalism continuously squeezing out the people who make stuff and not being interesting in giving them time or space to make things.

SO much of the cultural and artistic nostalgia that society chases was just art made when people got paid to do it. Lavish movie posters made by human artists, video games made by people without sixteen different investment companies breathing down their neck, movies made by studios taking a chance.
