This is part of why the typical sneering at ‘auteurism’ in games discourse grates on me. Rather than acknowledging the creative efforts of people, you end up assigning authorship to ‘the team,’ which ultimately becomes ‘the company,’ which ultimately is just the corporate entity who holds ‘the IP.’
an awful part of our industry is that we are quick to say stuff like ‘auteurs are garbage, the team actually made it’ but when specific individual workers supply fantastic craft execution in impossible circumstances execs are v quick to erase that by diluting their credit/selling it as IP

This article by @jmbooyah.bsky.social is really good about the struggles that people from Gaza have on this platform and how Bluesky could have made different choices.

I’ll highlight the accounts of some of the Gazans in it below ❤️
Social media accounts of Palestinians desperate for funds are being flagged as spam
People in Gaza use Bluesky to crowdfund for milk and diapers – repeated deletion of their profiles has spawned a guerrilla verification squad

What job are you extremely unlikely to ever get that you think you would kick ass at?

I think I could book compelling wrestling storylines.

The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) has received tens of millions from the U.S. to distribute aid in Gaza.

Since it started operations, the number of locations in Gaza where residents could receive aid has plummeted from around 400 to four sites.

I wrote this column and I'll just say that the original headline was much meaner. The piece itself, though, is still very angry and very mean, I assure you.
