ROCKSTAR UPDATE:

Keir Starmer was just asked about the Rockstar firings in Parliament today where he described the situation as "deeply concerning" and promised it would be looked into by government ministers.

Not that a Starmer promise is worth much, mind.

Video game giant Rockstar has sacked more than 30 workers across the UK, including my constituents working at their Edinburgh office. I urged Ministers to support workers who have lost their jobs, and stop this from happening again.

Absolutely despicable.

Massive congratulations to everyone involved!!! 🎉🎉🎉

The first of many ✊

"Epic says that until the end of 2026, creators will earn 100% of the V-Bucks value from sales made in their islands, with this changing to 50% in 2027".

Oof, sounds like we've got another Roblox-esque child labour exploitation machine on our hands 🙃

It was fun to finally start sharing a few findings from the survey and some interesting quotes from the surveys.

Also, I think I’m finally getting somewhere interesting with mobilisation theory - coupled with bits from cultural studies and discourse theory.

Last week, I presented part of my PhD research at the ILERA European Congress 2025, in a session on precarious work!

Thanks to the organisers and fellow panellists for their lovely questions!

Thanks for sharing! What are the issues with the report? Does it fudge gen AI and other things together?

Teachers Are Not OK AI, ChatGPT, and LLMs "have absolutely blown up what I try to accomplish with my teaching."

Research poster about culture funding in Scotland at the Royal Society of Edinburgh

Delighted to be presenting a poster about my @sgsss.bsky.social internship today! It was a real treat to get 3 months to nerd out about culture funding 🎭

The video thumbnail for PMG's original documentary, showing a white, American hand clasping cash in exchange for the labour of a Southeast Asian workforce, represented here as being weighed down by their immense workload.

Back in 2021, PMG reported on the unseen games industry crunch taking place at outsourcing studios in SE Asia.

Since then, the companies we looked at have continued to work on some of the biggest games in the world, without any push to improve the conditions of the artists doing that work. (1/7)

maybe this christmas we could have a bit less chappell roan - and a bit more chapel goin

@daiv.bsky.social did u do this

sounds like an unbeatable deal!!

A screenshot that shows I finished Death Stranding having ingested 13,397ml of water. Wowee

Death stranding was cool and all but now I wish all games would end by telling me how much water I ingested

Graphic that reads 'Thank you so much! 120 wonderful people took part in the survey! Stay tuned for updates!'

The survey is now CLOSED 🛑
