Mingus the Merciless

Awful. It's been altered in so many ways beyond "colourisation". The kid has an entirely different face! AI is being used in so many ways to undermine history, information, even reality.

Learned that I am being laid off from Heart Machine, and will be leaving the studio later this month.

Do you need a contractor? I've got a track record of leading scope-friendly script revisions late in dev. I have also done a lot of consulting on new IPs and pitches/demos. Feel free to DM me!

I get a lot of people asking how they could support us, and this is one of the ways: be one of the kind, positive people who listens to our interviews, who shares our voice in good faith whenever you can. You can seize our voice back for us. Seriously.

they reinvented twitter from first principles right as the most drugged out man in the world destroyed the last good bits of twitter. smart mgmt would realize that they’re just in the twitter business now, like how slack realized their pitch was irc for work after nobody cared about their game

Consumer-facing "A.i." is controlled by rightwing billionaires with an interest in spreading disinfo. Excise it from your lives, friends. It's trash.

just sent in my letter, and you should do the same here! bit.ly/KSRUletter

be sure to mention if you're a backer, and even more if you're a creator!

This week, the Global Sumud Flotilla tried to deliver life-saving aid to Gaza.

Instead, 461 people—including New Yorkers—have been detained by the Israeli military.

They must be freed at once. And the deliberate starvation of Palestinians must end now.

If anyone's got things they need a writer for, let me know. October's going to be a weird month as finances are running low and unemployment's not going to make up the gap, so anything that'll help work-wise is greatly appreciated!

Hell yeah HELL YEAH

A script you can use if you’re not good at speaking on the spot.

This is everything I thought it would be and worse. Genuinely, viscerally repulsive work. I feel like you have to be ghoulishly and fundamentally broken to find any bit of this okay.

Hi Internet! I'm Drew and THIS IS MY FACE.
