INTRODUCING! Hannah Spencer The new Green MP for GORTON & DENTON Green Party Promoted by Chris Williams on behalf of The Green Party, both at PO Box 78066, London SE16 9GQ

Introducing Hannah Spencer MP 💚

anyone familiar with British politics will know that any news that isn't entirely negative will be closely followed by a sustained bombardment of misery that will make you want to fucking die. but currently it's Friday, it's payday, and the fascists have lost

if there’s any surprise about these results it’s that labour aren’t lower

huge! let’s go!!

only the greens can stop reform, a vote for labour is utterly wasted right now, they are collapsing everywhere

don’t get my hopes up

A screenshot of three 3D armored arms showing object space normals. On the far left, labeled Base, is an arm with smooth color gradients. In the middle, labeled Posterize, is the same arm with fewer colors in big bands. On the right, labeled Smudge, is the posterized normal map with smudges to turn it into something that looks painted.

In case anyone's interested, this is the process I'm using to generate normals for the painterly portfolio project I'm working on. This is in Substance Painter, but you could also do it in Photoshop or 3D Coat

I convert them to tangent space after the fact, but you could also do that in a shader

Big news! 🎉

My second Gaelic horror game Grease Trap ’99 just got funding from Creative Scotland’s Open Fund!

Retro PS1-style horror set in a Scottish chippy. Fully voice-acted in Gaelic. You’re frying fish, making curry sauce, taking orders… while something malevolent grows beneath the surface 👀🐟

Tourette syndrome activist John Davidson says Bafta told him ‘any swearing would be edited out of the broadcast’ Davidson said he ‘can’t begin to explain how upset and distraught I have been’ over slurs he shouted during the award ceremony

So the BBC promised Davidson and StudioCanal (who made I Swear) that any swearing tics would be edited out from broadcast, and instead they left them in despite a two hour delay, and even put a fucking microphone right in front of him to ensure they picked it up - he was sat at the back of room.

(trying to market my game) um, have you heard of austria? Uh, yeah I guess it's sort of like germany. it's a bit different though. do you know about its history? oh. no that's ok. um. you dont have to. well it's not like that at all really its fiction. but. the characters - they say "oida".

this piece is the first one in my loose series I’m hoping to do this year about women, writing, and games. I’d love to speak to more women game writers/developers about their work and experiences!

Tunic, Night in the Woods Publisher Says TikTok Is Creating and Running Racist GenAI Ads for Its Games Without Permission - IGN Publisher Finji says that TikTok has been using generative AI to modify its ads on the platform without permission and pushing those ads to its users without Finji's knowledge, including at least one ...

Dug into this absolutely wild thing happening to Finji. The deeper I read into their increasingly baffling conversations with TikTok "support" the more I felt like I was on something.

Israel used weapons in Gaza that made thousands of Palestinians evaporate US-made thermal weapons burning at 3,500C caused 2,842 people to "evaporate" in Gaza, Al Jazeera investigation finds.

“Four of my children just evaporated,” Badran said, holding back tears. “I looked for them a million times. Not a piece was left. Where did they go?”

There are no words to adequately describe the evil here.

Something compelled me to make this

Investigation demanded into Keir Starmer's comms chief's lobbying links Tim Allan's minority ownership of a lobbying firm has led to accusations of a perception of a conflict of interest.

Tim Allan may be getting less attention than Morgan McSweeney, but his links raised serious questions - and they’re part of the wider pattern of questionable appointments.

This isn’t really about individuals.

It’s about the state of the Labour Party.
