“Unsubscribe from Disney+. Pirate Owl House. I don’t care. Fuck gen AI.”

A screenshot of Dora's Medium post, titled "I blew the whistle on workplace abuses at ZA/UM. In return, ZA/UM tried to defame me."

Since we published our follow-up, both Argo and Dora have now publicly responded to ZA/UM's statements about them in the documentary, which they strongly reject and describe as defamatory.

And they brought a lot of screenshots too.

Effective immediately, I will no longer contribute to Waypoint. I suggest letting VICE's owner know if this upsets you

Panel 1: Lilith is bending down to reach for a pencil she dropped on the ground, but bumps her head on a countertop. Panel 2: Lilith starts to stand back up with the pencil and bumps her head on a shelf above. Panel 3: Ana is looking at her with a cruelly amused expression. She says "oh my god, she's such a loser..." Panel 4: There's a thought bubble coming from Ana's head showing her in a wedding dress getting married to Lilith. Panel 5: The thought bubble now shows them sitting on a park bench together, leaning on one another. Ana is now looking at the thought bubble, saying "HEY. HEY WHAT'S ALL THIS NOW??"

my actual life has been so poisoned by garbage claiming to be AI that now whenever sci-fi media features an actual artificial intelligence I am already primed to hate it

You can tell this is a really bad article for several reasons one of which it doesn’t know what “The Lifestyle” is code for and another in which it hand wrings for not drug testing for psychedelics and this happens within a paragraph of each other.

Screenshot of the Australian Bureau of Statistics website. ABS releases first ever estimates of LGBTI+ Australians Media Release Released 19/12/2024 Estimates and characteristics of LGBTI+ populations in Australia, 2022 Today the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) released experimental estimates of LGBTI+ populations. These estimates are the first of their kind in Australia. In a new approach, the ABS combined data from nearly 45,000 people who responded to one of four recent ABS health surveys to shed light on LGBTI+ people in Australia. Linda Fardell, ABS head of health statistics, said: ‘The new data shows that about 4.5 per cent of all Australians 16 years and older are LGBTI+; that’s over 900,000 people.’ ‘Younger Australians are more likely to be LGBTI+. Nearly 10 per cent of Australians aged 16 to 24 years are LGBTI+.’

Hi! I'm a queer games researcher. The Australian Bureau of Statistics just put out an estimate of over 900,000 Australians identify at LGBTI+. I want to talk about that!

One of my favorite things in the world is seeing trans people use this panel as a talisman for strength and hope.

How I feel about stuff like industry awards can be summed up perfectly by the incredible Coffee Talk by @togeproductions.bsky.social

Working conditions in the games industry are getting worse, and we're all losing out because of it except those at the top

Being this used to the "norm" is wrong

If all you did in 2024 was survive
That's enough

If all you do in 2025 is survive
That's enough

I can't say things will get better
I can't say they won't get worse
But you will survive, in whatever way you can, and that is all you need to do

You aren't alone, I'm proud of you, you will make it 🫂

From pixelart adventure game Technobabylon. In a virtual reality bar a character stands at the bar, asking the bartender for "A glass of your finest estrogen, sir."

From pixelart adventure game Void & Meddler, a character stands in a dimly lit tunnel with fog obscuring the background, on the wall are posters of transgender symbols being held together by stickfigure child with the message "Family Don't forget me"

I need more point & click adventure games that are trans as fuck

Of all the P&C adventures I've played over the decades, the only ones I can directly point to as having solid trans themes are Technobabylon (@technocratgames.bsky.social) & Void and Meddler

Maybe I need to trans up the genre some 🤔

I am sooo floaty rn, I can't keep thoughts in my head

First day on Cymbalta and impressively it gave me a headache and made me sleepy, floaty, and horny all at once

Picture of two hands, one is holding a paint brush drawing the ball joints on the other hand. Their hands are shaking as tears stain their work table

It's having a hard time replicating its form

coveralls+tied off around the waist+slutty little tank top+cute lesbian+broad shoulders. repost. you agree

If she's your girl why is she capitalizing my pronouns?

the great thing about writing fucked-up petplay is that there's just so many classic notes to hit

Me wanting a designer pussy Me wanting more girlcocks

My mind is an enigma

we are sober except for sometimes our owner will pin us down and spit mouthfuls of whatever she's drinking down our throat. as far as we can tell AA does not make a chip for that.

many of you!!!

Go on, TAKE IT!!!

I'd just started binging Hekate's Call and I *knewww* she reminded me of someone!

I'm not allowed to get girls collars anymore because I'm too irresponsible but I think girls without their collars should feel like Hounds without their muzzles. Constantly reaching for where it should be. Feel its absence like an unshakable burden. And have it lifted when it's locked back in place.
