My next couple streams for @intelligame.us are going to be IntelliTries: quick looks into recent games with some thoughtful flair.

Today's games: @ghmofficial.bsky.social 's ultraviolent Romeo is a Dead Man, and @nyamakop.co.za's reclamation heist Relooted!

some wild accusations have been thrown in Emergency Meetings lately… brb, calling in a defense expert 👀

a graph about wealth concentration

N of 1, but I think this is a good measure of the difference between X and Bluesky.
Zucman has 120K followers on X and his post on wealth concentration got 87 reposts/182 likes. One Bluesky he has 24.5K followers and the same post 327 reposts and 938 likes.

On top of our stream (STARTING NOW, TWITCH.TV/FRIENDSATTHETABLE), these are now live!

I just noticed the previous Brigandine is 80% off on Steam, if you want to get a cheap feel for what the series is about.

a screenshot of a tree that looks like a human bowing. the tree is large and covered in dandelion whisps. there is a poem at the base of the screen.

a screenshot looking up at old brutalist buildings. the buildings are abandoned.

The layoffs across games and games journalism have been disproportionately affecting the women in the industry, and even more so, black women.

Support the indies that champion their voices before it's too late (& please share more in the replies)

One thing that's fun is that if you're black and you don't have much experience, it's woke dei if you get the job, and if you're black and you have all the experience in the world, you're an out of touch elite who is not really black and doesn't deserve the job.

Black Women Are Losing Jobs At Three Times The Rate Of Other Women | Essence New labor data shows Black women accounted for a disproportionate share of job losses across 2025, especially in federal, education, and care-sector roles.

"Racist people are firing and laying off Black women at three times the rate of other women."

😬Yikes! It sounds bad when you say it like that!

"Black women are losing jobs at 3 times the rate."

Much better! Makes it sound like the Black women just need to be more careful or better at their jobs!

Sieve scripting? Do tell, lol

Unwinnable subscribers saw an excerpt of this last month, but here's the much, much longer convo I had with Autumn back in December about cultural criticism, my process, and a long, ongoing battle with alienation from my own taste and craft. A little rambly, apologies

This is why Minnesotans are begging folks outside the state to keep talking about us.

Please don’t let the world forget we are still in danger.

Every photo from Minneapolis looks like this. Cops decked out with guns and full tac gear facing off against people in bathrobes, parkas, and sweatpants armed only with whistles and cell phones.

Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.

preeeeeeecisely

Yeah, hate it lots

Just in case you haven't seen the gmail homepage lately

been past time to get off this shit, I know, but like...nobody asked for this

Erii @laylalightstar.bsky.social While cancelling Nitro is all well and good, just a reminder that age verification itself won't go away as a whole unless KOSA, the SCREEN Act, and tons more are buried and done with. Please contact your reps if you don't want this to spread to other platforms.

A very good point. While calling out corporations is important, our government is trying to force av laws like KOSA and SCREEN on EVERYONE under the guise of "protecting kids". Call your reps + tell them to OPPOSE these bad bills. #SaveSpeech #Stopageverification #StopKOSA

NEW: ICE has a plan to lease offices across the US as part of a secret, months-long expansion campaign.

Today, @wired.com is publishing dozens of those locations. Many are near schools, medical offices, and places of worship.

Vital work from @leahfeiger.bsky.social that I'm proud to publish.

It cannot be overstated that nothing on the ground here in Minneapolis has changed it has gotten worse and continues to get worse and our leadership is lying about it all.

It’s absolutely destabilizing watching the elite class moves back to business as usual as the citizens attempt to maintain
