Dear @lucympowell.bsky.social,

I have enjoyed our exchange of letters about which of our parties is best placed to stop Reform. Hannah Spencer MP and I trust that you agree that this question has now been resolved once and for all.

Thanks,
Zack Polanski

Good morning.

If you've just woken up, the politics of hope just crushed the politics of fear and hatred (Labour-Reform).

It wasn't even close.

40.6% for the Greens. Reform second on 28.7%, Labour third on 25.4%.

obviously today is a huge embarrassment for Matt Goodwin and for Reform, which is something that we absolutely ought to celebrate, but we must also remember it's a huge embarrassment for Morgan McSweeney and Maurice Glasman and all the Blue Labour weirdos, and that's important to celebrate too :)

Anlife: what does an unusual evolution simulator have to say about AI? We explore the strange food-obsessed world of a new game whose tech was once called β€˜an insult to life itself’ by Hayao Miyazaki, the film-maker behind Spirited Away

Lovely piece from the irreplaceable Chris Donlan in the Guardian about Anlife, which has just launched on Steam. It's a sort of ambient creature-watching game powered by procedural animation tech, made famous for the viral clip of Miyazaki meeting the devs:

I continue to maintain that the video game industry and game design in general are fundamental concepts to understanding the entire modern era, from social media to politics, and gambling markets are one crucial example of why

any news outlet neglecting video game coverage is neglecting readers

No Games For Genocide The games industry is complicit in genocide. It’s time to divest.

v proud to say our team at All Will Rise has officially signed up to @nogamesforgenocide.com -- in solidarity with BDS we will NOT be publishing our game on Xbox unless and until Microsoft end their complicity in Israel's genocide. You can read more about it and pledge here nogamesforgenocide.com

prediction markets + predatory gamification will be the future of game design unless we refuse it and sabotage it. it should be socially shameful to use our game design skills to these exploitative ends

genuinely delighted to see the games press taking on areas like prediction markets + gambling + gamification, which are tumorous outgrowths of game design & should be subject to rigorous, knowledgeable critique and *derision* within the games community

🟑 Islamic Jihad deputy secretary-general Mohammed al-Hindi said Israel’s approach with aid and reconstruction is β€œblackmail and procrastination,” noting that over 4 months into a so-called β€œceasefire,” there have been β€œno crossings, no relief, no caravans, no tents β€” nothing.”

He referenced that 37 major international NGOs like MSF, Oxfam, and Norwegian Refugee Council, are being blocked from providing humanitarian assistance in Gaza.

Al-Hindi’s remarks last night come as heavy rain and a low-pressure system collapsed and flooded hundreds of tents sheltering displaced families across Gaza during the first major storm of Ramadan.

➀ Civil defense in Khan Younis said crews rescued families after distress calls when tents fell. 

➀ UNRWA warned nearly two-thirds of Gaza’s population now lives in tents offering little protection, amid severe shortages of food, water and medicine.

➀ Palestinian NGO Network head Amjad al-Shawa said no mobile homes (caravans) have entered Gaza since the β€œceasefire” was signed despite urgent need.

➀ πŸŽ₯ Video: In eastern Al-Zaytoun, children stand amid the rubble holding handwritten signs that read, β€œWe are not numbers in news reports,” β€œLet us live,” and β€œStop the war.” Behind them, men gather among shattered buildings as speakers, including the Gaza Civil Defense spokesman, call for urgent humanitarian intervention. The neighborhood in southeast Gaza City continues to face bombardment and destruction, while families struggle without the most basic necessities for survival.
