‘Don’t go to the US – not with Trump in charge’: the UK tourist with a valid visa detained by ICE for six weeks Karen Newton was in America on the trip of a lifetime when she was shackled, transported and held for weeks on end. With tourism to the US under increasing strain, she says, ‘If it can happen to me, i...

Again, I cannot emphasize enough: do not go to the US even if you're privileged enough to have never been scared or worried of a border crossing in you're life. Do not go ESPECIALLY for something as optional & outrageously expensive as GDC.

Increasingly convinced the main damage cell phones have done to creativity isn't decreased attention spans or what not but the elimination of productive boredom. Inspiration comes from the mind filling the void inside. Hard to make art when you're constantly silencing the silence with "content."

RFK Jr. Took His Grandkids for a Dip in a Sewage-Contaminated Creek For Mother’s Day The National Park Service bans swimming in Rock Creek due to “high levels of bacteria.”

RFK Jr. celebrated on Sunday by taking shirtless selfies and swimming in an E. coli-ridden, sewage-infested creek where swimming, notably, has been banned by the National Park Service, thanks to the whole...poop water issue.

I’ve been thinking about the aesthetics in the I Spy books a TON lately. The fact every page was a handcrafted model is absolutely wild to me.

A glowing wall carving that shows a lantern with a firefly inside surrounded by the constellations big and Little Dipper.

A great detail i noticed in @compulsiongames.bsky.social South of Midnight is that Mahalia — a character who historically helped escaped slaves — is associated with this lantern pattern that also shows the Drinking Gourd/Big Dipper. “Follow the drinking gourd” was railroad code for escaping north.

Okay so: good news and bad news. The good news is I’m *finally* about to sign for full-time work. The bad news is I am very overdrawn and it’ll be a while before I’m paid. If anyone feels like helping me get through this transition period, my CashApp is $sacc and my PayPal is @StellaSacco. Thank you

Commissioned a very talented artist with an art style similar to Yoji Shinkawa (think of the Metal Gear games) for an art piece of myself. I am really impressed with how it turned out!

To see more of his work and maybe commission him yourself check out Alzandah here: @alzandah.bsky.social

“Just calm down and let people enjoy chatgpt.” Sorry, no. I find it creepy that folks are treating a machine that mimics human speech as their friend / therapist. It is feeding you lies. It is destroying your thinking abilities. Shut it off. Talk to other humans. Go outside.

The image shows a text post from a tumble user with the handle "theconcealedweapon" making an argument about the importance of protecting the rights of criminals as a safeguard against government tyranny. The post presents the following key points:

If you want to prevent government tyranny, ensuring criminals have rights must be your top priority
This is not meant as a joke or exaggeration
Without rights for criminals, governments can simply label people as criminals to strip away their rights
The post claims this has been a common tactic of tyrannical governments throughout history
The post concludes that believing people who break laws should forfeit their rights is effectively supporting tyranny

The argument centers on the idea that due process and legal protections for accused/convicted persons are fundamental safeguards against authoritarian government overreach.

no lies detected. #civilrights

@paigeedits.bsky.social and I want to buy folks copies of South of Midnight, especially if you are, or know, someone who doesn’t normally get to see themself reflected in the games they play.

DM one or the other of us if that’s you

Hey folks, just got the news I'll be laid off mid April.

I'll be looking for concept and cinematic storyboarding gigs and anything else in between. I've gotten to do feature ownership, mentoring, some ad work, texture vis dev: generally cool but invisible stuff. Translating 2d to 3d is my jam.
