I'm Hanna, a creative director / tech artist / writer who has worked on 40+ games, movies, and TV shows. I have a background in interactive fiction, UI, film, programming, VFX, theatre, journalism, and religious cult studies, which is both strangely confluent and difficult to fit in 300 characters.

the arm tap was Sim's signal for the sniper to take the shot

It would be pretty cool to see a dev's voting history, like if I knew a dev didn't want marginalized people to have access to their human rights I probably won't be super into anything they've written maybe if you're scared of your voting history it's time for some-reflection

Quietly throwing out my "I Voted" sticker so I don't get blamed for this

See, this is what I'm focusing on: the vast majority of people didn't want outright bigots in charge. They were just tired of the slow slide into hell. Why they decided to respond by jumping in headfirst, it's hard to know -- but xenophobia and Traditional Family Values weren't the biggest factors

anyway remember to vote

Dishware for the present day, present time ♥️

This is only my second favorite Halloween story after the fishing shop that was putting loose fish hooks in kids' bags, which was in fact just a completely innocent if mystifying miscalculation

Last Halloween a local shop had a giant assortment of candy in wooden buckets by the front counter, without prices or anything because it was bougie like that, and it was so chaotic that all the neighborhood kids just robbed them blind and they were powerless to stop it

Spend the first few moments giving me a taste of how incredibly cool / profound / fun / emotionally devastating this experience is going to be. Then you've bought yourself a tiny bit of time to info dump. Then, overdeliver. Wash rinse repeat.

using it anywhere (yes, even code) is an instant signal to the kind of person you are. the kind of shit you’re willing to sweep under the rug in the name of personal convenience. it’s entirely irrelevant how good AI is at a task

Eagerly refreshing, waiting to see if people voted in favour of asking the question about whether or not they should consider doing something they can't I remember watching the Quebec referendum. It felt... different than this.

FINALLY saw Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma and the best compliment I can give is that it makes me so excited to make art Art is awesome youtu.be/NdrOjjByVMA

Notable LGBTQ2S+ results for Vancouver city council: ✨ Solomon Yi-Kieran is non-binary uses they/them pronouns. ✨ Devyani Singh is queer. ✨ And not for nothing, Sean Orr is regularly seen in a "protect trans kids hat," and I can report he was LOUDLY leading chants at the Trans March this year.

Huge, huge congrats to @lucymaloney.bsky.social, so excited to see what you can accomplish when the rest of the municipal government is actually working WITH you

No malice on the author's part, but I think this article's headline gets the story slightly wrong here. The closing post acknowledges AI has gotten better at decompilation, but the reason for the close is that the AI users are ruining the community's values and space. www.404media.co/video-game-r...

So weird that the "we should end human rights for minorities" party keeps finding bigots, if only we could spot some sort of connection

thank god my light bulbs don't have 64tb of RAM and I don't willingly install malware or I could be in real trouble

We're watching the internet go through another Eternal September, everything being drowned out by vibed and stolen slop. Soon it'll be nearly all noise, no signal. But what do you think we'll call this event? Simply "the Death of the Internet"? The "AIpocalypse"? We need to get this branded.

I might get cancelled for this, but there's no difference between washed and unwashed rice. Same flavour, same texture. I'm sorry it just needed to be said

I like seeing the dev of the SNES core on the Pocket actually telling one of these dudes off. Holy shit.

Parti Québécois finally finds minority it likes

Every portfolio that gets sent to me that has even a whiff of AI (which is like 95% of them at this point), there's a 99% chance that three months ago their art skills mysteriously went from grade-school level to seasoned veteran

good lord this entire thread is making me guffaw like an idiot at my desk

without any doubt:

A big difference I've noticed between graphic design and creating music is that by the time I'm done a design, I inevitably hate it. When I'm making music, from the moment it's like 20% together, I love it, and I just keep loving it more until it's done, and then I keep loving it after

going to sue the sky, because the only acceptable thing to show after a rainstorm is either a provincial or national flag

This bodes GREAT for the upcoming BC election, excellent messaging

lol so you can buy a version of Insomniac's Wolverine that literally censors out any mention of queer people? wokeness has gone too far, everything has to be politically correct these days

Aki Ross, watching Tilly Norwood get interviews as "the first completely digital actor", a mixture of anger, fatigue, and smugness on her face

lol I took the exact same photo. God-tier slide, thanks @writnelson.bsky.social

Hey, kid, you like ice cream? Well fuck you

It's actually a perfect time to call an election, if everyone hates you, but you're still one of the least worst options, and your opponents keep stepping on rakes like it's their day job

!!! EMERGENCY UPDATE !!! Despite our repeated warnings, we have gotten reports that Eliza has broken containment. BetterHelp has already fallen.

Holmes: "My technology is entirely smoke and mirrors." >"Burn her at the stake!" Altman: "Same, but I'm a dude." >"Quick, make this the cornerstone of our economy!" Musk: "Me too, but I'm ALSO a bigoted Nazi." >(weeping openly) "The legends were true, our Lord has returned"

"The First Nation has invoked the 'medicine chest clause' provision from the treaty signed in 1876, which Indigenous Peoples interpret as a promise to provide comprehensive health care. 'All children, including trans and two-spirit children and their family, will have safety under our treaty.'"

There’s such an easy answer to this “gotcha” question and it’s “Sports are inherently unsafe and unfair and it’s ridiculous to single out trans athletes when we allow 150 pound linebackers to go up against 260 pound linemen in freshman football on a daily basis. Let kids play with their friends.”

The funny thing is that this whole theory has been disproven so many times. Oppressed people don't want to oppress; they want to not be oppressed. Just because you're a shitty person who wants to oppress people doesn't mean that anyone else in your position would ever want to do the same.

I can't believe the direction they went was Ocarina of Time UE5 Next Generation Fan Remake

If you want to know what it's like to be autistic, I just had a good cry because I suddenly remembered the ending of Arrival
