i started a new Hades 2 save and i beat Chronos with a +65% damage-to-me Eris “blessing” lol. i used to be such a button masher, this is cool

And now, a lesson on CEO-ing from Matthew Karch, CEO of Saber Interactive:

this is one of the most ridiculous and unprofessional things I've ever seen and I've been following video games for my entire adult life

I don't know what's more damning, the possibility of some guy with one of the worst cases of CEO brain typing "who is Stella" into Claude because his grey matter is too rotted to remember who he hired or him thinking its a sick own on a former employee to lie about having done that in the press

aaaabsolutely true, what an insane choice who? never heard of her. also here are some specific third-hand details. as demonstrated with my clever AI disclosure strategy, obviously I did not run any of this by HR or legal

so close to the goal! ✨

finally picked up one of these and sometimes having decent o11y is both Better And Worse. 😰 surprised the wildfire smoke is lower impact than I expected, surprised transit is so high, and not enjoying the experience of slowly observing workplace CO2 increase 📈

Hi all, @ingloriousgigi.bsky.social's kid desperately needs our help to keep her out of the prison pipeline. She deserves the break she would get automatically if it were not for the inherent misogynoir in our system.

Very thankful for this letter to Becky Pepper-Jackson (the 16 year-old trans girl SCOTUS ruled against yesterday) from James Dale, a gay man whose expulsion from the Boy Scouts was upheld by the Supreme Court in 2000.

today I went thrift store shopping on behalf of a possibly unhatched baby goth trans egg. 🏳️‍⚧️ 🐣 hoping something helps them feel more like themselves, or at least steers us in any useful direction beyond The Same Hoodie Every Single Day

Reminder that Klingons say TRANS RIGHTS BRING HONOR TO YOUR HOUSE

tried out a neon effect in a colouring book, it’s fun!

hades 2: is athena a mean girl? i’m not done this arc yet but goddess of wisdom what is going ON here lol

Tonight, two of the white nationalists I reported on in this piece showed up to attempt to intimidate me on a private night out at a small music venue. I’ll have more to say tomorrow. I’m safe. They also didn’t pay cover 🖕

There's a "is anyone even reading this" sort of honesty you get in the software update release notes from a project that's been around for a long time.

NEW: The Chinese-language messages that accused non-ABC Vancouver councillors didn't start with Lenny Zhou, who has since apologized for them. They started with the mayor.

ABC Vancouver has ruled that Pete Fry's motion saying that Vancouver opposes ICE agents in Vancouver and asking Ottawa to reject deployment during the World Cup is invalid and cannot be voted on. They say it's because they have assurances from the US that they won't be sending ICE agents.

reached a new phase of burnout! normally I’m always moving, even small. (dancers can’t sit still) this week my body still responded to movement signals, but not as much. my hands let a bowl slip out of them. my feet shuffled. I stumbled. concentrating just to walk. bizarre experience

but if you just want to do some mindless play (or mindful - it’s my birthday but it’s your life) take a little break and just make some pixel art make8bitart.com

we’re all planning on reduced forethought capacity (I can plan about two days ahead lately) and so for an interesting new sensation, you might “enjoy” reading perspective from one year ago ca.news.yahoo.com/ominous-dona...

look, I love my state and its resistance to fascism, but I also know what a beach should be like. #webcomics

so conflicted to know the big picture and still be here bawling with relief. we become haunted whether we want to or not.

they have infinity dollars and like 20k guys stealing children. severe trauma. teargassing toddlers. the cruelty is the point

I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.

For proof, a friend who sat in on that interaction thought it was so batshit he had this made for me

TIL Scott Adams decorated his man cave like a college dorm in his garage with traffic cones and a decorative air compressor

not the same thing but the street dance community absolutely will not drop Chris Brown. loved Kendrick, but didn’t drop Drake. I doubt it will drop Nicki Minaj. you can be in class learning choreo for 30-40min before the instructor first plays the song and, welp

I just want people outside of Minneapolis to watch this and imagine listening to that noise over you literally all the time

my therapist recommended the book Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle by Emily Nagoski & Amelia Nagoski after experiencing stress, YOU MUST DO SOMETHING to tell your body that it is safe, otherwise you’re still soaked in stress juice (sorry for weird alt text on a columned table)

This is the real story.

remember when video game journalists learned that women did not want to talk to them after they proved untrustworthy during GG

I was already broken and then the Liam Ramos thing broke me again. But the other form of broken is to think it’s fine and at least I’m not broken like that.
