I finally lost my shit about so-called AIs, LLMs, enshittification & everything fucking evil that @officialgrammarly.bsky.social is doing. I'm fucking furious, and not just about what 1 company has done. An open letter to Grammarly & the rest of the LLM hype machine www.moryan.com/an-open-lett...
I want to introduce you all to something myself and @jacksonwryan.com have been working on.
A PRINT MAGAZINE about video games and video game culture.
We know things have been bad for games writing recently. We're asking, "do you want to Continue?"
www.kickstarter.com/projects/con...
We want to build a platform for existing and emerging writers and illustrators to do their absolute best work. We want to create THE best possible magazine. We already have incredible people lined up. But we want you to get involved too.
WILL YOU CONTINUE?!!
I hit the text limit on making a post. But as GDC arrives in SF again, I want to put this one out there, so it is in screenshot format.
I no longer live in SF but I'll be up Wed and Thursday to see people. Cheers!

AC show from @thetiberiansons.bsky.social featuring Videri String Quartet, @thegamebrass.com, @dompalombimusic.bsky.social and MANY others is now live!
Strap in. It's a full 1.5 hour cinematic masterpiece.
It's (almost) time.
Tony has been cranking on this since Magfest. The mix is outstanding, the edit captures all the energy.
Even if you were in the room, it will knock your socks off.
Typoing "Chat GPT" to "Chat CPT" is pretty silly when the G is not that close to the C. But hey you know that a human wrote this post! Happy to provide that authenticity. 💪
Boycott Open AI is trending right now because of the gov deal. But Anthropic powers Palantir who powers ICE. Grok is Musk, Copilot is Chat CPT, Meta is Zuck, Gemini is Google, Deepseek is china. It's ALL BAD, folks.
You want to boycott? Stop using all of it. Disconnect. Make a real difference.
Me after being forced into an all nighter on a project thats been a nightmare for 2 months of mostly 12 hour days before this:
living in the 2020’s
I'm so fucking sick of my country.
Fuck you Trump. Fuck you anyone who supports this.
WE USED TO HAVE RULES FOR THIS SHIT.
WHERE ARE THEY??
Arkadian set online for you to rock out with 🤘
The best part is that he actually had a child now
can't imagine the horrible upbringing that kid will get.

This psycho is trying to sell people on the idea that humans are actually worthless to justify the cost of the needed data centers. This is the guy we're handing the keys to out future to? Everyone cool with that? You guys still love your chat GPT?
Painting of Link with a million little gadgets and weapons from across the games. I worked harder on this in a 5 week period than any other thing I’ve ever painted. I think I almost died working on this lol
Happy Zelda 40th anniversary!

Tony Dickinson is still hard at work on the AC live magfest video, but him and @thetiberiansons.bsky.social guys put together this in the interim.
Tomorrow is a National shutdown and there are bound to be protests. I didn't have time to get this printed, but if I were to bring a sign, it would be this.
Fuck ICE.
End them.

This hasn't been making the rounds much, but if you can, don't work or shop on Friday:

Minneapolis did this not long ago at a local level, which is where all the massive protest footage you saw, was from. Doing it country wide is the next important step.
Twin Cities Workers Strike Against ICE. Two Hundred Cities Follow!! As workers in two hundred and fifteen cities prepare to walk out today in solidarity with Minneapolis, the whole world is watching.

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.
every single successful general strike in US history has had union backing through the local AFL-CIO
this is the first time it’s been called for since the 1940s
Hey Internet! I and a handful of others were laid off today, so I'll be looking for whatever animation work exists out there. I've got 20+ years of experience, so hit me up if you need that on your teams!

Also other people were impacted. Can provide many roles!
Magfest approaches again, here is what I'm up to this year:
It's gonna be a wild time!
2025 was quite a year for me- But despite it all I was viciously productive- to the point of overkill.
A day job in animation that has become *extremely* unfulfilling for a variety of reasons, and between that, Trump's nonsense, and AI all over, I constantly threw myself at projects. What a year!
You will be missed! these screenshots do NOT do justice the craziness that will happen
man, fuck AI
fuck AI for making us distrust everything
fuck AI for giving us worse services at higher prices
fuck AI for using our water sources
fuck AI for taking our jobs
microtransactions. Full stop.
