GLAAD Gaming Spotlight: Michel Koch and Nina Freeman Talk Queer Storytelling, Teenage Cringe, and Learning to Let Go in ‘Lost Records: Bloom and Rage’ | GLAAD In celebration of DON’T NOD’s expertise in crafting queer stories, Lost Records: Bloom and Rage received the award for Outstanding Video Game at the 37th GLAAD Media Awards.

DON’T NOD Montréal's 'Lost Records: Bloom and Rage' recently received the GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Video Game. We interviewed narrative designer Nina Freeman and studio creative director Michel Koch to see how this touching adventure came to life.

A cartoon by Ron Cobb (1975), showing a shadow of US B-52 bomber above cratered landscape. Two people who look like Vietnamese peasants look up; one says “they’re having problems with their economy again.”

This is from 1975.

Ben Ryan tweet saying: “The persistent and widespread claim that youth with gender dysphoria are at an extremely high risk of suicide absent cross-sex hormones is not based in evidence. See: mentalhealth.bmj.com/content...”

Hey, @benryanwriter.bsky.social - I pointed out the glaring error in this analysis.

NO SUICIDE PREVENTION PROTOCOL FOR TEENS IS STUDIED AGAINST COMPLETED SUICIDES!

***Taps the sign.

What's remarkable is how they cast widely prescribed drugs, available in much of the world without a prescription as "potent, experimental medications." News outlets regularly report cis people taking them without issue. It's pure fear mongering.

a NIER collab?

I didn't really need much of a push I guess. Anyone need a dps or tank?

A black rectangle with white text: "Opt Out" Is A Trap, arinndembo.substack.com

My latest on Substack--on Grammerly's latest "feature" and the rights it violates.

"Opt Out" is a Trap: Big Tech has invented a machine to commit crimes against creative people. We shouldn't have to "opt out" of being its victims.

A broken, blue heart

With a broken Blue Bomber heart, I am no longer the voice of Mega Man.

I was asked to return for Mega Man: Dual Override, but only on the condition I work without the protections of a union contract.

Looks like he brought himself a bag lunch.

Smart.

This is the most blasé admission of a war crime by a US president in history.

Trump has just disclosed, without prompting, that the US Military committed a war crime - literally just to brag & make his Republican audience laugh about unnecessarily killing 100+ Iranians instead of capturing them.

As GDC week starts, I urge people in positions to help others to do so. Last year we had an incident at a bar and had management step in. Sometimes people being targeted are afraid to speak up, but if they do, support them. Get the perp booted. Don’t like guys like this get away with it again.

This industry is a fucking slaughterhouse that destroys art and human creativity

As I've mentioned before: if Hasbro releases a Harry Potter MTG:A set you take a break from MtG:A until it's no longer the new set. Get none of the cards. Not even with the free in-game currency. Make it actively lose them daily log-ins.

cannot stress enough that "separate the art from the artist" was meant for private individuals reconciling the art they love with its flawed creators and not meant for the ceo of a company driving a dump truck of money up to a bigot's front porch

How Pixar’s Open Sexism Ruined My Dream Job (Guest Column) A former Pixar employee writes that after John Lasseter's departure, the company still has a lot of work to do to fix its sexist culture.

If you're wondering how bad things were at Pixar for women, the answer is pretty horrifyingly bad.

the idea that Gavin Newsom could be anyone's preferred 2028 candidate in 2020-goddamn-6 is criminal. it's a criminally stupid thing to think. you should go to jail for thinking it. and yet,

It's genuinely insulting that nearly every response to "Gavin Newsom for Democratic nominee for President is a bright red line we won't cross" with so many goddamn years to go is "fuck you, it's too hard to pick another candidate"

people are really sleeping on what an ally barney is
