How did Insomniac make Marvel’s Wolverine more accessible? I spoke with Michele Zorrilla and Sam Schaffel from @insomniac.games about high-contrast shaders, traversal assist, combat cues, violence settings, and the research behind it all. Watch: youtu.be/hPvcpzUBCVU

Well, I finally took my own advice about building accessibility in from the beginning. Rebind Studios is officially underway. I’m excited to help teams solve hard accessibility and production problems and, eventually, to make some games of our own. www.rebindstudios.com

Sad day for my Google Pixel. It's no longer allowing me to use the local assistant, and is forcing me to switch to Gemini. Really disappointed that I can't use voice commands anymore! I guess I'll need to switch to a different phone model now. 😞 Anyone have suggestions for non-LLM assistants?

...How long does this thing take?? #AlienIsolation2
against a scuffed up gray paneled wall, a chunky cassette styled Emergency Phone is mounted at eye level. large buttons and thick cabling adorn it, and it perfectly mimics the same items from the Alien franchise. I am standing with one hand gripping its edge, and my other hand inserting an imaginary key card into the slot, while worriedly looking over my shoulder.

Reminder that today a new game jam by the Games for Blind Gamers community starts: the Making Games Accessible game jam! Read more about it in our announcement post from last month: caniplaythat.com/2026/06/02/g...
Making Games Accessible" is written over the sky and a calm ocean, arriving to the shore of a beach lighted by the morning sun. A sandcastle was built on the sand to the right. On the left and freshened under a beach umbrella's shadow, a harnessed guide dog lays on a striped towel, along with a folded white cane and a laptop open on a coding program. On the bottom right, the Games for Blind Gamers logo.

New Jennissary cosmetics DLC just dropped! 🥰 This is my first-ever tattoo! I've known I wanted to get my snake tattooed on me for a while. So here she is, wrapped around California wildflowers! ❤️
A collage of three photos show a grayscale tattoo on my left arm. Along the outer forearm, a twisting snake is wrapped around small clusters of flowers with small blooms. One cluster includes poppies, and the other is milkweed. The snake's head points toward my hand, and almost touches my wrist bone. The head shape is rounded with eyes slightly bugging out on either side, and a tiny forked tongue flicking out. The snake's body grows thicker as it wraps under my elbow, then around the outer side of my upper arm, terminating in a short tail near my bicep. The snake has a splotchy pale pattern along its mostly black body. A close up of the snake's head showing it's rounded python shape, and the little tongue.
