Liverpool FC played their first ever game on 1 September 1892, beating Rotherham Town 7-1 in a friendly at Anfield. Tom Wyllie scored a hat-trick, a sign of things to come - Tom went on to score 15 goals in 25 official games that season, including another hat-trick against Newtown in the FA Cup.

Dolly Parton did all the good she could, for all the people she could, for as long as ever she could. From her legendary songwriting to the Imagination Library—which sent 1 million books a month to children across the country—she was the best of America. Dolly, we'll miss your great heart.

Turbo Button | Floor Plan: Slap Out Of It! @turbobuttoninc.bsky.social · 29/07/2026

We shared some of our reasoning for keeping generative AI out of our creative process with @aftermath.site. Respecting our players' time and attention is at the core of everything we do. If something isn't worth our time to make, it's not worth our players' time to engage with it.

“We don't use generative AI for art, audio, code, or anything else. We've been pretty outspoken about our stance, like with the 200 pins we gave away at GDC this year or our studio Christmas cards where we paid artists to draw what they thought AI-generated cards from us would have looked like.

We have spent time evaluating/experimenting with tools so we feel informed and understand what they can do, but that just gives us more confidence about not using them in any part of our production or preproduction processes for any of our projects. Among our reasons:

We care a ton about respecting our players' time and attention, so if something isn't worth our time to make, it's not worth our players' time to look at.

It's pretty important to have friction with iteration in creative processes. When ideas are cheap to try, they're challenged and vetted less before the implementation. That's going to lead to a lot of games fully realizing some half-baked ideas. We don't want to be the studio that tries to figure out that process.

Even the cases where gen AI quality might be good enough, it is not worth the toxic association. Our players are very clear that they don't want it.

We worked in VR for a decade. We've seen what happens when people make plans and change all their processes based on potential instead of focusing on the present. It usually doesn't work out.”

That thing Jurgen said about the journalists at his press conference. We can all do stuff like that. Stuff like only dealing with companies with phone numbers or refusing to update ad preferences. We can unsubscribe from stuff. We don’t have to be spoonfed. We can call the shots.

if the rules applied to Russia applied to the US, we shouldn’t be hosting the World Cup at all. and then they didn’t move the Iran games into Mexico / Canada. now the US is doing this? are they gonna block them from entering the country when the time comes? and what about Iranian fans?? farcical.

Heartbreaking. And a wake-up call. It is no longer about being difficult to find a way to sustain yourself through your work online. It is no longer sustainable to keep a website up now. Axel has done so much for the web and all of us. Buy one of his books if you can. We've learned so much from him.

2ality blog: temporarily offline

Dear visitor! Two things happened recently:

- The income from my book sales went from being enough for me to live off (2024) to zero (2026).
- The traffic to my blog and my books (which were free to read online) increased beyond what I can currently afford. Virtually all of it comes from AI crawlers, so there is no ad income.

Therefore, I’m taking my blog and my books offline so that I can decide what to do next – especially w.r.t. AI companies stealing my work. This may take a while (think months): I don’t have any energy to deal with this right now.

I apologize for this (hopefully temporary) inconvenience to my human readers! You can still buy my books at Payhip.
