shot in the dark but do I know anybody on here who is an expert in social media marketing? writing about a particular kind of social media promotion and curious to see if it's a common practice/how it's viewed among industry professionals.

These have been the craziest/funniest two games to open a season I can remember. Must watch TV.

This sucks for many reasons. But I think it's worth emphasizing how selfish and duplicitous it is to go work with a public-facing, community-focused media org like MinnMax without disclosing this part of your past to them. (MinnMax confirmed to me they were not told.) Please support them if you can

Yeah, it’s more resolution than performance. I touch on that in the video, but it feels fine on Switch 2, but seems to be running at like 540pish.

I know this is being done with good intentions so I say it with all love: Dudes, when women are expressing fear and disappointment over a predator who was by all outward appearances safe and kind, that’s not the time to, how should I put this, humble-boast about how *you’re* one of the safe ones. ⬇️

Each of us matter because of the individual and unique experiences we’ve lived that make us who we are. You can’t be alive if you haven’t lived.

But, process *is* the point. Art has value because of the time, attention, and personal experience the artist put into it. Products reach high quality and usefulness because of the strong process of iterating on design and responding to consumer demand.

Aidan Moher @aidanmoher.com · 17h

The adoption of AI strikes me as the result of late stage capitalism’s emphasis on product over process. Just as AI emphasizes creating something quickly with little regard to use or quality, vulture capitalism is only concerned with how quickly it can extract cash, with no regard for process.

jess is right! it’s worse than ever for women in this field, and it was still pretty bad at our peak. im one of the lucky freelancers who has regular work (probably work more than i did at polygon!), and it’s still not a livable amount of pay. it’s pushing important and skilled women out.
