I'm all for restorative justice but forgive me if after sleeping on I don't exactly think Geller has really learned to respect consent when he knows damn well he never would have gotten where he did if he was honest and forthcoming about the skeletons in his closet, so he actively avoided it

And damn, I would believe the author is not consciously trying to soften the public image of a rapist, but putting all the hd smiling, sweater-wearing pictures of him all over the article sure makes it seem that way!

What percentage of the story we have today might be all we ever get, or it might be just the beginning. You have to wait and see how this unfolds and what the consequences for Geller actually even are before you start waffling about whether he deserves more sympathy!

Refunding everyone and halting sales of another project will no doubt be a massive financial hit to LiC (an indie company!!), which makes it all the more admirable that they're doing this.

Friendships between men are often quiet. In Big Walk, silent communication just isn't enough — that is, unless you're doing a puzzle where communicating with your body is the only option. New from @daytenrose.bsky.social here:

I cannot emphasize enough that financially supporting Mothership is legitimate praxis. You are funding a games site that is doing it right. They’re supporting women, queer folks, writers from all kinds of diverse backgrounds, and they’re doing it with strong professional ethics.

Sometimes in life you have to realise that the past cannot be changed and that people will remember it no matter who you are now. That is not a moral failing. It is the linear passage of time. Endeavouring to be better is the minimum; do not act like you can change what was and what forever is.

I think it’s good not just to have many, many inspirations but not to value any of them above yourself. Even if you are just starting at something you have as much worth as an expert and putting them above yourself can be a form of self betrayal too.

They willingly gave up spots on camera for others. They used their clout internally to push for women in particular to be on camera next to them, benefitting from their notoriety. They rightfully bullied the shit out of people who said nasty, bigoted things in the comments. (3/x)

you are error, our podcast that debunks gaming’s greatest misconceptions, is back!

Welcome back to You Are Error, Aftermath’s podcast about gaming’s greatest misconceptions. For those just joining us, I originally launched this show more than a year ago, inspired by podcasts like You’re Wrong About, Maintenance Phase, and If Books Could Kill. My goal was (and still is) to demystify often-misunderstood elements of video games, whether that means history and culture, the development process, or real-world inspirations that shape what games are about. Previous episodes have covered Arabic, Twitch, horses, and the myth of the solo indie dev, and future episodes will dig into everything from Steam to arms manufacturers to marine biology.
Unfortunately, not long after I launched You Are Error, the daily responsibilities of journalism, another podcast, and running a worker-owned business piled up, and something had to give. That thing ended up being this show. But thanks to Aftermath subscribers and the resources they’ve provided—for example, money to pay our podcast partners, Multitude, for slick video and editing—I’ve been able to revive the show with a more manageable schedule and long-term plan for guests. In short, we’ve never been more back.
That in mind, I figured we should re-begin on a fitting note: the disastrous conclusion of what was, up to a certain point in the 80s, the video game industry. I didn’t just pick this topic because I thought it’d be funny, though; the video game industry now once again finds itself in a period of existential turmoil, with AI, layoffs, studio closures, and an endless barrage of competing media threatening to crash the traditional games industry as we know it—or at least transform it into something unrecognizable.

There's so much cool stuff like this... In Czechoslovakia they were making games as diaries of political protests! If there's any dispute that games are a medium for art & self-expression, it's because most of that vanishes when you reduce the medium's history to a list of products & release dates.
