Are you a cis man feeling disgusted at the news? Good. Use that. Talk to your fellow men about what you're going to do to make our industry and our world safer. And then actually do it. You may lose friends or opportunities, but a better and safer industry and world starts with you.

My favorite video game easter egg I've ever written: In Hello Cruel World the villain traps you in a room with no exit, and says to you "Don't take *too* long to decide. The human body dies of dehydration in three days." If you leave the game on for 3 days she has a special voice line and you die.

I was a Lead Writer at NSS from 2024-early 2025. There's so much I wish I could say, but all I'll say is this: the rank-and-file IC Nightschoolers were some of the most creative, passionate, innovative people I've ever had the pleasure of working with. Hire them. You won't be disappointed.

Putting aside the questionable word choice, I get why this is an appealing idea, especially to small business owners, but it's not what happens under capitalism. The overall direction is always towards further concentration + monopoly, because that's the most profitable strategy for capital.

Screenshot from an Aftermath article. The title is "Balkanize The Video Game Industry" Under the title is the following quote: "I want this industry to just shatter into a million beautiful shards that all have their own heroes, their own things, their own structures, their own funding methods"
