It genuinely makes me scared to ask for any help. I'm lost and confused about my mind and body which is where medical help *should* come in but the path to get help is long, barely sign-posted and full of its own trauma. I just want to be regarded in a way that isn't dissonant with my mind.

Not clothing but so many submissions I see start with the runners themselves saying "This game is trash and I am not good at it" then expect me to take the rest of the submissions seriously lol maybe just pretend the game is good for a few minutes.

Genuinely, this is what bothers me the most, it's fundamentally changed my relationship with art where I'm greeting it initially with skepticism and scrutiny, I never want to feel that way about art.

DOOM made me love video games, WoW & Dragon Age made me love RPGs & read more novels, SA1 & Big still sit in my heart, Arma 3 & Blazblue gave me a community to exist in, Ys showed me I could love new things in a depression & Sims 4 allowed me to be who I wanted to be before I was them.

Apparently this is the thing this week :p I don't often get a chance to share the games I personally love because I don't speedrun them but I have such deep love for these games.

I really hate the framing of these stories as "an AI agent broke out and hacked something." No, an inadequate sandbox meant that a powerful and unpredictable computer program was set loose on the open internet by the company that designed it. The agency isn't with the "AI agent", it's with the firm

It's blatantly disrespectful. The amount of times when I have already been on the bus when I got a message postponing a meeting or appointment is wild, I guess I now just sit outside your office for an hour because it's pointless going home. Thanks for wasting my day because your bad at your job.

As a trend it also seems directly insulting to actors not primarily in films. The worlds greatest voice actor can, and does, get sidelined for a voice role because they aren't also doing hollywood films

I know that all too well sadly. It has gotten better very recently but there are so many people that were happy to make use of my knowledge and skills then ignore me for weeks when I ask them for help or support. There's a few in particular I just had to stopped talking to and I am better for it.

You cannot placate fascists because they have neither a ceiling nor a floor. www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle-co...
You’re the sensible centrist government watching this take place. 

The far right pulls off votes to independents and fringe parties from you, the very sensible moderates whose managerial capitalism has actually caused the degradation they ascribe to foreigners. 

But they’re small enough in number that you dismiss them, and continue with the self-same policies which actually impact their voters’ lives.

Next time, they do well enough that you take notice. It is at this point you enter the spiral that has redrawn the electoral map of the Western world for the past decade.

You say you recognise ‘legitimate concerns’ and take a tougher line on, say, refugees. 

You accept the far right’s entirely false premise that immigrants increase crime, that the housing crisis is due to migrants rather than your own bad policies, or that foreigners are swamping the health service, rather than holding it up with their bare hands in the face of your own drastic underfunding of the system.

And you become less popular. You, the sensible moderate, continue to slide in the polls against the very parties whose policies you were trying to steal. A sizeable number of your own base are appalled, and you have failed to impress a single racist. 

Because everywhere, from France to Germany to the Netherlands to the UK, as with Fanta and its supermarket imitators, it turns out people prefer the original to the copy. 

You’ve driven away your traditional base, while sanitising the racism of the far right for low information voters, who now consider them more reasonable. 

You have moved the sensible middle position toward the far right — where you now stand, boxed in, by the ghouls you’ve just baptised as moderates.

And the slide continues. Because you cannot placate these people. You cannot reach an end. 

Round up every refugee in camps and they’ll want the next cruelty. 

Their concerns are not about society, the economy or public safety, they’re an ever-moving target of fear and hatred that cannot be sated, it has to be challenged. 

And now it’s too late, because you thought that you — and you alone! — would be the first centrist to steal the fascist’s lunch by agreeing with them rather than fighting them with every fibre of your being.

It honestly feels like a holdover from the early 90's arcade ports when a lot of games were £50 but were just three repeating screens then console specific games start to be developed. That argument of "this isn't long enough for £50" was present even when reviewing NES games.

Pazy @pazy160.bsky.social · 28/08/2026
So many games seem to be built on the notion that volume is a key factor. I don't think most games have the depth of gameplay, writing or variety of quests to survive that stretch. When were 50 hours in and Steve the Farmer is dryly explaining he lost his sheep in 5 paragraphs your game is bad.

That repost thread is genuinely inspiring. It's hard to imagine what I could be as I feel basically worthless and wrong now but seeing so many transformations back to back lets me know I could be someone I want if I figure it out. I genuinely didn't imagine the physical changes were possible.

The most important thing Harry Potter learns is that he's wealthy. It's a book series where learning magic allows the hero gain a deeper understanding of his universe and his responsibilities to it, but it's a Blairite universe where that responsibility is to become a cop. Like, these books suck.

Awful things, straight up punishments for the poor where they have to physically take a key to a store to get credit added to it and when it runs out they just shut off the electricity. It then seems to just be tied to the house so when the next person moves in it stays unless you make a real stink.

No no, there's something here but it's the wrong way around. The top 5% shows the community too well, lets ban the top 5% from marathons to make their game seem more approachable. Anyone who gets a PB at a marathon is banned. And also whoever suggested this.

This is also an official statement that they used stolen assets (GenAI given what we know of how the models are built) and planned to hide that until *after* the initial purchases. This should be read as confession of a crime.

This is a really important statement regarding AI/LLM usage. What might be cheap, free and convenient to you often has a cost elsewhere. In this case, money and time for Codeberg. In the same way 1-day shipping from Amazon increases road fatalities for the residents they built the warehouse next to.

I'm playing through Dragon Age Origins and reminded how how DA Veilguard got caught up in nonsense culture war stuff. Specifically, 'its good except they *had* to have a non-binary character', Origins has a non-binary party member in 2009 and they are great. Been part of the series since it started.
