I can't believe I misspelled the name. Neagley. Neagley was very good.

Mamdani is 100% right here, despite some people reading into this things that are not said here. Antisemitism is a scourge upon the world. Doesn't need any qualification or quantification or caveats or what-abouts. Any antisemitism is too much antisemitism.

Neigley was genuinely just very good. Not too much Reacher, but very Reacher, but not Reacher, but enough Reacher-y.

Folks, I'm happy to announce my next game will use up all water, destroy humanity in a global blaze, & lose $8 billion weekly. IPO starts at a 20 gazillion euros valuation based on me counting the amount of zeroes wrong. Upon checking the prototype I realized bigger number is better. Supersentience.

Nowadays really feels like mom's old history study books about kings & peasants, where kings would do the most greedy evil stuff and peasants would just take it until they didn't & they'd murder the king. But our kings run Twitter or Facebook or something so they can analyse when we fart wrong.

Professional scouts and developers can extrapolate but there's a big difference between "extrapolate based on assets" (ie. target renders, video, mood boards, prototypes) versus "extrapolate based on words". Even the developers of a game itself can't do "extrapolate based on words" very well.

The only way I will have any interest in this is if they start the film with Finn waking up, having dreamt the entirety of Rise of Skywalker, and picking back up at the end of The Last Jedi. At breakfast, he laughs with Poe & Rey about the silly dream logic of the Emperor returning somehow.

Was looking at the Silent Hill Townfall concept art and my jaw dropped. Was back in my hometown tonight so I had to go and take a photo. There are many ways to mock my beloved Coatbridge, but “your home’s so miserable it was used as concept art for a Silent Hill game” is a new one for me

All the repeat-idea devs are chasing down sorting inventory or finding a needle in a haystack, yet the big indie release this week is a femme-coded cozy game that's (shocking!) an original idea

It's not a false equivalence: he was given two options - let billionaires weaponize his fans in favor of surpressing opposition to genocide, or support those opposing genocide. There is not a single moral framework in which "oppose genocide" should lose this comparison.

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, working at a desk. A brain next to her says, "We need to take breaks!"
The second panel zooms in on Sarah's face. She is annoyed. She says, "What if I don't listen to you?"
The third panel shows the brain smiling.
The fourth panel shows the brain reaching towards a lever. The brain says, "I'LL MAKE YOU."

What a weird way to admit that you've surrounded yourself with exclusively sycophants that would freak out about your clothes but not about y'all shared complicity in destroying all life and peace and freedom on Earth in pursuit of more money, Mark.

YouTube, TikTok and Meta have all turned down the trailer for the Oct. 9 doc, citing “political” content. X won't even take Bleecker Street's calls. The distributor is appealing.

What we do know for a fact is that he doesn't object to silencing opposition to genocide, and thus supporting genocide, if it does affect him - because he was put on the spot and he made a very clear choice. No inference is needed, it was a binary choice.

Rami Ismail (رامي) @ramiismail.com · 26/09/2026
There's plenty reasons one might vote Corbyn. Being anti-Brexit, traditionally voting Labour, or you just want to vote for the opposition. The only inference on Palestine-Israel you can make for "voting Corbyn" is that he doesn't oppose opposing genocide as long as it doesn't affect him.

Rami Ismail (رامي) @ramiismail.com · 26/09/2026
Neither of those suggest he's "not a fan of Israel". What suggests that he's "OK with Israel doing genocide" is accepting that a billionaire made him choose between letting a billionaire use his fans against him and literally opposing genocide, and he picked fans.

Rami Ismail (رامي) @ramiismail.com · 25/09/2026
It's a very simple situation, though. If a billionaire makes you choose between supporting a genocide or not playing, communicate that the billionaire is at fault to your fans.

Everything and everyone thinks Ed Sheeran's complicity to genocide is an embarrassment, now down to the weather itself. Even funnier is that the billionaire that pushed him into this situation still cancelled his shows. Pathetic. www.cnn.com/2026/09/25/e...

Jennifer Hale once told me Canadians need to champion ourselves more. I wholeheartedly agree. Over the past few months, I reached out to dozens of Canadian devs to learn their favourite Canadian games. Their varied responses offer a wonderful spotlight on some of the incredible talent we have here.🍁

These are must-play Canadian games, according to Canadian devs
As Canadians, we don't champion ourselves enough, so we asked dozens of game developers to do just that.

Well, this was interesting. It's a little scary how much you can infer about someone from just scrolling through a users Spotify - imagine what Spotify can do with all that much more complete, digitally accessible data. Imagine what any of these companies can do with our data.

I mean, so lets put this together: this person is likely German (or German-speaking), a nerd, parent or uncle, likely my age or older given the music selection, visited Central America, has a sudden interest in Latin American music, & despite listening to loud racists is now researching anti-racism.

- The Liked Songs list is 65 tracks, but includes no Latin American music until it suddenly focuses on lot of Latin American music. - Oh no - their politics: Bill Maher, Jordan B. Peterson, Joe Rogan, etc. Likely male? - But also, EXIT RACISM, a well-known German anti-racism book, as audio book.

- Wintergatan's Marble Machine is in Liked. Also Cowboy Bebop. "Otaku 2AM" playlist. Yup. - Maybe a light gamer? I see hit games, both indie and AAA. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, The Legend of Zelda: Epic Collection, but also @lena.fyi i Celeste OST, and @awintory.bsky.social Journey soundtrack.
