When something’s wrong, and you *know* it’s wrong, and you quietly go along with the wrongness anyway, it eats a little piece of your soul. At best, you end up second guessing about what you should have said and beating yourself up for being a coward. At BEST.

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

For the umpteenth time: do not attack people for having an unusually shaped body, comment on the objectively evil things they do and say. This isn't hard! Being shitty about bodies/appearance while disabled people are vilified for being seen in public feeds into ableist rhetoric.

I recorded my roles in Nighthawks about 3 years ago- I’m not currently working with @wadjeteyegames.com but because I am “Wadjacent” I sometimes get messages like this:

An image of a text discussion in Facebook Messenger. It reads:
Dave: Walking past Janet’s desk while she is testing nighthawks and just heard your voice say “Have fun partying with the vagina spiders.”
How can you not be a fan after that
Sally: only accent aficionados will know how hard it is to do an American accent on those two words.
Dave: When you need someone to say “vagina spiders” you call a professional.

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."

When I say Nighthawks is *witty* I mean it’s a game without any AI, that’s been occasionally accused of using AI art, but it also contains in-world articles apologising for AI disinformation about the vampires.

There's a character in Nighthawks that is the most evil character in Wadjet Eye history. She is just the literal worst. I needed someone I could trust to handle it with the deftness it required, so I gave it to Sally. I won't spoil anything, but you aren't prepared.

I guarantee the three of clubs was not a random writing choice - it's a specific reference, and a good one at that. I appreciate this level of care. (This is Nighthawks, from @wadjeteyegames.com. I think the words are @richardcobbett.bsky.social's.)

Screenshot from Nighthawks: an illustration and dialogue appear on screen. A gorgeous white-haired vampire is pictured, the very picture of feminine goth beauty. The dialogue states:

The Assistant

Since a dev shared his game concept last month, Steam has been flooded with vibe-coded slop clones. This is what "democratising creativity" actually looks like. Even with AI, your ideas are worthless as long as they can be plagiarised at scale. Gen AI was designed for plagiarism, NOT creativity.

Having a developer/writer start scribbling on a nearby envelope because your acting unlocked a hidden layer of creativity is a great feeling. The creative payoff of collaboration! Also casting early and writing FOR an excellent, creative VA, even without knowing specifics, can be really inspiring.

What a fucking world where I find myself writing letters like this to my MP.

Letter to my MP:

Dear Fleur Anderson,

I am writing regarding the shocking scenes of masked far-right thugs blocking ports in Dover and, somehow more shockingly, forcing a Portsmouth RNLI station to close.

These scenes are horrific. Equally horrific is the rhetoric from some MPs and the press that these people have "reasonable concerns".

Just Stop Oil protestors have been swiftly stopped and arrested. The crux of their campaign is to ensure that the planet remains in a condition that is livable for humans. The existential threat of climate change is one of the most reasonable concerns one can imagine. Yet they were arrested and decried in the press.

Protestors opposing the genocide in Gaza have been equally swiftly arrested, with some even being proscribed as terrorist organisations. For opposing an ongoing genocide that has killed over 69,000 people - including 17,000 children - according to The British Red Cross. Stopping this appalling violence is another incredibly reasonable concern. Yet they are arrested and decried in the press, while others are proscribed as terrorists.

Preventing saving the lives of desperate people fleeing unsafe conditions is in no way a reasonable concern, yet MPs and the press talk about these masked thugs, preventing lives from being saved and swarming areas of key infrastructure, as having reasonable concerns. This is a shocking stain on this country.

Continued in next image

$Letter continues: Migration is a net good for the country, even before you take into account the ageing workforce. The anti-migrant rhetoric comes from dangerous and violent men, and is spurred on by a press that thrives on outrage. All human lives have equal value. Anyone preventing a lifeboat station - a lifeboat station! - from operating and saving human lives should be arrested and charged far more quickly than an elderly vicar sitting quietly and holding a sign. I urge you to use your power as an MP to speak out on this. To call these balaclava-wearing men what they are: violent, masked thugs who speak only for a tiny, hateful minority. These are not reasonable concerns of patriots. These are the words and deeds of vicious people who want to fracture this country. By way of reply, please confirm that you will raise this issue in parliament, and use your power to speak out against this disturbing rise of fascist violence. Yours sincerely, Guy Kelly$
