any studio that does not want to face the woke 2.0 wrath of god-emperor president alexandria ocasio-cortez will have to pay fealty to her by setting up an office in new york city

some game companies rly are like “we love and value diversity” and then set the onsite job to be in a city that is not diverse 😭

can i be controversial for a second and say that i like leda “fire emblem” cohendia. her story so far is a great depiction of how messy survivor’s guilt can be. i think sirroco means well but is not the right person to sympathize with how she feels about cydonia. sometimes being right isn’t enough.

china wants what we have in this specific area and we're just setting it on fire. like entertainment is one of the areas where we are genuinely actually unquestionably great so of course that has to go away.

other countries want an entertainment industry because they also found out that blue collar industries don’t make a lot of money!!!!!!!

anyone can post but the real big men are the ones doing unseen, unglamorous work to build power for working people. and the more someone posts the less time they have to do that kind of work.

i agree bsky moderation is cowardly and bad but the guy who got booted from the platform also blogged about how great it was that i got laid off so. i can’t be too upset about it.

my most scalding queer take is that our community would have a lot less cursed discourse if we were less financially insecure and barred from public life. every single employed trans person i know is *so* normal about people using gender terms they don’t for themselves.

in many ways going back to an old game project is like being an amnesiac murderer and coming back to the crime scene and trying to piece together the deeply sick individual who could have possibly done this

being transmasc sucks bad sometimes like dang the queer community is where u belong but it feels like everyone in there hates what u wanna be. and u still want it even if it’s not polished like river stones? and what u want is not gentle or particularly edible.

really hope some reporter figures out wtf happened but this is why we need strong journalist unions and a solid firewall between editorial and corporate. it’s not just about pay bands, but whether reporting is ethical.

sisi jiang @six6jiang.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
journalists will keep a copy of the recording for legal purposes, only be produced if the outlet is sued in court. 99.99% of articles don’t go to court so this is more a legal boilerplate practice than anything. the idea of corporate even getting to touch the files before then is so foreign to me.
180
sisi jiang @six6jiang.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
as a former journalist who used sensitive recordings in the past (and never let the files travel past my individual work account) this sounds like extreme malpractice. it casts broader harm on even ethical reporters who already struggle to get sources to agree to be on the record.
