Labor claims Victoria’s new datacentre rules are strongest in Australia but critics point to ‘huge loophole’

Here’s the thing and I’m gonna tell you: a lot of fans are why so many creators just don’t want to create anymore. And so many of them are oddly proud of their ability to bully. In order for cartoons as a concept to survive, they need to knock that shit off.

A lot of people come into the games industry and pretty soon develop a cynical attitude that the industry is largely run by business guys who don't know a thing about video games. It's only after a few years and some seniority that you realize that those guys don't know shit about business either.

It's nice having time off work, even if I struggle with less structured days. That doesn't mean I need work to structure my life around, I just need time to learn my own cadence. Unfortunately it always feels like I'm just getting into the swing of things when it's time to go back to work...
