Big Walk tattoo by the incredible @ameliamooretattoos.bsky.social Got it to commentate the amazing time I had with some of my favorite people @househouse.com
Character from the game big walk, holding a megaphone in their hands above their head and with a block at their feet with two 4 digit numbers representing coordinates.  The character has a purple body and a teal head.  3 other smaller big walk characters are celebrating and running in the background.  The are color blotches behind them all representing the green of the grass and a blue sky

Brought my first Galaxy’s Edge droid, F4-NK, to life in Star Wars: Zero Company. So excited to see him puttering around and adventuring with me

And, Clue. Don’t get me started. Maybe the first movie obsession of my life, the first movie that took over my mind and forced me to virtually memorize it. Curry’s perfection amongst a perfect cast is absolutely unforgettable.

companies are sourcing millions of printed books for AI labs that scan them for training data, then destroy them. printed books are more valuable because they're free of AI slop, and AI labs know destroying them is an "optics problem." www.404media.co/ai-companies...

Among the layoffs was character artist Christiane Meister — a 27-year veteran of Bethesda and (as far as I can tell) one of the longest tenured women in games, period. She worked on Argonians + Khajiit in TES3, horses in TES4 and TES5, Fallout creatures, and more. (cont'd)
Screenshot from the 2006 TES4: Oblivion Making Of documentary, showing Christiane sitting an an old school CRT monitor working on a horse. Her cubical is decorated with action figures and plushies, many of them of Stitch from Lilo and Stitch, but also a fishtank and a poster of TES3 Morrowind. Photo of the TES3 Morrowind developers around 2002. Christiane sits in the middle, one of the few women on the team.

Window into the mocking with which foreign media is treating the situation. The latest on the live of Le Monde, France’s paper of record: “We’re being told Trump wants to file an appeal with Infantino alleging that the Belgian team played soccer.”
“On nous dit dans l’oreillette que Donald Trump souhaite lancer un recours auprès de Gianni Infantino en accusant la sélection belge d’avoir joué au football ce mardi.”

I wrote about the Supreme Court's latest disgusting anti-trans ruling. I wrote about it because I refuse to act like taking away constitutional rights and allowing legal discrimination is okay just because it's happening to people who don't poll well in a diner in Ohio. In @thenation.com

The Supreme Court’s Anti-Trans Ruling Goes Well Beyond Sports
The ruling is about whether trans people have the same rights as everybody else—and the Court said they don’t.

After having seen STAR WARS 500 times as a kid, I remember having my mind blown learning that the entire "the death star is about to blow up the rebel base as its being attacked" beat of the ending was invented in the editing room using outtakes and ADR. variety.com/2026/film/ne...

Mike Pence got totally owned here: Jewish plaintiffs won a ruling against Indiana's abortion ban, using the law he signed 11 years ago as governor to help evangelicals refuse to cater gay weddings and such. Now similar challenges could win in other red states. We tell the story at @forward.com.

The Supreme Court did not strike down conversion therapy bans today. Not nationwide. Not in Colorado. Not anywhere. Here's what actually happened in Chiles v. Salazar—and why the coverage you're seeing serves the conservative legal movement more than it serves you.

Star Wars is really the clearest example of what Bender in Futurama describes when he says “ My story's a lot like yours, only more interesting 'cause it involves robots.” If you make any videogame but it’s Star Wars it’s instantly twice as good. NBA2k? Yes. Disco Elysium? Yes. Animal Crossing? Yes.
