if you aren't already supporting @mothership.blog, you should be. support women and queer people in video game criticism and journalism. we deserve to exist in these spaces but, at least in the case of mothership, we can only exist and pay our writers and introduce you to new writers if YOU help us.

i'm glad that today at @mothership.blog we can share a review of the game Moonlight Peaks by @zoehhannah.com. this game is adorable and sweet and a little bit deeper than you might expect
mothership.blog
Moonlight Peaks strikes just the right balance between cutesy and deep
It's unapologetically dramatic, it’s cute as hell (literally), and it has *magic*

Friendships between men are often quiet. In Big Walk, silent communication just isn't enough — that is, unless you're doing a puzzle where communicating with your body is the only option. New from @daytenrose.bsky.social here:

fish are friends
Stop using anti-fish language
Instead of: this seems fishy
Try saying:
this seems like a situation in which we should consult the wisdom and grace of the European seabass, a species with which i would entrust my entire life and personal safety

Text chat is the lowest stakes when it comes to speaking to others because it is asynchronous but also fairly fast moving and making people stumble to read actually demands more attention rather than less so it comes off extremely performative

I want to ban people who use tiny text in Markup on Discord because it makes it hard to read and low contrast. Public chat doesn't need *sotto voce* that everyone has to struggle to read because you have social anxiety or talk like a fictional protagonist in a social environment

my work had a photo contest for the field peeps (surveying) & this was one of the winners and it is cool enough i felt like i should share it
photo from atop one of the towers of the Golden Gate Bridge. a survey is atop it with face censored out), looking over the San Francisco bay. fog and clouds are far below, level with the bridge itself. it's a view rarely seen, to be that high up above the bay.

Heathcliff, wearing a Greek military helmet and holding a spear, rolls up to the Elite Fish Market in a huge model of a fish on wheels, popping out from a small door on its back. Two employees watch him approach, and one says "The Trojan Tuna is back."

One time there was a subskeet about dudes on here being creepy, and then two dudes in the comments were like "Creeps in Bluesky? Oh no!" and basically saying they were too scared of women to be sexist, and then the OP was like, "This post is literally about you two in particular." Completely ethered

DoorDash spent $1.4M trying to stop Zohran Mamdani from becoming mayor. This week's historic $131.5M enforcement action against DoorDash for underpaying NYC delivery workers shows why. Yet another reminder that the only thing that can beat organized money is organized people.

A man in a green shirt and blue hoodie, resting his chin on the palm of his right hand. He stares off into the distance, thinking about...what, exactly? We cannot say. His expression is inscrutable. We can only speculate. We are struck by his gloved hands. The suede is soft and supple. Though lost to us now we remember how that feels.
