How do I get off Instagram as a professional creative? Or at least make it more tolerable? Within 5 minutes of scrolling the app, I want to smash my phone. Between the low tier brainrot, the incessant ads, the social fomo and Meta itself — idk how people do it…

Officially turning 30 in a month which means I need to stop messing around, and dedicate more time to accidentally playing video games the whole day and progressively letting my living conditions deteriorate 💪

I don't think they'll ever recreate what it was like to be on twitter in the 2010s. Soap opera stuff happening constantly. Poster you were vaguely aware of involved in federal fentanyl bust. Poster whose jokes you occasionally liked posed as his aunt (or wife?) for 6 years. Pastor who steals jokes

I agree that seppuku was the only way for Ed Sheeran to redeem himself but I feel bad for the audience at his concert who had to see that. Many of them will be traumatised for life

Soon after the explosion in Rafah, I’m told by a source familiar, the White House and Pentagon knew that the incident was caused by an Israeli settler bulldozer running over unexploded ordnance — contradicting  Netanyahu’s claim that Hamas had popped up from tunnels. 

After Netanyahu said he was blocking all aid from entering Gaza in response, and unleashed a bombing campaign, the administration conveyed to Israel that they know what happened. Netanyahu then announced he would re-open the crossings in a few hours.Mustafa Barghouti @Mustafa_Barghouti
@MustafaBarghou1
Netanyahu reactivated his genocidal war on Gaza. His army conducted more than 100 air strikes since the morning and killed more than 30 Palestinian civilians. 
Netanyahu also activated his collective punishment of the civilian population blocking all humanitarian aid to Gaza.

i can’t believe all it took for tesla stock to recover a bit was to do a paid photo op with the president of the united states, have the government designate vandalism on teslas as terrorism, gift multiple politicians and police stations teslas for photo ops, and get corrupt government contracts

THE SUBSTANCE nomination is a game changer. I’m long on record as someone saying the Academy doesn’t need to recognize horror, but every company who makes horror is asking for their THE SUBSTANCE, their short hand for “meaningful but unflinching horror film” and things are gonna get real interesting

I'm tired of new IPs in gaming. I just want someone to be bold enough to turn Ape Escape into a yearly product like NBA 2k so I can keep buying it over and over again. No graphical upgrades, just roster updates for the Apes and a Battle Pass where you can unlock skins for your Ape-capturing tools.

Hi everyone. What I want you to take away from the VML news today isn’t disappointment, or anger, or despair. It’s that ordinary people actually do have the ability to make a difference. 🌹
I have a multitude of deeply painful feelings about the VML coming to an end, which I know many of you share. 

But what I want you all to take away from today isn’t disappointment, anger, or despair. If the VML has meant something to you, I want you to take this away: that ordinary people actually do have the power to change the world. Every single one of us has a sphere of influence, and we can actively make that sphere better. 

It’s relatively easy for most people to see problems within their communities. It’s easy and natural to be angry about these issues, and to wish for something better. What’s harder is to understand what the root causes of issues are, where the pivot points lie, and to actually take action in an efficient way that has real effects. It was also hard for us when we started out to see the path to our desired goal: a world in which you don’t even have to think about gender barriers in our community. A world in which there is no need for the VML to exist. 

So we started with first principles. This was just before the pandemic, when the spectres of “special invites” to Mythic Championships, sexual abuse scandals, and the demise of Play it Forward were still hovering over the competitive space. Fundamentally, we took it to be true that:

- Cis men do not have a monopoly on talent or enthusiasm for Magic. 
- People of marginalised genders face bigger barriers at every stage of engaging with Magic, from the first time we pick up a deck right up to the Top 8 of the PT. 
- Creating a space where people are able to play with no barriers will bring out the best in them. 
- Long-term engagement with Magic depends on support networks and validation. It sounds obvious now, but there were doubts and attacks on us from the start. This is always the case when you propose something that doesn’t exist yet - it’s easy to see problems, but hard to envision a different reality. 

Step by step, little by little, we figured out how to start filling the gaps of what was lacking. We made professional, high-level coverage that effectively showcased how talented our players were. We talked Wizards into Set Championship invites. We gave people who couldn’t access regular events the opportunity to compete. And we created mentorship and testing team programs to help people learn to build the support networks that would carry over into mainstream events. I’m not going to pretend it wasn’t hard. Every step, every detail was difficult. We also made many mistakes along the way. But through the dedication of our team members, and by being smart about which battles we fought and how we used our energy, we actually managed to achieve some of what we set out to do. The VML wasn’t started by people who were particularly established or rich or well-known, but we managed to see results far beyond what we thought possible. 

And even in this world, against the backdrop of everything that is happening in the US and around the world, you are also capable of participating in change. It starts small - perhaps with just a few people, perhaps so small that it’s deep within your heart. 

My friends, reject helplessness. Find connection with each other. Start building the world you want to live in, brick by fucking brick. 

Love and solidarity always
HY
