Just yesterday Canadian Blood Services said there was an urgent need for blood and plasma donations.

Today's tragedy is a reminder that donating blood is something that you can do that will always help in the wake of a mass casualty event, but it also preemptively saves lives.

Starfinder 101: The Drift ✨

How do you cross a galaxy in days? You enter the Drift, a hyperspace plane connecting every point in space.

When the machine god Triune broadcast its secrets, the galaxy opened up overnight.

But it's not just a highway... it has its own dangers 👀

Any time a company has to "make a statement", it means they're sweating. Cook them

Discord is already starting to walk things back a little, so people should keep doing what they're doing (cancel Nitro, leave feedback/criticism, direct contact through support tickets/phone/email/etc)
Tl;dr: The vast majority of adults will never have to interact with our age assurance systems and their experience won't change, because we know Discord and how people use it, so we're designing to respect privacy and deliver a safer experience while minimizing friction for adults. Hey folks – I’ve been on Discord since very early 2016 and actually joined the company in 2017. Safety is one of my areas, so today’s announcement on our blog is something I’ve been pretty involved with. I’ve always cared about Discord's approach to privacy (E2EE for A/V was another of my projects here), so I figured I’d add some more context to today's news. I can say confidently that the vast majority of people will never see age verification. I say this because we launched age assurance in the UK and Australia in 2025, and we have some pretty good data on this now. The idea here is that we can pre-identify most adults based on what we already know (not including your messages!), and that looks to get us pretty far here. No face scans, no IDs, for the vast majority of adults. And if you are one of the smaller subset of folks that we can't definitively pre-identify, then still, you only have to do it if you're accessing age-restricted servers or channels, or changing certain settings. That's really not most users. (Altho... might be more Redditors, tbh.) Last, I know that there is concern about privacy and data leaks. That's a real concern. The selfie system is built purely client-side, it never leaves your device, and we did that intentionally. That'll work for a bunch of users who aren't pre-identified as adults. But if you do end up in the ID bucket, then yeah, you're right that has some risk. We're doing what we can to minimize this by working with our range of partners (who are different partners than the data leak you read about), and if it's any help, we learned a lot internally from the last issue. But I get if that doesn't necessarily inspire more confidence. Anyway, we’ll be sharing more next month as we get closer to the global roll out about the system, including the technology behind it in March. I honestly wouldn't be happy if we didn't build something good and I am excited about what we’re launching, but please let us know what you think when we share more details. And I really appreciate everybody's feedback here today. We’re definitely reading it!

Here's those preliminary details for WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH on @apocunlimited.bsky.social !!! Stay tuned this week for recruitment forms to go out!!!

Spread the word so people know!!
Screenshots of notes app: WHM 2026 on Apochromatic Unlimited Theme: "kicking down the door" Rebellion, being loud, taking up space, rock n roll and punk - all in that vibe. Charity: Women of Color Unite https://wocunite.org/ NEW: We will be trying out the native Twitch fundraising platform for this event and fundraising directly in Twitch. Metrics for success: 1. Women of color getting to connect with each other and empower each other 2. Our audience walking away with a greater understanding of how to support women 3. Funds being raised for Women of Color Unite. Priorities: 1. Limited, high quality content over quantity. 2. Games will all be *livestreamed oneshots only* in order to keep scope limited. 3. We will be seeking experienced producers *only* this year due to the limited turnaround time to ensure high quality production. In future years we will aim to teach women in order to further empower them. Dates: March 21, 22, 28, and 29. Sponsorship: Due to the limited scope of this project, we are not accepting any sponsorship this year. You can support us instead by donating to the charity, donating your time and labour to our success, or donating your social media to our success by increasing our visibility by boosting posts. White allies: White allies will ONLY be allowed in a volunteer behind the scenes capacity (eg. producer) *if no one else is available to reliably assist*. Definitions for the purposes and scope of this project: 1. Woman: A woman is anyone who identifies as a woman. They may be AFAB, genderqueer, or trans, but so long as they identify themselves as a woman somewhere in their intersections, then they count as a woman. All members of our safety team will identify as women and women are the priority for on screen presence as players and GMs. 2. Non-women: anyone who does not identify as a woman. This may include non-binary people and DOES include cis men. Folks who identify as non-women and not as cis men can expect to be involved as behind the scenes volunteers (graphic design, production etc), and will only be welcome as players or GMs if there are gaps that need to be filled. 3. Cis men: Specifically cisgender/assigned male at birth men. If you identify as a cis man anywhere in your intersections, please note your involvement in this project will be to a much more limited scope. It will be made clear exactly where cis men are and are not welcome. Cis men can expect to not be on screen unless a game specifically calls for this demographic of player for educational purposes. They can expect to be behind the scenes volunteers only when gaps need to be filled. Cis men will explicitly NOT be a part of the safety team. Content: Our goal is to have a mix of educational content and games that are all women for women and by women. We are wanting a mix of panels and games. GMs and panel moderators/leads will be given assistance with casting for their games/panels. Panel ideas: Why does feminism still matter today? Feminism in decolonization. How to support the women in your lives in meaningful ways. Specific games we are hoping to see: 1. An all Black women's table - including, if possible, a Black woman producer. 2. An all trans women's table - including, if possible, a trans woman producer. 3. A table for The Apochromatic Unlimited women admin, if possible 4. One or two more games maximum of any type that meet the theme and goals of this project Process: 1. A form will go out seeking to find GMs and panel leads/moderators, as well as volunteers willing to help with production and graphic design. 2. Upon finalizing programming, player recruiting and pre-production will commence. 3. Once players are recruited and GMs approve of their players, session 0s will be done.
