Do I know anyone who is going to PAX East and might be interested in participating in a panel on interactive fiction, or perhaps about writing and gaming in general? Please DM! 👀

I’ve added the script for Wake Up Dead Man to my site. This is the final shooting script, so it has stuff that was cut and moved around, which I always think is more interesting to see than a conformed cleaned up version. Enjoy! www.rian-johnson.com/screenplays

This is why it crucial to call your reps. Give them permission to do this. Tell them this position is not out of the main stream, it IS the main stream.
To quote one source:
“They’re terrified of being labeled anti–law enforcement. They want this to go away so they can talk about the cost of living more. Problem is, it’s not going away.”

Jeffries Won’t Whip Vote Against ICE Funding - The American Prospect
While the House Democratic leader announced personal opposition to a funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security, he won’t pressure his colleagues to do the same.

Called my reps though I expect only one of the three of them to do the right thing. On DHS/ICE, but also on pretty much anything. Always happy to be pleasantly surprised though.🙄

Look, I'm going to tell you a secret. If you buy an e-book while it's on sale, you never have to read it. If you have $2 to spare & want to help that particular author, you can just chuck the book into the oubliette of your TBR. Every sale helps. The author will never know, but you gave them a gift.

Since the manga volumes were released in black and white no one ever saw this as red unless you had the original monthly. It just looked like a dark sky, maybe a bit like a regular eclipse. This is why I try to collect and often scan from multiple sources.

I don't think Sands of Time needs to be remade because it's great as it is, but still big oof here. I'm deeply sorry for all the affected development teams and that layoffs keep happening throughout the gaming industry.
BREAKING: Ubisoft is canceling the Prince of Persia: Sands of Time remake and 5 other games (4 unannounced, 1 mobile). The company says it is also delaying 7 games (including an unannounced project believed to be a Black Flag remake) as part of a larger restructuring.

I was trying to give them a chance to respond, but it's been 15 hrs and nothing so: LA WorldCon is using genAI "art" on their website and promo materials. Given everything that went down last year (and with SWFA recently), it's pretty disheartening to see this.

Q: How do I unlock Sunglasses Macron?
A: It's very difficult to unlock Sunglasses Macron in the course of a normal game because it requires a specific and unlikely sequence of events. While default Macron is ruler of France, the USA must choose the monarchy path and then lay claim to Greenland.
