What do you think she was trying to convey with this t-shirt?

California has now banned algorithmic price fixing.

The state has outlawed the practice of landlords colluding to raise prices using rental software and AI.

This is a huge victory for renters in the biggest state in the country.

What's great about this is that the footage becomes impossible to use for the right. "Portland is being burned to the ground by violent antifa terror gangs" like yeah, these ones? These are the gangs you're so terrified of you need an army?

Meet your co-workers, producers of Juno's World! Talented directors, actors, and... others. Not at all a hive mind cosmic horror bent on sipping from a tainted chalice of doom and despair!

Laugh Track's demo releases Oct 10, as part of NextFest. Not long now! store.steampowered.com/app/3765430/...

An old photo of a line of cultists in blood-red robes. Narrator: My rise was... thrilling. I drank deeply of life in ways few others could.

Photo of a dimly lit back room, with three humanoid figures made of glowing cosmic energy smoking and drinking and chatting. One, a man in a brown business suit named the Director, says: Seriously? "Pronouns?" We're doing pronouns?

Three enormous eyes with irises tinted cyan, magenta, and yellow stare at you from a vast cosmic void. They are identified as "Management" and say: We Demolished The Fourth Wall, Invited You In To Play... And Then Rebuilt That Wall Behind You.

In the cartoon world, a teacher stands in front of the class. Her flesh is made of the same dark cosmic energy as management. She says: We have determined arithmetic story problems such as 'Jim gives Jenny three apples' are woke DEI grooming propaganda.

We now have a trailer!

The Bagman is a 16-bit #pixelart retro #horror game. A stealth point and click. Imagine if Day of the Tentacle met Alien Isolation, but with an 80s/90s slasher vibe and gratuitous gore.

You ever think about how Microsoft was at the forefront of an era of video games where it looked like the US was going to be the dominant cultural force of video games, and now they own a significant chunk of the US game industry, and they're just throwing it into a furnace to keep the AI lights on.

They definitely look more blue at points than purple. This is because the skin has anthocyanin, which reacts strongly to pH changes. So blueberries in a soil with a more alkaline level will be more blue (sometimes VERY blue) and in more acidic soil will look more purple.
