We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

A lot of modern internet discourse feels like people grew up watching YouTubers who exaggerate everything for engagement and thought that was how you're supposed to behave

DOGE was created for data theft and infrastructure dismantling and it wildly succeeded on both counts within the first few weeks of its existence. It will take a generation to rebuild what it destroyed and the breach of data is unprecedented.
Bye bye, “DOGE”.

It no longer exists as a “centralized entity”, according to the Office of Personnel Management.

One of the most freeing things for me as an activist was learning to disregard the commentaries of other "activists" whose entire personality was to find anything you were doing and poke a hole in it because why not.

We need to stop clinging so hard to parasocial relationships. We need to start treasuring the people who actually interact with us, and are willing to do so on our own terms, with integrity and respect, not just because they have talent of some kind.

Holy hell what a list! JRoc, Kuumba, anarchy, and is that you I see doing a co-op run? Freaking STACKED.
November 20, 2025 at 10:25 PM
I have to give a shoutout and all of my love to the BtB committee on this one because this list was HARD AS HELL. The selection was not a joke this time around and it was painful having to cut some of these or even put them on back up.

Congrats to everyone that got in, and looking forward to Feb!
The Back to Black 2026 Games List is OUT!!!

I got a chance to play a SUUUUUUUUUUUUPER early build of this and am excited to see that its being received well! Congrats to @brandon.insertcredit.com and others on the release!
Rough edges are smoothed out by colorful characters, fun side content, and an interesting take on tactical combat.

I can understand asking for nuance in these discussions, but deliberately muddying the water by bringing up automation tools that people understand are not generative AI and asking for a middle ground is disingenuous. The nuanced position is that people are roundly rejecting the tech, respect that.
"Surely there's a middle ground here?" The CEO of Helldivers 2 studio Arrowhead says people "jump to extreme takes" when debating generative AI, and that there needs to be more nuance in the discussion.

I cannot believe @sega-west.bsky.social really said "re-release the butters", made them in black and reds, and then still said

"But just for Japan lol"
