Money and power are concentrating in video games in the same way as in the wider world. And games influence people’s thoughts and attitudes: the most powerful people in the world have started to realise this. I wrote about the state of play at the end of 2025:

State of play: who holds the power in the video games industry in 2025?
This year has brought us many brilliant video games – but as wealth continues to concentrate, and games are used to exert economic and political influence, we need to keep an eye on the top players

Not surprised, of course. But still. Steal from the creators who made your company what it is at a large enough scale, and you reward the thieves with wealth the likes of which none of us will ever see.

14 year old girls said they try to swim away but when caught by Jeffrey Epstein he would take their passports and not them leave.

Masks of old white men hanging on the wall maybe for the old men to disguise themselves as they raped these kids.

Absolutely disgusting.

An illustration of a young women yanking a weed out of a bed of marigolds. The primary colours of the piece are deep green and a saffron yellow, with some brown and moss green tones as well. The camera is looking up at the young girl with a forced perspective, as she pulls out the weed while leaning back. The text reads: PULL FASCISM UP BY THE ROOT.

The creator of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, Vince Gilligan, creator of the new Apple TV+ sci-fi PLUR1BUS has “this show was made by humans” in the credits.

He recently mentioned this about gen ai and about original TV shows. www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...
Article (Alan Sepinwall; Rolling Stone) excerpt reads: “While Gilligan is experimenting with a new sci-fi concept in Pluribus, he’s in an industry where an older trope of the genre — the robots coming for us — has somehow become a depressing reality. “If you really want to wake me in a cold sweat at three in the morning, AI is the stick to poke me with,’ he says. ‘But then some deeper part of me says, ‘Human beings are always going to want stories created by other human beings. They are not going to want stories scraped by Sam Altman and his guys from the artistry and hard work of literally thousands of years of writing and painting and music, regurgitating it into something new.’ ” Article (Alan Sepinwall; Rolling Stone) excerpt reads: “Hollywood’s obsession with IP — and the impossibility of anyone without Gilligan’s track record being allowed to make something this big that’s not based on a comic book or video game — feels like its own existential threat to him. ‘Star Wars is great. Marvel Comics is great,’ he says. ‘I’m a giant fan of Star Trek. But at a certain point, new generations coming up need their own Star Wars. When the business gets to the point that that’s all that’s being made and there’s no room anymore for original ideas, that’s like the death of a civilization. Am I lucky that I get to do something original? I am. And it makes me sad that it’s that unusual.’”

People need:
- Clear connections between the real problems and solutions in politics and policy.
- More low-income & working-class people working in every aspect of government, at every level.
- Politicians and other political groups to spend more time in low-income and working-class communities.
daniellaurison.bsky.social Daniel Laurison @daniellaurison.bsky.social · 20d
Lower-income people are less likely to vote than higher-income people, across racial groups - and that gap has been growing.

That’s a real problem for the future of US democracy.

It’s not apathy or ignorance - for many, it’s a sense that politics is not for or about them.

In a report out in Jan +
Chart with Turnout on the Y axis & election year (2016, 2020, and 2024) on the X axis. 6 lines, 3 for White, Black, and Hispanic in households making over $100k/year, 3 for the same groups in households making under $30k/year. Overall you can see turnout increasing among higher-income people in all three racial groups, and declining (White and Black) or staying flat (Hispanic) among low-income people; the turnout gap by income is much larger in 2024 than in 2020 or 2016. from 2016 -> 2024: - White $100k turnout goes from 65% to 78% while white under $30k turnout goes from 55% to 49% - Black over $100k turnout goes from 51% to 64% while Black under $30k turnout goes from 48% to 33% - Hispanic over $100k turnout goes from 52% to 67% while Hispanic under $30k turnout stays flat at about 36% (higher in 2020 at 42%).

Today is the day to repost this meme about International Men's Day, one of the most unironically wholesome memes that has ever been made.

Shoutout to all my fellow champs, chiefs, and kings. ✊
Nerdy kid at keyboard: Hi guys, I've noticed that it is International Men's Day today, and I'm confused. Why do we need a day to talk about men? We're not a marginalised group like women, queer people, or people of colour. The media is already full of stories about men. Big buff shirtless dude at keyboard: I'm glad you asked, champ. Whatever your view on men's place in society, it's still true that we face a lot of issues - like social isolation, risk of suicide, health problems, and attitudes towards sex and child rearing. Having a day to talk about those doesn't take away from anyone else's problems. In fact, having a day to talk about them helps us be more mindful, and listen better at other times. Second shirtless buff dude on a couch at his laptop: The chief here is really on to something. I want to echo what he said, and also point out that the idea we should remain silent about our problems actually contributes to a lot of our issues. We are human beings, with human needs. Seeking mutual support and understanding isn't the same thing as placing a burden on others. Especially if we're providing it for each other. Third buff dude at his laptop: Right on, my fellow kings. We've inherited a social legacy of competition and division, and a lot of what makes a man in our era is under question. IMD is a chance for us to examine and rethink what we are together, and build the bonds of solidarity and support that will make a better way possible - like in this meme. Because in our hearts, we're all curious kids and buff guys on keyboards.
