You found what had once been a research outpost, clinging to an old skyscraper like a barnacle; the human inhabitants long gone, the lab mice having survived, proliferated, and evolved a bit for survival, learning to grow plants and fungi for food with dripping rainwater. #WhisperingInfinities

frustrating that this piracy discourse is the same goddamn thing every time, has been for years, while discussion of exploitation of writers by publishers tends to remain very faint. it feels like this is a frequent steam valve for frustration, a group that can be yelled at without risking jobs.

This is awful, and Diaz has QTP'd that they have insider info that @crunchyroll.com execs consider the current backlash against their enshittification of subtitles too small to matter.
They've bent to backlash before tho with trying to lower video quality.
This is an important one, anime fans.

and shoutout to the French kitchen staff having actual French voice actors! it gave me the biggest smile to hear their accents every time one of them spoke ^^
Loco Motive might have like, some of the best voice acting of any adventure game I've played? I am VERY picky about voice acting and often skip lines due to my high reading speed, even in games I enjoy the writing in a lot. Loco Motive's cast is fucking killing it. They elevate every single line

You can either get mad at people on Reddit or you can start 5 collections of trans work to share with everyone and try to uplift the voices of artists people say don't exist. Even if it's just a bit.
As I've said before: you too, can search the web and write a blog post. And I think you should.

The secret to "becoming the guy who can recommend a lot of trans work" is to be petty about something by supporting others and I'm NOT even kidding. When someone complains that your work "isn't x" or "isn't y enough" that is YOUR TIME TO PROMOTE SOMEONE ELSE'S WORK WHOLE HEARTEDLY.
Finally... over 300 tm/m and tm/tm stories and projects in one collection... so I can shove it in the faces of people on Reddit (and elsewhere) who complain when I post tm/f art and complain that gay trans work is "impossible to find"... WELL SAY THAT AFTER YOU READ ALL 300+!!!!

In the decade-plus I've been making my weekly videos, Rebecca was the only developer to have jumped into my comments to clear up a point I was unclear about—then she graciously agreed to be on the podcast. I found her to be as generous and kind as she was talented. It's truly tragic that she's gone.
In hearing of the passing of Rebecca Heineman, I thought it would be worth sharing this wonderful interview she did on @retronauts.bsky.social:
