if you've seen a video going around of Epstein survivors talking about their abuse, you need to be aware that video is promoting World-Without-Exploitation, an organization whose website supports legislation like KOSA, and advocates for the "Nordic model"

they are not your allies.
a screenshot of the epstein survivors video, as well as a link to the website of 'World Without Exploitation' a screenshot from https://www.worldwithoutexploitation.org/ showing how they support the Kids Online Safety Act, a notorious censorship/surveillance bill while they call it the "survivor model", in reality this is basically a repackaging of the "Nordic model" of sex work legality, which does not actually protect sex workers. a screenshot of the end of that video showing that it was made by WWE

The bay area needs to get cheaper so the weirdos can come back. We also need brand new weirdos. More weirdos please
(from the below interview) 48 HILLS Kind of related, how do you think the industry has changed? On a broad scale, but also just in terms of the Bay Area scene specifically, what kinds of changes have you seen? BRANDON SHEFFIELD Obviously, the Bay Area has changed a lot. When I quit my job in journalism and started doing game development full-time, all the indie weirdo game devs were here. We all knew each other, we all had weird little dramas with each other, it felt like a big scene. Then, as tech grew and they needed places to live, all the tech folks came out into Oakland, and then all the artists that had left San Francisco to come to Oakland now had to leave Oakland. It just felt like arts were kind of disappearing from the whole area. And it was so gradual that it didn’t feel like it was a big trend until probably around the Ghost Ship fire, and then it felt like there was an endpoint for fun times. I think it’s coming back now, I feel like DIY venues are starting to happen again. In terms of the game development scene, there’s always been a gap between San Francisco and the East Bay, and that remains present, but I feel like both groups are smaller than they were before. There are fewer of us, and we don’t hang out. [laughs] But we try. I’ve been running an East Bay game dev meetup for 15 years, and we still get new people coming. But it’s very weird to watch things change over time. Because I’m staying in Oakland, this is where I’m going to live. It just feels like things are changing around me. 48 HILLS I mean, you mentioned DIY venues coming back. I’m curious if you think that could make its way into games as well. BRANDON SHEFFIELD I feel like it’s possible. I think that it’s easier when there’s a natural energy happening, and I don’t know that that natural energy will happen without cheaper rent and a bunch of young people. I can’t build a community like I could when I was in my 20s because I don’t know if the youngsters want to get involved in the same way. The way that I’m thinking about building community is probably very different from the way that someone who is graduating high school right now is thinking about building community. I still want to try to push the things that I can push, but I also want to be ready to support whatever new things are coming along that young people may try to build. And I hope they do, and I hope that I can help facilitate. I can only hope. Rent going down is the only thing that’s going to change it.

Ana is currently dealing with either a coordinated, but quiet(er than usual) harassment campaign of malicious reporting, a coordinated debanking, or a literally unbelievably coincidental series of deplatformings. It just so happens she's been one of the loudest critics of paypros this year.

Is it really a conspiracy to say Ana is being explicitly flagged by finance bros when she's now been banned (or censored) from Twitch, Patreon, Buy Me A Coffee, Ko-Fi, and *PornHub*??

The Pinball Primer (which includes 760 pinball strategy guides) is back online.

The footer of each page now links to a page protesting the IFPA's refusal to enforce its inclusion policy, and their victim-blaming and silencing of trans players.

I am SO beyond excited to announce:
My next adventure will be at Sunset Visitor, the studio behind the amazing 1000xRESIST!
I can't wait to get started and see what we can cook up together ❤️✨
An image I created to announce that I am joining Sunset Visitor. At the top of the image is the logo for the studio, it has a character in profile wearing a space helmet in a purple, pink, teal color scheme. The name of the studio appears next to the logo. The background of the image is a low opacity version of the cover art for the studio's game "1000xResist". In the foreground middle of the image, there is a stylized drawing of myself and my two dogs. The drawing of myself is a picrew called "Toon me!" by Hello!Sunnycore (I was too lazy to draw myself) and the doodle of my dogs was done by me.

Our (brief) slumber is over, and we return to our weekly stream schedule!

It looks more or less the same, but don't miss out on the conclusion to our current Civilization arc + we play some Greenhearth Necromancer while our community manager does some graphic design.
