- Reposted by Everest PipkinOnce again: Focusing on their lack of training is a mistake. With "better training," their violence would simply cost more, and they would still kill whoever they wanted, but make it look more professional — to make people more comfortable, the way many of you are at ease with local police violence.

- Reposted by Everest PipkinI've talked to people on the ground about the strike here tomorrow, and the single thing everyone brings up is just how shockingly wide the support for the strike is. Businesses that no one would have expected to support it are doing so.

- Come work with me! We've opened the search for a full time, tenure-track Assistant Professor in Game Arts at Pratt Institute. A good match would be an artist, game developer, or educator with an active creative practice in indie games, game studies and theory, playful coding, or art games.
- Pratt Game Arts is an undergraduate generalist game design program. We teach towards an 'industry standard' skillset but encourage students to build those skills while making experimental, strange, personal, and poetic games– the kind of work that emerges out of being housed in an art school.
- no hate to the blessed interviewers who live outside of the discourse, but i was recently asked “when was the first time you realized games could also be art?” and pulled my first ever no comment

- Reposted by Everest PipkinThere is no longer any doubt that Israel has set up a fake humanitarian organisation so it can kettle Gazans into a kill box and murder them en masse It is evil beyond description and in a decent world it would result in immediate, massive, global action to stop them and prosecute those responsible
