Tesseraction posted:I mean, all MPs using taxpayer money to live an indulgent lifestyle can gently caress off, but I think Comrade was specifically focusing on the arcade game cabinet. Yeah, I don't really agree with the criticism in the tweet - going after Jess for bilking everyone she sees for cash is fine and cool, but I don't think her making one corner of a room a bit of a nerdhole is particularly a problem. I was just communicating my shock at seeing Jess Phillips apparently owning and using what appears to be a MAME cabinet. But speaking of the Thatcher's Techbase arcade cabinet, I'm helping to organise this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GeIAl0IuVz0 And since that video was made, we've announced that the Youtuber Sophie From Mars will be speaking at the event too! The game jam has begun, and teams have formed, but you can still get involved here: https://itch.io/jam/twt Anyway, it will be a very cool time, I recommend that anyone who can attend the event!

Personally not a fan of Sophie from Mars, her videos are good but like that BadEmpanada fellow on youtube the two of them can't stop having weird beefs and drama on twitter dot com. Still give her critical support over the terf freaks who go after her.

Just Another Lurker posted:Was thinking myself that the Mexican tradition feels closer to the Irish one than the Americanised version. There's a definite similarity between the German Jewelled Saints and the calavera imagery, as well as all the flowers and altars with big baked breads. Whatever it was, it's definitely attached to Mexico and the US Southwest culture now though. Which I guess underlines how stupid the people who expect traditions to be static and magically rooted are.

Have grabbed a ticket, wish I knew about the Jam earlier but I probably wouldn't be able to contribute effectively, even being out of work looking for a new one is basically a full time gig you're not paid for, and it's been a while since I did anything outside of production. Have you been in touch with the Games Workers Union? Can shoot a link to the London members.

Hello UKMT, as an aside from chat, can anyone recommend a moving firm? I have to move from London to Glasgow (RIP marriage) in July. I could just go with Standard Internet Reviews but thought I'd start here instead.

purely in terms of not being bothered with royal events and not wanting The Chase knocked off its schedule on TV, tonight would be the ideal time for sovereign majesty king to slip away in the night, by my reckoning

You can predict Liz Truss' actions by assuming that she will maximise the possible entropy within the system, like a river flowing into the ditch you dug to divert it. She is actually the physical manifestation of what tories always wanted, it's fascinating that they flinched.

Yeah, in fact IWGB Game Workers are collaborating with us on the event and jam, and will be having an Organising 101 session at the one-day festival with UTAW, the tech union. And you should definitely check out the jam, there’s still plenty of opportunity to get involved and I don’t think anyone expects a huge time commitment. Look forward to seeing you at the event though!

Man, I'm a member of the IWGB and was looking at the youtube announcing the game jam the other day. So weird to see it here. I'd love to go but I'm 2 for 2 getting covid from travelling to London and honestly going anywhere scares me still. Have fun tho!

I have thought of one thing all this insanity is good for - Lioness* (my horse) should be well desensitized to flags and bunting by the end of the week. * She's Irish, so not named after the footballers. Best guess we have is because she's very noisy (shouts everytime there's any possibility of an unknown horse in hearing distance) and suprisingly brave.
