MeinPanzer posted:Anyone else involved in the ongoing UCU (University and College Union) strike? If so, how’s it going for members at your institution? I'm absolutely not an expert, but from what I've heard Jo Grady, the head of the UCU has just repeatedly hosed up over this whole strike. She's made concessions that she didn't have to, she apparently revealed the state of the strike fund on Twitter (which drastically undermines negotiations) and a bunch of other stuff besides. People are really pissed off with her.

Stuart Campbell is just constitutionally, genetically, incapable of changing an opinion that he has publicly held. Once upon a time that was just about poo poo he chatted on a forum, or about where Twinkle Star Sprites ranks as a Neo Geo shmup. Once he ludicrously became a national political figure this became a real problem. Like probably most of us, he had not terribly progressive opinions about transgender people in the 90s and 2000s. But while we're able to learn and grow, he just fundamentally isn't. He can only double, and triple, and quadruple, etc, etc, down.

RRR is fun but tbh I found it a bit uncomfortable. Obviously the anti-British stuff was cool, but I think a lot of people really don’t consider the political climate it comes out of. It’s not like it’s actively anti-Muslim or Hindutva or anything, but I feel like if the US was ruled by a massively racist Christian nationalist (lol how could we tell), and then a movie came out that’s set during the American Revolution, and at the end one of the leads is so devoutly Christian that he literally appears as Christ, and then there’s a musical number in front of gigantic US flags, most people of our persuasion would raise an eyebrow, even if much of the rest of the movie was politically cool.

I watched the movie Tár in a plane yesterday and it occurred to me that you could totally make that movie about a UK broadsheet columnist instead, with the only difference being that at the end the entire industry would close ranks to make sure Tár didn’t face any significant career setback.

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!

BizarroAzrael posted: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. 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!

I never really thought the "Deano" memes were really that negative, more just popular because they effectively delineate a specific culture of people who exist. I read that copypasta and I thought "oh yeah, that's an accurate collection of observations about Guys Like That".

Gonzo McFee posted:You should read up on UK undercover police. If you want to meet your local undercover police officers, basically just start a left wing book club and at least one of the people who turn up will be an undercover cop trying to get people to do something illegal. There are kids fathered by undercover cops who basically got fathered by rape by deception. The UK government's response when it all came out was to retroactively make it legal. drat straight, I know every one of you is a cop.
