My friend Carolina is trying to raise $200 to help her father pay his bills and get his medications. I know everyone is hurting right now, but if everyone could throw in five or ten dollars, it would help out a lot.

Let me know if you donate so I can thank you.

I'm looking to send out a pitch that is about an indie game but also placing it in a much broader cultural context. I have my somewhat open-minded and still well-paying games place I usually pitch to when I have an idea like this, but this time I'm curious if there's any places I could get it in front of a larger/different arts audience.

Are there any arts or culture places that would be open to games-related pitches from random freelancers, and, importantly, pay enough for it to be worth my time (like, at least £200)?? I realize I may be asking for the golden goose here or something....

The eighth annual international Gender Census 2021 is now open until 10th March!

It's for anyone whose genders (or lack thereof) aren't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and the results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.

Don't suppose anyone has any horror recs? But things that aren't based on ableism, racism, or sexism? I get no media is perfect but media that at least tries to avoid those kinds of tropes would be great. Films/books/short stories/podcasts whatever!

The "Stansted 15", direct action folks who locked themselves around a plane set to deport 60 people to 3 different African countries, have had all charges dropped after originally being convicted of terrorism.

The people who were set to be deported are still in the UK as a result of their actions.

Was looking around for some public domain images to use for a project today and stumbled across William Goldman's work, who lived in the late 1800s in Reading PA, very near where I grew up. Some of his most well known work (only discovered well after his death) is a series of photographs of women who worked at a nearby brothel, some posed, and others snapshots of them going about their day to day life. I find them really charming and also humanizing of a past we mostly see in terms of very posed upper class people. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Goldman_(photographer)
