The "Mixtape is an Ellison nepo baby project" discourse is peak modern internet: pure, unadulterated grift fueled by people who would rather manufacture outrage than open a single Wikipedia tab.

Let's actually look at the reality of how this game got made.

Mixtape wasn't cooked up in a Hollywood boardroom. It’s the brainchild of Johnny Galvatron. Johnny is an Australian musician who used to front the punk rock band The Galvatrons. In 2017, he stepped away from the band to found his own studio, Beethoven & Dinosaur.

His first game? The Artful Escape. It was a masterpiece that won massive critical acclaim, secured BAFTA nominations, and proved Johnny’s unique voice in the industry. That proven track record and creative success is exactly what landed them the funding for Mixtape.

But sure, let’s ignore years of indie hustle, actual musical pedigree, and an award-winning debut just to chase engagement with a lazy narrative. Do better.

Reminder: just because you're not personally into a game, doesn't mean it's a bad game

The idea that game composers can���t possibly score film/TV is ridiculous. Meanwhile game devs hire film composers who haven’t played a game in ages (or ever), who have no interest or love for the medium, and who hand it off to their teams for a quick paycheck. Make it make sense.

I’m not in the US (Thank christ) but I’m definitely feeling a lot of dread today.

UK folks buckle up, cause we’re going to be feeling the effects of this in 4 years.

Also, i’m on the other app 🦋

If you’re on Twitter right now, you are not the kind of person who is going to miss out on big picture analysis long-term.

I think the thing to do today is focus on stuff that’s close, stuff you believe in, stuff you’ve gotta do, and stuff that brings you joy.

ethel cain on the election:

"if you voted for trump, i hope that peace never finds you. instead, i hope clarity strikes you someday like a clap of lightning and you have to live the rest of your life with the knowledge and guilt of what you've done and who you are as a person."

[Ems @Embleeps]

what an absolute fucking coward. I’m glad i didn’t vote for your party.

[Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer]
