@Nostagain Thanks for the livetweets :)
Dr. Rainforest Scully-Blaker does NOT give up hope for wholesomeness. By troubling the “good old days”, we can examine what makes those days good? Being critical about that can help us pave way for a good future for EVERYONE.
Rainforest says: Even wholesomeness can be found in pasts that we find static, not productive, or even harmful. All nostalgia in wholesomeness is conservative— it is used to coat the past, pass the (hegemony of a) past, or to paint that past as a good, warm, bubbly thing.
Rainforest: there are escapes that relies on the time that your money can buy. @animalcrossing, a wholesome game, for example get you to divert by playing.. but it still gets you to work and pay the bills. Not all wholesome games are a total exit. You have to play to pay.
Dr. Rainforest Scully-Blaker looks at the politics of wholesomeness in video games— which is a favoured, common, and assumed concept. Something framed as WHOLEsome is built from PARTS of some thing… political visions of a time, promises, and biased memories.
Video games are terrible nowadays because developers don't include an entire page of recommended reading at the back of the manual to further elucidate their whimsical satire of post-war American suburban consumerism.
After the Black Death, there lots of complaints from the ruling class that serfs & peasants were quiet quitting and in general didn't want to work anymore. From tthe Statutes of Labourers, 1349-51. You can read the same stuff in the Wall Street Journal today.
this has no right to go so incredibly hard

In 2014, Ursula Le Guin warned that corporate power wanted to stop us from even imagining freedom. Nearly a decade later, the tech industry seems intent on using generative AI to do just that. It’s our responsibility to stop them. disconnect.blog/p/generative-a…
