Women in Games Boston stands with the most vulnerable members of our community. #BlackLivesMatter
I don't have a lot to add, but I'd like to make this clear: Boston Indies exists to help lift up all creators and build a caring and inclusive community here in MA. Racism will not be tolerated in our community, now or ever, and we support those who believe that #BlackLivesMatter

This entire thread. Yes.
GWU unequivocally and unilaterally supports all actions taken by black protesters against police brutality, the US police state, and the institution of the police itself. It is imperative that non-black workers follow the lead of their black comrades in these times.

Congratulations to MA based @popcannibal and @SmallBuStudio for being recognized during GiantBomb's game of the year awards (for multiplayer & style respectively)! Kind Words and Later Alligator brought people a lot of joy in 2019, we're glad to see these games get some love back
