The Game Industry Hides How Bad The Really Bad Layoffs Are (The Jimquisition)
The game industry layoffs are really bad, but according to testimony gathered for The Jimquisition, it's far worse than they look. It's all thanks for the nasty tactics companies employ to obscure layoffs behind other forms of job termination.

It should go without saying, but my Patreon contribution is for you to do with as you please. If you use it to help pay for video editing? Cool. Pay for hosting fees for the podcast? Neat. Pay for something that just makes you happy? Awesome. It's none of anyone's business. Imagine if the people who signed my paycheck got upset about me using that money to get myself something that makes me happy. It's wild that people feel you can't do that with Patreon money.
The capitalist world view Steph people from another podcast put it best poor people exploited to make cheap products which are stolen by the poor because we are all the same. The corporate class have convinced people the politicians are the issue but it's more as people us understanding what we need and require and that the government are the same as us when they aren't bought with the same money that fuels this
Entirely unrelated, but do you know what the eyeshadow is you're wearing at 17:54? It's super pretty and glittery and I want it!
The Bride of Pinbot has arrived! Wonderful!
I hope MY patreon money goes towards you living a decent life, while publicly talking about the human cost in the games industry. Or whatever else important or entertaining content you make. And I fully expect that to include hobbies. Go ahead - get another pinball table, if that makes you happy !
I hope mine exclusively goes towards xenomorph figurines.
Don't know about the rest of the beautiful people in Patreon, but this one does not 'pay' Steph. Merely leaves a very small token of appreciation every month, because thank god for them.
