Here’s the thing. Voting indeed matters. Where leftists get fed up is that, generally speaking, leftists perceive voting as the Bare Minimum of required political action, whereas Liberals tend to behave as if voting is the end all and be all of political action. The two are wildly different.

I’ve been playing Gen 1 recently, and I’ve kind of come to the conclusion that Gen 1 Pokemon that were balanced around Gen 1 mechanics didn’t receive a proper balance pass when Gen 2 changed up mechanics with the Special split and the Speed/crit changes

when the trade routes keep getting blockaded

From this day in 2021: My nephews were curious about Final Fantasy after seeing a Moogle I drew and I described Chocobos as looking "kind of like Big Bird" so then I had to draw it.

Fun #pokemon Fact! If you criticize Nintendo/GF for pulling out game features and separating them into their own apps, you get dogpiled by myopic fanboys.

Quote with your favorite bug type Pokemon! Can’t pick just one! Butterfree is a GOATED Pokemon in Gen 1 and 2 and operates really well as a sleeper/catcher. The only better catcher is False Swipe/Spore Parasect for Gen 2 Also, not listed here, but shout out to Gligar/Gliscor who is bug adjacent

Dragon Quest

What is a relatively easy genre of game to work on as a first Godot project? I have a million ideas, but I don’t know if I just want to jump in feet first guns blazin’. I think I’m sticking to 2D for now. #indiedev #gamedev #godot #godotengine

So it turns out paying people a living wage doesn’t collapse the economy; it’s almost like the rich have been lying to us to maintain their power over our lives.

American Christians when they talk about the Pope

Listen, you've never sobbed in your life the way you sob when you internalize that humanity is the means by which the universe understands itself.

If there must be a Mt. Rushmore of Horror, it MUST include Freddy, Jason, and Mike Myers. Who would be the fourth? #horror #horrorsky

Ok, hear me out, because there’s still a chance this could happen - an occult buddy cop horror comedy starring Jeffrey Combs and Brad Dourif in the lead roles. #horror #horrorsky

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but Jesus would totally be best friends with John Waters and Divine.

My main goal is to be a semi-solo indie #gamedev. But let’s say I want to join a team. I’ve chosen my engine right now as #godot. I know Godot kind of implores you to use GDScript, but I feel like using C# or C++ would have more transferability. What do people going on this journey recommend?

One of the neat things about my particular tech job is that my office is on average middle aged or older, with just about parity with men and women in tech roles. No crunch, great work life balance. #techsky

I know this is a bit biting off of the Scott Pilgrim games (some of my favorite beat ‘em ups), but if I ever get big enough and far along enough in my game dev journey I’d love to work with Paul Robertson and Anamanaguchi one day.

Who are some great bsky accounts to follow for indie game dev, especially in Godot? I follow the Game Dev and Godot feeds, but curious if there are any individuals I should be keeping tabs on. #gamedev #indiedev #godot #godotengine

I'm in a good mood. Have another #StarTrek #JellicoTrek

“I’ve come down with a case of ligua” “What’s ligua?” “LIGUA BAWLS! LMAO GOTTEM!”

Kanan Jarrus is the model of what the Jedi SHOULD become in the post-Sequel Trilogy world.

One thing I hope for for the Rey NJO Star Wars movie (assuming it isn’t unceremoniously cancelled), is that, now that we’ve deconstructed the myth of the Jedi to death, that we allow the Jedi to finally fulfill the promise of what they were implied to be…

Chat, am I right to hate NgRx/Redux? I feel like it flies completely in the face of KISS. #angular #techsky

Happy Shoulda Finished The Job Day

I need a new fucking job but I can’t get anything meaningful that also offers remote AND the pay I’m worth. My boss has like zero respect for me. I know I’m quirky sometimes. Sometimes I misspeak or am not clear. But god damn.

This is a truly incredible archive. This sort of thing just… doesn’t exist. Insane. A gift!

Anyone else fear, now that Pokémon Champions is out, and relatively shitty compared to Showdown, that Nintendo will finally go after Showdown in the name of enshittification?

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but as far as I’m concerned America still exists in the Pokemon universe and Mew is Latina.

Ok, last politically related post before we return you to your regularly scheduled broadcasting. How’re we supposed to just go back to normal after a day like yesterday. I feel like I’m going insane. I know “life goes on” but when you’re on the brink of WWIII everything just pales in comparison.

So, yesterday was a hell of a year, huh?

Trump chickened out. Wait, no, I’m sorry; I mean “brokered the yugest peace deal in the history of forever!” … I am not built for this nonsense.

Guys what if the "dead civilizations" are the friends we made along the way?

Is it weird that we are actually living in a moment where the whole “the world destroys itself while astronauts are in orbit/space” scenario might actually play out?

Just, on the slim off chance WWIII starts today and we all go up in a global conflagration, I love you all, so long, and thanks for all the fish.

Like, I’m not one to say there is an “agenda”, and hell, if there WAS one I’d be on its side. But I feel like the math ain’t mathing. Like, let’s assume LGBT identification in Star Wars is the same as on Earth. That’s approximately 10-20% of people.

I’m reading the Star Wars High Republic middle grade book “Escape from Valo” with my daughter, and, yo, why is literally everyone gay in this book? I’m not complaining, it’s not a bad thing. It just makes me wonder if there is a higher than normal percentage of queer folks in a galaxy far far away

I've always had more female friends than male friends. I just love women. I think they're cool. Maybe this is because I hate machismo and am secure enough in my manhood to be in touch with my feminine side, I dunno. But chicks/dolls/dames/etc are cool with me.

If, during the 40 minute blackout period, the astronauts did NOT drop trow and moon the moon, I am going to be SORELY dissappointed.

extremely bad time for an astronaut to find out he's a werewolf

One day JK Rowling will either d*e or sell HP to WB and then HP fans will be able to crawl back into the light.

My daughter and I are big @glitchprod.com fans, especially TADC, and I gotta say, I'm not gonna give any spoilers here, but I kind of hope there is justice for Caine. Episode 8's resolution seems too "easy" and, narratively, coincidences/accidents are always bad. IYKYK

I don’t know who I need to **** to make this happen, but we desperately need Sam Witwer to play Maul in Star Wars live action.

All the bullshit in all of history is confined to this tiny marble. You are nothing. Race is meaningless. Borders are meaningless. Money is meaningless. Life has no greater meaning, and that is a GOOD THING. You are free! Stop getting sucked down by the bullshit.

We are so, so small. #Artemis

We all agree, right? Daisy from Super Mario Bros. is Latina.
