Sherlock Holmes: Moriarty, my one intellectual equal Moriarty: Holmes, my one nemesis, for you alone can match my genius Sherlock Holmes: let us settle this great game, this contest of wills, in the only way it is appropriate *two drunks kick each other in the stomach by a waterfall*

the ambitious mess of a game, fortunes run, which i enjoyed and had much fanfare, had their (trans) lead dev thrown in prison for a year?!!?!? and dictated dev logs from prison exfiltrating patreon content via their lawyer?!!???? how did i miss this store.steampowered.com/news/app/169...

the right are allowed to openly have militias while the left can't even print pamphlets

Right now the world is full of people who want to code and write and paint and film stuff and people who want to play and read and look at and watch stuff and nobody is allowed to do any of that because some unrelated third guy isn't making enough money off the deal

is the truman show an omelaslike and was truman the villain for depriving so many of the joy of his public existence just for his selfish need for personal privacy? but first up, a shout out to our platinum sponsor, palantir...

i am not handling the friction of future well it is wearing me down to something dull and joyless

i really despise that people consider duckduckgo's resource wasting to be fine because they're allowed to toggle whether or not they personally see it, positioning them as some kind of "ethical" alternative is nonsense

love having to change my work password and then needing to wait a day or two for it to percolate through the lasagna layering of auth systems we use

i had the misfortune of being involved in supporting the initial response to fire ants in queensland and from the very beginning the focus was entirely on guaranteeing continuing funding over actively getting rid of the fucking things

hey twitter margaret kudelka and a bunch of @kudelka.bsky.social’s family and friends are doing dry july, raising money for canteen who do incredible work supporting young people affected by cancer. if you have a few spare bucks you should chuck them here: www.dryjuly.com/users/margar...

the thing about trans visibility is that it would have worked incredibly well if the *liberal* bigots hadn't made it their whole deal it was the Atlantic, NYT, BBC, etc. that screwed us and cemented the ascendancy of fascism

I am very good at programming but I am also available to hire as a design consultant on immersive sims, the one part of design that I feel is actually in my wheelhouse.

In progress: "Lyra", oil on canvas, 12x12" #art #wip Working on the wood grain on the floor.

So much of the pathological behavior and deranged worldviews of these oligarchs can be explained by terror management theory and a basic over-salience of mortality. I'm convinced that if we carefully orchestrated a bot farm we could incept them to take suicidal risks out of desperate fear

OP has since updated with a quote reporting having gotten a visit from the Feds for this post. There are people in the comments clucking about how they should have known better than to fedpost. Buddy if this is fedposting then the concept is meaningless

accidentally made a gnatt chart and absolutely fucked my project time frame

90% of modern media criticism just sounds like this

“Just as monstrous and mutant algae invade the lagoon of Venice … in the field of social ecology, men like Donald Trump are permitted to proliferate freely, like another species of algae, taking over entire districts of New York.” —Félix Guattari, 1989

man the Alan Wake DLC killed a lot of my good will towards Control

Quake is such a cozy game ^^ Screenshots from my upcoming 1024 units map jam entry.

Everything's owned now by financial entities that are so big they can just vaporise any holding that might start looking a bit chippy and union-curious

y'know, i've had three different women over the course of my life tell me that i reminded them of the protagonist from Tartt's The Secret History and i don't think i'm ever going to be able to escape that dark gravity of being defined

Understand that the central benefits of any piece of art lies not in its technical aptitude or aesthetic triumph or even emotional poignancy - but in its ability to encourage others towards the process and practice of art-making. ‘Good’ art is that which helps lots of people want to make art.

Antisemitism is structurally necessary to Elon Musk’s politics, because he is desperate to brand himself an insurgent against the powerful elite, but as the world’s first trillionaire, he needs a definition of “elite” not rooted in wealth or corporate ownership.

Absolutely superb work by @skyelark.bsky.social: Hanson's massive non-English speaking figure includes 100,000 babies. Yes, really. thepoint.com.au/factchecks/2...

Seeking a Blender technical artist/rigger to exactly recreate a legacy isometric player sprite rig + render pipeline for an old-school 2D RPG. Need near pixel-perfect body/camera/silhouette alignment so future equipment layers render correctly. DM examples + rates. Please share!

Alex Cox’s Repo Man (1984) is the (then) end result of 40 years of nuclear supremacy, cinematically and culturally. Four decades of Cold War paranoia, atomic horror’s chokehold post-Trinity, irradiated into pop culture and daily life. A disaffected and stupid joke at the end of the world’s expense.

This is how neocolonialism works btw. The US will stop at nothing to completely destroy Cuba without needing to step foot on the island.

going fucking insane in an 8am meeting filled with people who are purely talking just to hear themselves speak

there's something remarkable how on a scientific level we're performing what would essentially be miracles and on a cultural/political level, we're going in reverse

"if kids don't learn ai they'll get left behind" who are the ones "getting ahead"? the ones who go onto silicon valley jobs as good little button pushing drones only to be replaced later down the line? the ones who are supposed to find meaning working for the likes of google and roblox? fucking joke
