Give folks their flowers No, I mean right now. Go tell someone you loved their work right now. They're on social media just say it, it has never been easier "They know how much people love--" no they don't go say it right now to a composer or artist or game dev or writer or anyone AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

Nah, fuck adding silly music to videos like this. That only helps lessen the potential horror of this moment. That is someone cycling for their life. Gotta make that number go up, though.

functioning labels are harmful and only serve to separate us from each other and from the resources we deserve to live optimally this includes level 1, 2, 3 which literally tells me (a psych professional) almost nothing about what you need focus on specific challenges (communication etc) to help!

Hey a thing I really don’t want to get lost here is that while Tylenol doesn’t cause autism, IT’S FINE TO BE AUTISTIC. Let’s not grant them the premise that autism should be eradicated in our way to correct the science, okay? Okay.

the trial of this connect 3 game was pre-installed on a phone i had in my teens. in the trial, you had 60 seconds of play before you were asked to purchase returning to the menu reset the timer. i'm sure the devs thought 60 seconds would be enough to complete a few, but not all, story levels (1/5)

Yeah, no. I'm a contractor, I write for games, and sometimes that means writing 100% of a game's text. I'm a valuable part of the team! Contractors aren't just "support", they deserve to be credited (and treated) better than this

If there’s a single worst thing that’s happened to video games this year it’s the perversion of the idea of games being made by a small team. “Made by 3 people. Made by 30 people.” No it’s fucking not.

I don't get how people don't realize that a technology that replaces junior and entry level positions in a field destroys that field. There's no skipping steps. You have to be a junior before you can be a senior, and if you don't have senior people, you don't have a field.

i implore thee to give away thy stuff for free 🫵 obvs if you can sell it, then do, but the moment you consider throwing something away that could be reused, try an app like Olio instead and see who might be able to use it! you'd be amazed how creative people can be with what you consider unusable

reposted this today because the inverse is also true: if you abandon trans people right now, you are abandoning civil rights period. if you can't stand up for trans people when it matters, no one should, or will, ever trust you when the bullseye moves to the next target.
