Billionaires don't need more yachts, but an increase to the royalty rate on Steam would be life-changing for many small indie devs.

Y’all have got to stop trying to teach people magic with edh

{marketing meeting} VALVE CEO: Hmm let's see... does anyone here know who's addicted to Valve products and buys weird hardware at the drop of a hat? GAY INTERN: {quietly} Sir… I have to teach you a term right now… CEO: Is it "Six Sigma"? Because I'm way ahead of you INTERN: No, no… it's… "T4T"…

Every now and then I make the mistake of poking into LinkedIn and seeing the most genuinely unhinged monsters society has to offer

I remember when I was a student and being really excited for MIGS - it was a great time to see all sorts of talks and learn from amazing people! Easily one of the highlights of the year every time I went. Now? I just don't think I could possibly justify going, not with that programming.

friend shared this, immediately updated my settings

When we write or draw porn or erotica, we get banned from having a bank account and our livelihoods get seized even if we give it away for free. When billionaires steal what we've written or drawn to churn out a slop-approximate of porn, they're allowed to charge for it.

How do I explain to offline people that my favorite Japanese mascot said "we can only be liberated from queer oppression if we are truly seen as human" and then started wielding fireworks like a rocket launcher on the side of a mountain without sounding like I've totally lost it? Chiitan forever

We're ONE sleep away from @pcgamer.com's #PCGamingShow It's time to remake history tomorrow 👀

We're excited to announce that we'll be showing gameplay in a NEW trailer for @pcgamer.com 's #PCGamingShow Tokyo Direct on September 28th, 9 AM PT!

It's really cool having a lot of lovely and amazing and wonderfully creative transgender and queer friends in the U.S. whom I actively fear for their safety now! Actually fuck this timeline, I just want the people I care about to be safe and happy.

A move that went wrong #gamedev

It's been almost a year since our Reveal trailer at Tokyo Game Show last year, we have some BIG news coming your way next week so stay tuned 👀 #IndieGames #ScreenshotSaturday

Canadians! There is a petition to sign to protest Mastercard and Visa's control over the purchase of legal adult content. This is specifically about the Steam & itchio situation, but language protects adult creators. www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en... #nsfw #censorship #canpoli @acvalens.net

THE ELBOWS HAVE FALLEN

After the last FanFest and hearing friends talk about how fun it was, I was really looking forward to trying to attend the next one! Now I'm not even thinking of going because I'd rather not risk travel to a country run by people who seem intent on wiping out queer folks :')

Silksong was developed the way it was because the developer didn't have to worry about money. The only way you get more games developed like Silksong is if Universal Basic Income becomes a thing.

Gender is a spectrum and I am constantly running between both ends all the time

Had a wonderful time at PrideTO today! Felt great walking around and being comfortable in my own skin and seeing all the amazing people out and about

LinkedIn is really cool because I can see posts about some random guy using ChatGPT as a therapist even though I KEEP SAYING I DON'T WANT TO SEE ANY MORE GOD DAMN AI POSTS

BILLY, PLEASE, LISTEN TO ME! #gamedev

The parry in Clair Obscur elegantly tickles the part of my brain that goes "oh you can *TOTALLY* win this fight" and then I spend an hour on something I was *definitely* supposed to come back to later

Clair Obscur crashing is the only way I can get away from it long enough to go and do something else with my evening

I've got no idea what the hell happened today because I've been too deep in Clair Obscur after wrapping up work. Someone please help me

At the end of the day, I'm just a sucker for anyone with a two-headed scythe and fortune teller cards

Now, I did not personally choose the benefactor of this experimental, single-day, online-only Desert Bus spinoff, BUT… I am thrilled to give back to BC Cancer after what they did for me.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Hi! My name is Sam, I'm currently a Product Marketing Manager at Digital Extremes, working on @warframe.com 😊 Before game dev, I worked on different sides of marketing in esports, gaming tech, and mobile. 👩‍💻 #WhatAGameDevLooksLike

Why join this? Read these two images. This is their playbook. You cannot argue a point, you cannot accept their reality, and sorry if it's not fair. If you get flipped off driving a tesla? Wave an apology... But these combined is what they are doing and why traditional opposition fails.

Western press going "why the ceasefire broke down is complex and multifaceted' you disgraces to journalism and humanity the ceasefire broke down because Israel kept murdering, starved the concentration camp, didn't keep to any agreement, and then straight-up started massacring Gaza again

My name’s Danny and I mostly want to just tell silly jokes but by day I’m a Senior Character Artist for videogames currently working on Overwatch 2. I also apparently have one pose. #WhatAGameDevLooksLike

Hello #WhatAGameDevLooksLike! I may not be at GDC but I’m beaming my face into all your feeds anyway. I’m Zoe, a writer/narrative designer currently at Escape Velocity! I also worked on Marvel’s Wolverine and Borderlands 4 :D I love fantasy and horror and I have 2 cats that I am very annoying about

Hi! I'm Cameron, a genderfluid senior gameplay programmer working on Threads of Time who is very much not at GDC for a lot of reasons. I've got a special love for camera systems, but I enjoy doing all sorts of different things - both in my day job and on personal projects! #WhatAGameDevLooksLike

I'm not cancelling travel plans to the United States because of tariffs, I'm cancelling because a) I'm not white, and b) your government is threatening to colonize us and Americans are posting about how that would be good for the democrats, actually lol.

Ahoy! Barza joins the party of our time-travelling, turn-based RPG, Threads of Time! 🏴‍☠️ youtu.be/5HW0cipUKw4

It's gonna be an exciting day today 👀

Trudeau’s response to the tariffs is very good stuff. I especially enjoy, “They will violate the very trade agreement that was negotiated by President Trump in his last term.” www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/stat...

hello. in case you're still on the fence - this is actual fascism. it's not an indicator that the government is turning toward or at risk of fascism. it's actual fascism, right now, today, being enacted. this is an active coup. i suggest joining protests *today* as a show of force & resistance

Shout out to bishop sleeves - these things rock and I am loving the poof

My fellow Canadians! Did you know our trans friends in the US can't seek asylum in Canada despite their lives being in danger in their home country right now? Welp there is a petition you can sign to help change that! www.momentumcanada.net/pathways?rec...

I mean, literally, the answer to this is "I am federally prohibited from telling you anything about my students without a subpoena or judicial warrant; if you have a subpoena or judicial warrant, please submit it to [Legal Officer/Office] to ensure it is in compliance with all relevant federal laws"

That’s enough internet for today. Gonna just leave you with this @alfredtwu.com cartoon.

Urgent trans and nonbinary update: I called a passport office and got a sympathetic rep who told me officially any information about gender markers is posted online. Unofficially, they *literally whispered,* they have heard the same rumors about passports being confiscated.
