Listen to me. Listen. If you're making images that will only be displayed on screens, YOU HAVE TO LET GO. You can calibrate your screens perfectly, but then 25k people will see it on their shitty $50 monitors or cracked phone and its out of your hands. Don't think of it. Achieve enlightenment.

Whenever indie devs use AI, it hurts their sales potential and retention because it’s a 🚩red flag for generalized unprofessionalism and cut corners. Getting real art from a pro will make you look like a pro.

Israel bombed Gaza 100 times last night & has, once again, blocked essential aid. They want total death. Trump's "plan" was always going to lead to this & it's an irrevocable stain on our "leaders" that they rushed to praise it. Only a full embargo on the zionist state will end the genocide.

FUN IS GOOD FOR YOU!!!!

RFK is undoing human subjects protections so he can conduct placebo trials of vaccines. That means infecting people knowingly. I wonder who will “volunteer” for these trials? If history is any guide, a lot of incarcerated and other powerless people.

There are many people whose lives are so much better for having you in it. Remember that. You are important, and you are loved.

Sleep is a biological necessity, and sleep deprivation has real physical, psychological, and social consequences that need to be taken seriously. The way our society treats it as slothful to sleep according to natural rhythms (including midday naps and variant chronotypes like night owls) is evil.

Here's what was actually happening in Los Angeles an hour before the downtown No Kings march, if you want to support Indigenous activists instead of supporting lying bluesky accounts.

Look, it’s really straightforward to get a publisher as a new name indie in 2025. Simply do 95% of the work making and marketing your game, and if your metrics are trending towards almost certain success, a publisher will swoop in to promise the remaining 5%, deliver 3%, and collect 75%

Senator Ed Markey (D-MA) at the Boston No Kings rally today, wore the trans pride flag like a scarf draped over his shoulders and included in his speech. "Because here in Massachusetts, we stand for what is right. We stand with trans people because trans rights are human rights."

Hey, as a heads up for NSFW peeps in the US, US President administration just made a shitton of BlueSky accounts. I would highhhhly recommend subbing to this blocklist so they don't show up on any algorithm feeds (and so they can't see your shit) bsky.app/profile/eva....

heartbroken to learn the pope sympathizes with the poor. how can i continue to believe in god

Maybe a good day to unfollow Hard Drive if you had still been following them. It's no wonder they need AI to make jokes for them these days.

oooh. Bookmarking this! "How to turn off AI tools in Apple, Google, Microsoft, and more." Step-by-step instructions from Consumer Reports.

Please keep going, bro. Take breaks if you need them. Take care of yourself. Shut things down for a bit. Surround yourself with your favourite things. Just keep going. I get it's easier said than done. I've been through this. It's crushing sometimes. Please don't give up. Don't let anyone else win.

Remember how the Death Star had that one hidden weakness? Well, an important kill switch in this massive surveillance network is: individual control over a bunch of the nodes. People hold the power to tear the network down. Love your neighbour, trash the Ring camera.

Remember, brown 13-year-olds are hardened menaces to society, but 30-something Republican Hitler afficionados in positions of power are just li’l guys.

Needing multiple streams of income to stay afloat is a societal failure not a personal one. You should be able to afford a comfortable lifestyle with one job. You are not lazy.

Israel isn't complying with the ceasefire agreement (letting in aid, releasing Palestinian hostages, simply not killing people) because the state doesn't want a ceasefire: it wants full liquidation. Don't allow a complicit media to paint Palestinians at fault for their own genocide.

whoever did this little bit of magnificence, take a bow

Free speech is when you are punished for criticizing the President’s favorite podcaster.

Please be conscious if you protest this weekend that there are feds at the protest. They look like you and they sound like you, not like Steve Buscemi in that one clip with the skateboard. Thinking you can spot them is self delusion. Nobody you haven’t met needs to know your last name.

Trans rights!

Not me learning you need these appointments just to get on HRT, I thought they were for like, SRS or something. Which would still be bad for that wait list.

It’s impossible to overstate how much “abolish ice” is the normie position now here in chicago — just countless random moms at toddler soccer on a park district field asking me where I bought my anti-ice t-shirt. average people don’t like our neighborhoods being terrorized.

My queue has opened up a lot more and I have a little more than a month to get around $1200-$1500 (I'm starting to remember that there are a lot of bills I gotta pay at the end of the year) So please any and all work will be appreciated! 🙏

an Indigenous Peoples Day reminder that borders are bullshit and every Indigenous person from across the Americas deserves to be in the US more than every person of European origin fuck borders, fuck ICE, land back.

Fashy Cinemasins That's what this is, the effect the proliferation of "anti-woke" youtube grifters have had on their audiences as a whole, stunting their ability to engage with media and training them to look for "DEI sins" to call out, atrophying their ability to enjoy the games they're playing.

Salvation Army seen feeding ICE today. For anyone who doesn't already know about their bigotry, here is more, No need to give them your money this Christmas, or ever.

We should be asking this c o n s t a n t l y.

Help @spice8rack.bsky.social cause this wonderful human being deserves all the help!

Hey all 👋 my living situation has dramatically changed. I should be fine for a few months, but if you'd like to help me make - significantly increased - rent, then any change would be greatly appreciated. Patreon: www.patreon.com/spice8rack Ko-Fi: ko-fi.com/spice8rack PayPal: [email protected]

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

I genuinely cannot express how vital it is that you train yourself to recognize AI-generated images and videos for your own good because none of this is going away and many, many people are counting on you to fall for their shit

being trans is not a negative outcome and neither is being autistic

Found this on the AO3 subreddit, and I'm about to let it change my whole life (or at least work really hard to internalize it wrt my writing).

It cannot be made clearer. If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

Ireland has approved plans to permanently implement a basic income program that will support up to 2,200 artists. A cost-benefit analysis found that for every €1 invested, society receives €1.39 back. Officials from other countries are now expressing interest in the program.

This is actually what is going to happen. That’s already what’s happening in Lebanon. Israel kills regularly, violates the ceasefire agreement on an hourly basis. It’s just not on the news anymore. This is why pressure against Israel mustn’t just continue, but increase.
