Surprisingly, stainless steel chain doesn't do much under blacklight... But nail polish never disappoints.

Went to NZ. Couldn't resist taking a lot of my winter wardrobe to wear it at least one last time before summer heat hits.

Oh shit oh fuck it's gonna pop

✨Isle of Feathers is launching TODAY ✨ In a mere six hours, this game about strange birds will be out in the world! We’re aiming to stream the countdown to launch on the Isle of Feathers FB page (rb.gy/ctk31d), so check it out if you wanna join us and celebrate together! 🕺🏽 #kickstarter #boardgames

So, I reckon a few folks I know will be fans of this look

Bruh

technology used to be cool, but now it’s owned by the worst, most moneysick humans on the planet. but there are transsexual furry hackers out there still fighting the good fight

We don’t want AI slop. Stop sending us AI slop. Stop wasting our time with AI slop. It doesn’t sound good. It’s antithetical to our core values. You didn’t even make it. Knock it off.

Holy crap! There's an ACTUAL NUMBER for PayPal in this! PayPal is NOTORIOUS for never giving out numbers!!! This is pure gold!

Just encountered melonking.net It's janky, unique and exactly what I want more of on the internet

Queer developers speak out as adult games remain in limbo following payment processor showdown at Steam and itch.io www.eurogamer.net/queer-develo...

If "AI" was as valuable as they say it is, they wouldn't be selling it to you. They'd be using it themselves in secret to make the next Minecraft, the next Avatar, the next Hello Kitty and then they'd sell that to you. They're trying to sell you a sick goose, while pretending it lays golden eggs.

Been thinking about this moment from a Bug's Life lately.

Australians, spread this petition far and wide. Demands Parliament “open anti-trust investigations and penalize the unregulated monopoly of a key part of everyday infrastructure,” as “payment processors are not there to regulate what legal content people consume.” www.aph.gov.au/e-petitions/...

ATTENTION BRITAIN! 🇬🇧 The UK now has a petition to STOP CENSORSHIP by MasterCard and VISA of legal products! This joins the Australian and Canadian petitions that are gaining momentum. Come on, let's get these signed! And spread the word! The UK petition: petition.parliament.uk/signatures/1...

Turns out making a #turnbased #mockup is more addictive than I thought. Here are some updates: I reworked the cliff tiles, but the new version was too detailed compared to the unit sprites so i scrapped it. 😅 What do you guys think? #gameboy #retro #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart #ドット絵 #gbc

The last time I was at a studio with a layoff, a meeting was derailed because the director asked, with increasing irritation, which engineer was supposed to design a feature that underpinned the whole game. That engineer had been laid off 2 days prior, and no one else knew how to do it.

I love when the occasional doom mod feels like it belongs in the damn orange box, and yet it's a hobby project released for free. Quality isn't about budgets, it's about loving Example: Ascension denied m.youtube.com/watch?v=3uX_...

It's honestly kinda amazing how reliably anything that I'm looking forward to, will go completely wrong at the very last minute. Two weeks of extreme stress, really looking forward to some tech I ordered. Day before it ships, my family accidentally nuked the order. I'm just impressed at this point

I cannot overstate just how awful this stupid fucking bill proposal is - adding backdoors into encryption on OS level - "sniff" every single message before it gets encrypted AND SAVE IT CENTRALLY - let a goddamn hallucinating "AI" mark people as criminals it needs to be stopped, post haste

The hilarious thing is that I went to a cafe with friends and also picked up my boots that were being repaired/modded some wearing this outfit without one soul giving a single shit. Side note: check out the updated boots!

"On point" being quite the understatement

I'm getting back into wearing a fun outfit every day. I've done a lot of op shopping lately (and went to a cool market) so I've got to figure out what combinations work.

Content quotas now. #auspol #politas

The strength that you have. To deny a world that has wronged you and live your truth. They can never take that from you

I keep asking this to everyone who brings up sports (and haven't gotten a response from anyone yet), but I'll do it again: Watch this video and explain to me why this 14 year old girl shouldn't be allowed to play field hockey with her friends. I'll wait. youtu.be/yf9MfYZ-Bl4?...

In 25 years, every business school in the country will be doing case studies about how a long defunct company known as “Google” once had an unbeatable lock on online information retrieval and then started doing shit like this.

‘Visa and Mastercard’s adult content clampdown is a battle they can’t – and shouldn’t – win’

I'm finally seeing signs of the AI bubble being about to burst. An economics reporter on mainstream tv spoke at length about how the Commonwealth bank had to roll back many of their attempts to implement AI because the hype didn't equate to actual results

You gotta keep talking about the issue! Paypros havent reversed their policies on Itch or Steam yet! Keep talking about it, keep contacting influencers, news outlets and legislators about the issue! Keep it in the public consciousness!

I've recently been told that the average person finds defined collarbones to be an attractive feature (Pic included for reference) Now, mine are "hefty" but I'd never even heard of this being a thing. So... Science time! - Are collarbones a thing for you? - How common do you think this is?

I dunno if you'd like this but I enjoyed this video a great deal, youtu.be/X1beEuBV7M0

Legitimate organization that has a history of success and direct impact, I already signed and donated. Consider it if you don't want to lose your favorite shows/books/video games/etc. 🫶 The fight isn't over.

My new leatherwork "mallet". 1 ton force arbor press that I can use in the evenings without upsetting the neighbours.

Fuck censorship. They're coming after you next, whether you make porn or not. I have never sold NSFW services or artwork, yet here's my termination from Stripe! Fully SFW, innocent headshots of furries = adult content. This is what we've been trying to fucking tell y'all this whole month!

Since MB doesn't seem active on here and it's worth seeing a crosspost

OH MY GOD WE ARE WINNING YALL KEEP CALLING DO NOT STOP DO NOT STOP CALLING LOOK AT WHAT WE ARE DOING!!!

I never expected MS to be the ones to push the mainstream adoption of linux.

Stripe crossed a line now. Call up whatever local LGBT organizations exist in your area, gay activist groups, gay bars, pride organizing committees, folks who schedule drag shows, queer church groups, everyone. Also libraries and bookstores. Show up in person to talk to any business using Stripe.

Over the past month, independent content hosting platform Itch.io has been systematically banning queer & NSFW content. We talked to creators about how this impacted them, and how they’re fighting back. Written by @thefreeradical.org and edited by @davidforbes.bsky.social

Let's Keep Calling!

To echo others: that MasterCard is proactively reaching out to its advertising partners to try and blunt the impact of the pressure campaign is one of the surest signs the pressure campaign is having an effect (and after just two weeks, too!) Don't let up! Call/mail their asses!! #SaveSpeech

How fucking dare these patriarchal sockpuppet fauxminists claim the same struggle the awe-inspiring woman and enby victims of gamergate experienced in order to make our industry safer and brighter How fucking dare they. Zero shame.

I've been trying Pixieditor lately. While I -really- like the concept behind it... it doesn't feel ready yet. - There's unintuitive restrictions like no texture being bigger than the canvas (paste as layer is cropped by this also) - No nodes for the basic editing actions, no custom nodes.

Guess what? I'm going to be doing a talk at #gcap2025 on a solution to a problem I've been improving over the last... 15 years? How do you approximate sounds for large numbers of objects (crowds, trees, collisions, simulated water, etc)? Well... I finally have a solution that I'm happy with.

I'm seeing less posts about the Visa/Mastercard situation and I'm here to remind you to call them! Keep those phone lines busy! Send them letters if you want! Don't do e-mail cause they'll just ignore you! We need to fight this now and fight for long because otherwise things won't change.
