In some ways I think the disconnect people have with programming and code generation is worse than with writing and text generation writing is not the bottleneck for programming nor storytelling it's everything that happens before the writing and after the writing that's time consuming

Not sure how bad the deepfake problem is? Read Stella's farewell thread. This is an extreme form of remote sexual harassment that can now be used to target anyone, regardless of platform, in seconds. Despite news stories focusing mostly on CSAM it's still unchecked and rampant on Twitter.

Usability experts who *solely* prioritize "friendly interface that does what the user wants to accomplish" over design intention have absolutely no place in the design or development of digital games. Go back to fine-tuning banking apps or something, carpetbaggers

Just realized that Emperor Qin Shi Huang's "Terracotta Army" of clay soldiers he kept in a vault in like 200 BC make him the first Warhammer Guy. he got some disposable income and started painting minis. totally get it

Terry Pratchett is one of the only gentiles I've seen who Gets the golem story and can run with it in a creative direction that still ties back to the themes of the folktale that birthed the concept

Hi new followers! If you don't already know I have a new game coming out on January 22nd! It's a narrative adventure set in the year 2003 where you are a young writer trying to make sense of the world: store.steampowered.com/app/2088810/...

more games should use pre-rendered animated bust shots of characters to deliver dialogue like it's 1999 or Dead Space extra credit if they are all wearing helmets or have hilariously big headsets so you don't need to do lip sync

i love robinson's description of this, from memory like "i had no idea how to play this spy shit, but alexander siddig was the most beautiful man i'd ever met in my life, so i decided to just play it like i had a crush on him, and bless his heart, he picked it up immediately and rolled with it"

look who's got her name on a cover she drew herself, alongside very cool people (it's me, I'm "she", I'm so happy)

the US has been doing this shit my entire life with fewer and fewer justifications because the same goddamn people have been allowed to stay in power no matter what they do

Today proved one thing to me. Hitler was absolutely as batshit delusional as he appeared and his staff enabled a madman. No genius anywhere to be seen. And here we are.

polymarket is one of the most ghoulish creations in human history

Art v artist 2025!! The total tally for this year is: -10 covers -3 comics -89 pages of CTC -30 episodes of DOTF Thank you guys for following along with me. Happy new year everyone! 🥹

And now my doppelganger, and statistically yours too. He was in a DSA anarchist tendency on Corellia but dropped out when they endorsed the wrong city council candidate: Folks, it's Karis Nemik. (BTW, they got the *names* right for this show. Perfect lucas-grade names).

December was awful, so I looked back at the rest of 2025, including: • 2 new Twine templates • 2 new short games • My first GDC • 2026 plans consider joining me on patreon for free to keep up with my Grim Tidings; all patrons and free members can read this post www.patreon.com/posts/146567...

We have many examples of wildly successful humans that continue to support open-source tools but our society is rigged around the assholes that want all the money and power for themselves 🙄 Anyways, here's a nice example in our beloved ConcernedApe www.gamesradar.com/games/simula...

Wrote about how Apocalypse Hotel, through a bumpy creative process, accumulated many artistic lineages & viewpoints. Just like its story about a hotel operating after the end of the world, it thrives thanks to everything that a curious group of people left behind blog.sakugabooru.com/2026/01/02/a...

If you attract readers who like your work because you wrote it and everything you make has that certain special something, they will stick around for all of your books, even when it's out of their normal niche because they like YOU. I sell thousands of books a year by being a little weird. 10/

i think the root problem with "ai" is that it's built to deflect responsibility from the people who make it and control it, who are all rich assholes

2026, I don't want to see another post about 'layoff-proof" advice. "Here's how your resume can be layoff proof" absolutely not, workers can't change the cash flow of a company or the expectations of studio leadership in a way that is big enough to avoid a furlough/layoff/mass firing.

A year full of smiles☺️☺️
