ugh im really sad about Affinity

I’ve seen enough. It is time to arrest Jeffrey Epstein.

There’s gotta be a moment where working in the games industry is just straight up unethical cause of the kind of people it elevates

yes the game about a mute character with a gun for a hand needs heaps of dialog cheers

"In October 2020, Retro posted a job advertisement seeking storyboard artists to work on "emotional" and "interesting and innovative scenes that elevate the narrative". lmao

ohhh Retro made it, that makes sense

it's weird how Massive Losers are becoming regular characters in games

i will train the LLM with a clicker and treats.

PAper House is going to be an AI-First company

hey do i know any 3D animators anymore?

lol what

Everyone excited to buy a Steam Machine.

Valve should just call it the Ouya

We really have to start talking about why we hate children so much. overland.org.au/2023/12/we-h...

steam cube. ouuhhhhhh im steamin my cubes. my cubes are gettin steamed until they are soft and fork-tender

anyway i reckon Valve should have leaned more into their products being that dark Steam blue colour instead of black

oh no

this is giving

The federal government only wanted to help South Australia with the algal bloom if it did not require new funding despite being briefed that an estimated 250k marine animals had been killed, new documents obtained through FOI reveal. New from me in @thepointau.bsky.social.

‘I’ve been trying Copilot … it’s foundationally amazing’ lol

omg i just linked a paywall. sorry

lol Wood & Weather is so good

this says nothing

the FUCK

i love it when people send me some content and say 'terry core' and its just like footage of someone who attached some skate wheels to an old log they found in a river and do a kickflip with it or somethin

That’s right

Help mom I’m being bullied by 87 year old novella writer Joyce Carol Oates again can you pick me up

Can we all say our fav shapes? I’m real curious now. I reckon mine would be a right angle triangle. I like how it’s half a circle, the maths behind it is pretty straight forward and it’s fun to say.

We never properly promoted it, being busy with Raincaster, but we recently brought our tiny first game Doggins to desktop for its 10th anniversary, and it's now on sale as part of Steam's Animal Fest! store.steampowered.com/app/3394450/... #steam #steamgame #steamanimalfest

@aynrandy.boontavista.com should I listen to boontavista. I don't really fuck with podcasts and don't actually know anything about it but you guys seem to post about it a lot and everyone seems to love it

It is so insane that it's taken a massive asshole like Tim Sweeny to rein in Google's monopoly over Android payments and the Play Store. Collectively, millions if not billions of app developers (and users!) will benefit. www.theverge.com/policy/81399...

Ay yo. Remember Space Food Sticks??

one thing i am excited about it the new Metroid and being able to use the joycon as a mouse to aim. I've always wanted to use a mouse and a controller for FPS since forever ago. Mouse for aiming good, WASD for movement bad. This just does everything i want!

why do people link articles behind paywalls as though they're just publicly available. It's really weeeirrdd

This has 'Ads On Your Paid Streaming Service' energy

could just hear the quiet weeping of every indie dev now needing to update their Steam pages to match the new layout

I hate that we're supposed to trudge through year after year after year acting like we don't already know the most effective solutions to social problems because some people don't like it. We know the best way to treat homelessness, addiction, crime, poverty, hunger, and bigotry but won't do it.

Yeah well this needs to be protested

We had fucking congressional hearings over Mortal Kombat.

All the copyright, environmental concerns and job security things aside. AI kills people. Just straight up. AI kills people

I can’t even get through reading these articles. They are just the most saddest and completely avoidable situations that have been created. It’s so fucked how normalised this has all become. It makes me sick to my stomach

I've long criticised the dehumanising and patriarchal partner income test embedded everywhere in the Australian welfare state. The tax on love really does hurt families, and has a real impact on relationship formation or termination. www.reddit.com/r/Centrelink...

Banning stuff doesn’t get rid of problems. It’s just putting a blanket over the top

Bad take. Nothing should be banned by the social media ban because it shouldn’t exist. www.theguardian.com/games/2025/n...

I injured my shoulder a few months ago and just in the last 8 weeks I've gone to the physio 15 times, had an MRI, 2 ultrasounds, went to ED, been on three different kinds of medications, multiple blood tests. Tomorrow I'm getting a cortisone injection, CT scan and another doc appointment.
