Anyone using the Fable app for book lists?

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

The lack of affordable, self-paid healthcare is one of the most anti small business stances one can take.

We are blending souls like combat and level design with n64-era collectathon vibes set in a magical rodent kingdom in Mouseward! store.steampowered.com/app/1188410/...

“The evidence of priming studies suggests that reminding people of their mortality increases the appeal of authoritarian ideas” — Daniel K, Thinking Fast and Slow We should be talking more about how covid and other recent crises could be leading to the continued rise of conservatism everywhere.

Some personal news: I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting. Thread incoming. substack.com/@karenattiah...

guess i should share some wip from today, even if it's not that great :c

“today’s ruling allows the government to remove those individuals and others to any country that will take them—without providing any additional process beyond an initial removal hearing, and without regard to the treatment they may face in those countries” this is basically human trafficking!

We may be new to bsky, but we're not new to gamedev. Anyone interested in a souls-like inspired by Redwall with a 3DS-era aesthetic? #indiegames #indiedev #gamedev #fromsoft #soulslike

after drinking chai i feel like i can conquer the world.

why can’t GenAI be doing stuff like, idk, counting calories in a photo of your meal instead of trying to replace ghibli art.

find that i'm reaching for snacks and drinks most often when it's time to add automation

had an amazing time at GDC and I met so many people that I will remember forever! and familiar faces that keep me going. it’s a tough week as an introvert and my brain is still trying to process it all, but it already feels like the highlight of the year.

there’s no such thing as “just following orders” with inhumanity like this

Flow was a really good movie and deserving of the win. Good soundtrack as well.

a really cool logic pro feature would be to set a flag on specific regions, like a note to re-record it or something.

first real blog post on void sols music is up!!! vivimouse.com/blog/posts/2...

finally beginning my void sols soundtrack retrospective! check it out over on my blog :> vivimouse.com/blog/posts/2...

I’ve really yet to find a soft synth with rock solid undo/redo controls.

🌌 Void Sols is OUT NOW! 🌌 In this minimalist soulslike, play as a humble Triangle traversing a stark and unforgiving landscape. The journey isn’t just about survival but rather transformation. 🔺 #indiegames #soulslike

Just opened my journaling app and read a wonderful quote saying that life is like a piano. The white keys represent happiness and the black sadness. … 😤

I've been listening to this on repeat. over and over. don't give up hope. youtu.be/6T0MFCX9SLI?...

I didn’t watch the election results last night. I deleted all my news apps. Didn’t plan on checking until Thursday. I guess somewhere in my heart I already knew, at least with Georgia. But I was spoiled this afternoon by an email from my fav local burrito chain’s mass email: “A Glorious Return”.

the Great Filter is absolutely, without a doubt, 100% real

my tw*tter account is filled with so many spam and bot followers lately. it just feels completely unmitigated at this point.

depressing reading the bungie stuff, but I hope it turns out for the better for anyone involved.

Last of the track previews for Turning! This is a simple reflective melody with harp, strings and piano.

this year has really gone by too fast. only really met half of my goals but progress is progress i guess.

One of the forest themes for Turning. Always my favorite type of track to write.

Once again I've played more time on switch than anything else. Kinda wish I had picked up the OLED.

I'm excited to share this preview of music I've written for Turning! This track, Seeds of Life, is a theme for the morning using piano, strings and winds. I hope it brings some relaxation and calm to your day.
