Happy Pride Month, friends!! This year, I hope we protect each other and those that are struggling. No one should feel less than or endangered because of who they are.

Ever since I started following Celia/Jamwitch, I have been nothing but thrilled with the games they put out. Really excited to see where this goes next!

Finally wrote a devlog for The Archives of Trevosa! I want to talk a lot more about our inspirations and design, but decided to do that next time, but then couldn't resist talking about them a bit. ๐ Plus, some hints about Trevosa's future! ๐ฎ

Updates, inspirations, and what's next for The Archives of Trevosa
For Ludum Dare 59, we created a narrative deduction game about translating an unknown language in order to fill in a multigenerational family tree. Itโs been awesome to see the response to the game...

Part of the "broken clock being right twice a day" thing is that when you hit one of those two times in the day you don't go "well I guess I had clock all wrong" or "looks like the clock is finally working again"

Been watching more stand-up over the past few years, and something I've noticed pretty consistently: cis comedians can write genuinely funny jokes that mock trans people, but only when those jokes are grounded in actual insights that have been gained through proximity, curiosity, and receptivity.

I'm torn between wanting to drink up every word Amabel has to say about this game, versus wanting to shut my eyes and ears entirely and forget what little I've been told so I can just jump in with a blank slate.

I'm never not happy to see a new narrative deduction game, but one with a language puzzle? Set in an eerily familiar alien world? That I can complete before bedtime? What a delight!

Bottom surgery stats: I spend a daily average of 90 minutes dilating and <1 minutes having penetrative sex. I expect this ratio will shift over time, like interest vs principal payments on a long-term loan. Can I predict the point when this "debt" is paid off? Should I draw up an amortization table?

When I was in high school I read the book Sophie's World by Jostein Gaarder. It's a fourth wall breaking YA novel slash intro philosophy textbook but that's not important, what's important is that I thought the name was pretty and it stuck with me. I thought maybe I'd name a daughter Sophie someday.

The gender marker was introduced as a paranoid reaction to the idea that it was possible to be unsure of someone's gender, and it will always be a mechanism for reprimanding those whose appearance doesn't meet expectations in line with what it says on the ID.

What you don't do is start by saying you're fine with the guy feeding trans people to the leopards and then, when trans people say they won't vote to be fed to leopards, respond by saying "well the other guy wants to feed you AND OTHERS to the leopards. So get on board, bud."

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm. The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him. Happy Black History Month.

any actually liberatory political movement is going to have ample room for, and need for, people who don't "fight" โ because more than half the work is always gonna be some variation of tending the wounded, literally or metaphorically what they have zero room for is scolds, fools, and snitches

GRRM should introduce a new viewpoint character who is retconned as a background figure in a series of flashbacks to major scenes from all the previous books. At the end of each chapter, they turn to the camera and say "wow, this really was a Game of Thrones!" (/Clash of Kings, etc)

Again we are stating flat out years in advance we will not vote for this American Psycho. Won't do it. Full stop. You put him up, you're gonna lose. It would be best if y'all stopped standing for this ghoul, whether he's monologuing about Huey Lewis and the News or genocide denial. Fuck this guy.

Tonight, the President of the United States has launched an unconstitutional war of aggression, dooming another generation to spill their blood for oil, and lay waste to a sovereign nation. I demand that Congress exercise its power, halt this conflict, and impeach this war criminal president.

Either you understand that there is an organized campaign to push trans people out of public life with the explicit end goal of "morally mandating us out of existence" that is backed by some of the wealthiest individuals to have ever lived, or you're simply not equipped to grasp what's happening.

The number of cross stitch designers using GenAI is absolutely disgusting. Stop using AI for ANYTHING. We don't need it in your model photos. We don't need to see it as your inspiration. We don't want it in your patterns. We don't need to see your slop images to troll. (1/2)

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

"the anti-mutant people have a point" but that applies to real-world minority groups too. we all have within us the capacity for violence. some (nuclear engineers, boxers, sharpshooters) more than others. but "the capacity for great violence exists" is not itself a reason to imprison us.
