spoke with the executive director of my local food bank today and got this really incredible line: "if you donate 1 can of green beans, we can give away 1 can of green beans. but if you donate a dollar, we can give away 6 cans of green beans"

here's a little reminder that the app Too Good To Go helps connect folks with huge discounts on restaurant food when things are about to expire - might be useful while SNAP benefits are still not being paid out in some states #food #foodsecurity #mutualaid www.toogoodtogo.com/en-us

if you want custom music for your project you can actually just do this & it will work

Spotify is crashing HARD because of the boycott. Their stock dropped 11% in value over the last month. Let’s keep this going! Tell everyone you know to boycott Spotify. There are plenty of alternatives that don’t run ICE advertisements and screw over artists. We made it easy at boycottspotify.com.

It's true, you should play Sonic 2: Gear Shift. If you liked the Game Gear game you'll love this hedgehogtechnicalinstitute.com/forum/viewto...

@machturtl.wearybones.rest you interested in these?

Stop sharing AI slop. It's one thing if you don't know or just made a mistake. No need to breathe down someones neck b/c its harder to tell nowadays. But if you do know (ESPECIALLY IF YOU DO KNOW) even if you're posting it to make fun of it or sharing it unironically... consider not doing that.

This is complete hogwash

I talk to the press professionally, I'm really, really, really good at it. So please, please believe me when say you cannot turn this interview request into anything good, it will do only harm. Harm to you, harm to your child, harm to other children.

If you pay attention to music production discourse, so much discussion is based around gear that costs an arm and a leg. It's good to remember that: a) most musicians are poor b) a lot of iconic sounds were created because artists didn't have what they thought they needed c) you're smart and scrappy

Delighted to see OutRun GB pick up 85% here in Retro Gamer \o/ GP Hero got an 80%. I'm coming for the Sizzler next time !:)

Hauntii has a great soundtrack

Spotify has had numerous chances and done a lot more shitty things to creators/artists/etc. Dumping them and seeking other alternatives should be the norm tbh but if you haven’t, then this should def be the catalyst for that.

I saw someone call Ai a Thneed and I can't stop thinking about it. It's a PERFECT analogy. The Thneed was an all-purpose tool that didn't do anything really useful. It was a fad that did major damage to the environment to make the Onceler a billionare. It left no real lasting impact, only damage.

Remember kids the people who tell you that you are asking for too much… don’t want you to ask for any

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

yearly reminder to people insisting that we view Christopher Columbus as "a man of his time" that *the people responsible for the Spanish Inquisition* thought Columbus was out of pocket

Chiitan has a dream. I hope that one day the term LGBT will become a thing of the past. I will continue to spread my message until we live in a world where everyone can love freely and is free from persecution and discrimination. Until then, let's all support each other🤍
