cooling down after a very very long week with the season premiere of game changer. glad tidings to all who observe

🔴 THE SCHEDULE IS NOW LIVE 🔴 torontogamesweek.com/schedule This year we've got: - 50+ showcases, workshops, games, talks and performances! - Almost 40 free events! - 12 outdoor events! - 7 soccer-adjacent events made possible by the City of Toronto and the Community Celebration Support Fund!

I'm helping to organize a series of events at @torontogamesweek.com celebrating unconventional play. I'm looking for #gamedev folks with "alternative control" games to exhibit: experiences that break normal interface conventions. If you have such a game you want to show in June, please apply here!

[You are encumbered and cannot run] [You drop: Greatsword of Frost] [You are encumbered] [Warning! Dropping Prince Tim will abandon his questline!] [You drop: Prince Tim] [Quest failed! "Tiny Kingdom in Need"] [You are encumbered] [You drop: (1) of (14) Cheese Wheels] [You are no longer encumbered]

the whimsical library theming of my escape room is stirring up a cliche tea-and-books-tumblr fragment of my psyche which has been dormant since my mid-20s

The City of Ottawa posted the raw speed data from before and after Doug Ford banned speed cameras and the effect is so obvious it's not even necessary put a line marking when that happened. This chart shows the percentage of drivers going 15km/h or more over the posted limit.

three different librarians this week have booked me for my intro to d&d program 🙏 their group chat must be blowing up or something

survival horror shooter game but all the zombies that jump up are a series of nested and interdependent deadlines that you willingly agreed to

when we mourn le guin, we mourn one of our greatest writers & thinkers. but we also mourn one of our all-time greatest haters

idk if this is a hot take but if your event is solely local retailers and food vendors that's fine but you're not allowed to call it a festival

every Jason Bateman comedy is about him playing a hapless, pencil pushing, emasculated middle American, and every Jason Bateman drama is about him playing the same character except he's also a human trafficker

while we've all had a lot of fun, it's time to formally announce that the social experiment known as "hasan piker" has concluded

youtube needs a one-click option for "you're correct to recommend this to me, but i already watched it on a different device so stop recommending it"

classic one from the books, sing along if you know the words: fuck doug ford

This law is as authoritarian and undemocratic as anything Trump has ever pushed. Members of the Conservative party and ONLY the Conservative party are now 100% shielded from any Freedom Of Information requests from the public or reporters. And it's retroactive, too. Some real Innocent Guy shit.

cannot believe my library branch has been closed due to a flood since january and there's still no reopening date

One of my favorite Yugoslav designs is the K67 modular kiosk. Injection molded modular plastic building often used for newspaper vendors, coffee shops and info kiosks. Could be linked together like legos. www.archpaper.com/2023/01/univ...

Very interesting to see the crunchy launch of the Finch LRT build pressure and political will to improve streetcars all over the city. Let’s All Complain More i guess

samuel beckett was born on this day 120 years ago. astonishing to think that if he had survived, and could run 100m in 9.57 seconds, he would be not only the oldest but also the fastest man in the world - together with his nobel prize for literature, an astonishing trifecta

I’m like if a boy was sleepy

New game is coming along nicely.

All the doctors on the Pitt are too attentive and noble. its unrealistic. for season 3 they should have one of the vaguely mean girls from my high school who went into nursing for no real reason

Decompressing this weekend by playing the greatest game ever made (Psychonauts)

<I’m wheeled into the Pitt> Santos: male, 36, at happy hour, now saying “tummy feel crazy” Al-Hashimi: 47% of men’s bodies reject modern IPAs. They’re too hoppy now Robi: the silent killer. Get him to surgery McKay <alone now, staring straight at camera>: I am the same type of communist as you

Actually funny April Fool joke

US castle doctrine is batshit but to the person who keeps putting flyers in my mailbox that has a "no flyers" sign: I Will Hunt You For Sport

Every cryptic puzzle I made for #Enigmarch this year!

spent a half hour chatting with a bank rep where we went in a few circles before it turned out the easy normal thing i wanted to do was only available in the mobile app and just didn't exist on the website

Just this week, a crossing guard in Ottawa died after a hit and run incident. The conditions that have intensified the need for crossing guards on city streets, like rising rates of assault and speeding, have also contributed to the work being more precarious than ever. thelocal.to/crossing-gua...

(Godzilla attacks Pittsburgh on the wall-mounted TV in The Pitt waiting room) DANA(looking through the plexiglass): Pinehaven closed last year, so that's all coming straight to us. DR. ROBBY: (grimacing, looking down for a moment, rubbing his fist against the back of his neck) Jesus.
