question for game journalists: what kind of things have you done to get into game journalism? did you start your own blog? write pieces to try to pitch to publishers? intern somewhere? how can i break into this niche?

Thank you to @kickstarterunited.org for creating these and getting the word out! PLEASE SHARE!

Calling all queer creators on itchio! The #PowerOfPride2026 Bundle is now open for submissions! Digital games, physical games, books, zines, comics, assets & tools— we're accepting them all! NSFW OK! We want to work with you to share your projects. itch.io/jam/power-of... Tell your friends too!

Seeing a lot of people sharing the Trans Continental Pipeline, which is good for those Kansans who can and wish to exit the state, but for those who cannot, there are other organizations you can support! Please share these as well! 👇

I don't know how else to say this. Please support Trans people. You have to go out of your way to support Trans people. Our rights, our health care, our lives are being stripped away in real time, piece by piece. Help Trans people on an individual level, and help on the broader scale. Please.

Pro tip: Roughly 45.3% of gamedev problems can be solved simply by not having human characters. 🐧🤷 #GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev

The Queer Games Bundle was a genuinely important and helpful resource for small queer indie devs in the past 5 years, it's wonderful that such a small team of volunteers was able to keep it up for half a decade and I hope it'll encourage other initiatives like this one to spring into life.

Crocus for #FebruaryFrost26! #art

Call your house rep and tell them to support HB 2540 which will increase the amount disabled people can save from $2k to $10k and remove the marriage penalty where you lose your only source of income if you get married regardless of how little they make. Switchboard: (202) 224-3121

If any 2d animators are out there looking for some immediate paid work, I’ve got something short and fun for you on a live-action short film about kids with disabilities in a hospital. DM me with your reel/work if you’re interested.

sometimes a quick sketch is so much better than the finished drawing could ever be

As a chronic over-worker who often feels they need to push beyond their own limits to “keep up”, I can assure you that it is path that leads to ruin. You will make better _______ if you slow down and give yourself time to rest. Work smarter not harder.

Pleased to report that the programming team's performance tests are going well, except for BLANK who is Living the Nightmare these days

Honestly, AI slop PRs are becoming increasingly draining and demoralizing for #Godot maintainers. If you want to help, more funding so we can pay more maintainers to deal with the slop (on top of everything we do already) is the only viable solution I can think of: fund.godotengine.org

I’m not arguing with no account defending AI. My grandmother lives in an area being environmentally compromised currently by an ai data center. I remember the color of the lake before they built it and the sludge I see in it when I go to see her. Shut the fuck up about “the benefits of AI” forever.

I almost forgot to share this, but I really like this little guy :3 #art #sketchbook

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.
