Lost media archivist on tumblr named robindaydream found these screenshots from the canceled NES port of Caves of Qud

I don’t really know what I expect in posting this, but maybe some people see it and can learn from it. I’ll call it “lessons from an unwilling immigration attorney.” 1/

The risks of SARS-CoV-2 and other airborne pathogens can be severe, but the media continues to stigmatize Olympians taking precautions as "worried" and "extreme". We know #LongCOVID can affect anyone, even elite athletes. In the @thesicktimes.org today 😷🦠 thesicktimes.org/2026/02/10/w...

Roguelike Celebration has embraced this for years already, and it is *lovely*

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken. Hundreds of kids are still detained. We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

My beasts? Well, heh

Caves of Qud mutates onto the Nintendo Switch, February 16th!

why not try Wander Mode?

I hope everyone who is sharing this, aghast, will wear respirators (and properly). Measles is airborne and respirators block transmission of airborne pathogens between ppl—including those going into/out of detention centres. Don’t wait for the fascist government to tell you to b/c they won’t!

"View from the Spindle", an homage to my first Caves of Qud character to beat the game. he had an icy fungal infection on his left hand but i think the composition might've been better if it wasn't there... but thats my guy. looking back at qud north to south was fun to imagine #cavesofqud

by popular request i have turned the meme into a blog post, which explains how it works, links to the template file and includes a selection of examples from the thread #KirbyFraming

now I know what you're thinking: it's not that this website is run by nazis, they're just very incompetent. but you know who else is very incompetent? that's right: nazis. qed checkmate

the sphinx doesn't mean to speak in riddles. she's very isolated, out there in the desert, and sadly her communication skills were never great even before they deteriorated. also low blood sugar makes it worse.

caves of qud (ICE must be abolished)

Every one of my drafts turns into a fedpost. To keep it simple: endless solidarity with the brave people on the ground in Minneapolis

We are so fucking back Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Do thou, too, remain warm among ice.

I've been having a lot of fun playing Caves of Qud recently, and I thought I'd sketch some of my player characters from my time with the game so far. #CavesOfQud

Talking with my colleagues from around the world and thinking, as I do often these days, about this quote from my colleague @gregggonsalves.bsky.social, which articulated something that I think many of us know but is rarely said with this clarity. www.thenation.com/article/acti...

saw someone downtown in streetwear and knew I had to sketch Gra but I totally forgot to post this @ectafoole.bsky.social
