future historians debating whether dow jones, nasdaq, and S&P 500 were three separate gods of ancient America, or just three aspects of the same god

asha sharma going "we want 1 billion players a day" a nice reminder that these execs are fundamentally incapable of understanding that their customers do not have infinite money or even just that time is finite. they just think you haven't been fed the right marketing yet to get you on board

Really bummed out today. Fortnite “nerfed” their audio visualizer—something I absolutely need as a deaf player—and now the feature is basically useless for me personally and I can no longer play the game anymore.

Now that June is done we can see how games industry layoffs are progressing. We can see that we had a significant number layoff waves in June, and the quarter was pretty bad overall. Quarterly trends are continuing to get worse on average (the white dashed lines) Annual revenue continues rising YoY

Me: Okay, there's been a thunderstorm, the heatwave should be over now. (New health bar appears) (The sun is now named 'Sol, Starflame of Regret') (Objectively the greatest piece of classical music ever recorded starts playing).

On behalf of all people who run crowdfund campaigns and artist stores, let me be the one to say it today: International shipping really is that expensive. It really costs that much. I know it's expensive. That's really what it costs. I'm sorry. I don't set the prices. But it really does cost that m

Five weeks until REAL HERO SHIT: HARDER THAN IT LOOKS comes out!! Countdown starts NOW!!! bookshop.org/p/books/hard...

It will never stop being funny to me that the street fighter subreddit has a much better, well reasoned ai policy vis a vis literally all universities.

1) This is amazing. 2) Russo was one of the co-founders of GLAAD, and the fact that this basic, powerful statement of pride and defiance is now unimaginable coming from any of the Gay Inc orgs is incredibly goddamn telling.

In case you missed it, REAL HERO SHIT BOOK 2: HARDER THAN IT LOOKS comes out 7/28/26!!! More info and hopefully a book launch event to come!

Everybody thinks 'https://' stands for 'hypertext transfer protocol secure' but it actually stands for 'head to this place, sucka' followed by a colon and two laser sounds

One reason i think everyone should take an archaeology class is to internalise with tangible examples that there is no pure, natural past utopia and that antibiotics and vaccines are what stand between us and a 50% child mortality rate and scores of women dying needlessly during pregn and birth

the Library of Alexandria has burned 10,000 times and will burn 10,000 more before it’s all said and done

I feel like part of the literacy decline is cause when challenged, we quickly decide that well, you can't do this and you won't get it, so we'll make it easier which is terrible for learning because now there's no resilience to friction/difficulty because "no you can't be bad at anything."

I am not joking I want to play Shark Dentist, they could've gone with cute low poly art but nooo they went as high fidelity graphics as they could, a rare case where I think they made the objectively right choice there store.steampowered.com/app/3423280/...

"a goofy movie": a humble title. why it's not even necessarily "the" goofy movie. we simply, respectfully offer you this story for your consideration "doug's 1st movie": the hubris of icarus. the unbridled audacity to imply that this is only the 1st chapter of the Doug Cinematic Universe. pathetic

It's been 0 days since I instinctively went looking for the playback speed option in a live zoom call.

Gonna run late for a cookout because Mr. Davis requested snuggle time but that's just how it goes.

I feel like the photographer could have gotten a little closer tbh

As usual this is the energy to carry always and forever:

More poignant now than ever

Lots of my cool peers are doing it so I'm gonna do a retrospective thread on stuff I designed for Destiny 2 as a send-off. I touced a lot of stuff over my tenure, but mainly keeping it to some highlights and cool memories. Probably gonna add to this over time as i remember shit lmao

in honor of Destiny 2 i must share my favorite tweet ever that i can only find now by searching my Discord DMs with @lazerwalker.com

"Recovery is a spiral, not a circle. You may return to the same patterns, but you will break free." —Eris Morn

Hahaha, yes indeed! I don’t recall who plugged in that placeholder text, but I did build the initial layout for that map 😅 I never realized the placeholder made it into the API, haha

Still processing Destiny coming to an end. I did some of my best work on that game, and getting to leave my fingerprint on it was a special feeling. I knew it couldn't last forever, but it's still a surreal feeling. I'll probably wrangle more cohesive thoughts in days to come.

Like, fuck, man. Look at this bombast. The layers of lore and backstory and character and past archivevements and new development. What other games got arcs like this, or the time to breathe. The music, the characters, the bloody *scale* Destiny was so deep you could drown. And it felt so good

Grateful for the years I spent making beautiful things with beautiful people on Destiny 2. Sad to see it end. So glad I was a part of closing a 10 year saga that I began as a player. In the end, guardians will continue to make their own fates. And after all, life isn’t about holding on forever…

man still bittersweet about the destiny final update, destiny has been something I've played for a significant portion of my life, made friends through it, hell, made a career through it. there's a lot of good memories in there and I hope you like the love letters I made for it :)

"These are not mid-tier white-collar jobs…" Oh, so you've decided to automate hard labor and give blue-collar workers a break for once? "These are extraordinarily high-skilled jobs…" YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT SKILL IS YOU NEPO SILVER SPOON VULTURE

Thanks to all the replies and follows from my last post, it certainly resonated with lots of people! Anyway, this is Mr. Davis. He is 19 years old, I adopted him when he was 3, and he's been my constant companion ever since.

I find myself spending too much time laying in bed lately, not because I'm bed rotting, but because my elderly cat wants to snuggle against me under the blankets and I think "...how much longer before this will be gone?"

The only way you get better at predicting the future is by making specific, measurable predictions and then recalibrating to how utterly far off you are!
