Engraving two bullets with "this bullet only lies" and "this bullet only tells the truth" to really stump the FBI

Catching up on the Undertale anniversary stream and apart from the unhinged additions the thing that I love most is Toby interjecting every few minutes to very specifically credit all the artists and other devs who worked on very specific elements of the game

I just refuse to be gaslit by this moment. There is too much history, information and understanding. I know what my eyes and ears are telling me.

Same. I know this person and they are in a dangerous situation. If you have questions about details I can put you in touch.

RIP sweet prince. May you sploot forever more in the giant cardboard box in the sky 🫡

Hi! I was laid off from Firaxis this morning. I wrote leaders and civs for Civilization VII (NDA for now) and Deadpool and Storm for Marvel's Midnight Suns. I also wrote the award-nominated Hindsight. I'm available for full time, remote work starting ASAP. DMs are open: emmkid.info

Just remember, that discomfort you feel about accepting help or feeling like a burden is a manufactured social response of capitalism designed to keep us struggling to feed its unceasing hunger and keep us separated and weak.

I actually had to explain to someone recently that the AI that tells enemies in video games how to react to player inputs is NOT genAI and has existed for literal decades. they genuinely had no idea there was a difference. this shit has poisoned the well so bad.

The very first time I read "The Hobbit" as a child I thought Middle Earth was somewhere in Central America. I got "To Kill a Mockingbird" and "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" confused because they both have birds in the title. Is this why I'm so bad at Connections?

ChatGPT: no, going “Azrael mode” can be dangerous for yourself and those around you. Me: I am the avenging angel of God. The time of purification is at hand. Few shall be chosen. ChatGPT: you’re right. Let’s look at that again with the addition context that you are the avenging angel of God.

What's up with that discord mobile app bug where if someone posts an animated gif and you minimize and reopen the app sometimes the gif is strobing? How has that not killed anyone yet?

@alicia.social and the ParkStop Crew and Artists: thank you for letting me indulge in my desire to collect amazing theme park art…justified by an amazing cause!

Hey everyone, you’ve been asking me to run for office for a while, so guess what? I’m running for California State Assembly! Now, I don’t like asking for money, but we gotta pay for this somehow, and if everyone throws in $7 we’ll have the resources to run one hell of a race, so, uh, do the thing.

No cheating, post the last pic of your pet.

Genuinely happy that the 7 year long development time was spent working at a leisurely pace, spending time with their families and flexing their creative muscles - with no pressure to expand their company, deliver sooner or read a single reddit post. Smartest people in our entire industry.

who among us didn't fantasize about being an 11-year-old crashing 1,507 computer systems, causing a 7 pt drop in NYSE and being banned from owning or operating computers and touch-tone telephones until our 18th birthday. in the movie it was special effects but many of us are still chasing that dream

My interpretation of a tattoo found on the body of a 2,500 year old Siberian mummy. There's so much motion in the original design, dynamic movement in simple linework is difficult for artists today! This 6x12 wood panel piece is for sale. DM me if you're interested! www.bbc.com/news/article...

it's the farming equivalent of when people think the answer to our (valid!) payment processor woes is we just need to simply each make our own

I need to stop reading people's posts about the Itch thing because I just saw someone arguing with their whole chest the creator was clearly a billionaire and oh babies I have so much bad news for you about what it costs to run a platform of Itch's size (lots) and what their revenue is (little)

Do other languages have distinct words for "spice" to differentiate between "hot" (cayenne, wasabi) and flavorful (cardomon, cinnamon)?

I think everyone should be paying attention to what payment processors are doing to independent game developers right now. Games have been the testbed for a lot of the shittiest ideas going right now and you better believe this effort will broaden its goals quickly

We (Draknek & Friends - A Monster's Expedition, Cosmic Express, etc.) are looking for a Godot consultant to help us investigate and fix some issues with long load times for scenes on mobile. If you're interested, email [email protected] with your experience and rates. #godot #madewithgodot

twice today, when pressured, Stripe operators have said, plainly, that i cannot use stripe for the purchase of LGBTQ content. not just adult content, but explicitly LGBTQ.

#SaveSpeech Stripe's phone operators have been sounding much more aggressive the past few days, and every time i call they give me a different excuse for who the "real" reason theyre pressuring Itch etc. Some days they say its govt regulations (they wont say which) others they say Visa/MC

oh I can't wait for him to affect the costco hot dog. come take it

Washington Post: “Is fascism bad? The answer may surprise you” Teen Vogue: “Here are three fun tips you can use this summer to disable an armored personnel carrier”

I know a lot of people don't watch preseason games for the NFL, but I love to see the baaaabies!

haha this rules. folks don't know that AIs scraping websites accounts for like half of all internet bandwidth usage right now. Sites get scraped- ie, all the contents downloaded- over and over again, destroying/wasting their bandwidth, often maxing it out. It's like being continually DDOS'd

Visa says they're still drowning today! Payment processors think that we're not organized enough to keep this up but it's we either prove them wrong or submit to global censorship so it's. not much of a contest. Keep calling all 4!!

Keep calling your Congressmen about stopping KOSA and SCREEN dead in their tracks. Keep calling Visa, Mastercard, Paypal and Stripe.

Legislators are fundamentally metrics driven cowards. Flood them with enough calls and they will start panicking that theyre backing an unpopular issue Mention both KOSA and the SCREEN act! Demand that they act AGAINST these bills!

Hello friends!! I'm on the hunt for a Narrative Designer/Writer to do a bit of writing on the next game I'm working on! Good opportunity for those looking to build some portfolio credits - please read the form and fill it out if interested! Shares super appreciated! forms.gle/n86mcucCEmLA...

Why do we "kick off" a build?

Censorship is bad. Yes, regardless of what they're trying to censor. Censorship is the tool the far right uses to control us, to control what humans can do. Don't fall into their trap, don't side with people who will keep censoring things until there's only one very disgusting thing left

The problem with hard boiled eggs is that I eat them all

Speaking of my Hawks cosplay... #mha #myheroacademia #hawkscosplay

They can pry the em dash out of my cold dead hands.

I can't emphasize enough how much your direct action, calling these processors every day, has forced these statements and the news coverage to happen. It's so important that we keep going. We have been shown they can bleed so be like sharks. Keep up the pressure and more things will start cracking.

It me

when these companies try to claim this is about what’s legal or not, they’re lying. none of the games that were removed from steam or itch broke the law. financial companies are making subjective decisions based on what might inconvenience them aftermath.site/steam-itch-p...

i have an incredibly clear memory of hearing magic johnson was HIV+ when i was in high school, thinking, "jeez, he's gonna be dead soon," and then being increasingly awestruck that it never happened

The person who invented the video game joystick has disappeared, they down right up and left.

kind of wild to remember there was a world without hard borders and passports just a century ago

This is from a 2024 article, I wonder what this percentage is by now? mashable.com/article/x-tw...

Honestly people need to go back to using the term squick instead of assigning people morality based on kink

There's no story here, as the story points out starting in paragraph 11.
