Still getting the last voice lines in but this is our winter jam game pretty much finished! cuteshadow.itch.io/those-stars-...

Mathematically, the earliest the Seahawks can face the Bears is the NFC title game. Which is really good news, because they lead the league in takeaways and our qb gets haunted by interceptions the same way that guy in The Raven gets haunted by his lost Lenore

ok it's up I'mma go dissolve my particles and become one with the infinite

A dear friend is Sbux union leader through Workers United and she clued me into 3 things. Starbucks has not signed a contract with the workers for 4 years. Starbucks has more union violations than any other company in the US. Shareholders are demanding they settle. Keep boycotting.

Rough vibes on this website today, likely because people feel Hopeless and Helpless Because Can't Stop It and No One Who Is Supposed To Is Trying To So Now We're Fighting Each Other™. I recommend activities such as book, or potentially instrument if you like instrument, or even do talk on phone.

How it feels participating in a visual novel game jam

American journalist and author, Chris Hedges, delivered a speech in 2013 on progress and collapse that still resonates today, with one part focusing on why resistance to fascism is a moral duty in itself. "I do not fight fascists because I will win. I fight fascists because they are fascists."

I did some enemy re-sprites for this!

A gift from a few years ago! My wife @mollifiable.bsky.social took two of my favorite games - #PaperMario TTYD and #LifeisStrange - and made a cute mashup ‘boxart’! #Pricefield

After lots of blood, sweat, and tears—AND EVEN MORE BLOOD—here it is: the full 40-minute pilot of EL GUAPO VS. THE NARCO VAMPIRES!!! youtu.be/O-zZqrdybGE?...

>NFL refs try to rig the Pats/Ravens game for the Pats to lose, almost forcing me to root for the Pats, to keep the AFC North race between Ravens/Steelers interesting >Today they rig the Panthers/Bucs game so the Panthers lose and force everyone to give a shit about tomorrows Saints/Falcons game 🤮🤮

‼️A German hacker known as "Martha Root" dressed as a pink Power Ranger and deleted a white supremacist dating website live onstage This happened during the recent CCC conference.

Keeping this screenshot on hand for whenever someone asks me for the 10min Rant About Old White Theatre Russians [and Also a Couple 'Muricans] or about one of my brain's accursèd, oft-sealed "endless black box of knowledge" topics:

Best thing I’ve read this morning, from a human rights lawyer in Mexico. Translation is in the ALT-text.

It's illegal for the president to relieve student loan debt. It's completely fine for the president to unilaterally decide to have the head of a foreign nation black bagged on foreign soil.

Do you like cover-to-cover 100+ pg vintage anime artbook archiving? How about when it's... Rose Confession - Revolutionary Girl #Utena: This is Animation Released days after the finale, this was once the only way to see the series artwork so clearly! emptymovement.com/threads/vint...

hey remember when a bunch of middle-aged drunk korean lawmakers climbed the locked gates to the national assembly to hold an emergency session after the president gave illegal orders to the military, all of which ended with said president being sentenced to prison

Energy to take into 2026 ✏️✨ [ #cuteart #traditionalart #sketchbook ]

Bill Watterson could do Sin City but Frank Miller could not do Calvin and Hobbes

There are many things to love about Rami’s top 10 for 2025 but this is one of my favourites.

That feeling when you're writing a character who likes birds, but you can't make her say "I like tits" so you have to google the scientific name.

God it is wild what swings folks took before the Hayes Code. The DAMAGE that thing did

the game I directed & programmed, Witch You Want, was featured in this 💖 we're bringing it to Steam very soon!

This is the post that inspired me to start working on the first draft of what would become my Etrian IV Original Lore playthrough. It took me over a decade to honor the original spirit of the games, but it was really fulfilling to actually see it come to fruition and pay off the way it did.

Not the same attack, but just showing there’s precedence for this post; www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn... The Oil War everyone was predicting last month appears to finally be happening as expected.

I'm not familiar with Steve Rude's work. I was also not familiar with his work 12 years ago in a London comic con where he asked if anyone would be up to make some sandwiches for the guards who hadn't been given a lunch break and him and I made sandwiches in silence Please help if you can

“Why are Americans mistrustful of AI?” asks the morning briefing thing I’m skimming while I “no” through literally a dozen questions being asked to me by a robot who stands between me and the person I need to talk to to schedule the x-ray that I really, really need

As promised, PMG has just donated $5000 to the Palestine Children's Relief Fund. We've made the donation to PCRF directly as our fundraiser on YouTube has now completed, but if we add the two figures together that's a total amount of $61,914.62. Thank you so, so much to everyone who participated!

To be clear, these weren’t ticket sales because Netflix set up the contracts of the actors so they wouldn’t have to pay them for theater screenings. We can tiptoe around the wording however you want, but this was the studio continuing to profit off a bunch of former child stars with predatory terms.

AOS is actually my loc hero

I remember a few years ago seeing a video about why more comics artists should try making visual novels and its a shame it never really went anywhere despite being a follow up to a popular video on saving time while making comics youtu.be/37HjhnnaGns

Only tangentially related but someone recently made a free open source RPG Maker Plugin for Godot: github.com/newold3/Godo...

Featuring a trans woman so prominently at his inauguration like this was an absolutely baller move by Zohran

shyly pokes fingers together 🥺

lrt Something that gets lost in the discussion of GamerGate is that there was, in fact, a collection of game journalists who operated as a clique (GameJournoPros) and attempted to guide discussion in a similar manner as Singal's peers. Worth asking what can be (ethically) done to resist those things

if you haven't read jezebel's 2018 coverage of the listserv where 400+ "left-of-center" transphobic "journalists" methodically orchestrated the current moment, it's a good companion to the TNN interview: www.jezebel.com/private-mess...

just one more thing… happy new year!
