Y’all, I had a surprise bill pop up and I am $30 shy on it. A couple small donations and I will be set again! #MutualAid

We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

Inspired by @elle-loves-hugs.bsky.social .hack project to make a bunch of .hack themed Pokémon Trainer sprites. This is just a WiP for the time being. It is fun, been a while since I did any game sprites.

Tearing through the very fabric of reality into 2026 Let's do this.

If someone told me I’d make four drawings in less than one month, I wouldn’t believe it. — #art #frieren #jujutsukaisen #ranma

EVERYONE GET MORE PASSIONATE AND SELF INDULGENT ABOUT CREATIVITY AND BEING HUMAN NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In Where Winds Meet I drank from a mysterious pot labeled "do not drink" that turned me into a shibe inu, and then I found a nearby mahjong table with 3 other dogs and joined them for a round of Dog Mahjong. Hell yeah.

Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.

I know there’s a lot of people who need a lot of help these days, but what was done to that family was truly heinous, so if you have some room in your budget please consider helping them out if you can.

remember Adriana Smith, the woman who was denied care and then had her body used as an incubator due to Georgia’s heartbeat bill? The baby they removed from her is still NICU and her family (who is forced to pay for all of this) hasn’t hit the goal on her gofundme. www.gofundme.com/f/help-adria...

A lot of the time, "clarify" means the middle finger.

“Wow so you get to play games all day?” as a reaction to me being a game dev still has the power to make me instantly need a nap

At New Zealand's Kawaiican cybersecurity convention, organizers hacked together a way for attendees to track CO2 levels throughout the venue—even before they arrived. www.wired.com/story/this-h...

Good. More conferences should be doing this. Universal protections for all!

Surprise! We did a thing! In 72 hours, no less! Tea for Two took part in ArcJam to create a sci-fi horror visual novel, Stars and Silence! We're very proud to have accomplished what we did in such a short time! 💚 tea-for-two-game-studios.itch.io/stars-and-si...

BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling. 🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states. This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺

Patient came in with sore throat. While waiting for rapid Strep test result we glanced back at the Covid-19 RAT result: positive. Reminder that masking in health care makes sense, if you don’t want everyone in your waiting room to go home sick, your staff to get sick, and physicians to get sick.

This is your sign btw that you should call Mastercard

I misread this image so badly that I can only really hope to illustrate what I saw. ( Also a good excuse for an #art study )

You olds don't need to hear this, but to you youngbloods out there, I come to you from the future: when the news begins talking about ways to save money for the holidays, rather than getting you hyped to drown in debt buying shit, that means shit is WAY FUCKING WORSE than they are letting on.

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy

What the paypros are doing isn't about sex or wholesomeness. It's about closing a "loophole" that lets people make a living without having to depend on the gigacorps. They start with content that's hard to defend, then grow from there until blocking all small independent creators.

old pokemon game only has a boy protagonist? turn 'em butch

tetsuya mizuguchi truly, earnestly believes, with his whole heart and whole mind, that generic vocal trance from 2003 has the power to awaken humanity's shared consciousness and guide us to universal peace. The strength of his conviction is so powerful that it might actually cause this to be true

the mental load bearing can’t be understated

It still delights me to see people use this gif I made Like I see it on TikTok all the time #signalis

“tale of two cities” type juxtaposition here, like realistically whatever censorious social media hell we find ourselves in rn is totally unsustainable

LETS GO

Dorei to no Seikatsu is at the center of an arrest in Norway. The game is an infamous lolicon title from the mid-2010s www.aftenbladet.no/lokalt/i/PpK...

Translation by @8bitcyborg.bsky.social * Seems CSAM was found, then game * Police Chief: "This game is fully legal in several countries. In our opinion, this is illegal in Norway. Some people seem to have a hard time understanding that this is illegal material here" ghostbin.axel.org/paste/hdh7h

We don’t use generative AI at Strange Scaffold and I can confirm that a *lot* of other studios are not—whether indie or AAA. Get outta here with this normalization bullshit.

Anime, VTubing, adult content, table top, and videos games. So basically, anything fun is "high fraud risk". Got a complaint? Here's a list of their numbers. And a couple helpful links to contact other paypros. #SaveSpeech #StopPayPros stop-paypros.neocities.org anti-censorship-campaign.carrd.co

as the economy breaks seiso is going to be thrown out the window and lewdtubing is going to become oversaturated, esp with americans who just want to afford food

www.videogameschronicle.com/news/square-... I imagined trying to get through bug reports written by an LLM and immediately got an honest to god headache. What do you mean I can’t even go back to the person who wrote it and ask for more details because there isn’t one, but it can still make shit up?

Source familiar with MasterCard‘s internal workings: The company finds the censorship focus from consumers “profoundly irritating“ amid larger political issues — they want the controversy around paypros censorship to quietly disappear

I don't normally post about the job hunt but today it's a bit more soul crushing than normal. Be kind to those who are looking. We're trying but for quite a few folks, the 6 months+ of looking is taking a toll especially with what's going on right now outside of the job hunt.

We've collected a list of every local resource for food assistance we could find. These resources include pantries, free fridges, food banks, and free grocery programs by neighborhood or region:

Share and help everyone know about this!!
