BREAKING WaPo: Brazil's right-wing Flávio Bolsonaro just effectively conceded defeat to the incumbent left-wing president — minutes after Trump indicated he would not intervene on his behalf.

It's even more angering to me when other trans people will see "cringe" trans art and say that it's "setting the community back" or "making us look bad". Actually transphobes are going to hate us no matter what, you're just miserable and want everyone else to hate themselves like you do

When trans creators are subtle, people dismiss the trans subtext as “headcanon.” When trans creators are loud and proud, people call it “obnoxious” and “cringe.” They just don’t want us to be represented in media at all. Because they don’t want us to exist at all.

This is why I hate the “it has to be subtle!!!” Critique of queer media. The fact that we can’t just say what we are or what the character is is so reductive and constraining to so many queer writers. Don’t let cis people dictate how you show you identity. They don’t know what they’re saying.

None of us should forget this. Meta should be subjected to corporate death penalty and permanently broken up into small pieces.

It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.

Lula has been reelected president, Brazilian media has now called. An extraordinary comeback for the left-wing politician who trailed by 2 points in round 1 but managed to hold off Flávio Bolsonaro, the former president's son.

Game dev has gotten so much more accessible than when I was a kid. Used to be you had to either program a whole engine from scratch, or pay an exorbitant amount to license something like Unreal. You probably weren't making games unless you were a professional or on the path to becoming one.

Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

i listen to compilations of music from old consoles and computers and it's honestly overwhelming how many old ass obscure games with baller OSTs there are

I've been making a lot of GBC Deltarune sprites. It's surprisingly fun just trying to make everything fit into the system's limits, or at least as much as I understand them. You have a surprising amount of freedom with colors... which I guess is fitting for the Gameboy Color?
