I think this is worth sharing imgur.com/gallery/rule... The French police are trying to change the narrative around the protests, to make the protesters look like the bad guys

Regarding Trump's deal with Russia to buy their diesel, I just realized something: Russia is only sending a days' supply because it DOESN'T HAVE any more oil to send us! Most of their production facilities have been destroyed by Ukraine

I had an idea for a Halloween costume Take two pair of jeans. Cut the leg off one, sew it onto the other. Go around being distraught that you lost your 3rd leg, as though everyone has 3 legs. Would it work? Maybe it'll be fun, I don't know

Abbott made money off of Texans while we were freezing, without electricity, no water and dying. ✅Vote Gina Hinojosa for Governor! #GinaForTexas #AbbottFailsTexas

She puts MSM to shame!

Last night I turned down a #gamedev opportunity to work with an artist. He let it slip early that he was transphobic, and wouldn't put up with any discussion about it. Probably a good call on my part, but... could really use an artist to work with.

NO media 1000s are marching in DC to defend voting rights; 90 orgs signed on, Reuters sent photographers, but local media Bernie Sanders, AOC and Martin Luther King III attended Wa Post buried it A Black-led march is visible in DC only after somebody else reports it Repost the march they buried

First results of my heightmap system for my #gamedev project Settlers & Warlords. It's... umm, a bit much. Guess there's lots more work to do, even from this point

I'm still working to get height mapping working in my #gamedev project Settlers & Warlords. But I've just realized something: this won't work for swamp biomes, or ocean biomes. Guess I'll worry about that later. I'll finish getting this heightmap system working. Players can deal with swamps on hills

At last, I finally have heightmap data generating in my #gamedev project Settlers & Warlords. Now I need to apply it to the actual game. Which is going to be hard. Right now, a player's position is decided before the map is generated. I'll have to generate the map before I can place the player now

There's no reason to believe that Epstein's operation isn't still going on

Doing #gamedev to try & get heightmaps in my game Settlers & Warlords. This is using a Diamond-Square algorithm. It's not associated with my game, but with this much working, I can apply it to my game

This week in #gamedev I've been working on a structure that lets players to dig through rocks. Now that it's outputting items, I need to add a wooden crane, to get the boulders out (they'll be too big to move by hand). I gotta decide if a pivot point can be made out of sticks... or just go with it

Oh, of course Trump would pay for this by cutting aids to poor families. Trump doesn't understand what people do when they have no legal options to feed themselves

It's the 7th of July, but our outside thermostat says it's negative 40 outside (it does that when it needs a new battery)

I think there are far too many people who don't understand this part (#2). You can whine & complain all day about businesses raising prices and lowering quality in their product. But IF YOU STILL BUY IT, your complaints mean nothing because they're still making money off you. #corporategreed

I think I've realized something: I'm trying to take over the world. But I can't take over this world, it's too hard. Instead, I'm making my own world in a game, with as much detail as I can muster - and then I'll take it over. In #gamedev you can do that

Seriously; all it would take is for Trump to actually listen to someone who's an expert on the subject. But no. That's too much for Trump. It would make him look weak to follow someone else's advice. So now he's guaranteed to look weak by having no way to fix the Reflecting Pool, a mess he caused

ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY THIS HERE,WAS,FOR MANY OF US, THE CELEBRATION WE NEEDED,AND A REMINDER, NOT TO GIVE UP HOPE ! THANK YOU, MICHELLE, AND PRESIDENT OBAMA...🎊🎉✨️ 👇👇👇

I'm starting to think the whole purpose of the Iran war was to drain America's Strategic Oil Reserves. Trump couldn't get his hands on it directly, so he had to force us to use it

At last, I can finally dry clay bricks under a Thatch Roof! Now we can... umm.. well, maybe work on hunting? That's not related to clay, tho. I need mining, so I need to dig through dirt... and mapping out ores is hard, so I'm still avoiding it. But... Guess this is what happens in #gamedev

Well, that was an easy fix. Turns out I had already planned to manage structure IDs, I even had a field in the database for it. I just hadn't... applied it yet. #gamedev bsky.app/profile/mind...

This post on Imgur sums up a lot of reasons why it looks like nobody is protesting in the US. imgur.com/gallery/top-...

I think the biggest issue we had as a country was that once politicians got into office, we had no way to remove them until the next election cycle. They can go 4 to 6 years working against every promise they made when campaigning, lining their own pockets, and all we can do is vote in someone new.
