ANNOUNCMENT TIME A new public build of PAX RODENTIA, a classical roguelike in which you play as a small field mouse, is now available on quiggy.itch.io. This represents six months of work and is a significant technological overhaul of the version I published in November.

ladies, is your programming - a field dominated by rich white men - driven by fashion trends - practiced as a demonstration of status - funded by vanity projects for failsons - filled with queers trying and failing to break even that's art, sorry

I don’t know how people could say that programming and art are completely different disciplines when both workflows involve going ‘This will never work, I’m a failure’, changing one thing, then thinking you might be the smartest person alive

A player found something very very very hidden

Penguin Colony 邸宅に入れた… 最後の浜辺にゲートのようなものがあって邸宅の前へ通じていた。 中には数体の影、たばこを吸う男、わんちゃん。 夜の地球儀、絵画には古のもの。 最後にペンギンは男の横に座っておわる。 絵画はジョン・ガストの「American Progress 」の女神が異形の者にかわったもの。 ヨーロッパ人が東から文明化して行き、徐々に明るい世界になる。 そして暗い西に逃げるパイソンや先住民が描かれてる。 追い立てられ植民地化されていった。 果たしてこの男は何者なのか? 徽章が微妙に見えるけど良く分からない。 そもそも人間なのかどうかもわからない。

to weigh in on the weekend discourse my parents are the most normie boomer americans you can imagine and i don't think they've been to a cheesecake factory in 15 years. it's all about smashburgers and woodfired pizzas now

i have almost as much malice in my heart for the designer of monster hunter scoutflies as i do the creator of starcraft injects

Dozens of blood alchemists in the Order of the Obsidian Skull have petitioned the shadowy cabal to stop the sale of its gorehounds to Lord Hellfang

Some hateful folks in the North End have their messaging blocked by flags and lead to a “Trans Lives Matter” chant

these people are protesting the idea of trans people, not anything that's actually happening. they have nothing but hate in their hearts.

if we're complaining about Mass Effect: it's fucked up that the guy who's in charge of all the Reapers is named Harbinger and the guy who's supposed to open the way for the other Reapers is named Sovereign

incredible that wireless controllers have been mainstream for twenty years now and only Meta has had the incredible innovation of "what if sometimes they just didn't connect to the console"

you can sometimes fix it by popping the battery out and putting it back in, and when that fails you can sometimes fix it by rebooting the headset, and when that fails you can simply sacrifice a goat and say a prayer to the dark lord because no one else is gonna be able to help you

an ad has appeared at my metro stop touting that polymarket has a 93% accuracy rate one month ahead of elections and i really want to know how that stacks up against other forms of electoral predictions that aren't based on fleecing people for money

"look at the Kalshi odds for this election" no. No thank you

like i would suspect that in the majority of elections it's very easy to know who's going to win. like i'll bet $1000 with any rando that janeese lewis-george wins the dc mayoral race, things of that nature

lmao fedex is currently claiming that by end of day a ground package will reach me. it's currently in manitoba. sure, jan

We built a system where the only way to reach the absolute top is to be a sociopathic piece of shit who is willing to remorselessly hurt other people on the way up and then we look at the people on the top and go "why are these guys all pieces of shit"

The reviews for caves of qud are so funny because they always have the most insane scenario you've ever heard but it is absolutely something that can happen in the game. It is never a lie

kinda funny in retrospect that the original mass effect was the last game where i was still trying to convince myself i wasnt trans and made a male shep

"the oldest and strongest emotion is fear and the oldest and strongest fear is fear of the unknown" wrong. the oldest and strongest emotion is horny, and the oldest and strongest horny is forbidden horny

Part of my literal job is to fly out to physical game studios to rescue and recover historical materials that might be endangered and put them in a permanent archive. @gamehistoryorg.bsky.social is a 501(c)3 publicly funded to do that, my DMs are open, and I'm free for the next couple weeks...

See now we're fucking talking One of the only weapons we wield in this fight is our money and attendance, and if everyone involved with an event says "I'm not going unless you stop using AI" there's only two outcomes: *No AI or No Convention* Conventions are made by and for the community
