posted this a year ago today and way too many cis people still seem to have not gotten the message

right wing bigots have admitted - the “trans women in bathrooms” issue - the “trans women in sports” issue and - the “trans kids getting surgery” issue were all MADE UP TO TAKE OUR RIGHTS AWAY are you paying attention?

I love how spam game adverts are like: "Play the most addicting game of the year" with a picture of a hyper-realistic super model. When in reality: the most addicting game of the year is some pixellated mess with 8bit music. If the game looks that realistic, we didn't have the time to make it fun!

I was tempted to pirate HP, curiosity and all that. But @jessiegender.bsky.social is right - think of the amount of times HBO commented on GOT leaks and downloads, just as an example. They DO track these things, and even that drives interest. Let this show die. Trans people deserve better.

E. Working on a feature that should make exploration a bit more interesting. Maps now start mostly blank (aside from major landmarks like mountains and the sea) They will fill in as you visit locations. I guess my game now has a TTP speedrun🤭 #gamedev #indiedev #monstertaming #monstertamer #planetV

I saw a tiktok of Restore Britain and abortion preaching on my high street 😠 part of me wanted to go fight/argue but couldn't find them. What I did give was a guy giving 2 homeless guys a sandwich and then another lady doing the same 💚 People are alright actually

Finished Wolverine game. It was fun but it has problems. Liked the story, liked going into rage mode all really fun. Spoilers ahead Downsides: traversal is really weird, can only climb in certain areas covered in white paint.

Related to fart cloud stuff but I heard this guy "Inquisitive sniff" too many times. It should've been a toggle and given us detective vision. Would've worked for all the finding stuff and the mission where you can't see in a room and when Sabertooth crushes your eyes.

personal gripe, I'm tired of stoic male characters who go through something emotionally devastating, which is noticed by someone they're really close to because its visibly affecting him and they ask "hey, you good?" and you get a gruff "yeah, I'm fine lets get on with the mission" 😫 #wolverine

You can tell Control Resonant wasn't made in America by the way there are billboards all across Manhattan promoting awareness about climate change, unionization, and suing your employer for wrongful termination.

Been adding more battle animations. Mainly battle intro and switch in/out animations. Didn't mean for the wild monster to zip in like that but it's kinda funny, so I'll probably leave it in🤣 #gamedev #monstertamer #planetV #indiedev #monstertaming

I've tried Pokemon Champions and I really don't like it. Aside from being mobile microslop. It's slow, it doesn't do anything that Pokemon Showdown doesn't do and worse of all it's a solution to a problem the Pokemon company itself made. Training pokemon could be completely free #pokemon #champions

Sure, the game gives you enough free currency. But I don't want to think about multiple currency types or clicking through achievement menus to get more currency. I just want to battle Pokemon. Battling is still slow af with multiple ablity/move/item effects proccing one at a time too.

Great pickups for the 2nd Gym. Bagon has huge potential. Dragon Rage this early is 2hko most pokemon #nuzlocke #pokemon

I'll just use my fully evolved bug type to sweep the 1st gym, it's stats are soo much higher than the rest of my team. Has Magic Guard too. What can go wrong? it chunked most of my team, killed Shedinja but I survived #nuzlocke

Randomised Emerald Nuzlocke begins. Forecast is useless but will change on evolving. I don't know how I feel about even using Revival Blessing #nuzlocke

Saw a customer in store hanging around for awhile and they had really cool jeans. I still get nervous going up and talking to people, but I did it anyway, "I really like your jeans, where did you get them?" Look of absolute fear and slightly shaking. "I don't know.." "🤨 Did you find them or-" ...

"My parents got them for me, I'm too nervous to buy anything. I'm sorry I'm talking to much" "No need to be sorry, what are you wanting to get?" "Smash bros brawl, I really like Mario games" ...

@simco.bsky.social

"Excellent choice, it's a great game I've played it, there's a story mode.." "I know, I've seen videos" "I'll ring it up for you" I serve them and they thanked me for talking to them 🥹 still can't find the jeans but worth it

Reasons you can't kill yourself or disappear into the system void: a. New Pokémon game comes out soon. b. I'm sure there's a book you still want to read or whatever? c. You owe people art and that would be very unprofessional. d. You can always try again. e. You're friends would be sad. -👾
