Burger Becky has personally helped my journey and helped pick me up at my lowest.

Her games are legendary- Dragonwars, Bard's Tale, Descent, Another World and on and on and on.

Many of you use her libraries without knowing.

Reboosting. Behold the first person to win a Space Invaders contest. Ever. A gamedev legend who happens to also be trans, and one of those who fought so us trans #gamedevs could make the breakthroughs we have.

I know we aren't cashed up, but we are legion. A buck from all of us would help.

just imagine this miniature homage to 1e AD&D is finished and not just a rushed dry mockup in a spare hour between hospital runs and food prep

Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit.

Wisdom is throwing the tomato at Jared Leto instead of casting him in things.

TRON was the Trace On command.

TROFF turned it off. Like Jarad Leto turns everyone off.

The sequel to TRON should have been TROFF.

Yes, I coded in the 1980s, fuck you.
