Does anybody have any tips/lists for queer game devs (bonus points if they're using godot) I can follow? I'm a total beginner, but I am always looking for motivation/inspiration.

to echo what @ellaguro.bsky.social said yesterday gamergate is necessary but insufficient to understand the present moment. there were lots of points of convergence where the far right gained power in nerdy/subcultural communities and normalized its presence in mainstream american politics.

"Political violence" is a term that exists to suggest a moral distinction between "violence against politicians" and "violence by politicians" - so that one can be condemned while the other can be normalized. Obviously, no such distinction exists in reality: violence is violence.

I feel there can be no canon of games that doesn't *at the very least* include tiny Finnish demoscene games, Polystation and Gameboy hacks from the Middle East and LATAM, half-translated hacked ROMs from South Europe, mobile games from Africa, and the entire corpus of mini-iterative RPGs from Asia.
Gen X American game critics set up this myth of the history of the medium that basically only considers upper middle class white kids from the US who got a Nintendo for Christmas. We can't seem to shake it from the English language gaming community

Nach dem Saale-Orla-Kreis & Schwerin, will jetzt auch Essen eine Arbeitspflicht für Bürgergeldbeziehende.
Eine moralische Bankrotterklärung! Die Arbeitspflicht hebelt die freie Berufswahl aus und versucht einfach nur Menschen mit Druck in schlecht bezahlte Arbeit zu peitschen!

I have several Saves where I tried to experiment exactly when the game stopped classifying things as inc*st. Very normal, very wholesome.
I don't know what gamer bros need to hear this, but women and girls playing The Sims are not, and I say again, NOT, playing it like it's a dress up doll simulator. They're out there making Jigsaw look like a rolemodel. They make GTA Online players seem stable.

If your restaurant doesn't allow substitutions or special requests, either in person or online, that's as much as saying "don't eat here if you have food allergies or intolerances," & I'm like a gnat's ass hair away from saying the about anywhere doesn't clearly list all of their dishes' ingredients
Please allow me this indulgence in my nerdyness.

partner who loves you and whom you still love, but the connection has suffered like it sometimes does. I was born before marital r*pe was outlawed in my country. So you can imagine what might have happened to some demi people here. Kindly, shut the f*ck up! 2/2
Tw: sa
No, Brenda, as a demisexual, it means that I spend my life happily living without any sexual attraction until I form that connection, and it hits me like a ton of bricks. It also means that if that connection suffers, even just a little bit, my attraction just leaves. Explain that to a /1/2
with a guest. The parent had previously told me that I wasn't good enough for said guest because I wasn't meeting them often enough. Funny how nothing they say means anything at the drop of a hat. /2/2 #toxicparents
CN: unhealthy family dynamics
Throwback to the day when the parent Im now no contact with, had an absolute meltdown, because I was too busy to immediately help them (woth an absolute non-issue, easily fixable by themselves) and didnt answer my phone (for a few hours) because I was busy /1/2

People are often surprised when I tell them this: both Twitter and Facebook/insta/threads are now specifically engineered to downgrade, hide, suppress real journalism. If this platform is different, that's a huge change
Traffic from Bluesky to @bostonglobe.com is already 3x that of Threads, and we are seeing 4.5x the conversions to paying digital subscribers.
