If you haven't seen my Black History Month Black Game Devs thread, please see below.

With the Steam Summer Sale going on, I'd like to do a "Juneteenth 2025" update.

What? It's still June ain't it?

I'll be updating this through the day.

For Black History Month 2025, I wanted to create an as-comprehensive-as-possible evergreen directory for Black Game Dev projects that could be referenced in the future.

(Yes, even and especially during [Steam] sales, lol)

We're 7 days into BHM '25, so I'll start with 7 devs.

Also don't forget that Songtradr laid off half of its staff when it purchased Bandcamp from Epic Games a few years back.

They ain't no heroes here.

Ah, it's that time of the year, when FB reminds me of my shitposting.

Not gonna age well this weekend, but I'm gonna rep my team anyway.

I'v not worked at Ford, but I have supervised union shops.

If this Patriot doesn't have any priors, it's likely that he got a "suspension pending investigation," which gives Ford time to consider discipline.

In a union, that's typically 1, 3, or 5 days off work.

Any more than that, he gets PDOs*

I haven't seen Mina on TV much, but she's got IT.

Reminds me of Jemele and Beadle.

Not just knowledgeable of sports but full of humor and charm.

Just saw Mike Schefter on ESPN say no one saw this coming. The Steelers organization fully expected him to come back next year.

They still own his coaching rights so if anyone in the NFL wants him, they have to broker a deal with the Steelers.
January 13, 2026 at 9:30 PM
At least he is leaving on his own terms.
🚨 🚨 🚨

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin has informed the team that he plans to step away from coaching, meaning one of the greatest to do it will take a break.

Pittsburgh has a coveted opening.

113 years later and Delta women are still on the frontlines — organizing, advocating, serving, and leading. I am beyond thankful for this amazing sisterhood, and the legacy that we continue to build!

Happy Founders Day to my Sorors of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc! 🔺

At first I thought this was a former WNBA player.

Nope. This was the woman who was asking me and my college days why don't we fall in love?

I mean, we didn't?

Sad to see Tomlin lose, but glad to see QAaron lose.

Happy for Ryans

Guerilla's HORIZON series is a prophecy.
Came to the sobering realization today that those of us that are sane are unwillingly trapped in a death cult lead by Billionaires that are all racing us to our doom because they think they can create God and they're willing to burn down everything trying
Data centers target rural communities for lower costs, not to create high-quality jobs, study finds
Local governments often tell residents that the power-hungry developments will bring numerous tech jobs to their communities. A new study contradicted that.

More proof that AI sucks.

Especially because of who designed it.

Highly recommended if you enjoy involuntary solitude, internet s**t posting, and hanging out the passenger side of your best friend's ride.
I have a question for the guys:

Would y’all practice financial celibacy, keeping your wallet closed either for the right person or till marriage ?

Man, no 49ers fans on #blacksky ?

All I see are Eagles reactions 💔
January 12, 2026 at 1:32 AM
I was glad when we drew the Eagles. I thought our trash defense matched up well against their trash offense, and had faith Kyle could put up enough points to win.

That trick play was the difference.

Fugly win, but feels good to get the W. Imagine if we were healthy!

Yo our secondary is legit. I'm not accustomed to this as a 49er fan.
January 12, 2026 at 12:18 AM
Usually I'm hard on Brock for those INTs but who he gonna throw to out there?
January 12, 2026 at 12:15 AM
Yeah, THAT is the playcalling I was expecting to see from Kyle.

But at the end of the day, you can have the best coaches (OC) in the world, you still need talent to execute.
Haven't seen that play in 2 yrs! Still works!!
January 12, 2026 at 12:01 AM
Have you ever been bored watching your favorite team in the playoffs?

After a weekend of excellent football, I knew we were due a stinker.

Was expecting a blowout. Instead, we have a team too injured to do anything, and an overrated Eagles team that's gonna get exposed in the very next game.
January 11, 2026 at 11:39 PM
It's reassuring to me that we are just severely injured, on our 5th, 6th, 7th linebacker on the depth chart. We lose our all-world TE. We have a practice squad WR who hasn't caught a pass since 2021 drop one.

But we're only down by 3.
January 11, 2026 at 11:08 PM
We are Kaepernick cursed.
The 49ers say TE George Kittle officially tore his Achilles.
January 11, 2026 at 11:04 PM
In the playoffs? Man might not even be back for week 1.

49ers are all made of tissue paper.
That's an Achilles pop for Kittle. I saw it
January 11, 2026 at 10:39 PM
That was an awfully huite montage of Philly they just aired on Fox.

We know better.
