I wish #lists could be used to compile similar posts rather than just users. I want to manage all of the video essay recommendations I've been making, but it seems my best option for now is a thread. So I need to make a main thread to pin to keep track of those, my business marketing, and game dev..

Am I the only person who thinks this is great? Like, “yes, we should have a variety of candidates in primaries. Let’s stop being afraid of what Fox News is going to say, they are going to say it anyway.”

I am physically, emotionally, and mentally going through it right now, but the good news is that after this weekend, I'll have time for game dev and game jams again.
Current Projects/Goals:
- Rhythm game sample in Godot
- Idle Garden updates
- Etsy Shop product design (more on this later 👀👀)
