Oh, I guess GOTY comes out in a week? Well when it does, buy it everywhere. Buy it for your friends and family. Santa Ragione don't deserve to go down like this.
Our upcoming game HORSES was preemptively banned from Steam, with no path to appeal. The game will still launch next week on December 2nd and will be available on EGS, GOG, Humble, and Itch for $4.99. Here is a detailed FAQ covering what happened: horses.wtf/BannedFromSt...

the only good thing about genAI is that it got me to really love seeing bad art, because I know a person put in time and effort, made themselves vulnerable by showing it to others, and is trying to improve. I value that more than anything now

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the bright and courageous trans people whose lives were stolen by hatred. Their absence is felt across our city.

We will honor them by building a New York where every trans person can live safely, fully and freely.

There's way less difference between D and R than their should be, and both ultimately serve moneyed interests.

And there is still a very, very large difference between supporting republicans and sighing before voting blue.

Be real. That difference *does* matter.

This was extremely well-answered by both of them.

Whether visiting or immigrating, anyone in the country should be considered under our collective care so long as they aren't hurting anyone. And the vast majority of the people ICE targets, aren't hurting anyone.
More of this please.

So the streamer Ludwig recently found out that one of his earliest regular viewers, who was trans, passed away and tonight he's doing a charity stream for the Trevor Project. So far he's raised over $46,000 in about 5 hours. www.twitch.tv/ludwig

Some expanded thoughts, now that the vid is officially dead in the water.

My niche is small, but the robot also actively despises content like mine. I'm also not willing to lie or mislead in my thumbnails and titles.

It is what it is, and my relationship with my work needs to change.

For the sake of my well-being, I'm going to assume this is the new normal and stop trying to fight against the algorithm. I accept my lot. Google wins.

I'll keep making stuff for the people who see it, and try to never look at my dashboard again after monetization is set up.

Any comments on the video itself on youtube would be super helpful to boost it a bit in the algorithm!
NEW VIDEO! A shorter one, but one of the more important videos I've ever made, so please give it a watch~

It's on the first 5 years (yes, YEARS) of making a game!
And yes I mention @blanksword.bsky.social but this is largely about another thing~
