FINALLY: a dating sim in Georgia with the creepy Nut

Two young women stand in a children's area filled with Georgia-themed rides. One is frightened by the replica of the Jimmy Carter Peanut Statue. The other laughs beside a nondenominational brown soda bottle ride.

Hi #TeaseYaGame 😎

Gay It Loud is a dating sim about Gen X slackers in a low-poly mall. Hang out, make out, buy 90s trash nobody needs!

Wishlist here! store.steampowered.com/app/4207560/

#GameDev #IndieDev #IndieGame #gay
A young woman playing a handheld gives you the winky eye. Above her, a vibrant logo reads, "Gay It Loud." In the top-right corner, a stylized tear in the canvas reads, "Only For PC." In a highly polygonal mall, a young woman named Verity reflects, "Here again..." A young woman is engrossed in a totally original arcade game called "Roger" about a man avoiding large frogs on his way to work. The narration reads, "She 'doesn't like games.' Right."

I'm an audiovisual thinker: I usually think in verbal monologue with hazy pictures. A WEIRDLY GREAT sleep aid for me is, as I monologue, I force myself not to think in mental images. All as I maintain a separate mental image of, like, a grove. It slows my thinking.

Try it if we have similar brains!

The thumbnail of this peculiar new blog post might make it look like Columbo is using his dog as a machine gun to shoot at genders, but actually, the dog is shooting them out.

What can a probing search through Detective Columbo's psyche teach me about gender roles? The answer is probably "nothing" but let's find out.

Ideally this new tech is supposed to make me more productive, but now I'm having too much fun customizing the experience of the tech, so it might be weeks before that happens.

My dear friend @fruz.quest is in a serious financial situation right now and needs your help.

I HIGHLY recommend her for sprites, BGs, CGs, video editing, UI, and writing. She's an amazing artist, but completely out of money and food. Not exaggerating.

Please donate or commission her ASAP!!!!!

Can't believe I forgot about this one.
Cover of the album "Larry Raspberry and the Highsteppers." It is an illustration of seven people's heads protruding from a single highstepping raspberry. Really wacky.

I'm on strike now with other ALTs (Assistant Language Teachers) working in Kyoto Prefecture High Schools via the dispatch company ALTIA CENTRAL. Our salaries, low at 240,000 yen per month, were cut this year to 210,000, and we can't sustain our lives anymore.

Please support us!

There shouldn't even be 10% this many tags on a video that's just one theme song looped thousands of times.

Highlights include "sleep hypnosis healing," "sicko mode," "music from mtv's golden age," "120 minutes," "xbox," "xbox 360," "travi$ scott," "rap/hip-hop" and "hollywood reporter."
List of tags for a YouTube video titled "Quantum Leap Theme 10 Hours Extended." The text block is nearly 600 words long.
