Hi! A bunch of people have been following me out of nowhere without engaging with any of my posts. FYI I'm not going to follow you back unless I'm actually interested in the stuff you post, Idc if you think it's rude.
Feel absolutely free to use the same policy if I've followed you first!

Look, I know I wrote a game called COZY Grove, but I'm starting to think coziness has reached its moral limit blog.giovanh.com/blog/2025/10...

A composite of screenshots for the indie game Nothing to Declare, a Papers Please-like in which cute characters cutely go through airport security and are cutely taken away by security when they cutely have a bomb in their cute bags.

I've been using startpage.com for years and I usually find what I'm looking for

löyly @loyly.bsky.social · 1d

Wow yeah, kind of 😐 Though tbf they did tag it Political and not Cozy at least...

löyly @loyly.bsky.social · 1d

"Some Cozy games are problematic" = "All Cozy games are fascist"?

löyly @loyly.bsky.social · 1d

"Haha, nice satir... ffs"

löyly @loyly.bsky.social · 1d

"But also on this list is Rentlord"
Ooh I don't think I've tagged this one as Villain Protagonist yet

@goodtrailcams.bsky.social is an excellent new account.

I honestly kind of like it when someone shares their possibly smaller troubles with me - it makes me feel a bit... "normal"? Like I'm still part of life and can contribute something.

(I still accept such conversations, but I've definitely thought that and half-jokingly said it to someone (who got it))

Talk to ME about it if you can take a reaction like "GIVE ME YOUR BODY" 😂

I see a lot of people comment on their "backlog" of video games as a problem to feel bad about. Honestly? I love looking at mine. All the potential experiences! The anticipation! The out-of-my-usual-niche games waiting there just in case the right mood hits me! I want to swim in unplayed games.

I'd repost, but I feel like I'm just shouting into a void here at this point... Best of luck to you and your spouse 💚

I saw someone on here share an Umberto Eco quote about unread books being like a medicine cabinet once, commenting that this should be valid for games too, and I completely agree.

This gives me some hope that I might become a fiction writer yet 😆
I literally lol'ed, then got a little bit sad because I expect my partner's reaction to be a blank stare...

Easy to misunderstand when this is an international site and in many countries tenants getting interest on their deposits is completely uncontroversial.

As a Linux user, I nearly choked on my food 😂
(Apple also seems to hate people who don't want or can't afford to buy 100% of their stuff from Apple though?)

Nu Pogodi! Enjoyer @lameposting.bsky.social · 8d

Microsoft hates computers AND everyone who uses them, whereas Apple only hates computers, and Linux only hates the people who use them. In this essay I will

To fix the climate and stop the spread of billionaire-sponsored fascism and inequality? Idk, I haven't really tried to wrap my head around just HOW much a billion is...

löyly @loyly.bsky.social · 8d

I've been thinking that billionaires growing a conscience within the next few years is probably our only hope now. It... might happen? 😬

Thank you for acknowledging that it's not that easy for everyone... One of my latest healthcare experiences was like "Why don't you sleep more?" - Well Idk, why aren't YOU smarter? 😒 (managed not to say that even though I hadn't slept more lol)

I'll give credit where it's due: a majority of the @vangamegarden.bsky.social volunteers were masking. Also shoutouts to the single masked dev whose gaze I met over our respective respirators. He was tabling for Generation Exile so give it a wishlist

Generation Exile on Steam

You are aboard humanity’s first and final generation ship, a last-chance expedition now teetering on the rim of collapse. One step at a time you must rebuild society and the ship’s fragile ecosystems ...

Wow, that's even a very genuine wishlist from me, thanks for pointing it out!

löyly @loyly.bsky.social · 21d

For me it's like "honey this isn't even in the top 10 of the worst things I've been through", but weirdly that doesn't seem to make people feel better 😂

My illness isn't usually that terminal so I wouldn't know what that's like, but I guess it helps if you've been through a bunch of stuff before (and BPD probably is "a bunch of stuff" in itself)...
