Amazing, even if Coumo had all of Sliwa’s votes, Mamdani would still win by an appreciable margin.
Savor this moment, friends.
They couldn’t buy their way to a win. They couldn’t racist their way to a win. There are more of us than them, and we fucking beat them. And we can keep beating them.

The new-old Halo looks really pretty, but I get how it could feel like Halo: Crysis Evolved. Glad folks get to nerd out about it.

Sometimes I think about restarting Morning Star development, but it’s a lot emotionally. I feel like I owe it to myself to make it a reality, even if it’s not in the form that I initially imagined. Other part of me wants to put it behind me and find something simple to occupy my mind.

Clouds have been on my list for while. Nothing fancy, but they go a long way for making the world feel less static.

I wanna make a game where you're a space custodian cleaning up alien gunk with some upgradeable Super Mario Sunshine cleaning mechanics and an art style inspired by the work of Guillaume Singelin. I'm manifesting it with this skeet.
