rather than trying to take it too seriously. I have the highest respect for people who do this for a living. I’m fortunate enough to be blessed with other means of income, which means I get to make content I love. It’s just a bonus (and a surprise) that anyone else cares. I’m really grateful.

“Some things are too important to be taken seriously.”

This is how I feel about making content/providing resources vs getting views. While I do make some money off of content, it rarely even breaks even.

Instead, I hope my videos and livestreams are always about putting something good out there—

Pray like it depends on God.
Live like it depends on you.
Somewhere in between lies the balance.

🫶 I really appreciate you saying that. I really hope my little corner of the internet can be a space for all people.

I think it is for a lot of people. For me it was the start of deconstruction, and asking deep questions. (And probably what kept me having a faith in the midst a lot of bad actors)

Tonight is going to be different than every other Lecture-Play I’ve ever done. Because I’m showing you how I ACTUALLY lecture in class while playing. Plus this is the first real session, so it’s a perfect time to join in. Come and learn something awesome!

I never know what’s going on in somebody’s heart, but if someone recants former statements, I want to believe them. I’m not really aware of all the incidents that have been cited tbh

I only like that bitmap reversed their course of action because I felt it was extreme.

Color scheme and those stars seem very Rosalina / Mario Galaxy- coded. We getting a Rosalina origin story?

At a faculty party last night, someone said to me, “You’re a Libra, so you naturally weigh every side carefully before coming to conclusions. Which is the most you thing in the world, to be honest.”

Logging in momentarily! The time is NIER

An update. I’m really grateful for this decision. As always, the worst thing is never the last thing (for either party). Let’s be excellent to one another. This was a learning moment for everyone, I think (even us spectating)

Monday 6th October 2025

Dear supporters of Bitmap Books,

Although I stand by the fact that Moses’ comments were ill-advised and insensitive, the whole thing blew up and was made much bigger than it needed to be. Moses has publicly apologised for any offence caused, as has the original poster of the comments who did not intend to cause this much trouble. I do not feel that this warrants an author losing his livelihood and ruining years of hard work to produce the book.

Despite multiple accusations to the contrary, Moses freely agreed to donate his royalties to charity. There was no coercion from me, however we both recognise that due to an increasingly stressful situation that decisions were rushed on both sides. I’m pleased to say that Moses and I have spoken again today, we stand together, and have agreed that he will receive 100% of his royalties.

Maybe I was hasty in my response, and I’m happy to admit to that. At the time I sincerely thought I was doing the right thing to diffuse an increasingly difficult situation. I will commit to donating all company profits from this first print run to the charity, Special Effect.

The bottom line is that is that Moses has apologised for his original comments, and will now be paid the royalties that are rightfully his.

Moses and myself have received a large amount of personal abuse and threats over the past few days. We hope that this statement will bring some closure to what has happened.

Sam Dyer, founder of Bitmap Books
