I want Sam Fisher to grab me from the back in the dark and whisper snarky remarks in my ear 👀

i am tired of the world framing trans issues as “they’re not hurting anybody” or “society can tolerate them.” trans people are load bearing for a free society, not something to be tolerated

Another box. I wanted to paint something black and white.

Experimenting with textiles has been so much fun. Something you never get to consider in a video game is how something feels when you touch it. The raw pleasure of cutting, burning, dyeing, and tearing - it’s a blast

On it. It’s just something I noticed. I would say people who really like Rick Owens are probably into these kinda places.

Is it presents a sort of “ambient” lifestyle, which is stripped of obvious capital signifiers, which I think appeals heavily to GenZ. Curated items that feel found rather than sold to you. A nostalgic appeal to early millennia ephemera. Idk, Im just a millennial and Im not putting a value judgment

Ive noticed a new aesthetic Im gonna call plastic bag minimalism. Its features include white walls, fulbright lighting, and items arranged as if taken out of ones luggage or closet, usually arranged on very thin bare metal furniture without any additional labeling. The reason this might be popular..

Nowadays all I do is complete objectives like “return spectrum modem”

Chris 🎃 DevPods.gg gamedev community @chrisdeleon.bsky.social · Sep 6

wait how tf did we know where to throw this

"install covert modem" is all it said

we could throw it once and not pick it up again. nothing in the UI or environment made clear it's for that screen, not the server underground etc

I learned it from shil. did shil maybe just tell all of you guys too

goldeneye 64 game covert modem installed thrown on screen by brick wall.

objectives screen lists "install covert modem."

Trying to make conceptual sculptures in the air, with the body, and visualize the object in space before making it, rather than drawing it first

Getting served PSX style AI bullshit on my feed really pissed me off, man. But it’s a great reminder that intentionality is key in all things.
