Bummer. I hope more opportunities arise to make change. Games are art and deserve preservation. Ross put in the real work and deserved the win. #stopkillinggames youtu.be/HIfRLujXtUo?...

It's hard to be coherent every day when I spend so much of my time being afraid the world around me is heading in a direction that will leave nowhere safe for me to go.

Going back to check on twitter is like checking to see if an old acquaintance ever got over their drug-fueled psychosis. And when you get to their place, their welcome mat is a swastika so you don't bother knocking.

What is a flan?!

*throws goblet*

A miserable pile of 1 cup white sugar, 3 large eggs, 14 oz sweetened condensed milk, 12 floz evaporated milk, and 1 tablespoon vanilla extract!

*goblet shatters*

Writing "PJs" instead of "pajamas" removes writing 4 letters from your effort.

Typing "PJs" on a phone instead of "pajamas" saves only 1 key press.

I appreciate trying to boost a platform that counters Twitter's curated populist fasc algo. But it's a kneejerk to only one recent manifestation of persistent flaws in the medium.

AFAIK, boosting BlueSky now might as well be living in 2018 like 2022 will never come. How do we not repeat history?

It took me a while to get on Blue Sky because it kept getting pitched as "Twitter when it was good."

What era of Twitter do y'all really remember as "good?"

"Diplomat Simulator"

I made this short #Bitsy game back in 2018. It has since gotten the most engagement of any of my games by a wide margin. I credit this to its themes becoming far more topical as the years progressed.

Used to be common here in the states to say "how could Germany ever support somebody like that?"

It feels like such a distant optimism now.

Hi everybody!

I make art and games and stuff!

I was going to post some of my old art on here to get started but the app crashes every time I try to upload an image to a post so maybe later!
