I'll be honest, I'm just never going to forgive anyone for not speaking up about Palestine but suddenly finding the remnants of a moral compass for one murder by the same fascism in their own lands. I'll tolerate them, I'll work with them, but it'll always remain a thing I'll think about them.

And there are other funding options out there - I was sharing ones that came out more recently and from other game devs (maybe I missed some)! 🙏
Other funds: WINGS, phantom friends, Midgame Fund, Draknek New Voices Puzzle Grant, Toge Game Fund Initiative, BIGMODE, offbrand, etc.
GOOD LUCK ❤️💸

Israel is still doing war crimes in the US-endorsed war crimes experimentation camps in Palestine. The murder drones tested on the Palestinians are now "battle tested", and the continued apartheid tests yield great insights in how to suppress any group of dissidents.

So, to clarify, spray-painting a plane is terrorism, holding a sign to support the organisation those that spray-painted the plane were members of is terrorism, but taking a foreign head of state hostage needs to wait for a press conference from the hostage taker for nuance?
Keir Starmer says he wants to establish facts by *watching Donald Trumps press conference.*
People said giving him a second state visit was a genius move of strategy - really seems to have paid off.
Special relationship - alive and kicking.

Israel says Merry Christmas to all of you, by beating up and arresting a Palestinian Christian dressed up as Santa to celebrate Christmas. That's in-between Israel's continued genocide, illegal invasions, apartheid, and ceasefire violations, of course. Happy holidays!

All I can think of this Christmas is that last Christmas, between 70,000 and 120,000 Palestinians were alive that have since been murdered by Israel's genocide. Over half of them were children. That's 500 to 1,000 children murdered per week. Or 82 during a four hour Christmas evening.

The games industry brings in 300 billion dollars a year. The guy who made DOOM gets his projects canceled, the guy who made Katamari Damacy is broke, everyone in your feed is begging for a job and there are 50 new games coming out on Steam every day all going towards buying Gabe Newell's next yacht
Keita Takahashi (Katamari, Wattam, Noby Noby Boy) has moved back to Japan, and says he may be forced to quit the games industry due to To a T underperforming.
He also says he'd love to work on Katamari again, and for someone to invest in his studio.

Remind them constantly that it's much easier and cheaper to get you in from the beginning.
Rebrand to a "AI Post production specialist" and watch Idiots pay you more because they think thats a new thing.

Valve has now rejected my complaint, confirming that "I don't like muslims" is a valid reason to leave a negative review on a game on Steam

It is an egregious violation for them to be held on remand - without trial or conviction.
