I would so love if a national patron of the arts program became a thing everywhere. Culture deserves it, artists deserve it, this world is a shit and things like this directly make it better

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

Incision is an incredible game that nearly wasn't finished. But it was. I spoke to developer Smoothbrain to get insight on his story, which is a tale of stress, burnout, passion, and ultimately triumph. Let's talk about the making of Incision.

Quake is basically a cat simulator:

- Only possible interactions are attacking and rubbing against things

- Can jump ridiculous distances

- Can’t understand anyone

- Compelled to kill everything that moves, for fun

Posted this on Reddit and I've been getting reported for suicide watch all morning. For reference, people do this as a way of saying "kill yourself" without getting banned.

I can't imagine anything more pathetic than getting riled up about trans people literally just existing. Deeply cringe.

The 2002 live album And All That Could Have Been. I knew of them before that, but that was the one that hooked me. After that I listened to The Fragile and bought With Teeth day one. It was all over after that.

Two years ago, we stepped into Dogtown for the very first time.

Two years later, the shadows of intrigue, loyalty, and betrayal still linger. 💔

Because some stories don't end, they stay with you.

Happy Anniversary, Phantom Liberty!

So it's finally happened, there are rumors that I used AI on the cover for James Rolfe's new book, Gnome Cave! I did not, and I will never knowingly use AI in any of my work, creative or otherwise. Now I will break down how I painted the cover (useful tutorial maybe??) 1/12
