taxing the rich WORKS
NEW: The first two years of Massachusetts' millionaire tax has raised $3 billion more than expected.

And rather than driving the rich away, IPS researchers found that the number of millionaires has *increased.*

Deer every brand out there. If your online shopping is 90% third party marketplace with no easy way to filter it out, your website is now USELESS to me, and makes anything you sell feel worse quality and value by association.

An amazing Kickstarter backer, James, chose to “Become an Extra”. Our illustrator Adrian Iglesias created an illustration that will appear in the final game!

Is your "reinvented" GDC still in a country that randomly disappear people based on the color of their skin or what's in their pants?

Then it doesn't fucking matter you're still irrelevant, you're PAX without even the cringe'y ironic charm of dickwolves past
We're changing the game.

Now that the frog has gone to there new owner, I can share these original acrylic on canvas pieces that I painted last week.

I had a lot of fun painting these, and am looking forward to painting more animals when I have the time. #Painting #OriginalArt #Acrylic

@seabird-interactive.com Hi Seabird, what's the best way to reach out with feed back, tried out the demo and found a few problems I'd like to report.

If I have to explain to you why it's a bad idea to use a machine that makes shit up 15-80% of the time AND destroys the environment AND contributes to rising fascism and genocide AND puts brilliant skillful creatives out of work by stealing their work, then we're already speaking different languages

This is exactly what I was talking about near the end of todays' stream.
Streamers NEED to be able to control what ads are running on their streams.

Again, this doesn't apply to military ads, but also gambling/betting ads that could be shown to those struggling with addiction.
Reminder,

Twitch (and other platforms) don't allow creators to control what ads are run on their streams, videos/VODs, podcasts, etc.

PLEASE don't instantly assume we want this. We're very likely just as pissed off (if not more) than you are about this.

Help us yell at the platform instead.
