Hey, uh, fuck ICE all the way into the ground, all of them, and you can quote me on that
Can't stop thinking about Iron Lung. What am excellent film that was! I do not own many movies, but I'll be buying that one so I can watch it again. Genuinely so happy for Mark that he managed to make it, and that it's seen such worldwide success.

BBC reporting that Andrew Mountbatten Windsor has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office.

There is no precedent for a senior member of the royal family being placed under arrest in modern British history. A seismic moment for the monarchy.

I really enjoyed Iron Lung! I haven't played the game so I can't speak to how authentic to the source it is, but without spoiling anything, I will say that Mark really did capture an Event Horizon sort of feel very well - uncanny, claustrophobic, well acted, and quite creepy. Recommended!

Anyway I am off to watch Markiplier's horror movie at an indie cinema and that kicks ass, my life kicks ass, see y'all later <3

This 100%

I have always, throughout my professional "career", utterly HATED the idea of these "hacks" and "tips" - all of them written by people with survivorship bias convinced that they have the one and only solution. They don't. They can't. Because every artist's journey is unique.
you know, when I still cared about follower count and shit back on twitter, I remember seeing an article with 'tips' for a successful art account. It said to never retweet other artists, only bump art once a month, only follow 'good' artists, so on, so forth. I tried doing that for months...

After 13 years, I finally released my game!

It's a cozy narrative game with light platforming, with one cute dragon! Works great on a Steamdeck; take it on the go or play on PC!

So happy. I released. Onto the next project. :'''')

I have been fighting with this one commission for a while now but it is finally coming along and still on time. I'll share if and when I can!

If I see one more person attempting to use "disabilities" as an excuse to generate AI slop I am gonna actually crash out
February 14, 2026 at 1:10 AM
Excellent point, and plenty of dumb AI defenders in the thread for you to block
Indie game devs, when you use the slop machine in your game, it makes it clear to players that you don't give a fuck and just want money.

Draw crappy but genuine art instead.

Didn't advertise it because the first stream of the year after a computer wipe was predictably scuffed, but still extremely enjoyable. Just did some yapping with my partner and my wonderful little community. Next week, work (and gaming) resumes!

After 13 years of work and never giving up, I release my dream game tomorrow. :)

Completely self published, as indie as it gets. Every day I put in 20 minutes, either on code, the art, or collaborating with others.

I hope you enjoy it!

I am sometimes asked how or why I do certain things in music. The honest answer is "vibes," which sucks, but it's based in decades of experience. I know what works, but I also know what won't work *as well* or what might be interesting because it's out of left field. 1/4

Debatt: Vänsterpartiet måste nå de unga väljarna. Genom att driva frågor om klimat, bostäder och ungdomsjobb kan man visa väljarna att en progressiv vänsterpolitik inte bara är fullt möjlig, utan också betydligt mer önskvärd än Tidöpartiernas repressiva högerpolitik.

I am never going to play Void Stranger.

But I am eternally grateful for its existence. I want there to be more games like it; games that do not give a single shit and just do whatever they want, regardless of whether people will like them or not.

That said - will she face literally any consequences for any of this? Of course not. The laws and rules are a sham, they're not for any of these people. They are there to be corrupted into oblivion, to justify gunning down protesters.
That Pam Bondi performance was physically hard to watch. Like, it hurt to even watch a second of it, and I made it through at least like 5 minutes of the Kavanagh debacle. What an utterly ridiculous individual. I hope Trump enjoyed that, because that was the only reason she did it.

Utterly awful.

HOW are people still falling for the Alt+F4 prank

Fascism is not - nor will it ever be - sustainable. It eats itself. That is in its very nature. They will all turn on each other.

as someone who's pitched recently I feel like the other half of the equation of megabucks live service games shutting down instantly (this does not apply to riot) is the publishing env has never been worse and so if you want more than a few mil you basically have to promise to be the next genshin
