I’m in a caloric deficit right now and last night I realized I can eat 20 slices of bread and 20 pieces of cheese a day to stay within my limit AND hit my protein goals at the same time. No wonder medieval peasants could work the fields all day, they were just making gainz

Btw, when I talk about adding women to the conversation (or any underrepresented voices), it doesn’t mean I want to alienate the other half of our audience.
It’s about optimizing strategies so we can serve a *larger* audience. I’d like to think this is a reminder and not a revelation 💖

I'm so grateful for feedback on Toward Dawn - as primarily a controller user, I missed some hits with K&M, but now WASD will work in menus and I'm also improving some mouse responsiveness (especially on the Ability Tree UI). Also more input icons, where appropriate. 🐺💕✨
