help me, my ironic love for "zero time dilemma" is turning into genuine adoration for a profoundly dumb but very very entertaining video game

had a few hard conversations lately, and... feeling a profound gratefulness for all the people in my life who have stuck by me even now, and helped me be seen, in spite of my difficult self.

This is the first article I've written and gotten published in a long time. Thank you to Artemis for the opportunity, and to anyone who takes the time to read. And especially thank you to Sunset Visitor for making a game that changed not only my life, but also those of many.
For our first November article, @lucafisher.bsky.social wrote a personal essay about @sunsetvisitor.studio's 1000xResist, his mother, cycles of abuse and domestic violence, and letting go of emotional baggage.
Mother Loves You
Or, the last article I will ever write about my mother.

Your art isn’t bad just because it’s not selling right now.
We’re in a recession and people don’t know when they’re gonna eat next, nobody can afford fun things because the economy is crumbling. It’s going to be hard a while.

Writing tip: Instead of "source," use the phrase "strange man."
i.e: "A strange man at Nintendo told me that they have a new metroid in the works."
"Strange men close to the president claim that he plans to fall down some stairs today."
"The strange man of all my problems."

I’m usually pretty zen about where people draw the line on what they support, but Spotify sucks in so many ways. They pay artists peanuts, push AI generated music and are running ICE ads. You could buy mp3s and CDs and could have music you own and can listen to offline without paying monthly.
Spotify is now running ICE recruitment ads. We asked them to stop. They ignored us. Let's show them what we showed Disney. No Kings, No Collaborators, No Capitulators. indivisible.org/cancel-spotify

Unearth progress!! Here's where I'm at with 2 weeks of focus on bringing Geena's core moveset up to par with the GameMaker version of the game (and then improving beyond it imo). I've made a wide variety of tweaks to how she feels to control and I'm pretty happy with where things are right now.
