I was gifted this amazing latchhook embellished pillow from a long time supporter and friend. I cannot imagine all of the hours that was required to make something so beautiful. I am at a loss for words. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

I went to a great talk last night at Lucasfilm/ILM which was in an area I’ve never seen before. Hiya #RogerRabbit and a steamrolled #JudgeDoom. Also a model of a #DeathStar trench, #xwing and #millenniumfalcon

OneShortEye made a full documentary about The Phantom Fellows, and seeing the whole journey laid out like that is surreal in the best way. From the first spark of an idea to actually shipping the game, it’s all there.

I had a good time talking to Ron and occasionally actually answering a question instead of going off on a tangent.

Reposting for the evening crowd since I don’t know when I’ll ever get anybody to hype me up this much again.
I did request that the thumbnail read “Designer… Storyteller… Dreamweaver… and also Programmer” but I guess Ron didn’t get the memo.

Wow. Maybe you heard about the AI agent that wrote a "hit piece" about a code maintainer when told they could not submit code changes.

Reminding you this Friday the 13th to never give up, choose the fastest councilors, get the knife, prioritize saving campers, in cabins, stand in the middle, hold down, then left or right to dodge and only attack after Jason's second attack. Good luck!

For those who don’t know, the fish bucket graphic on the monitor is from @juliaminamata.bsky.social’s game The Crimson Diamond. While you can’t actually play it on a 286, it does have beautiful period accurate EGA graphics and MT-32 soundtrack, playable on modern systems! www.thecrimsondiamond.com
