Okay, I just did this. You don't really gotta speak with anyone, you just have to read off the provided speech and it took me 12 minutes total because I'm a yapper. You can do this on a lunch break. You got this, I promise!!

Tomorrow, a House Energy & Commerce subcommittee is voting on passing KOSA & several other age verification bills.

We need to spread mass opposition now. We cannot allow this to pass. We have to drive mass calls into congress NOW

Hey, instead of yelling at people about not using Alt text, if it's really important with you, post the alt text in comments.

Accessibility is important, yes, but let's not forget that people have different levels of energy to provide them.

It is not always malicious intent.
i think the accessibility features on bluesky are great but because i don't use the platform often, i always forget they're there. whenever i post my art, i post the same thing on all my socials at the same time, so it's a lot of copypasting.

i could also post a nuclear take about how the indie rpg scene gets written off as slop even though it's barely a blip on the radar compared to other genres like roguelites because the indie rpg scene's so full of women and queer people. but i don't know if we're ready for that conversation lmao

i have never received a penny for the music i have on spotify (which wasn't even uploaded by me so i don't even have the ability to take it down). this is not a joke. i would rather happily let you download my shit directly from my harddrive on soulseek than you listen to it on spotify
If you can't justify the cost/inconvenience of buying the music you listen to, fr just pirate it. It's not any worse than Spotify.

when a poor person uses food stamps for a steak or homeless person spends $5 on a beer, it’s seen as proof that all poor people are so bad with money that they shouldn’t be given any, ever, for any reason. $77 billion out the window, and zuck’s legacy as a safe government contract bet is secure.

In Diddy Kong Racing DS, the message when connection is lost during Download Play is "LOST ALL CHILDREN". The cartridge is internally called a "parent" and the downloaded instances its "children". While this would make sense to the developers, it has the potential to confuse or scare players.

Scientific naming is great because you'll hear the latin name of an animal and be like wow that sounds so fancy and esoteric and it translates to "Goofy Tooth" or "Potato Ass"

for real though godot is one of the few projects out there that actually democratizes gamedev instead of talking about democratizing it
This has been a great year for the engine, but there are still a lot of things we would love to do.

If each person visiting our website donated €5, we could hire 5 more developers to work on Godot full-time.

to emphasize my thoughts on alternatives:
in order: purchasing on bandcamp, streaming or purchasing from qobuz, streaming from most other platforms (apple music, tidal, deezer, etc.), or pirating (if financially unable to afford other options) are all valid alternatives to supporting the spotify corporation.
