Chiitan loves all transgender people.
I've received a lot of criticism for expressing my support, but what's more important is that all transgender people live happy lives.

Found this video today! I've been coding professionally for about five years, give or take. I do enjoy tests. I'm a (usually) front end native iOS app developer based in Sweden.

Expression, abundance, output, joy - are all forms of resistance. Their greatest fear is for us to thrive. I'm not saying it's easy. I'm advocating it's necessary.

as an anthropologist, one of my academic specialisations is authoritarianism & revolutionist practice in response to it
one of my research foci for 3+ years was the social processes of a society's descent into authoritarianism.
my historian mentor once told me:
it happens slowly, then all at once.

Activism and protest over Gaza mustn't stop, even if the cease-fire holds.
We must not allow them to say things are “back to normal” without freedom and justice, and we must not allow them to act like this never happened, which is what they will do.
No justice. No peace.

Another commission from last year, this time a teastained pair of Nanny Ogg and Granny Weatherwax from Terry Pratchett's Discworld series. I love the witches as my first Pratchett book was Wee Free Men, so these were a joy to paint!

Palestinian babies are not spontaneously freezing to death. They are being deliberately subjected to conditions calculated to terminate life. In other words, they are being murdered. The cause of death is not the cold, but the genocide being perpetrated by Israel and the US.

After years away from game dev, I couldn’t stay silent about my people’s dehumanization. I made Dreams on a Pillow 🍉a game inspired by a famous Palestinian folktale about the 1948 Nakba.

Transphobes will never get what they want. Even if they erased every mention of trans identity or experience, we’d find it again, make it anew. Because transness is inherently human. It wells up. I wish we didn’t have to endure so much pain to exist. But we will always find ourselves and each other.

I want to make a personal appeal for the beautiful new game of Palestinian gamedev @rasheedabueideh.bsky.social. As nobody will fund a game about the 1948 Nakba, Rasheed is crowdfunding via launchgood.com/1948. I've been doing production advice on the game pro bono, and it deserves to exist.

75+ years of asymmetrical propaganda, and the New York Times finally cracks just enough to report a few truths. This isn't "progress," it's damage control.

Today marks 300 days since Israeli forces killed 6-year-old Hind Rajab, her family members, and the medics sent to save her in Gaza.
For months, I have pressed the US government again and again on the killing.
How they’ve responded is shocking.
