Pokeymanz 1.0 is finally out! It's been quite the journey, but it's out, it's screen reader accessible, and I put out the source files for forking.

I sincerely hope that people have fun with it for years to come. I couldn't be leaving it in better hands.

I had a friend play through an early unfinished version of Chapter 5!
Their testimonial was "I am still thinking about it a lot and want to play it more and it's kawaii when toby is worried about if it's good enough"

It's the start of a new week, so you know what that means?
Go make your calls.
For those of you in Wisconsin, you must now also call up your State Reps and Senators about the VPN Ban Bill SB-130 /AB-105 and tell them to stop it.
The fight ever continues.

Literally the only thing necessary to update those 90s animes about a couple of dumbfuck women going around causing problems on purpose for the modern era is NOT giving them token boyfriends to counter the yuri allegations. It's the only genre where the sole needed improvement is a subtraction.

In 1996, Brewster Kahle wrote "Preserving the Internet" for Scientific American. Nearly 30 years later, it’s striking how many of his predictions about digital preservation came true—and how many challenges remain.

Unfortunately, Bluesky is unavailable in Mississippi right now, due to a new state law that requires age verification for all users.
While intended for child safety, we think this law poses broader challenges & creates significant barriers that limit free speech & harm smaller platforms like ours.

great reporting from @thefreeradical.org as always!
Over the past month, independent content hosting platform Itch.io has been systematically banning queer & NSFW content. We talked to creators about how this impacted them, and how they’re fighting back.

‘I feel violated’ - Queer Creators Lose Livelihoods in Itch.io bans
The recent Itch bans on queer and NSFW content have damaged careers and put countless people out of work. Though some are now on the verge of homelessness, they’re still organizing and fighting back. TNN delves into what’s at stake on the frontlines of the fight against anti-queer censorship.

Replaying "Deltarune" from the start knowing what we now know about the dynamic between Kris and the soul and paying close attention to unprompted reactions, it's strikingly clear that Kris is uniquely disturbed by Spamton. Even the Titan doesn't scare them half as badly as this muppety little fuck.

That's such weaselly corpo-speak to duck accountability. Trying to defend themselves by claiming they don't check what's being bought on a per transaction basis when the whole issue is them putting pressure on online storefronts to not make specific products available for purchase in the first place

a lot of the content up on the censorship chopping block disgusts me, and i find some of it reprehensible, and literally it doesn't fucking matter. you should be able to legally produce and make a living off weird porn and my "ick" shouldn't affect that at all. disgust does not create a moral value.

In Mario Kart World, the whole world is seen in a low-detail, but mostly accurate version from Rainbow Road. However, one location fell victim to the terrain simplification: Great ? Block Ruins has been flattened like a pancake.

Devoting thousands of words of cosmological worldbuilding to setting up complicated multiversal isekai shenanigans in order to do a crossover between my two favourite media franchises even though they're both ostensibly set in the real world and present day and I absolutely did not have to do that.

The director of Mario Kart 64 once bragged in an interview that players could put down 100 bananas during a race without them unloading. However, that is not the truth. The bananas start unloading far before that, at about 60-70 dropped.

Due to the forced diagonal-down perspective in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, a trick is employed whereby Mario actually walks faster towards/away from the camera than alongside the camera to create the illusion of smooth movement from that angle in particular.
